DVD audio

I just bought Drunken Master on DVD. The cover is Jackie is a stance with a large ball in one hand, hid leg is up and bent. And the old guy, his name escapes me now, has Jackie's head between his legs in the lower corner of the box. The audio is weirding out on me. I have it set for catonesse with eng subs and every once in a while it switches to the english audio. I tried just the english audio with no subs and the subs were is cantonese, i guess. Is this a glitch in my disk or just some little joke thing put in there? I also have another question for anyone out there. Is there really all this cursing in the actual dialouge or is that just how the translators put it for the subs? Badass movie. I gotta say, althought this one has much more fighting throughout, i enjoy the second one better. The silliness almost turns me away. This is an amazing flick though.

I have dream journals about you. Pages filled with things about you.

I though this too when I first saw it. But then I read that some of the original audio track had been lost over the years and they had to switch to the english track when a piece was missing. Hope that helps. I have no idea about the cursing part though, but usually subs are far more acurate to the original dialogue than dubs so if it's in the subs its probably in the catonese.
