They seem to be concentrating on releasing only the most mindless drivel that the movie industry has to offer.


It isn’t the groups fault that good movies aren’t being released now. Winter and Summer are when all the good stuff gets released mostly. They put out whats in the theaters, and obviously we are interested in it, because we wouldn’t be talking about it if we weren’t. So you are partly right, yes they are releasing crappy movies, but they cant control whats being shown in theaters, and releasing crappy movies is better than releasing nothing. At least by releasing these movies they can sharpen their skills for the summer movies.

personally, i'd take a little grain over funny angles. i don't know. at least with a grainy picture you don't really notice it after a while, but that angle thing is really persistent. heh. doesn't ever start to blend really... naw mean ?

i agree. CTP is fucking up largly with the angle. the quality of the video is very good, everything is readable/viewable. the sound is great, but that angle just fucks everything up. even the old spiderman and star wars II were a little grainy, but i perfered that over bowed picture. scoot back guys or get the camera higher. or better yet, take some pointers from TCF. their bringing down the house was pretty much the best i've seen as far as a TS.

u must have not seen CTP's releases from last summer ...NO BLUE TINTS, NO ANGLES, NEAR PERFECTION.

judging from sample
7.5/8/?




Movies from CTP last summer with blue tint:

Unfaithful
Insomnia
Bad Company
Undercover Brother

and probably more, those are the ones that come to mind. Also they were becoming famous for the boom mics that would pop into the top of the screen from time to time.

I'm a big fan of these ts's and am perfectly happy with the quality. I just don't find that it has gotten any worse. I hope CTP continue throughout the season and release some films that I'm actually looking forward to watching.

6/6/8

nice rls

personal i'd rather watch it with a blue tint, than the angle, but i'm grateful either way


Update:

After watching this for a second time, that angle thing is alot more off putting thatn the blue, it looks like the opening credits to star wars throughout the film.

I think CTP should change there blue intro to :

Long time ago in a Far away galaxy......

Bring back the blue fellas

I am glad I waited. I knew someone will be able to do a better job than the one released by FTF.

I think the angle is very annoying. But I do agree it is still a good release and I appreciate them being on the scene again. The colors on this one look a little faded (it looks like the whole thing was filmed on a rainy day). The sound is great, and it is a pretty clear copy (much much much better than the FTF version). Sometimes you don't notice the angle at all, but then they show a close up of something, or there is something in the foreground and it is awful. This is definatly watchable though. Prolly the best copy you'll see until there is an unwatermarked screener. Thanks again guys. Move that guy back a few rows and we'll be back in business.

you guys seem SO sure about how that angle happens

you sure the angle prob aint from hooking up a cam to the projector for the t/s and not taking into account the super 35 format this film is in?

the jpeg looks exactly like an anamorphic dvd that hasn't been "stretched" ..... on an anamorphic tv .....

or more like an anamorphic dvd on a non-anamorphic tv that the dvd player hasn't been set to 4/3 lbx, but left at 16x9 - - i.e., the peeps on the screen are tall and skinny.

im going by the jpeg, and comparing it to Tears in the Sun, where the actors heads tapered at the top which made Tears look like a distance from the screen capture problem for CTP, this one - TheCore - looks like a prob with cam settings .

just my stupid 2c worth.

but keep em coming, CTP, no body does it bettah !!

gotta luv those colors in the jpg, and besides, what's not to like about a phallic ship penetrating the hot molten core of mutha earth ? ..... hehe science fiction fantazy rUleZ

this is not really a big complaint... this rls was definitely watchable. but what's up with the framerate? i'm surprised it's at NTSC, considering it doesn't really have a flicker to it... but i can't see them doing a PAL>NTSC conversion, when there's no need to...

also, what's up with the field mismatch? if you notice, all the scene changes have mismatched fields, you can see both scenes at once. i almost want to say 'bad ivtc', but i just can't figure out why they'd ivtc a cam, unless it was filmed at NTSC rate to begin with... but if so, i'm very surprised that there's no flicker to speak of...

hrm... well, to my mind, this is one of the lower quality ctp releases i've seen, even from this year. the angle is bad, it makes it look like the AR is way off.. and the weird field matching is distracting, to me.

nevertheless, it is certainly true that a ctp "bad" release is better than the best release of many groups. if you want to see this one, this release is very watchable.

Angle vs Tint

Atleast give some leeway toward the tint to try to fix the angle.

8.0 Audio

You do know there are cams you can adjust the shutter rate to be the same as the projection which means that its not PAL or NTSC so they can rls in either format without any flicker. On the quality. 8/9/8...i enjoyed the movie alot, kept me well entertained and its not as far fetched as u think..overall the angle doesn't affect the picture, ill take angle over blue tint.

the picture is superb, but like it has been said, the view is bad. its obvious at times, but if you just looked and glanced at the right time, it isn't noticable.

Post about boom mics..

The problem with boom mics on rips isn't the groups fault its when the film isn't loaded up perfectly on the projector and it shows too much of the top of the film thus letting the boom mic into the shot a little. So the group isn't really to blame.

Good lookin TS, one of the worst movies I've ever seen. My friends thought it was hysterical though. 8/8/1
