Posted by Rezneck on 07-18-2004 03:07 AM:

Average rls imo.

6/6/7

btw you guys shouldn't talk about scene bs on here


Posted by Redemption198 on 07-18-2004 04:03 AM:

I agree its average, picture is pretty poor, watchable though, but its too shaky and grainy at times

Sound isn't as great as everyone is making either, (and i wish people wouldn't refer to it as DTS sound, its mp2 from DTS source)
Theres a buzzing at times and it doesn't do my DPL2 system any favours.

6/7/?

well i say

What’s the deal with the shaking I just watched it and is it me or did the screen shake the whole time???.... and the pixilation made the movie on the boarder line of not watch able I would stick with the FRA release its much darker but its very clear for a cam and the hiss in the audio goes away if you mess with the treble level


Posted by fkngrvn on 07-18-2004 07:01 AM:

This is decent for a VCD release. The audio is quite, needed to crank the volume, but the quality is great. Audio does go out of sync for about 5 minutes or so, in the middle of CD1, then comes back in. Saw this on the big screen, it lacked a little detail there too.

Heads and people, in a theatre imagine that. There aren't many releases that don't have a person's head in it. But anything is better than Cold Creek Manor, where you can hear the camera dude munching on pop corn.

To my eyes, and on my TV, I perfered this release compared to the FRA release. They are both VCDs, and the quality fits accordingly, just the FRA has nasty audio.

6/8/8 Good movie.


Posted by ElusiveHacker on 07-18-2004 08:22 AM:

Indeed.. Was VERY watchable.. Can see everything fine, isnt too dark like some people are saying..

And the walking in front on the camera only happenes twice through the whole movie for like a second or two each time..

And I didnt even notice the shaking.

7/8/8


Posted by slaz on 07-18-2004 09:06 AM:

just got done watching this....

video is grainey and zoomed in - but watchable by all means

audio is perfect

movie was really good!


7/10/9


some guy with a cap on gets up and goes somewhere twice in this movie..... bit of a pain but that whats you get Just made the experience a little more authentic and like being in a cinema

The video is definitely watchably, but certainly not terrific even for a TS.

The audio is excellent, I hope this kind of quality continues.

I just finished watching the movie. For a summer blockbuster popcorn flick it can't be beat. I wish it had stopped to be a little more contemplative at times, there were hints, but not enough to create real depth.

Anyway, it was an enjoyable experience all around.

p.s. Get down in front!

2 Headshots (1 during the ending)
3 walk-bys, from the same guy with the ballcap and mustache

Other then that, its a decent watch. I liked the movie.

Ummm... am I the only one that noticed this????

BOTH RELEASES ARE FROM THE SAME SOURCE!!

If you compare the fra and pot releases.. they are the same video source.... just that pot used something like tmpenc to either zoom in or stretch the top and bottom ... if you look at both.. in the scene where he tackles the robot about 7:55 into the movie you will notice someones head.. with curly hair on the right (your right) side of the screen.... it's there in both releases.. and I am 100% positive they are from the same silver source.. just pot got hold of the dts discs.. to resync the audio....... the picture on fra is 10 times better than pot... probably because they trashed the video quality by stretching it out.. either trying to cut out some of the heads.. or trying to make people think they had their own video source as well............

But aren't they the ones bitching in their nfo that some "elite" group was gonna strip their dts audio and use it for their own release???????? hmmm..........

After watching both releases.. i'm revising my rating........

POT=
6 video
9 Audio (sync issues stopped it from a 10)
10 movie.... it kicked ass..... one of my fav's for the year.

FRA =
8 video (much better than pot)
7 audio (released as a cam.. but the audio is direct so it
should be a telesync.. but to shut up the whiners
they only claimed it as a cam, yes it's direct.. you can hear the cammer fool with the audio jack a few times.. background hiss because it's not a great connection... but a few years ago this would have been top notch and received much higher ratings)
10 movie

Are you basically accusing POT of "stealing" FRA's video and screwing up the picture to make it look like their own source? If so POT released 1 hour after FRA and there is no possible way they could have downloaded FRA's copy > encode > merge DTS > pack > upload to all sites > pre within an hour period. Same silver source mabey. re-encode i highly doubt it. I watched a bit of FRA's CAM also and yes they labled right as a CAM , not only did you have the hiss to the audio but the echo of the theater POT's copy even though the sound was excellent still a bit blurry for my liking and yet to see the movie.

alot of grps get the same silver.....what pot as refering to was a grp was blatantly gonna strip the sound, which is just fucked up. Anyone can buy this video scource in NYC for $10 so pls stfu and stop trying to talk like u know what ur talking about :s Pot rls was brighter than FRA....pots internal svcd telesync looks like a good improvment tho


Posted by -Jenix- on 07-18-2004 01:01 PM:

just checked this out definately not the blockbuster I'd thought it'd be but its good nonetheless.


Video-6.5
Theres a few dark scenes where you cannot see exactly what your seeing but you make it out.
Audio-7 volume's a little low, dont hear any hiss or anything so good
Movie-8.5 - few twists but still pretty solid sci-fi storyline.

my first review...of many hopefully.


Posted by vinnyv07 on 07-18-2004 01:50 PM:

Watched this one last night. Very watchable on my TV. Picture was a little grainy but I think this is a great release so early on. Video was grainy but very watchable....sound was excellent once you turned it up a bit. Good summer action movie also. 6/8/8 ...nice job POT keep up the good work. Thank you.


Posted by Enzomatrx on 07-18-2004 03:36 PM:

I just watched this via the XBox, streamed to TV and must say it was highly watchable. I did not miss a line due to the audio being really great, and while the picture was a little blurry (only slightly) and the part used for the sample shows the most camera movement of the whole movie (weird choice for the sample with that fact), I did not miss one detail, even in all of the action scenes (and the tunnel sequence with a bad copy could easily be enough of a scene to judge the release on).

Considering the roadshow for myself in Japan doesn't happen until Sept. 18 (http://www.foxjapan.com/movies/irobot/), this was a great way to spend a Sunday night.

Thanks POT for a great, highly watchable release that I can eventually ask a nice, cute Japanese person to in two months

For TS: 7.5/9/9 (I really enjoyed the movie... maybe because I love the genre of 'dammit I'm right and everyone else is a fucking idiot', and Will Smith did pull it off nicely)

Also, as a movie, the CG was perfectly melded. The robots could have been stand-ins, you wouldn't know. Nothing overdone (except maybe near the end final battle with the climbing... no spoilers there)... and I never read the book so I can't do that kind of argument.

Buddy.. i've been watching boots since you were in diapers... and I do know what i'm talking about.

I never said they stole anyones shit....... just altered the same video source (silver) ALOT (in a bad way mind you) so that peeps wouldn't think it was the same video source...... that's the only explanation I can think of as to why they took a good video source and fucked it up.. when it was much better in it's original form... you can brighten.. add color... ect ect without stretching out the video to look like shit.

And firefighter.. just because an audio track has a hiss to it doesn't in anyway mean it is not direct...... it is direct.. i've watched both releases... it's just not a great direct connection.

but irregardless there's another pot version out now...... supposedly a bit better.. so let's get to dl'ing and check it out :-)
