If you’re looking for HK stuff, let me know,
it’s pretty much all I watch besides Lexx
dvds, I have tons, and have access to tons,
and lots of links for you to try. BTW, almost
all HK dvds are non-region coded and ntsc
format, and will play on Japanese, US and
Canadian players with no problems. The UK
dvd players have a pal signal, but some of
the Toshibas and Panasonics convert them
for the tv. [img]images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img]
Cool. I appreciate it. If you have links, send ’em to my email in my profile, or IM me. I still need to get a new DVD player. I have one of the earlier low-end Toshiba models, and there are *horrible* compatibility problems with the Toshibas. I still don’t know how to go with multi-standard players. The Malata is supposed to be top-notch, but the multi-standards seem to be unpredictable when it comes to compatibility issues, so I’m skittish. I’ll probably end up just sticking with R1 players for the time being, until I can afford to have a couple players hanging about the place. Mine won’t play VCDs either, so there are a number of really interesting Asian discs that I’m losing out on owning.
What I *really* want, though, is an import of the Japanese film [i]The Ring[/i] with English subs. The only version I can find lacks any subtitles at all, even though the sequel features them. Odd. It’s supposed to be re-made in the US, directed by Gore Verbinski, which is going to suck horribly, but at least it might allow for a decent domestic release of the Japanese original.
