Hi Steven,

just so you know, Amazon is not a legitimate source for us (no online store is) so we won't be able to add that release.

The Greek one will be added in due course though

2 combo (with "The Devil's Own") TV Spots

How long are these? Also how long is the film's runtime?

Any certain reason you're asking? The listings at http://dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=5227
do not specify the time of the spots nor of the film.

I wonder why it is that most listing at dvdcompare.net don't list film running times.

Many older entries are missing runtimes because we didn't specifically request them in the past, or the DVD review sites which we took the information from did not include the runtimes.

To make things more consistent we are not asking for as much info as possible for runtimes of the film and extras.
Especially for contributors who have the disc in hand, it would be very helpful.

Just one more thing. The audio. What kind of audio is used for the English track?

I don't know. How do I find out?

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

A display button on the remote usually shows the type of audio (Dolby, MPEG, LPCM, etc) and how many channels (5.1, 2.0, 1.0 etc).
If it's 2.0, please let us know if it is a stereo, surround, or mono track.

English Dolby Digital Stereo

Return to http://dvdcompare.net/forums/phpbb3/vie ... 86#p149539 to see all corrections.

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Looks like the Greek release is the only one with stereo audio.
Thanks for the info!

[Samuel_Scott]

I would guess this is actually dual mono. A lot of players incorrectly show dual mono tracks as stereo when you press display (including a couple of my own DVD players!).

If you listen with headphones, do you get the exact same sound in both ears?

I don't think I have headphones anymore. If I do, I'm not even sure where to look, at this point.

My Blu-ray player is a Region-free Toshiba BDX-1300. I bought it in February of 2013.

I just went up close to my TV. It has speakers on each side of the screen, and I placed my face
in the middle. It is probably dual mono, because it didn't sound like stereo.

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

OK, updated as "mono"

At http://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=5227 it says,

Notes:
Cast mistakenly lists the picture as anamorphic.

What exactly does that mean? On the back of the box, it says "widescreen 16:9"
but that doesn't say anything about anamorphic or non-anamorphic, does it?
Or does it? Please let me know, because I don't know.

Also, please remove this part:

Synopsis (0:10)

I was wrong about the 10-second section being a synopsis: it is the copyright warning.
I didn't realize this at first, because the box art is shown to the left of the warning.

Also, the running time of the film (1:30:17) isn't listed. You guys wanted me to give
the running time in order to list it and I provided it, so why isn't it there?

The case lists widescreen 16x9 (which many companies use to say anamorphic), but the aspect ratio is actually 1.33:1 so it is full screen which will 99.99% of the time be non-anamorphic (there as been very rare occasions where not).

Also, please remove this part:

Done

Run times are listed with the cuts at the very bottom of the page under the overall. It is there
