Wow, Joel has been tireless in his effort to get the ultimate edition of this film on disc. He says in the linked thread that he even reached out to large JCVD fan pages on Instagram to ask them to put out the call to see if anyone owned an uncut Kickboxer film print (so Lionsgate could produce the uncut 4K). Not a single one was willing to ask their subscribers.

The Dreamcast was released almost exactly 25 years ago. That's the difference between the end of Gerald Ford's presidency (what would have been Nixon's second term) to 9/11. So I don't know what time warp you fell into.
In real time it's been longer than it was from NES to Super NES. For the teenagers clearly doing most of the commenting on these Nintendo posts, they were in elementary or middle school at launch. Now they're in college.
How can someone look at all these different styles, let alone the ones that literally look like they're drawn by a six-year-old, and think, "Yeah, that's fine"?
Yes, and I believe the Anthology set also comes with the Skynet version.
It's a wonderful show and I highly recommend it.
Too bad they're trying to invent an unnecessary second season instead of filming the second book, Tai-Pan. It's about Western trading companies in Hong Kong at the beginning of China's so-called century of humiliation that followed the first opium war.
Both are pretty cheap. T2 is sort of infamous as one of the worst 4K discs, but some people don't mind it. I own both and there are pros and cons to each, but there's nothing wrong with the Blu-ray if you want to play it safe.
Here are the salient details, minus the fluff:
The haul had an estimated value of €47.5m, Mr Langella said, a figure which includes the value of the consoles and hundreds of licenses for the pirated programs.
They were "all from China" and were imported to be sold in specialised shops or online, Mr Langella said.
All the devices were fitted with non-certified batteries and electrical circuits and did not meet EU technical or safety standards. The seized games have been destroyed.
Nine Italian nationals have been arrested and charged with trading in counterfeited goods. If found guilty, they face up to eight years in prison.
