I have checked my local fye and target, and neiher of them had ong bak. they only had ong bak 2. Even amazon.com and fye show it as unavailable. Is it exclusive to a specific store or something?

The DVD release

SeanJoyce · 04-21-2017, 06:30 AM

I realize Ong Bak 2 has its own board, but it's barely received any traffic

Can any expert on the movie(s) tell me the name of the third dude that Jaa had to fight in that contest to win the respect of the village? The big, crazed wrestler/warrior guy covered in piercings and tattoos.

Pretty decent scrap, IMO.

Dragon Lee · 07-28-2017, 10:39 PM

just ordered the korean blu from nova media. judging by the inclusion of a director commentary, this should be the full uncut version. i hope it is cause my bootleg dvd that i got from ebay just turned 12. thats over 100 in dvd years.

It looked like there were no English subtitles on this disc from the listing. Which is pretty disappointing if true

Dragon Lee · 08-07-2017, 07:49 PM

ya i can confirm there are no english subs on this release. of course they tease us by having all english menus and rap music playing blaring throughout. which is a damn shame too because it is a port of the recent german release which is the fully restored asian version and looks 100 times better than the existing blu rays. a damn shame really.

Menteith · 08-09-2017, 01:46 PM

How is the new German BD? I heard that the additional scenes are only included in a bad quality? Also, is the full film in Thai or in German? I am asking because Amazon.de lists German as the only language track.

Damn that sucks. Was just about to order this, thankfully I checked the forums first. Thanks for the heads up!

Dragon Lee · 08-10-2017, 06:58 PM

judging by the korean disc, it looks like a brand new high quality scan of the full uncut thai version. only thai audio on this release but the german disc should have dubbing.

Lordhumungus · 01-14-2020, 08:09 PM

Can anyone please summarize the "best" versions to get of all 3 films as far as being uncut, and best A/V quality possible? Even better if you can recommend where to grab them.

English subs would be ideal, but I rip all of my movies to home media server and would be completely ok with adding subtitles as long as they exist somewhere (if you can point me to them that would also be greatly appreciated).

I realize the information largely exists in this thread and don't mean to seem lazy, but I get somewhat overwhelmed by the variations and possibilities and would appreciate the assistance.

Thank you in advance.

Menteith · 01-15-2020, 08:45 AM

I think the best versions are (and someone may correct me):
- Ong Bak 1: Korean or German releases (have the uncut Thai version with the best picture quality, but only Korean/German subs)
- Ong Bak 2: US release
- Ong Bak 3: US release

Brent Reid · 04-12-2020, 05:53 PM

There's a lot of confusing and outright misleading info in this thread. Just to clear up two points: the original Thai version, with its original score, is not available on Blu-ray anywhere. Currently, its only home video release is the 2005, region 0 PAL 2-DVD set from Madman in Oz. DVDCompare is your friend.
