Drama queens complaining about the DVD or what?
I don't understand why there's so much complaining about the new U.S. release of this movie. Maybe because I hadn't seen the bootleg version so many others have, but the sound was fine to me. This was my first time ever seeing the movie, and nothing about the sound pitch detracted from the film for me at all. I heard people say the women sound like husky men and stuff...they don't. If that sounds like a man to you, you've got problems. From all the comments, I was expecting something awful, and what I got was nothing nearly as bad as people made it out to be. Also, how is the audio slowed down? If it was, wouldn't the audio track be out of sync with the film? This is what I don't understand. Whenever I look at the actors lips moving, the words perfectly match. Now I know it is dubbed, but the dubbing is on par with their lip movements in all scenes. Were the audio slowed down, wouldn't it be out of sync? That's what I don't get.
And people say there's 40 seconds of missing footage...well, I don't know what it was, but it must not have been consequential to the plot at all because the movie makes sense as it is. They even reinserted the one and a half minute that was missing from the U.S. theatrical release.
Honestly, I expected a horrible disc and I was glad to see people were being just way too over-dramatic about this...
