-- Hustle And Flow *READNFO* - SCREENER - RIDERz (http://www.vcdhq.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=64920)

Had to regester just to tell the truth

This is a Very good copy considering it aint out yet.....well till Friday 22. NE ways i watched the full release on a dvd player.

rating

VIDEO 8
audio I give a 8 because you can hear err thang but there is a lil static in the background nothing major
Movie 7 i mean it was iight

i would def get this copy dont listen to those birds that say it terible cuz it aint

i compare this copy to maybe that longest yard vhs screener

just taking a quick scan yep the property of thing seems to be there the entire movie...

nope no occassional scrolling text. permenant tag line. however it is stationary and is near the bottom of the screen enough.that if someone cropped this part. you wouldn't miss much....

i'll check on the movie a bit later....and what's been said about the vid vid quality is dead on. so no need for me to add...

riderz(sp?) are first on block and i guess that counts for something...


get your hustle on i guess.

very good first copy
i love pimp movies

7/7/9

just watched this whole release. for me it was very watchable. picture does get blocky at times..especially the last few minutes of the movie, it got choppy.

sound isn't bad. you do have to turn it up loud and there is some hissing but it goes away.

movie was aight too. dude gave a great performance.

overall a pretty good release for a movie that just came out today.

6/5/6

7/7/10!!!
i really enjoyed this movie and not only cuz i like rap... and if you read alot of reviews from critics... they did give it a great rating. But I guess if you're judgmental on "these" types of movies... then maybe it's not your thing.

ok well I tried to watch this last night... too many drunkards around so I couldnt concentrate... but from 20 mins of cd1 I think the video is almost a typical scr quality, just a lil more pixelation, just soften up the pic a little on the tv, its better, the audio got annoying quickly, i guess they did thier best... oh well 7/4.5/7.5

::edit:: ok i just got done watching this on my computer screen with adjustable audio, more pixelation on the comp screen than on the 30" tv but with the sound control it wasnt as bad of a problem with the pops... up the bass a bit its ok... also my sound system wouldnt go very loud all the way up... unlike on the tv with 60's big ole wood floor record player hook up i had at my friends, oh well i stand by my tv rating and this pc rating, 6/5.5/7.5
The movie was good, but it must have a sequel planned, the ending was too abrupt... a pretty deep movie also, unlike most in the genre

one last thing that I noticed, this is an obvious TC scr, madd scene dots and such... found that a bit interesting, not unfound, but unusual

Bottom line........the movie was very good.

Compared to the Beautyshops,Honeymooners and Cookouts of the world this was Oscar caliber.

7/6/8.5




::Edit::Hey BiggusDickus allow me to be the first to call u a racist

Ok so it sucked

well it was a bad conversion, and yes I am new to the forum, but it was still poor quality.

A pre-release is still better than none...

My Two Cents...

Since I saw the commercials I wanted to see this movie. I wasn't disappointed... much. Btw, props to Riderz on the speedy release and if anyone from the group is reading this, dont take any of it personal

Audio - 6 - It's a VHS Screener but i've heard better audio from VHS Screeners. Seems like more attention was spent on speed than quality. I think a little more time spent on it would have yielded better audio. It was a bit staticy and was a bit annoying and the sound just wasn't good plain and simple

Video - 7 - Again, I know it's a VHS Screener but i've seen VHS Screeners with better video. And again, I think more time could have been spent on the quality instead of trying to rush it out.

Movie - 8 - Great acting and great story. I love it and cant wait for a DVDSCR or maybe a DVD Retail release. Hell, I might even go buy it

Ok first off this release is !@#$%^ is right.. OMG this a mislabeld TC if i have ever seen one. There is a Cam adjust right at the beginning. A fake as hell, stagnant PROPERTY OF PARAMOUNT PICTURES, no ticker and no black and white scenes. See Longest Yard Screener-VideoCD for a real paramount screener. Any how i guess its watchable. The audio cracks and pops and the video is dull and has the typical reel burns that would NOT be in a real Paramount screener. Easily watchable if u can bare the audio, but be WARNED. THIS IN NOT A SCREENER!!

7/6.5/7 It was a good film but NOT an uplifting one.ENJOY!!

i got a cleaned up audio dvdr version

picture was vhs quality sounds was decent, i actually had to grab some analog cables to get the sound to work it wouldnt work with my digital optical for some reason and i liked the movie

7/5/8

like some guy posted earlier, if you switch it to mono the popping goes away.

Producer John Singleton and others connected with the production of the just-released Hustle & Flow suspect that someone within the Paramount organization leaked a pristine print of the movie to bootleggers, who immediately made thousands of pirated DVDs from it, the New York Daily News reported today (Tuesday). Columnist Lloyd Grove said that he had received information from sources that 2,500 DVD copies have already been confiscated by authorities in New York, Los Angeles, Washington, Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago, Charlotte and Dallas.


So not a tc, not a cam, not a screener, but a workprint. Funny that they refer to it as a "pristine copy" They must be comparing it to those MPAA cams

7/3/6

video- less than your 0bus screeners, but props for source and speed.

audio- watched this on sony standalone my friends were bitching all we could hear was hiss and pop. i'm sure watching on your pc you have options but would have much rather had TS audio or even cam sound.

Movie- like 8 mile, dirty south jamz ain't really my thing. thx but i'd wait for a better release or wait till this is shown on cable and your bored.

By Memphis being my hometown, they did a decent job. They build too much on the stereotype and nothing else, but great performance.

V - 6
A - 4.5
M - 9

Downloaded some rar's and on my standalone, this movie is unwatchable (unlistenable??) because of the bad audio. Too much hissing and popping, will wait for a better release.

7/2/?

Not a bad release at all in my mind, the sound needs some work definatly but i didnt think the video was all that bad. And as for the movie i thought it was suck some serious balls, but it was highly entertaining and a great watch. All the damn great reviews where right and i was wrong, ill admit it!

V- 7
A-5
M-8
