I have the Parent Trap/Parent Trap II UPC: 786936-286960. It's set up as a non box set, but since there are two movies put together it is a box set, right?  The movies are on one disc, the extra features are on another...I'm pretty sure the rules consider it a box set since there are 2 movies, but since it was accepted into the database this way, I thought I'd double check.

I'm willing to do the child profiles for it if it is, but I'm wondering how to do the disc id?  Since both movies are on the same disc, do I put the same disc ID down for both?

Thanks!

Single sided.

I have another question as well...in the original movie, Parent Trap, Hayley Mills' double is Susan Henning.  She's in the movie, but uncredited to give the illusion that Hayley played both girls for the whole thing, but Susan is the person you see the back of as well as one scene you see her face (the food fight scene).  The information of who she is comes from one of the featurettes on the DVD.  Would this be an acceptable source for her name... the interview is of her and Hayley Mills mentions her in another featurette as well.

Kevin, can you explain why it wouldn't be a box set?  I'm not trying to pick a fight, just curious.  The rules say: "The term "Box Set" is used to define any release that includes more than one film. The main examples are:"  Then it lists examples.  While this is not on it, they aren't listing every possible type, just a few.

This contains both movies, which to me, would be a box set.  Just would like to know why it wouldn't be?

Right now it is set up so the movies are seperated by dividers and right now I've just added full cast and crew to this and can contribute that, but to me, it just seems like I should empty this profile and create child profiles for the movies and extras (which is on its own disc).

How about making one profile for the two movies and one for the extras disc.  So just 2 child profiles.  Not a perfect solution but a closer one than is there already?

What is the point of creating a child for this profile when there is only one disc that counts?

Kevin:

It all depends on where you are looking. The rules are clear in how they define Boxset, right NOW the solution is less than optimum but....it may not be down the road.

More than one film...yes

Boxset by definition....yes

Very clear.

""The term "Box Set" is used to define any release that includes more than one film. The main examples are:, etc.

Main examples doesnot indicate that they are the ONLY possible examples.
<shakes heads> Where is there not clarity. Ireally don't see the lack of clarity, i see the possibility to INVENT it, but not in reality.

OK, she's technically a stunt double.  They didn't have the technology to do things as easily for one person playing twins in those days like we do today, so they used body or stunt doubles in some scenes to keep costs down.

If she is not credited in the cast list then I would not give even an uncredited with documentation, because we don't include stunt/body doubles in the credits except under certain very narrow circumstances
