Freeze-frame?

Why Does this Xvid version freeze about 5 times between 1h34'54 and 1h37'09 (during the shaking fight scene) the same as the Xvid-MoMo version - Is it supposed to? - Does it freeze-up on all versions?

Yeah i believe the freezing is an effect of the film, nothing wrong with the rip. I'm 99% certain on that...

Freeze-Frame?

Fixed it!!! - Though it took all bloody night - It just didn't do it for me with that freezing-up stuff.

I had to cut a total of 53 frames in 5 places to get it right - 154551 @ 25fps = 1:43.04 TRT. (pointless me doing ntsc as I live in pal land) - and remix the audio with wavelab 3.0 - NOT recomended for the feint of heart (I used MoMo's 2 disk xvid version though, for the better end creds compression & DD audio, same faults so prolly the same DVDr source).

V = 8.0 (good average 1cd, looses marks for over compressing the end creds, not that many will bother viewing them).

A = 8.0 (good average Vbr-Mp3)

M = 9.0 (Very good - entertaining - Awesome SFX - Sci-Fi space movies are a little thin on the ground lately, with the latest SFX-CGI available to hollywood lets hope for some more) (can't get my head 'round UK lottery funding a major hollywood blockbuster - see very end creds)

I always buy the retail when it comes out (months later in pal land of course), so I hope this freezing-up stuff ain't on the retail.

I just can't agree with previous quality comments, so much so I had to register...

Just about every scene in this movie is filmed in half darkness, the result means it's looks really poor compressed down into a 700mb release, I have seen it before in other films, you just can't take a 1:46 or so film full of dark scenes and compress the heck out of it, the end result looks like crap.

Video - 5
Audio - 8
Film - 7

Good enough flick, but I think I would have enjoyed it better had I got the full dvd version, it's a film that partly revolves around it's effects value, which is spoilt in a lesser rip.
