Regarding the actual Run Time, what else should we cut? Eg local distributor's intro trailers attached to the main feature? The awful up to 20 seconds long StudioCanal intro comes to mind, is it correct to remove them?

I guess it comes down to how useful data you want. If we enter a running time that is 5 minutes longer than the actual feature someone might think that this is a longer, more complete version of the film when compared to other releases.

Your OP said this data was some type of trailer. We do not include trailers and their run time as part of the feature film running time.

You got tangled up, re read his op. He made reference to trailers but not this particulalr title.

Gunnar
You aren't going to like this. But your opinion of what you think the runtime is, is just that your opinion. As such it belongs only locally. Your DVD or computer will factually tell you what the runtime is that is programmed on the disc.
That is hard verifiable data, not based on opinion. Sorry pal but that's the way it is.

In respect to the running time, as per the rules, you take the data from the disc itself.  As it's been pointed out this situation is not clear and not specific enough to deal with this situation.  The running time rule is found under FILM DETAILS, so to me the question what runtime to use from the two runtimes from the DVD is whether you consider the extraneous few minutes part of the film or not.  Without being able to view it myself it's hard to say, but without any evidence to the contrary I'd have to side with the OP, as they have viewed the disc.  For those who are going to vote on it, they too would be able to view the disc and vote accordingly. 

As far as the producers credit, I'm surprised this hasn't come up before as I'm pretty sure there are a few directing siblings out there that refer to themselves as one entity.  Aren't the Wachowskis credited as the Wachowskis Brothers on The Matrix?  If so, how are they credited?  I'm not at home right now, so I can't check until later.  Regardless I'm sure this isn't the first time this has popped up, IMO it would seem the best just to list them individually:

Tim Hildebrand
Rita Hildebrand
Jonathan Harris
Susan Harris

But if there is some previous precedent that supersedes this, then I'd go with that, but in my mind this makes the most sense in the spirt of the rules, since the rules don't specifically state how to handle this situation.

has the whole Larry/Lana thing came up yet? 

But that is also slightly different than this situation.... as they are listed by name, just together.  I'm sure this has come up many times before

I have seen this come up a few times and, in each case I have seen, the credited as feature was used which, in my opinion, is what the rules require.

I know I've seen it this way too but I can't remember the films or people to check. But, I agree that this is what the rules require.

I've given my thoughts, and my opinion, on this matter. I don't own the DVD and stand by my rationale based on what I've read in this thread.

I am not going to continue to discuss 5 minutes of data. Any more time spent on that is a waste of my time.

You seem to like to allow for exceptions, Kathy. I don't, the reason being that each every exception weakens the rules and the online database, as so painfully noted by widescreen forever. I try my level best to stop the foolishness but...

I remembered other people that I'll need to check: The Pang Brothers.

This will have to wait though, Thor just came in the mail  and it's the only Marvel movie I haven't seen.
