Oops. New 2-Disc HK DVD for 'Lady Vengeance' Has Unsubbed Extras!

It'd be worth a fuss if the film were any good. As it is, Lady Vengeance is more than a tad underwhelming. After seeing the film, I don't think I would care to watch the special features anyway.

this dvd is already on its way to me. any suggestions on what i should do because if i knew it didn't have english subs on the extras i wouldn't have bought it. should i try to return it to yesasia? how are they on returns? any idea when a version of this with english subs on extras will come out?

What's going on with the announced trilogy Boxset ??? Any news ???

Are they going to fix the DD 5.1 issue that was plaguing the previous release. Supposedly, the DD 5.1 dropped out for half the movie...is that fixed on this version?

Yeah man, i want the damn Korean Trilogy Boxset.

Eh, I've just been waiting for Tartan's release anyhow. I'm sure that they'll have English subtitled extras included in the US and UK versions.

Though I'm more anxious to see A Bittersweet Life than Lady Vengeance. I think I should pick up a copy of Ji-woon Kim's The Quiet Family to tide me over until A Bittersweet Life gets a R1 release.

Don't quote me on this, but it looks like the boxset went into the backburner. Either that or it's taking longer than expected to produce it. It's still on some unofficial release lists (like DVDPrime's), but then again the Taegukgi Extended Cut has been there for ages when it's obvious we're not getting it.

Matt, as long as you don't open the DVD, you can get a refund, methinks.

i mentioned the extras licensing issue because tartan were specifically talking about how their announced specs for 'lady vengeance' had to shift, leaving them with less on their set than on the korean set, because of it all being so complicated and unworkable. the set - well, at the moment i will say what ive said before, and that is that the best edition of 'mr.vengeance' is the late 2005 USA issue from tartan : it looks somuch better than others in the comparison shots ive see, in my opinion. as for the other stuff : sound mix and booklet in the new HK set - dont know... just passing the word the release is botched at this point...

I agree with Chris, the film was a MAJOR disappointment, this coming from a big Chan Wook Park fan. I loved Oldboy, thought Sympathy was a masterpiece, and JSA is great as well. I haven't seen much other CWP stuff besides 3 Extremes, so I guess I need to get his older films and shorts sometime soon.

SFLV is a technical marvel but I simply didn't enjoy it. The lead actress is stunningly-beautiful, but honestly I didn't feel for any of the characters. Maybe I'll watch it again...it might take repeat viewings to really appreciate it.

You just know Tartan will hit out with a 2 discer in the near future. I rarely go out of my way to double dip for the sake of extras anyway.
