Scope
SR/SRD/DTS/SDDS
7 reels
--------
Nothing attached on Australian prints, however there is an 'M' censorship tag preceding the film which should NOT be there. Cut it off, we are not in England here and theoretically, if you're in the theatre watching it...it's too late to know the censorship then anyway. Cut it off.

John, did it come with DTS discs?
Posted by Blaine Young (Member # 3992) on 07-14-2008, 12:30 PM:
At the published running time of 154 minutes, all 7 reels should be VERY full.
Posted by John Wilson (Member # 269) on 07-14-2008, 05:33 PM:
Yes, DTS discs included and yes, all reels are relatively full.
Credits run about 6 or 7 mins.
OFLC (our classification body) has it at 152 minutes.

That's what I get for relying on old data. Seems all sources now are showing a running time of 152 min.

Thanks John. I just saw it, sounds stunning with DTS.

Distributed through Deluxe, prints by Technicolor
Warner Brothers
About 40% of Reel 7 is credits
Attached: Body of Lies/Terminator: Salvation "combo" trailer. ~~Note there was 0 black before Body of Lies, goes directly from green screen to WB logo. There was plenty of black between the two though, along with another green screen. Between Terminator and the opening WB logo for D.K. there was a ton of black (the WB standard) and a decent clear splice, at least on both my prints.
Enclosed:
- Righteous Kill
- Watchmen
- Tropic Thunder
- Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
- Blindness
- Day the Earth Stood Still
- Quantum of Solace
- Spirit

Sometimes I wonder what bizarre office politics result in the trailers that end up attached to films. While I can see the teaser for Terminator: Salvation being attached (the movie stars Christian Bale), the inclusion of Body of Lies leaves me scratching my head. Under no circumstances should any trailer OTHER than Watchmen have been attached.

I agree that they should have switched it around and had the Body of Lies/Terminator 4 combo enclosed and Watchmen attached since they are of the same properties (DC Comics).

If it was attached and not enclosed I could not (in good conscience) put it first on every single print so I can watch it 34 times in as many hours while hanging out the port window with the volume turned up.

Other enclosures: Bolt, Burn After Reading, Twilight

Because one of the theaters I'm at has been designated an "official George Lucas Premeiere Theater" (I actually saw the FAX) our DARK KNIGHT print had a CLONE WARS trailer enclosed which I was told we HAD to run, although they didn't care where in the trailer line-up I put it.
They even sent an inspector to the 1st show to check.
LUCASFILM has a major production facility about half-a-mile from the theater, which may or may not be a coincidence.
