No idea on running time yet.

Paramount is the distributor, through ETS film depot.

Sound is absolutely SRD and DTS, but should also be SDDS as well.

Prints were struck at two labs: Deluxe Hollywood and Technicolor Hollywood.

Two of my 3 prints had no trailers attached, the third had Elizabethtown attached.

The 'King Kong' trailers are Dolby EX (they flag EX on the CP650)
