Don't think these are released in US yet. Please add more versions if you have them.

Highlander: Endgame

Highlander: The Source
DE - VC-1 20838 kbps, DTS-HD MA 5.1 2127 kbps 16-bit, no English subs

Where is all Rambo (last movie) posts? I'm pretty sure there was many entries before. Here is one disc with a little better PQ than US according to caps-o-holic although worse audio.

Rambo (Extended cut)
NO - AVC 37999 kbps 24fps, DTS-HD MA 5.1 4610 kbps 24-bit, no English subs


Pretty much guaranteed to have lower bitrate on US disc so I throw this out here

I always trust them since they use BDInfo to scan their discs.

Well you didn't in this case as you have "no English subs" on Friend

And I've seen owners talking about this disc and they all say there aren't any subs. That's why it's strange the person who did the bdinfo on the korean discs says there are.

Haven't heard about a different pressing either...

The film auto starts i.e. no main menu before the film. It defaults to the English audio track with JP subs, of which can be turned off.

Have yet to watch the film. Going to have to pump up the volume on this one!

Tell us what you thought later. I have found some other 96kHz track being just "too much"
