The Blues Brothers (1980) UPDATED

[Brent_Reid]

There's a repeated shot in (at least) the US BD, described in these two posts:

It's apparently a branching error between the two versions, and is also on the BD included with the UHD set, so it's likely the same disc. The UHD disc does not have the error.

I only have the US BD, but perhaps members with other releases could check theirs?

This could be added to both current comparisons: https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=755519

What time exactly does this happen?

[Brent_Reid]

Ah, I should've anticipated that question! Now I'll have to hunt down my BD, so bear with me... and I haven't forgotten about White Zombie yet either!

In the meantime, what I can tell you is the repeated shot is possibly not a branching error but in all DVD and BD transfers of the theatrical cut:

It's probably worth noting in the DVD comparison that only the 2-disc 25th Anniversary Editions have the original audio track; the 51.1 remix is drastically altered:

Lastly, the German BD listing's audio doesn't match what's on OFDb, re the German Atmos 7.1 and mono dub tracks:

There's also a German 2-disc Mediabook (ASIN B07J3691H7).

Updated for now without the timings.

Thanks James. I will come back on this one - promise! I've already messaged a few people who have written about the editing error lately, but they haven't replied yet or can't find their discs either.

You haven't added the 2-disc German Turbine BD (ASIN in last post) and I've just noticed the UK DVD ad's missing (B000BM3Y3M).

There's a typo in the DVD footnote: "They has the best set of extras..."

How about adding a second footnote after the first paragraph:

Note that only the 25th Anniversary Editions have original theatrical audio. The later 5.1 remix is drastically altered with many new effects and substitutions, including different song takes.
