Description
Big Trouble in Little China (1986), directed by John Carpenter, V2 hybrid remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including 5.1 remaster, original theatrical Dolby Stereo, isolated score, three commentary tracks, Jaboody Dubs riff commentary, and subtitles in twenty-three languages.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090728/
Video encoded in two-pass 13.0 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image. Audio encoded separately with Apple AAC for the highest-quality AAC sound available. Subtitles converted to VobSub and repositioned.
Note : Here's an update on a fairly recent encode, but I wanted to get the best possible version of this film out there. This is from the same master as my previous encode, but increases bitrate and improves encoding settings, and also adds the Jaboody track. It's not a huge upgrade, but I think it's probably worth it, especially for the improved grain retention.
We're back with some more Carpenter at his most entertaining, and this pastiche of Indiana Jones-style adventure films, martial arts, and comedy is one of his absolute best, a stylish romp full of fun action, impeccable practical and optical effects, and great performances, where it's truck driver vs. ancient Chinese sorcerer. Kurt Russell is a charming idiot, Dennis Dun is heroic, James Hong seethes with evil, Victor Wong is goofily eccentric, and Kim Cattrall is cute as a button. It's very light fare, but excellently executed, and has the distinction of being the first major Hollywood film with an Asian kind-of lead actor.
Wang Chi's fiancée, recently arrived from China, gets kidnapped, and it's up to him and his best friend, meathead trucker Jack Burton, to get her back. But this is no ordinary kidnapping, as dark forces conspire in Chinatown to break an ancient curse, weather-themed kung fu warriors emerge, and it turns out the Chinese have a very large number of hells. Luckily, they're helped by local magician Egg Shen, and venture into a series of tunnels and caverns beneath the city to save the day. Mostly the Chinese people do the day-saving, and Jack Burton fucks up, although he manages to do one thing right when it really matters.
This new Italian remaster is honestly very good looking, with nice filmic color, good skintones and slightly blue/teal shadows, excellent contrast and fine grain. However, apparently the aspect ratio was screwed up, but that was fixed in the hybrid remux I got this from by adjusting the display aspect ratio, so this is probably the best currently available presentation of this film. 5.1 track sounds good, original stereo as well, of the commentary tracks, I'd personally recommend the one with Carpenter and Russell, as well as the SFX artist one if you're interested, and of course the Jaboody track is funny as long as you don't mind the comedy Chinese accents.
Hot tip
