Link to laserdisc - maybe someone can procure a picture of the back of the laserdisc cover. I tried but couldn't get it to save properly to read the chapters.

I wonder if the DVD releases remove the prologues and any of the two opening credits. I have no idea what the running time on those bits are either. Food for thought.

Even if all previous versions had recaps and credits and LD's and DVD's had them removed there's no way that adds up to the current time discrepancy of 27 minutes.

I'm not even sure if the 193 running time of that LD includes the credits and recaps which would bring the time down to probably 183.
