OK, working on the set. Deleted "The Defender" post.

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Added them all. Thanks!

The Legend II is listed as non-anamorphic and is missing the aspect ratio.

Also, for From Beijing With Love, shouldn't the Dragon Dynasty version be the winner? The German release has forced German subtitles and no English subtitles.

We decided after using Google Analytics and seeing just how international our readership is, that we would also select winners that were not English friendly, but would also note the best English friendly release too as an aside. This has been happening for about a year now.
