As some people may know, this film got a UK release eariler this week, and it had a English dub (done by British talent)

now im trying to add the cast info to the entry, and while I've got the staff entered i cant seem to add the cast.

This problem needs to be fixed. Just because Dreamworks decided not to dub this for North American release should be no reason to disclude the dub efforts by Manga for UK release.

Why would this need to be done? Is there no way for the staff to unlock the English cast on the title?

Frankly, I don't see why it was locked in the first place. Just because it is not dubbed presently (by whichever company holds the license) does not necessarily mean it will never be dubbed in the future (or in another region, as is this case).

Err... pardon my ignorance, but why are you linking me there? I've already seen that post (as dormcat linked to it earlier in this thread), and doesn't really have much bearing on my argument.

Because there are a lot of stupid people on the intarweb. Various people had already submitted English cast when there was no English dub.

Ah, I see... Some of the same people who like to enter in fake Naruto dub cast information I guess (or at least of the same mind as them) Rolling Eyes

(Sorry to go a little OT here) BTW, what is to be done about information that is put in waaaay too far in advance? What I mean by this is that I see ADV's dub cast already being entered in for Full Metal Panic The Second Raid. It's not licensed by ADV yet, and even if it were, there's no guarantee that it will be the exact same cast as before (same licensor usually means same cast, but stuff can always come up and a particular VA may get replaced)
