im still intrigued as to why this was pushed back til July! What are your thoughts guys? do you think we will get anything new or just get the same film as everyone else.

Just the same mate. Apparently it was pushed back because they were unsure if they were going to use this cover.

the cover is now the same worldwide.

We now have the UK cover from dvdactive

I told you it maybe different Vanberch

i wonder how this does over here, jc seems to do ok in the u.k.
what will happen aswell....hopefully!! when scott gets bigger people will look through is filmography and notice The Shepherd so will be tempted to buy it

Or there'd look online then think twice

right nofear, i guess UK gets the best release now.

guys, www.fightfactoryfilms.co.uk will have a promo clip from JC´s training in BG for TS online in july. it will be in the vein of dolph lundgren´s MM promo clip. look at the website and check it out. the one that JC mentioned in his sony germany interview for TS! so sony UK filmed this with JC in BG!
cool news to me. maybe this clip will be even on the TS uk dvd included as well? because they even printed the sticker on it on the right.

did scott also film something with them in BG?

fuck, today i have bought the german version of TS for 19,99 euro. i could stand the pain to watch the movie in german as soon as possible. i do not understand everything in english. maybe i will like it better in german. i think my brother will love TS. he talks all of the time "when this guy from U-2 is against JC in the movie then it will rock. he do not know anything about the behind the scenes dramas.

cool great news im glad the u.k could be possible getting a good version!!
will be cool to see what training he did, this probably why this was pushed back

yesterday i have watched TS once again in german and on a much better TV screen. i could play my RC-1 only on the computer where the picture was too dark. i couldn´t see all the action and details. this time i could and the dop lightened not too dark. i blamed him but i take this critic back but he wasn´t good at all on all his work. bad cinematography in too much scenes that feels like TV of the week but i liked the movie more now. there was a great scene when JC jumped in the bus of the bad guys in mexico with a gun. great camera moves, cool blood shoots and a nice direction but this was just a half minute short. i didn´t notice this scene so good before.

my first review was 6/10 this time i give 6,5/10

but i noticed the locations now more in detail. they were often cheap looking compared to UD and THC where the set and locations were better because of more budget as well. sometimes a dark picture is better and a bright picture also but sometimes this can make the bad locations and sets more visible that you can notice how low budget was. now i could see how low the budget is. JC´s lowest is years but i enjoyed the movie more now but only a bit more.

btw, my brother liked TS more than SIC, THC and UD altough he said TS wasn´t as expensive looking as THC and UD but he likes TS better because van damme is doing more action and MA fights. that is why he is watching him in the 1st place. that is why the order is better for him than replicant as well. i think if people do not know the TS bedind the scenes stories they will enjoy it more altough it´s far away from a great movie and he said there were two embarrasing scenes. the snow on the hill and the first shoot out scene from the us border patrol on daylight when it was raining on the border when they shooting against some mexicans who wanted to go into the us. that was just bad coordinated on bad locations and very cheap sounding guns but he liked the whole movie a lot. this scene wasn´t important at all. van damem should had deleted it. it´s the most cheap and amateurish looking and sounding scene in the movie. the guns are sounding like toys.
