1. The US/international version, running at 95 minutes and 22 seconds at the HD frame rate (on the 88 Films blu-ray, this includes all intros plus opening and closing credits, including from Fortune Star)
   
2. The HK version (Jackie Chan's personal edit), running at 92 minutes and 7 seconds at the HD frame rate (on the 88 Films blu-ray, this includes all intros plus opening and closing credits, including from Fortune Star)
   
3. The Japanese version, running at 96 minutes and 55 seconds at the HD frame rate (from the 2014 Japanese blu-ray, including all intros and opening/closing credits).
   

• MKV, 17.8 GB, broken up into smaller ZIP files
  
• 24fps, yes TRUE cinematic 24fps, that's frame rate AND speed! Turn your TV's "motion smoothing" function off when you watch this!
  

• 2.0 LPCM mono, Cantonese/English. English is used during all scenes taking place in New York, then it switches to Cantonese for all scenes in Hong Kong. The score is arranged exactly like it is in the HK version even during the NY scenes!
  
• 2.0 LPCM mono, all Cantonese. I used the audio from the upscaled HK version from 88 Films to fill in for the NY scenes. The dialog, while kinda similar, is also a little different in how characters express things, which kinda makes for a whole new dynamic between some of the characters!
  

1. Honestly, I probably could have made the original audio from the Glickenhaus version work in some scenes, but it would certainly have not blended well in others (especially when the action sequences are edited to match Jackie Chan's version). It would just sound too choppy. Seriously, listen to the 3rd audio track on the HK version from the recent Shout Factory blu-ray (where they try to use the Glickenhaus track wherever possible)!
   
2. Also, the original Glickenhaus track is a lot more clean and "light", and less "raw" than the audio from the Japanese and HK versions. It just wouldn't blend well.
   
3. And lastly, the biggest reason I can't use the Glickenhaus audio is because of one single line of dialog: When Moon Lee mentions "The Fortune Teller" during the scene where all the good guys sit on a boat and talk about their plan to take down Harold Ko. Jackie Chan eliminated the whole "Fortune Teller" scene and replaced it with part of a subplot featuring Sally Yeh. But without scene, when Moon Lee mentions "the Fortune Teller" audiences will be like "What, what fortune teller? Did I miss something?!" 
   

• FPO (foreign parts only), for the Cantonese/English track
  
• All dialog SDH, for the Cantonese/English track
  
• All dialog, for the "all Cantonese" track.
  

Hello everyone, i found this magnific community/site searching for a particular Jackie Chan movie (Thunderbolt 1995), and like a lot what i found here.
I like the great work that is being done here and thanks in advance for all effort put in it.

Reboot 1994 tv series needs This specific d1 tape deck Bosch BTS DCR-500 to preserve it in high quality. Please help if you can.

Hi everyone. This looks like a very interesting place.

Is there a minimum number of posts one needs to make before being allowed to PM people?

Great work is being done here! I'm excited to join.

The 2.0 LPCM audio on Kino's BD of Abraham Lincoln (1930) incorrectly decodes as surround sound when played through a receiver. I took that track and duplicated the left channel to the right channel, so now it can be decoded as mono.

Available as just the audio so you can remux it yourself, or as a BD (postage, blanks, proof of purchase required).

Hello i'm glad to came here, for the sake of preservation

Hi, I'm a British person named Lorcan.

Who is an expert on archival of media.

So I love 1995's Ghost in the Shell a lot. It's one of my favorite movies, and it speaks to me.

That being said, I've never been entirely satisfied with either the English or Japanese dubs of the film.

The English one has a generally good set of performances with one or two standouts such as the Puppet Master character voiced by Tom Wyner being a standout, but with the Mimi Woods as the Major being very... misdirected, let's say.[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimi_Woods][/url]

Meanwhile the the Japanese dub has very good performances, such as the Major and Bato, but Iemasa Kayumi's Puppet Master in my opinion very inferior to Tom Wyner's version of the character.

So here's my request:

Using the DVD release of the film, could you put together an edit of the film that has Tom Wyner's performance of PM put into the Japanese dub?
