only getting the info from here https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Doome...lu-ray/300440/ and round timed my 2 dvd's 169 technically as some get the back wrong even old ADV

As pointed out that time is incorrect. It's user submitted. I'm pretty sure they mixed it up with the live action film which has that runtime.
Amazon has the same time so I don't really know what's going on. It's wrong though.

I repeat - 135 minutes is what Right Stuf lists and is what's shown on the back of Media Blaster's mockup for the o-card.

It's likely wrong but they haven't addressed it yet.

I'm assuming that's some sort of error? I can't imagine them cutting out nearly an hour, especially if it's going to be two discs. I've never heard of this being cut before.

I'm sure it's wrong, especially since they're retaining the 4-part episodic format and not editing it into a movie. Maybe they're ignoring the op/ed but I don't see that cutting off over 30 minutes from the runtime.

Media Blasters may have copied information for the live action film by mistake. I wouldn't be shocked if they were planning to release that in the future too. I suppose we're just going to have to pester a answer out of them for the wrong runtime.

I was unaware of the case mockup, but it has to be an error in any case. If it were 135 minutes that means it'd essentially be missing one of the episodes.

I asked them about that on twitter. I have not gotten a response back on this..

wouldn't be the first time the length is questionable. ADV overshot it by 6 but came closer than the 34 minutes right now. I'm hoping it's an error..

I submitted the listing, anyone feel free to change it, I just went with the time that rightstuf listed.

I have it on preorder so I'll know for sure whenever I get it.

Has this been delayed? My order is now listed and unavailable and will be contacted when it is.

If you follow MB on social you'll see they're just starting to get units for their November releases in, and DM isn't even one of them yet. It'll take a little more time to get stock out to stores. This is pretty common for them, to be honest.

So did I. Wonder if someone noticed the error and they gotta reprint the slipcover and covers.. Maybe. I'm hoping it's not censored if they are calling it MEGA... This Movie has had troubled history as it is on dvd. the first one only had the English dub on it and we weren't happy. The one most know has (had a sticker on it to make people know it had the Japanese track) both tracks.. I'd caught it on old N1 one or Network 1 . Indie station I got on the old big dish Satellite. Caught Traci Lords exercise video on that too.. But they showed some Anime. So I watched some from 94 to 96. But it went out of biz in 1997.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_One

I know we have a local comic manga store in Cedar Falls called The Core. Got one manga for 3x3 Eyes there once.. Rather expensive on BD now but only in Japan and no english subtitles ... But Right Stuff in Grimes IA.. Who knew.. I'll have to keep that site about..

Great, but no picture of the back put the whole running time issue to bed.

GeoffOliver · 11-12-2021, 08:15 PM

Would like to get this, but I’m holding out on reviews first. I haven’t bought a Media Blasters Blu-ray, and I’ve heard mixed things about their quality.

xXx$uicide_Ma$terxXx · 11-12-2021, 09:22 PM

Sold out already? Did they print 500 copies? The DVD I've seen looks like it's from tape so I probably won't pre-order.

Bobo1313 · 11-13-2021, 02:28 AM

Looks like its one disc, not two.
