MR HOBBS TAKES A VACATION - Twilight Time (already out in Germany) - Blu-ray Forum

#Darren · 01-05-2014, 02:24 AM

Does anyone have any additional info on the upcoming TT release of MR HOBBS TAKES A VACATION?

It is already out in Germany - wondering if the TT transfer has something to offer over the German one?

Also, the German release has some extra features:

- Poster Gallery
- Trailer
- MovieTone News
- German trailer

(hopefully TT delivers in that area)

What is MovieTone News?

Movietone News is a newsreel that ran from 1928 to 1963 in the United States, and from 1929 to 1979 in the United Kingdom, the shorts ran before the movies.

I see, thank you. So it's not necessarily any new footage or anything from the movie, I suppose.

Often it is. e.g James Stewart attends premiere, that sort of thing.

Can you tell us what is in the movietone news?

I, too, am quite pleased with the German version. I can't imagine TT would add any other extras. I'd import the German version and save five or ten bucks, if I were you.

Indeed, I'd like to know as well. Am making an order from Amazon.de next week and may just add this to my shopping cart if it's footage of Stewart.
