Just would like to share with all of you. I just found out, UK's Kung Fu Panda 2 in Kung Fu Panda Collection don't have Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Masters. So, I think UK's Kung Fu Panda 2 should be also don't have.

Beware!

I agree with you. I bought the Boxed Set (HK Edition). I have already watched the movie 3 times - 1 in Cinema (Cantonese), 2 times from the BD (English and Cantonese). It is still very funny. A great film. Actually, I am surprised about the Director - she is so young. I also watched all the extras...Jack Black was fantastic.

well though i support ori bd, but sometimes its hard to define ori is better, cause its just matter of different manufacturer , one pay royalty to the film industry, another don't , but i say sometimes ori sucks like tv or anime, where they can cram everthing in one disc maintaining same PQ, AQ, and sell cheaper, but they choose not to, well in this case, oem manufacture wins hahaha 1 disc whole season of series or more, hahaaa...

and in a twisted way, by buying local oem, we actually keeping our economy floating, by generating cash flowing inside our economy and not sending all oversea hahaa... still... i dont blame people buying oem, i does so too last time, but i still likes ori cause its nicer for display on rack..

You think that way because your TV is still small and your home theater system is till got room for improvement. tongue.gif

To me, combine everything in 1 disc is worst idea. Who said TV or anime can't improve their quality?

As for generating cash flowing inside our economy, check northern korea, how is their economy performance? Import and export, to a country is all important. If only encourage ppl spend their money in their own country, is not necessary. That sometimes mean pay more for worse quality product. Look at our Proton. blush.gif

learn to read before re-quoting, i didn't say there is no room for anime to improve ?  u smoking weed kah?
import and export u talking about if u pay taxes and u buy from speedy then country's economy will be effected, not sure where u study economics, but parallel importing goods like bd is not only violating export import laws in some country its skipping taxes.

if u are such a patriot for supporting local economy u wont buy from amazon, but from speedy in the first place dude, so learn to read before judging and crapping in hostile, no one i asking u to prove anything,

ps: im using 1x 40" 3d led tv and 1x 42" plasma ,2x 24" ips monitors on my workstation, on a yamaha rxv771 7.2

How do you know speedy pay all their tax when their get their copy from other countries? whistling.gif

I never know that there is parallel importing issue in BDs except those Studios use Region to differentiate and restrict the use of BDs. Parallal importing didn't apply to every case. blush.gif

Since when import BD to Malaysia is skipping the tax (especially in large quantity)? If we skip the tax, then that mean our Customs Department must be not doing their job. hmm.gif

Kindly let me know which laws I am violating when import from US. whistling.gif I am newbie in laws.

For 40"+ TV, how can you see the different in quality when their compress those files when their burn all episodes in one BD?

Since when patriot must buy only the local products? If this is the case, I believe Malaysia don't have many patriot loh. doh.gif

yes " Parallel " importing does't not apply for everything but it does on banded or movies that's are classified deem for censoring in our country, and just because you are cheap skate and does not support our local industry by buy local produce products does not represent the whole nation are as selfish as you, if everyone thinks like you, then we'll be doomed, you are entitled to your deluded opinions not one really cares but at least show some respects for others.

40" you cant differentiate quality? you do use microscope to pixel peep at your movies ahh? thats funny, having larger than 40"s only you can tell compression ratio and quality different then u really needs to get your eyes check,

http://www.supnik.com/coprpar.htm
Parallel Importing Laws

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_Censorsh...ard_of_Malaysia
Blu-ray releases of censored films are not available in Malaysia. Such items have to be purchased from overseas and can be subject to random Custom's inspection, which will require an Application for Permit Exemption (Pemohonan Pengecualian Permit) letter to be submitted and approved.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_pictur...system#Malaysia
Due to piracy of music CDs and DVD/VCDs in Malaysia, all original musical works or movies on any format are required to have a hologram sticker with the words "Tulen KPDN & HEP Original". For films, a movie certification sticker by the Film Censorship Board of Malaysia (Lembaga Penapisan Filem Malaysia) bearing the signature of the director and the words "Pengerusi Lembaga Penapisan Filem Malaysia", a serial number and the films classification is required before it can be sold.
*
Why parallel importing have to do with censoring? There is 2 different issues. Is those Studios restrict other parties except Speedy to sell those BDs in Malaysia? If fact when we purchase those BDs from Amazon, since when I resale to others? Sorry, I am not seller of BDs here. whistling.gif

When you have bigger screen or Projector, maybe you will appreciate or prefer their don't compress those movie too much.

Those articles are interesting but what have it to do with the topic we discussed?

Unfortunately, FINAS only very active in Penang and not other states.

Stuck at Customs not necessary mean bad. tongue.gif Amazon CS just wrote to me to refund all shipping charge of US$64 since now already 3 days behind estimated delivery date.

Strange, Customs delay my parcel without any explanation. If really need to pay tax, the shipping charge refunded, I think, should be able to cover the tax, if there is tax lah. hmm.gif

good for you... maybe if further delay, who knows... full refund maybe?  brows.gif like what happened to me during BF last year, one of my delayed order shipped via iparcel (not sure if it was caused by delay at Customs) was refunded in full amount after estimated date overdue... so when i received it - it is a free new year present!  rclxms.gif

Amazon already give me option of full refund or send replacement if parcel not receive few days later. Judging from the value of that parcel, definitely need to return to Amazon if I receive this parcel after Amazon full refund or send replacement.

If only 1 copy or 2 copies, quite sure Amazon will ask you to keep it but in this case, it is 12 copies laugh.gif better return to Amazon since their will refund the shipping cost to us later.

Confirmed UK copy don't have Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Masters. Unlike US version when you play Kung Fu Panda 2, the menu will show Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Master as shown in below for you to select. However, UK version totally don't have that option.
