Sad to say Maven is letting us all down, as no one else has stepped up to the plate either....

but this release is shit...enough said.

still missing large chunk of film and just a waste of bandwidth.

5/5/10 movie was awesome...

don't be surprised if we never get a good copy or a complete copy of this....look at Silent Hill....still no complete copy of that...

Or alternatively they are just holding out becaus everyone on here is praising their name so much that the mpaa is on their ass just like with centropy.

Sheesh guys yeah their releases have good vid quality but their sound has been abysmal, they turn up around a month late for the big releases (MI3, X-Men 3) and nearly EVERY release has a head popping up.

As for this release, after fixing the ar and turning the colour up (for those interested feed it through tmpegenc or adobe premier and turn the red channel up a little and the brightness down) was quite watchable.

Didn't see any heads, not as much audience participation as the last rls.

Movie was a bitch, can't remember shouting at my screen so much since matrix reloaded!!

V - 8 (after clean-up)
A - 7 (turn your subs on to get the bass back)
M - 7 (Wasn't feeling it as much as the first, plus WWAAAYYY too much hype!!)

I bet MaVen is working on a copy as we speak, I went to watch this at the cinemas and it was great. Sorry go to off topic but I'd love to have this on DVD asap too

yeah Maven is letting us down big time, but I think they are done.......I just hope a TC comes out soon or someone with a nice ts comes out, I've been dying to see this movie, for realz!

Decent enough copy...still missing a lot, I'll wait cause this movie is worth a better rls.

Video: 5
Audio: 5
Movie: 10 (AWESOME!)

And stop bitching about you not being able to see the movie because there isn't a good copy out, pony up the 10 bucks and see it in the theater. Its worth it!

Well, I did a file comparison between the Hydro release and the Xanax release to see what was missing from each of them. They are clearly not from the same source since the lens covering in the Hydro release does not occur in the Xanax release. Since they are from different sources, the chances that they would both me missing a section of the movie in the exact same spot are doubtful. With that in mind, it looks like the Xanax release is complete except for 1:30 section between cd2 and cd3. The Hydro release was missing about 30 minutes between its cd2 and cd3. I just cut edited out the missing 1:30 from the Hydro release and so now I am going to actually watch the movie... HEHE... Still not a great release, but ok for a cam

Xanax release

6 V (color washed out but brighter than Hydro release)
7 A little crackly and hissy
?? Haven't watched it all yet

i guess its watchable

bad AR as everyone else has said

i give er a 4/5/??? only got 15 min into cd1 and called it quites

Take a russian full TC, add an english track from here and you get a watchable copy.

Why is everyone railing on Maven? I mean until recently they put out stuff only rarely. It would be great and I know I'd be a happy camper, but still...Hydro is mainly who knows what you'll get cams. The TS groups like ORC, Hustle, Prevail, and HafVCD are the ones we come to depend on for this stuff. Like everyone I keep checking and hoping for something out there, heck been almost stupid enough to grab the French TS and at least be able to see what the movie looks like. Stop ragging on these groups and just hope someone pulls down a good version. Talking smack wouldn't motivate me to shut someone up. I do hope for something soon, but time will tell, but stop talking trash like they owe us something.

how can any of you be pissed that such a fine movie isn't released in better quality. Yes, maVen does great work, but how are they letting you down!? - do you think they could care that your feelings are hurt. Just be grateful they were around for some good rls's and be grateful other people risk it all to give you this rls.

Ugh

Not very good. Picture looks like garbage even for a cam. I appreciate what the guys are trying to do here but this is just not good.

Movie was a blast. Not sure what critics that are blasting it were expecting from a Pirate Movie. Realism I suppose.

4/4/9

I checked out the sample last night... Horrible

V - 2 AR is WAAAAAY off.. very pixelated picture
A - 4 sound was pretty hollow
M - ????? I think I'ma go watch it in theater tonite

dale the dildo made the .cue files

OK.
Some newb made the .cue files.

His name is dale.

He made the .cue files with fixed paths to his desktop.

LORD.

Give maVen a break!

Everyone needs to keep in mind that this is one of the hottest movies out in years and last week's showings were probably sold out. I don't think they had a chance to set up their stuff to get a quality capture of the movie with all the people around.

If you want great quality for a movie this popular, just go to the movie theater and watch it there, otherwise be patient.

decent cam, still waiting on the tc that is floating around but i cant find, lol.

v: 5
a: 5
m: ? still waiting

Yup agree with all , this isnt going to cut it for this film . I did how ever grab a "TC last night . The vid is the best out there , rather good . But the damn thing is outta sync , way out . Its not constant so it'll be piece work, thats alot time for a rookie like myself .

For this
5/4/? havent watched more than 5 minutes of any release ...dont wanna spoil it.
