The Fearless Hyena UPDATED

[Scott_Napier]

Hi,

A few corrections on the Blu-ray comparison (http://dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=55007) for 'The Fearless Hyena':

1. The English 5.1 is from Fortune Star (not exclusively created, unlike for some other titles).
2. The previous Fortune Star master (HDCam) used on Splendid and Paramount (HK version only) is missing the kneedrop*. With exception to a handful frames at the Goodyear Films ident, 88 Films presents this uncut.
3. 88 Films is the first Blu-ray to feature the original red Hong Kong credits (missing for years, they've since been found).
4. English subtitles are newly translated from Cantonese.
5. Both English soundtracks are the same dub (probably not necessary to mention "classic dub", and only one exists to my knowledge).
6. Extra space: "behind- the-scenes photos".
7. The Japanese Blu-ray uses the Japanese title: 'Crazy Monkey' (and as seen on the Japanese version). Might be worth mentioning it in the title for the entry.
8. DVDBeaver has a review (http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film9/blu-ray_review_126/the_fearless_hyena_blu-ray.htm).

1. See this: https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=174400
2. Previous Fortune Star masters, namely HDCam (https://youtu.be/kGdtR3KwOhE?t=537) and DigiBeta (https://youtu.be/pb9pSqNRuzk?t=5477), are missing the knee-drop. The Japanese theatrical version on Paramount's Blu-ray (genuine HD master, independent of FS) is fine.

Disclaimer: I was involved in the production of the 88 Films release.
