I liked this film. What's up with there NFO? I can't quite make out some words.


Posted by TMV on 09-14-2004 03:44 AM:

Quality is on par with other MaVeN releases. As stated in the nfo it is dark. Also has a little motion blur, and the sound is a tad low. All around an excellent release though.


Posted by vip3r on 09-14-2004 03:53 AM:

THIS IS THE BIGGEST PIECE OF SHIT EVER! TAKE THAT mAven!!

haha jk .. that nfo doesn't appeal to me though - jesus if you're gonna try to be assholes can't you make it so we can understand you?

Picture is pretty dark like they said .. sound is nice, not one of their best releases but it'll do

anyways - we all appreciate your releases..

7/8.5/? - haven't seen it yet, will watch tomorrow & update

thx maven

7/7/6

I woulda given it an 8 or 9 but I'm a fan of the video games (at least RE 1-3, code veronica and RE zero were shite) and the movies take the whole concept and turn them into regurgitated garbage. Capcom definitely writes better storylines than whoever was in charge of these movies.

Edited From Full Release...

Beautiful Release...looked ok on the pc monitor..but amazing on my flatscreen. Beautiful colors and damn the audio is pumped up!!! I love it. Nice release once again Maven and its complete to the end. Nemesis was true to the game. And lots of Action/Gore/Profanity/Did I mention action and gore. Well the movie was nice. I thought the video game Nemesis was shit. But nice movie to implement on a game that was poop compared to the others in the series. But from the way it ended. Resident Evil 3 will be very lovely.

8/9/10 movie was really good...way better than the the first. amazing effects. can't wait to see part 3.

Another great rls. Angry nfo, tho. Shouldn't you be happy that everyone wants you to do every release? That's called setting a standard.

put me in the boat of people that didn't like the video game and liked the first & 2nd movie.

This release is great, even by maVen's standards.

Their nfo, however, was pretty disappointing. Apparently, maVen only hears the few geeks who criticize them. Like CTP before them, they don't hear the vast majority of people who praise and thank them. That's called "empowering" the few geeks, and ignoring the vast majority. That's how the bad guys win.

video: 9 (if you think the movie's too dark, blame the director)

audio: 10 (dts level)

Looks good the film, liked the first one a lot

8/8/?

video was a bit dark, sound was very good.

I've been around here for a long time but I don't post to often. This crap of people not even seeing the movie or the clip it crap.
I guess some people think they are cool if they just can make a post or sometihng.

I can play raw mpegs on my DVD standalone so I just burn the sample on a rw-cd and play it, this is the only way to judge the sample IMO, seems to always look better on the TV than the comp.

Posted by KrackZaa on 09-14-2004 04:15 PM:

another sexy release from u guys, now im just waitin for cellular as the fBc version has good sound, but the pic is not up to par. i understand that you cant put out every movie, but i just thought i would say that anyways. maVen is the best, and I cant thank you enough for what you have done already, even if you never released again I would say you guys are winners.

9/9

The sample was good for showing light and dark scenes. Can't complain about the audio it is direct. Obviously the movie is dark and with a TS you can't get much better.

once again maven , good job , as for the movie , i could care less how good it is , its not like anderson didnt fuck up the first one, how can you expect less on a sequal. based on the calibur of movies coming out now i can expect alot of movie menstration , both in here and at the cinema for this one . anyway maven keep up the good work on the bad movies


Posted by theinitialj on 09-14-2004 05:41 PM:

This is an awsome release. Just went through the whole movie, and it is great quality all around. I'll give the video a 9, and the audio a 10. Great release Maven. You can't really get any better then this.

Going off of the sample clip..Pic has just a VERY a lil bit of flicker to it, but good lord. this is a niceee job.. i however, didnt like the box screen picture(if yours wasn't like this it may have been just the source i dl'd), so i made it widescreen, but other than that.. Great job..The NFO however wasnt very nice.. , only seeing the bad reviews and not the good..but as someone here said a few post back...by every one wanting your version should be considered a way of setting the standard. not a burden or be told to go get a different source! as the nfo did.. but all in all this is VERY watchable!! if the entire file is as clean as the sample , a newer version wont be needed till a Tc at least.. so.. if it isnt. hey i can always use Canopus Procoder on it. he he..
8.7 / 9 / 8.5


Posted by desertboy on 09-14-2004 10:52 PM:

7/9/4

Films was disapointing the video was very dark in places ala AVP. It was very nice in places but with a dark film like this it suffers.

Watchable certainly, much better than any copy around at the moment but not as great as some wold lead you to believe.

Downed this morning and just watched it now.

I didn't see it in the theaters, but even so... 136 frames is only ~5 seconds at standard PAL or NTSC framerates.

As for the release -
V: 7
A: 8
M: ? - Looks promising though... I like bad movies that make up for the lack of a story with 100% action and violence, and while skipping through it I didn't hit one "lull" scene.

little dark as stated..watched whole movie...one shadow moves across screen on cd1 in a very dark scene so not really a problem.

Nice release maVen


Posted by Mystic Slippers on 09-15-2004 12:33 AM:

But my god, what a diabolical excuse for a movie. I've given my cd's away of it already.

Not watched yet, but i like the first one, and you need dumb, fun films like this.


Posted by joebb3 on 09-15-2004 05:47 AM:

Remember when we have to use to wait for Centropy to post a quality release? They were always top of the line, but took forever...

Along comes maVen and raises the bar dramaticaly!

Decent movie, Great release (and quick too!)

8.5/8/7.5


Posted by HATECORE on 09-15-2004 06:25 AM:

Quality is pretty good but it doesnt help since the movie is dark. Get annoying sometimes when you try to see the faces or other detail, i put my TV brightness to the max but i didnt really help.

Sound is really good.

I loved the movie itself, way much better then the first one and atleast this time there was one character from the gameoh and NEMESIS rocks!!! Cant wait to see what they will come up with in the 3rd movie...maybe chris redfield!?

7/9/8

Good job maVen

I think most people on here do this, i usually download 2-3 rars from CD2, instead of the sample.

Its easily done, if you still have all the rars from a release, just name one of them, from .rar to .mpg, works fine, even if the file inside is in bin format.

Only one recently i couldnt do that with was Tegs Two Brothers Screener.


Posted by I am X on 09-15-2004 07:12 AM:

MaVen outdid themselves with this one. Audio was flawless. Video was VERY good, just kinda dark. Also, I didn't have that audio sync problem that many of you were talking about. I simply used TMPGEnc to lighten up the pic, and convert it to DVD compliancy. That's all I had to do, then got to enjoy it on my DVD player. Video was clean. Didn't notice any artifacts, even on the fast scenes. It was just very dark until I lightened it up with TMPGEnc. Movie itself had more action than the first, but the plot was underdeveloped. It was all about killing and shooting. Character development was lacking and you never really felt anything for the characters that got killed off. I'll say one thing, they left this puppy WIDE OPEN for a part 3!

Video - 8
Audio - 10
Movie 5.5

In winrar if you click the extract... option then you get a winrar window, at the bottom of the window is a box that says keep broken files, check this box then extract, you are left with a file that is easily playable with VLC media player or MPC and the length will depend on the number of rars you have, HTH

Film: 7

Better than the last film, but felt like something someone did just to add to his CV, some very cool bits in it but let down by lack of interesting dialogue and the lack of instensity that Nemesis should've brought, great to see Jill Valentine in it.

Nice to see some decent zombies films this year (best being Shaun of the Dead).

Next film is called Afterlife and is set after the games, could be good if they let someone decent direct it (maybe someone daring).

Its a TS, and the film is dark, more than likely if theres a TC, it'll be too dark and the Screener will definetly be dark, this will do most people till DVD time.

And Mystic dont you think ur being a bit harsh, its not perfect, but it does exactly what it says on the tin, i wasn't expecting much of a plot and dialogue from this.

the fella that said that is so wrong he makes other wrong people feel good about themselves

Posted by Rusty^^ on 09-15-2004 04:30 PM:

Baaah

I watched this movie yestorday, and it was at least better then the first one. The quality not as bad as all jpeg/sample bitches say. It's quite dark but i don't think any group can make a better release then maVen on this one.

And please don't complain about my spelling ;D


Posted by nozafc on 09-15-2004 05:17 PM:

Smile

Im never a fan of sequels as they tend to make a mockery of the orignal but in this case i say well done. Enjoyed this more than the original. Will definetly be going to see this film when it gets released in gods country (thats the UK btw )

Anyway apart from a few dark scenes this release rocked!! Well done maVen

8/9/9


Posted by oo420oo on 09-15-2004 06:59 PM:

Watched this movie on my tv w/Mintek DVD 1600 standalone...
Video: 8.5 - very good. slight motion blur. It didn't seem dark to me...
Audio: 8 - very good. Very good quality sound...voices were faint, sound effects were loud. Woke up everyone in the house. Adjust EQ. Apologize to wife. All good.
Movie: 5 - Meh. When there are no monsters on the screen, the movie tanks. The kids loved it. I did not.


Posted by pikeyfecker on 09-15-2004 07:29 PM:

Good release but no matter what I play it on there is a sync issue. maybe a fraction of a second easy to fix, but it's there if I rip the .mpg or burn the CD, play it in windows, Xbox or 3 standalones. It's deffo there.


Posted by Redemption1980 on 09-15-2004 07:43 PM:

Miller how am I so wrong? Wrong about what?

You can just rename the rar to an mpg, you dont need VLC Player at all, any player willl do it.


Posted by sander_kok on 09-15-2004 08:01 PM:

Watched it today, loved the movie, ending kinda sucked tho, there will probably be a third movie

Video was good, little dark at some times but that's normal for a TS. Audio was super.
Good movie but not as good as the first one.

8/8/8

Posted by stezo2k on 09-16-2004 12:17 AM:

Great release for a great movie

Video - 9, probably the best you could get from a telesync, could do with being a little brighter though, very impressive though

Sound - 10, I felt this was done perfectly, the quality is the best you can get for stereo sound, felt like i was in the cinema

Movie - 8.5, Enjoyed this one, much better than the first, action was pretty good and the acting was good too

Movie was good for an action movie, not so good for a horror movie. Once again, maVen makes a cam look like a dvd-rip.

video problems

did any1 else have some problems with the video going blocky and stuff like that. ive got a pretty recent sony standalone dvd player and when i burned using the bin and cue files cd1 fukd up after 25 mins. so i reburnt cd1 and 2 by extracting the mpgs and burning those no problems in cd1 but near the end of cd2 i had blockyness in some parts for some short periods of time. any1 else have issues like this. never had issues with other vcds and other groups like videocd and maven just happens on this release of resident evil.

good lord I LOVE maven.

(i wish they'd do without a paddle at some point here).

anyhow, video as always is amazing, audio is perfect.
movie... entertaining, not something I'd usually be interested
in seeing.

Watched it on the TV.

video: 8.5
audio: 8.5
movie: 7 (decent for what it was)


Posted by cico on 09-16-2004 02:31 PM:

OMFG what a waste of time
8/9/4.5

huge plot holes, useless story improvements and, btw, [spoiler] what are they gonna do to her next time? first movie she was human, second she was a controlled-infected, third a kind of cyborg... fourth what? goddes? [/spoiler]

glad they remembered to put another almost-naked scene at the end, i guess i'll watch the third movie just to catch the next issue


Posted by hatguy on 09-16-2004 05:39 PM:

Finally had a chance to watch this one. Once again, another excellent maVen release!

Video - 7 (Very good with the quality. Yes, it's on the dark side, but all I did was adjust the brightness and it's fine.)

Audio - 8 (Again, very good sound... it's just a bit low.)

Movie - 7 (Movie was way better than the original.)

Excellent release. Great job, maVen!

good quality, movie is ok if you dont have anything else to do

Very, very nice job, maven.
Even the dark scenes are completely watchable.

9/9/7

Quality was awesome. Video and sound were clear (although i though sound was low, but that can be adjusted). Yes, it's dark, but that's the movie... Movie was pretty good, too.

Watched on comp.

LOVE maVen.

nothing important is missing - the first few scenes are the same as the last few of the first one anyway...

quality is pretty good - as usual, most ppl complain about it being dark - it was set OVERNIGHT and inside in unlit places - the original was dark, so what do you expect.

movie was a sequel, course it ain't as good as the orig, but it weren't bad at all. WHat is the point of saying "i'll never watch it but i'll give it a 1" - nice of you to let other people know what it's really like - yer sposed to give us facts about the release so we can judge if we wanna download it, not your personal opinion, which is always what you think is cool to say - betcha got lots of britney musicvids at home huh....

audio ain't up to maVens usual standard, but still better than the rest. They ARE the new standard, and i for one appreciate them - i rarely get other releases if i see a maven - i'm even wary of CTP TS's these days - they set the standard in DVDr and DVDRips now, Maven are out TS guys. Without a good team, we can't bitch about the n00bs lying about what they release....

anyway - enough ranting....

8/7/6 IMO

luv ya all :-x

Great picture, great audio

8/8/1

This is by far one of the worst movies I have ever seen, some people are giving this movie a 10, which says a lot about your taste in movies.

The only good part about this movie was the expended line.

"We're expendable assets....and we've just been expended"

I haven't laughed that hard at a "serious" line in a while.


Posted by Master73 on 09-17-2004 07:45 PM:

Talking My view

For what its worth 8/7/7

Hope this helps those who have not seen to get :-)

Thumbs up maVen Brings The GOODS Again

7/8/7


maVen has done it yet again with Another Excellent Quality Telesync. I mean, these guys are quickly becoming the standard that everyone else would like to have. Anyways, as for this one, the video was pretty darn good. I did notice a little bit of a sync problem but it was pretty much corrected just by using the pause button. It looked really clean and smooth. I didnt notice any artifacts or macro-blocks in this one. Even in the action packed scenes. The audio was the maVen usual. Excellent!!! It Really sounded nice on my Home Theater System. The movie itself I thought was very good. I know alot of people didnt like it for some reason, but I thought it was really pretty good. Lots of action and gore and just all around entertaining. Thanks Again maVen for releasing this one. Keep Em Coming!!!!

8/9/10 great movie

good work maven


Posted by pNd on 09-18-2004 10:01 PM:

maven, enough said.

9/9/5

sorry, just didnt like it


Posted by JarHead413 on 09-18-2004 10:14 PM:

Good job once again maven.

Video 8: Fsirst off, am I the only one that sees a huge angle in this release. EVERYTHING is curved that should be straight except the bottom, like the camera is tilted upwards. I thought these guys shot from the top back to avoid getting caught. Anyways, very watchable, good colors, dark scenes are easy to deal with.

Audio 10: Direct, good, clean. Why do you people complain about volume. Simply turn you stereo up or down. If this is a problem for you, seek help.

Movie 7: Loved both of them, but this one seemed a little bit too cliche like. Having a very large budget for a movie that didn't reallyneed a big budget is many movies downfall. But they restrained enough to keep things from being way too lame.

Watched this last night. Awesome movie.
Video: 8.5
Audio: 9
Movie: 8. Would have been 9, if the fighting sequences with Milla had been in slow motion. Looked like the Moskou car chase in Bourne Supremacy.


Posted by OASVstar on 09-21-2004 04:23 PM:

Video was ok sound was good and Movie eghhhhhhhh better than the 1st


8.5/9/8

Yeah the movie was very good at some points especially during the church scene you couldnt see a thing but everything else was ok just that since the movie is DARK as stated in the info it will be annoying but if you can deal with that and enjoyed the '
1ST RE MOVIE then this release will probably suit your needs

Watched this on my 52" rear projecton TV and i have to say it still looked bloody good! the sound was excellent (although i had a minor 'buzz' for a min about 10 mins into CD1) and the picture great, the only problems came in dark scenes (ie grainyness/silouetting) which are very frequent as the movies set at night!.
The major issue i have with this movie is the crappy editing, the 'battle' scenes are impossible to follow as the action is zoomed in so close and the scence is cut before you see any real violence/blood/guts/horror. which is REALLY annoying! you end up not knowing whats going on!/who been bitten etc.
Enjoyable enough though and its begging another sequel.

Video:- 8
Audio:- 9
Movie:- 7

good release....not seen movie yet...will do soon

7.5/8/?

Movie was good though a little dark in places. Thought it was a lot better than the first, though the Nemesis was pathetic. In the game it was a big, mean mutha fuda but the movie he was more of a push over. PLUS didnt he have a long tenticle thing in the game? Didnt see anything like that here.
