Time Tunnel - bonus feature question.

Postby James-Masaki_Ryan » 15 Jun 2020 11:34

From a user of Facebook:

[quoteI was just curious why is there such a big time difference discrepancy with a particular special feature "Irwin Allen's Behind-the-Scenes Home Movies [UK edit; no audio]" on the "The Time Tunnel" TV series on Bluray with a run time of 81:26 mins & the Region 2 UK release has this same special feature "Irwin Allen's Behind-the-Scenes Home Movies [UK edit; no audio]" at 51:56 mins, seeing that it is the same "UK Edit" & despite the PAL 5% speedup & 23.976/24fps differences it should not account for a 30 minute difference, is the Region 2 UK release's duration on that particular special feature accurate? Apparently the Bluray's run time has been confirmed as being the UK Edit running at 81:26 minutes with a couple of owner reviews over at Bluray.com, very odd indeed.

Revelation Films UK Blu-ray:
- Irwin Allen's Behind-the-Scenes Home Movies [UK edit; no audio] (81:26)

Revelation Films UK DVD:
Irwin Allen Home Movie: UK Edit (no audio) (51:56)

US Fox DVD:
Irwin Allen Home Movies (no audio) (Play All - 67:50):
- Desert (13:45)
- Control Room (5:23)
- Jungle in the Time Tunnel (1:56)
- Airplane (0:36)
- Control Room Discussion (0:46)
- Jungle (2:14)
- Ship (4:49)
- Office (0:57)
- Grand Room (0:51)
- Directing Actors (4:45)
- Panic in the Ship (9:30)
- Fire (2:17)
- Building Sets (0:52)
- Chaos on the Ship (5:17)

Does the UK releases have chapters like the US DVD? Is there any infication of what is missing/added?

The UK blu does have chapters, but only in the video stream. There are seven chapters in the 81:26 stream, grouping together one or more of the chapters from the US DVD. I've scanned through and each short film appears longer compared to the US DVD; I've included timings below in the form:

(US DVD) --> UK blu

I don't know about the UK DVD.

----

Chapter 1
- Desert (13:45) --> 16:33

Chapter 2
- Control Room (5:23) --> 6:30

Chapter 3
- Jungle in the Time Tunnel (1:56) --> 2:20
- Airplane (0:36) --> 0:43
- Control Room Discussion (0:46) --> 0:56
- Jungle (2:14) --> 2:41

Chapter 4
- Ship (4:49) --> 5:47

Chapter 5
- Office (0:57) --> 1:09
- Grand Room (0:51) --> 1:02
- Directing Actors (4:45) --> 5:41
- Panic in the Ship (9:30) --> 11:27
- Fire (2:17) --> 2:45

Chapter 6
