It cracks me up how so many geeks get all pissy on these forums and try and insult people with shit like "go back to your XDCC channel noob", or other nerds who get mad if someone says they have already watched the movie. You fuckin losers really think we give a fuck if you got the movie 3 hours before we did? If you do, you should go get laid.

You're right, what do we know? it's your first post here and I think your the best person on this forum...




****sarcasim starts kicking in****

is this a comedy or drama? never heard of it.

Watched the whole movie and thought it was absolutely awesome. The scene shown in the jpg's is a scene in a dimly lit bar so hence the picture is as bright as a dimly lit bar. I don't know what the sample looks like cuz I didnt bother getting it. A lot of scenes are shown without the usual movie treatment of brightening up rooms. Theres some interesting camerawork in the movie, a lot of shots have something in the foreground blocking the characters faces while they are talking, which is actually pretty cool. The movie is pretty much a comedy but has its sloemn depressing moments as well. The plot is good but what really makes this movie good is the level of dialogue.. gotta warn you, if you're 15 you are not gonna appreciate this movie as much as you would in your mid 20's. 8.5/10

Video: Because of the dark scenes I turned the gamma up to brighten up the picture.. in playing around with this, the movie looked pretty bad when I over corrected and made it too bright. I'm not sure if this is a characteristic of SVCD's since I usually watch DivX/XViD. With the gamma set to normal levels though it looked good. 8/10

Audio: Flawless.. except for the fact that it was missing 3.1 channels ( all these AC3 XViD's have spoiled me) but SVCD's cant have that anyway so no deduction.. lol 9/10

Haven't watched the whole thing, watched the first 15 minutes then had to go to sleep. The movie looks great, as far as the plot goes, Rodger is a funny mofo. One thing I did notice on my standalone SVCD player is its kind of jerky or choppy. But can't complain, its a DVD screener. Other than that, I can't wait to finish the movie.

As far as people sayin the picture was too dark, I didn't notice that. Must have been from the jpg like people have mentioned.

The movie is good; audio is good, and the video is good, but it was also jerky on both of my dvd players. Anybody know if this can be corrected?

playing this movie looks like it was encoded using 29.97 instead of NTSC Film.... hmmmm frames are a bit jumpy--highly noticable? maybe its just my player/cd though :\
