In my experience this don't happen too often here in the R1/A localities... but does happen. It just means no one here has contributed it yet... as this is a user made database.

Since most people that post here on the forum already contribute things they have... it is probably that no one here at the forum has this title at this time.

If you think you feel up to it I would suggest giving contributing a try. Just click add DVD --> By UPC as if you were adding it and uncheck Download from Invelos in the lower left corner of the screen. Yopu will be prompted to give the UPC and make the profile from there.

I would highly suggest that you familiarize yourself with the Rules for Contributing beforehand. You also want to remember to to make your contribution notes to the point but at the same time be sure to let them know where you got all the info from.

I know it sounds like a bit to go through... but it is something you get the hang of quickly once you get going... and if you are confused about any part of it just ask... there is many good people here that are more then happy to help.

This is a user created database.
Sadly this means that if a profile is missing you have to create it yourself.

The movie as such is in the database though (UPC: 024543012849). You may want to download this as a basis and make the necessary changes (UPC, Media Type, Release Date, SRP, etc...).
If any questions should arise on how to make specific changes to an existing profile feel free to come up again and ask.

Please contribute your work to the maindatabase when finished.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

One option you can use is to download the DVD profile for the same film, then alter it to conform to the specifications of the blu-ray (including UPC & media type) and then upload the corrected profile.  This is called cloning a profile.

The advantage with this method is that you may get a cast & crew list already made and then you will just have to check it against the credits on your blu-ray.

The disadvantage is that a number of profiles have imdb-cloned data in them, so the data may be incorrect.

Edit: I see Silence has already mentioned this method.
