You may not be bothered by PAL speedup but some people are so don't assume everyone is as less discerning as you/we are . Personally it's not something that really bothers me but I thought it worth asking as the running time seemed so short. |

I think perhaps Mbarr was a bit excited at the cuts being waived.

When the film was first submitted by Fox in 1980 at 9564 (feet + frames) it was at 24fps because it's film. Every 90 feet equals 1 minute of film so uncut this would be 106.266666666 [9564 ÷ 90]. Then convert the end into seconds:[.266666666 x 60] = 15.9999. So, 106m 16s. As submitted, it was 106m 15s, a difference of 1 second (approx.). All the video releases are 25fps (PAL) and require you to add 4% to get the proper number. Arrow's uncut 102m 16s when 4% is added comes to 106m 17s (rounded). The 4% is approx. Also, it was reported that Inferno was released in France on 16Apr80 @ 110 min. but there is no other evidence of that. Could be just a misprint of 101.

The old 525/60 and 625/50 can rear its head again when it comes to extras in standard definition. Some US equipment refuses to play material that is not 60hz so US gear will sometimes play the main movie but not sd extras even if the disc is region free. Thankfully not a problem with UK gear Some tv's will not accept a 24p input |

Thanks. Can't believe I missed the official announcement though.

Maybe the discrepancy with the running time is a PAL source could have been submitted to the BBFC for them to rate. Thus HD running time will be the full running time with no speedup.

Arrow still lists PAL and Region 0 on their packaging even though it should say A-B-C. |
