Brent, could you list the runtimes for these?

[Brent_Reid]

Argh! Do I really have to? With no BD drive it's a question of fast forwarding each item on my BDP; several times usually, when I overshoot the ending. I can certainly confirm that every one of them is present: I didn't just lift them off the artwork...

[Samuel_Scott]

Does your BR player remote not have a display button? Most will tell you how long each extra is?

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Argh! Do I really have to?

Don't worry about it then. I pasted the runtimes up there for you.
Will add to the database tomorrow.

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

The commentary, and the extras on the German release - are they all in French?
I assume the UK DVD the commentary is in English as it is on the US release.

[Samuel_Scott]

Any movement on these one guys?

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

I messaged Brent and he said "Give me a day or so." That was in May. I'll try again to see if we can lure him back.

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

I've asked Brent multiple times for confirming the language, but no replies here or facebook or anywhere.
I'm just going to release these from hold and place them as "unconfirmed".

[Brent_Reid]

Here at last!

The UK DVD commentary is in English, no subs.

I must've boo-booed previously, re the German BD commentary: it's actually in French w/optional German subs. All other extras are in a mixture of French or German, with German subs for the French ones only.
