DVD 2:
German VHS cut (1:14:56, PAL) in German Dolby Digital 2.0 no subtitles
no extras

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

With the VHS cut, is it also 2.35:1 PAL?

[Jerry_Dam]

sorry I forgot: the VHS cut is 1.85 4/3 letterboxed PAL

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Just three more things...
What is the runtime of the film on the Blu-ray?
Is the German VHS cut in mono, stereo, or surround?
The extras on the DVD - are they the same runtimes as the Blu-ray?

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Emailed Jerry to see if we can get some answers.

EDIT - Jerry did reply, but seems to have been busy.

[Jerry_Dam]

Sorry for the delay,

- the running time of the film on the Blu-ray is 1:42:45
(comes without the original 'MDP Worldwide' logo)

- the German VHS cut is in stereo

- the extras on the DVD are the exact same runtimes as the Blu-ray, except for the HD trailer version (2:11 instead of 2:16)

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

And finally added. Thanks!
