How to Select Studio/Distributor When Contributing to the Database

[whatever_gong82]

I'm trying to add Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory Blu-ray (2010-US) with my Blu-ray dot com app, but it won't add automatically like it does with the others.

I have the UPC on the back of the Blu-ray, but how can I add it to my collection???

Please note, I have done what was suggested in adding the movie, but it has not worked for me at all.

What is the UPC of that version of Willy Wonka? Perhaps it's missing from the database.

Here it is:

883929466795

ISBN 0-7806-6456-6

ASIN: B003ZHR6PW

Very odd that I can't add it at all.

That UPC doesn't appear to be in the database yet. The UPC of the version associated with Amazon's B003ZHR6PW is 883929321001 which is this release:
https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Willy...Blu-ray/14690/

That release also has the same ISBN that you listed.

Are there any stickers covering the UPC on the coverart? Sometimes retailers stick their own UPCs over the standard UPC.

No stickers covering up the UPC on the back of the Blu-ray disc.

By the way, this also has a Digital Copy for either VUDU or Flixster.

One other thing that I forgot to mention: I bought this for $7.88 Saturday at Wal-Mart.

I've just found out something that may be important: the UPC/SKU for my receipt for Willy Wonka is different than what the back of my Blu-ray is. Here is the UPC/SKU from the receipt:

088392946679

By the way, the cover to my Blu-ray looks exactly like this one, including the side:

Ahh, Walmart. I've come across a couple titles in their $7.88 bins recently that looked like the standard releases but had different UPCs and came with digital copies (such as Election).

If you don't mind, please submit the info from your version so it can be added to the database:
https://www.blu-ray.com/products/?c=...parentid=21979

Once approved, it should be recognized by the app.

I did what you advised me to do a few hours ago before I had to get some sleep. I got a message that it should be approved by a mod/administrator soon.

Thanks for the suggestions and tips!!

I just uploaded Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory Blu-ray and it is now on my list of Blu-ray movies that I own.

Thanks again for the help Evil!!

I usually just ask to have them added in the Site Improvements thread:

We had a discussion pop up in the Kino Lorber Studio Classics thread last night, and I think we need some clarification, since there were conflicting examples mentioned.

It gets a bit confusing when Scorpion is involved. There are some releases that are actual Scorpion releases distributed by Kino. There are others that are recommended, and put together, by Walt Olsen for Kino, and released -- not just distributed -- under the Kino Lorber label.

However, there seems to be examples where this site has gone both ways.

Could the distributor Media Movies & More be added?
I can't find much on them, but they're the distributor on a Bruce Lee double feature I have and am trying to add.
