[Knetan]

hey,

in particular a directing credit?

Updated most of these credits.

A few odd ones to be added

e.g. "Bird Thanks : Goon Kei Yeung x" ?!
e.g. Chung Si Man - assistant director - to be added.


"Teqila" is the original English title.
The correctly spelt "Tequila" here has been stencilled on, as have the closing credits.

The film company Lung Cheong is listed here as Long Champion Intl Ltd. This should be changed as the English title.
btw, what about adding aliases to Film Comanies ?

And China Entertainment (Chung Wa etc) needs to be added.

I may be able to complete these additions later, as I am currently in an internet cafe.

According to the HKFA, "Tequila" is the original English Title.

Fixed 1 prod. company name and also "Logotized".

Changed writer.

Added 1 prod. company more, 1 prod. manager, sound, costumes, gaffer, assist. dir., makeup and haidresser.

Prod. companies cannot be "aliased".

*shrug*

Well, on the original LD which I saw in a shop, the title was "Teqila".
Looks like there are alt versions floating around.

Then this one should be changed. I hereby give 15 days notice.

Closing credit:


Maybe we should change back to "Tequila"? It is also a correct spelling of the word

*sigh*

As I said above, the word is stencilled on.
The title on the original LD cover was Teqila.
The correctly-spelled Tequlia should therefore remain as an alias.

Is it really worth going over this non-issue yet again ?

Actually, yes. At what point did we start posting laserdisc sleeve spellings (or those from any other media packaging, for that matter) as main database titles over actual, onscreen titles.

Those English credits do indeed look video-generated, but they are what appears on the actual film itself, not some sleeve someone once saw in a shop. To me, printer's errors, which is what this looks like, should be aliases.

Puzzled here, as I've seem to recall noticing others like this in the DB over the years, and wondering why what I saw on screen wasn't given precendence over what appears on the sleeve.

if nobody stops me in 15 days I will change the main title as "Tequila".
