All nudity with women has been excised, with the drug lab re-shot to show fully dressed lab workers, and the nude masseuse being deleted. The score is slightly different in certain scenes, and Chip Taylor's song "One Up for the Good Guys" during the end credits is replaced with a replayed upbeat theme from the movie's score. Japanese Extended Version The Japanese version of The Protector can be described as "an extended version" of Jackie Chan's edit. Like many old school Japanese versions of foreign language films, it features vertical Japanese subtitles burned into the right side of the screen. The Japanese edit and Jackie Chan's edit have these few differences & similarities: All scenes taking places in the USA contain the original US soundtrack. However the dialog, music, and sound effects were mixed differently to match more closely with the Hong Kong version, as almost all scenes remain edited like they are in the Hong Kong version. Exclusive to the Japanese version, the scenes of Billy Wong asking a pedestrian where the bearded crook went and the African-American cop expressing his support to Billy were given an English post-sync dub with Jackie Chan's voice, rather than the Cantonese dub for the Hong Kong version. All scenes taking place in Hong Kong contain the Cantonese dub (although a full Japanese dub was also made). The opening credits are in English, and feature Sally Yeh's name The Japanese version exclusively contains the outtake credits Deleted/Extended Scenes Almost all of the Japanese version is edited to match the Hong Kong version, but it contains some scenes that were cut out of the Hong Kong version. Some scenes were given a different Cantonese dub to keep the original context of these scenes intact, as they were in the Glickenhaus version. These scenes are: Garoni & Wong's first visit with Superintendent Whitehead & the latter conversation with the inspector. The latter conversation was kept in the Japanese version, requiring a new Cantonese dub. Garoni & Wong talking about their plans outside the police station after their second visit with Whitehead (deleted from the Hong Kong version) Garucci & David Ho talking in their car after leaving the airport (exclusive to the Japanese version) Garucci & David Ho talking after Ko's press conference (slightly different Cantonese dub to change context) Garucci exchanging money with Ko at his office (deleted from Hong Kong version) Reception The
