Terminator 3 *SVCD* *TS* - TELESYNC - Centropy

Nice image clarity, clear sound, very nice on the TV. I will definitly be watching this on the TV tonight

Great work.

8/9/8

yep even better than TCF's, which was very watchable btw

I'd say 8,5 / 9 / 10

This movie is friggin awesome
Waaaay better than The Matrix reloaded (there is some comparison)

Comparing the exact same scene from CD2 of TCF's copy and CTP's sample it doesn't look THAT much better. Better colors=yes (although a bit red, look at Arnolds face) but there is a very noticable angle especially when they zoom out on Arnold standing and shooting and during the casualty count screen. Also I hate to say but even though CTP's is sharper and TCF's is more grainy, CTP's is actually more pixelated (compare the explosion fire). Another downside is the amount of cropping BUT the sound seems MUCH better and also the colors/sharpness. This is just my opinion through comparison, both are great releases but I already watched the previous copy so I'll pass. 7/8/10 Choose whatever version, they're both good

*From sample*

Well thought this would be another fortnight or so.Will watch this tonight even though i endured the umms release.
usual CTP quality.
8/8/10

__________________

i would actually say this is a whole lot better than tcf's .. besides the cropping .

angle doesnt bother me ... ive grown to live with it .. sound is ctp usual ... nothing to complain about .. . same sort of pixelation as most of ctp's releases ... ( on high color , fast moving scenes )
color seems good , but a bit to highly saturated at points ...

anways ,. besides the cropping its a great release, this will be the one i will watch

8 / 8 / ? .. hope its good ( i think ill wait for cinema first tho )

Getting Sample...
Watching Sample...

very nice, little pixelated, couldn't notice much of an angle, slightly too red on faces. it is as good as/better than a screener imo

8/8/12

better colours than TCF.
what a shame that it 25 days left beforce i can go to the cinema and watch it
8/8/? (hopefully a 10) =)

Its pretty much the same as TCF version from the sample, but has better colors. TCF was good and this one is better.

8/9/9

this one looks better, but tcf sample is from night and this is day, so cant give a fair judgement.
tcf`s was grainy, but most TS tend to be during a night scene. sound is good on this and i think pic is fine. if u havent seen it yet, then get this even if u have got tcf.

FINALLY!!!!

Was waiting for this mother fucker to bust out!


8/8/9

Video is better than TCF, only it's a little too dark, dark areas disappear. Also a little zoomed in, cropped both sides and top/bottom.
Audio is better.

7/8/7 - movie wasn't as good the second time I saw it.

Video is a 7. I don't think this one was as good as The Hulk or Charlie's Angels 2. Not as sharp.
Audio is a 9. Very good, very sharp and nice.
Movie is a -. Havn't seen it yet. Probably won't do for a while.

It seems to be crpped alot, which is a major downside. very rich in colour. But the audio rocks with very little hissing noise.

so, I'm hearing conflicting reports here and dont want to download it because i have the TCF, is this a dupe?....and if so, why are people saying its a better release?...is it or isnt it a dupe?

I still get a kick outta some of you guys knocking on ctp and how they're doing it and how it looks but still can't bring yourself to say anything negative besides"little too much cropping". pffft you guys would've unleashed if this was a tcf or anyone else. When are you guys gonna pulls your heads outta ctp's anus?
Video 6
Audio 8
Movie 9 without first 2 7 with them
ctp copys good but don't get too stressed if you can't get ahold of the ctp copy jus dl the tcf and watch it.

are you all blind ? the angle on this is nasty and your giving it an 8 ??????? youre all fucked up ill admit that the colors are better than tcf's version but so what id rather stick with my tcf than burn this angled crap


5,8,7

Ok i know i am late on my post, But here is my Comment!

...

Video Quality is 8
Sound Quality is 8
and Movie is already 8

this release is Much Much Better Then any other releases that has been rlsed!

OK, Please Stop asking for Movies, and Go and find it.

Nice colors, but the angle renders this release useless. TCF wins this round

Don't know why this release isn't as good quality as their others but the video is less clear and lacks the definition of their other new releases. Sound also seems to be lacking in quality and seems 'distant'. At least the colours are good and the picture doesn't seem squashed as TCF's did.

7/7/?

just watched TCF`s all the way thru & in my opinon the CTP is much cleaner than TCF`s i dunno how it was duped but thats what happens

8/8/9

They should have "proper" this, that's why its being called a dupe. Saw both samples, getting full versions now, and CTP still seems better overall, but I'll burn both tcf and ctp cd 1s and play it on my stand alone/surround sound and see which looks and sounds better in the enviroment I'll be watching this in. Do this with many releases.

Colors are rich and vibrant. Centropy angle is present ofc.

Audio is clean and sharp.

Haven't seen the full movie yet.

8.5/9/?

Now on to the personal feelings.. which most people can't seem to distinguish. My biggest peeve about movies is white-flicker. I'll take a good many other negatives before having white-flicker in faces, backgrounds and the sky. I pass on all TCF TS's for that reason. This is the release for me. (Unlike all the other folks here, I follow that 'don't like it, don't download it' idea.)

if youve allready got the TCF release.. keep it.. this release isnt a big enough improvement to completely redownload.. and in some areas i believe that TCF's is better ala cropping/angle.. so if you got tcf.. hold on to it.. cause thius release really isnt better

__________________

"Nothing says OBEY ME like a severed head on a fence post,"

tend to agree with a few on here the ctp version is NOT that greater an improvement to download it again,
i didnt like the zoom on ctp rls and TCF did a fgrand job on T3,
not knocking this rls either,big ups to both grps for getting it out ,
i love the terminator in them star sunglasses lol excellent!!
edit:
forgot to mention that i aslo think that the ctp version 'whites out' a lot more in the brighter areas

this is wicked nice, colors are nice, sound is nice

8.8/9/9

I have to say TCF was very good.
This is a little better

The color is alot better than TCF's.
Thats basically the only change I see in this shit. The audio sounds as TCF's release to me. The video isnt all THAT great anyway. Bleh..
Centropy could have done WAY better than this. I'm sticking with the TCF release though, seeing as how I already have it. Too lazy to redownload.

7.5/7.5/X

I watched the TCF release last night, and thought it was excellent. Even my wife was okay with it, and she generally goes to do something else whenever I start up a cam movie. This morning I grabbed the sample of the CTP version. Colors are a little more vivid in some parts, but otherwise the difference is negligable. I won't download the entire CTP in favor of the TCF, although clearly either one will do. IT's ood to have a choice for people, and judging this thread, it's clear that telesyncs can be a very subjective thing. I appreciate the efforts of CTP and TCF, and enjoyed this movie immensely.

8/7/8.3

No doubt I'd suggest peeps pick up the ctp rls of this movie; Unless you love to see every scene with brightness flicker. Just watch cd1 during the car chase, the tcf version flickers a lot during bright scenes (ex when the cam shows the sky, explosions; the part when arnold kicks over the ambulance and it lands on its side is a perfect example of this). I'll take a slight angle any day as long as I'm getting great colors, sound, NO excessive flickering. 8/9/9

8/8/9

However, please never assume that you know more than anyone else on this forum. I'm not a stupid person and I realize why white-flicker occurs, however I don't believe I've seen any other groups that have it so pronounced as TCF. What makes you think I'm not going to pay to see the movie? I got the release, but I'm not going to view it till after I've gone to the theatre (this afternoon at the matinee) so again, I ask you to go ahead and *not* assume stuff you have no way of verifying. Thanks for including your opinions on the actual release finally... should have just stuck with that like most others are able to.

just watched the sample...not bad i give it a 7/8/? .
video is not that great, sound is ok.
gj centropy, as usual

__________________
---

Seen sample for both, TCF has really good sound and a good picture, but the colours are not great, but it is definatly watchable,
Centropy release has about the same sound and the picture is much better than TCF's because it has better colours. But i changed the colour contrast on my tv and it made the TCF release have much better colours.

If you have a choice of TCF'S release or Centropy's release, you should definatly get centropy's release because it is slighyly better.

THANKS TCF AND CENTROPY FOR QUALITY MOVIE
RELEASES!!!!!!!!

Audio: 8.5/10
Video: 8.5/10
Movie: 10/10 terminator 0wnz0rz

With so many releases of this movie, it gives people a choice, which i guess is nice, but the fact stands that a dupe is a dupe, ctp has proven to users in the past that it can raise the bar, however on comparing this release to TCF's, i dont think it justified them releasing it anyways and ingnoring the rules. Props to TCF and smaller props to CTP... Hey CTP you guys can't win all the time! Don't let it get to you and keep releasing! Both you guys own let's keep it going.

T3 CTP - 7/8/10

About time CTP releases T3 from sample i saw give 8/8/9 , watched tcf last night and must def comparing the sample to this gettin this one also , color is better and i dig CTP's angel. Props to tcf before ctp but ctp is "THE ONE" L8rs

:: They have an "Angel" now too? -K::

Oh no there are two releases out.. Who cares, just get which ever one you want. You know many people where waiting for a centropy release and here it is right on schedule. Great... fantastic.. yeah i though the colors where much better and so was the audio there was a buzz on tcf. There is an angle but nothing that was worth crying over. I will probably get this .. cause who cares, you guys act like you all arent a bunch of leeches anyway..

i voted 8/9/7

I agree there is only slight improvement but there is improvement (minus angle) plus its got the centropy seal of approval which so many demand..

There is nothing to discuss - this release is much better then the TCF. Colors are more clear, angle nearly ok... audio quality - hmm, i see no difference between the 2 versions - both OK!

My rating - 8/7/?

I can't believe it, they really did it!! Absolutely great movie!

My rating for it --- 10!

It's a nice release...colors are decent, sound is nice, it's a slight improvement over TCF's but not huge. The movie was suprisingly enjoyable, saw it today, maybe I'll give my opinion on it later but Leigh's review pretty much sums it up...

not bad but movie suck

nice to see another release but i think the movie was not that good i was expecting more and i already got the tCf one Dupe well the sample look pretty ok but i have seen better but since hte movie was not good i stick with tcf

Groovy (Sorry, been watching Evil Dead 2)

I think people have got over rating CTP's releases highly just cos they're ctp. Fact is all their releases (With few exceptions) are of excellent quality. This one too. The quality is far superior to TCF's (Which was good), much better in dark scenes.

I'll admit this is a better release then the TCF one, but Centropy needs to fix a few things.

1. Play by the fucking VCD/SVCD scene rules and stop thinking your god and better then everyone. Its not too fucking hard to put INTERNAL in your foldername, but then if you guys do that, then that means someone beat you to it, and you guys cry.

2. Stop cropping the damn video size so much and stop fucking moving the camera every scene to try and make the camera pick up shit on the sides that are cutoff. I noticed in charlies angels, Centropy moved the camera around quite a bit. Angle the camera properly, and leave it, shit.

3. Fix your angle problem as it is quite annonying. It wrecks the movie so much.

Im done.

TCF: Video=7, Audio=7, Movie=9
CTP: Video=7, Audio=8, Movie=9

Good Job...

Good work CTP... But, I can't stand the fish eye your camera lens creates. Sure the colors are awsome, but TCF's release had a perfect angle. I don't mind having less vibrant colors instead of your release that has that notorious "fish eye" angle. Anyways, keep em coming and please try to see about a new lense for the camera. Thanx for keepin them coming.

7/8/8

Aspect Ratio vs. Cropping (and my review)

quote:

---

can someone who's seen both releases explain this to me please?

measuring the aspect ratio of the tcf version it was a near perfect 2.35:1

i just got the jpeg sample of ctp's version and i measured the aspect ratio to about 2.3:1

so what are people talking about a cropped image? have the top and bottom been cut to compensate for a smaller wide picture, thus deceptively mimicking a more acceptable aspect ratio?

---

please stop the angles
8x8x9
omg keepn TCF's no angles and less red
why waste the disc's
you both rock keep it up
later

better than the TCF
but i have the TCF so im gonna stick with it, its not that much better
it is cropped, probably to reduce the angle
i dont really notice it, but i guess it really bothers some people
awesome colour, sound is superb
8/8/10

Nice colors but from the sample it has alot of pixulation Sound is good

7/7/? havent watched the whole thing yet

Video : Nice colors, clean picture, everything you would *expect* from ctp.

Audio : Clear and synced, no complaints.

Personal preferance on which version is better, TCF is you want a wider image, CTP if you want a cleaner picture - imho of course.

8/8/? tonight's feature!

lol

Will edit this after i get it.

Judging by the sample, this one has much, MUCH better colors than the TCF version, and it isn't artificially brightened like the TCF. It's also a bit sharper, but as a consequence there are more visible MPEG artifacts.

There are no quiet parts in the sample, so I can't tell if there's a buzz in this version, but the audio does seem clearer.

Movie was good.

dupe or not, this sounds nicer and i think sound is more important than video

8/8.5/X

ctp... hmm thanks i guess but i was expecting more?


*edit* i heard today that 3 CTP members got busted when recording charlie's angels 2... maybe this explains the TCF rip-off?

just a thought

cropping....its become a signiture of CTP......the nuke i can understand tho.....seems like if CTP crops a flick and filters the audio they can call it thier own. Dunno for sure if that it was they did but it sure as hell looks like it. This release i give a 7/8/9 to. Vid is good but not up to par.....sound is kewl..and movie is terminator(go arnie). BTW.....Centropy...if yer listening.....i could give a &hit about the boom mic or angle (angle is noticable no matter)....DONT CROP....and ill feel better. This was good....better than yer X2 chopfest but still....chins and forheads on actors and actress ALL the time is something ive come to expect in a movie.

trying not to flame without bashing myself

7/7/8


Good stuff as usual! Probably just me but I noticed a slight angle on this. It didn't affect me being able to watch the movie though, so no problem. I think this is probably due to camera location more than anything else, but I'm no expert.

From the sample (didn't see it burned yet) I saw on my pc, it's very good quality all the way through. From the sample I didn't notice any angle or any bad cropping like in Charlie's Angels 2. Cropping on that movie was very bad.

About Charlie's Angles 2... IF 3 members of ctp got busted while recording the movie, how in the hell did they release it then!? LOL

Ctp obviously (imo) records their movies after hours and they know the manager or assistant manager or they/he/she is a manager...

I'm just glad they go through all the trouble to put these movies out so fast with great sound and watchable video. Beats going back to the theater a bunch of times to see a movie you really liked again and again. And their ts releases are good enough to satisfy till a dvd becomes available.

Nice picture and sound as always from Centropy. The angle does bother me a little. This version has better color and sound than the TCF one but not that much better so I'm gonna stick with the TCF version which doesn't have the angle but both are very good for watching. It's a matter of what you prefer. For T3 I don't want a bad crop or angle if possible. I can always tweak color a little. The movie was good not great. T2 was better and so was the 1st Terminator.

8/8.5/8

to say this is from Tcf's release, it seems quite a bit beter quality, especially the sound, impressed, as for CTP i really hope they didnt get busted, i LOVE that group

8/9/8

I agree with Scouse....CTP has been getting some unusally high ratings as of late..props are one thing-but you know if CTP views this board and uses comments made here to better their techniques-some truth might be helpful

Vid-6/Snd-9/Film-5

8/9/?

Very nice stuff indeed. Dupe or not, this is the one to get.

T3 Made Me Feel Gooey

Lovely Movie I Must Say, Two Thumbs Up on CTPs great quality and great sound, and the movie was awesome for any die hard Terminator fans like myself. Everyone should go see this movie!

T3 IS THE BEST

i think ctps t3 was the best out and every will be untill the DVDRip comes out or untill i go see it in theaters, i watched it last night and it was f00king awesome. i give it 9/9/9, its also a GREAT movie, expect a few emmys for arnolds work in this movie.
Also The Female Bot Was Oh So Sexay

Colours are brighter than TCF, but the angles kill it.
Also, like I've said before, CTP should try NOT to crop so damn much, it ruins it for them. They have a bad habit of doing this..!!

Nice audio and pic (besides angle) so....

7/8/9

Nice release 7.8 / 7.5 / 8.2

8/8/?

Love this release of t3

8/8/9

Excellent film and an excellent version of it.
defo a one to watch.

Angle really isn't any big deal at all. My dads a real picky bastard about realeases and he say through this and didn't say anything about an angle. I said isn't there an angle he said I didn't notice. This one is realyl good quality seriously. Cropped a little too much but other than nice it was very nice. The movie rocked still liked T2 better but this was pretty fricken awesome great job centropy. 8.5/9/9. Watch it on ur TV looks ooo so nice .

9/9/10++++

The true crime isn't groups bootlegging these movies. The true crime is someone watching Terminator 3 at home before seeing it in the theater!

This centropy release is decent (not their best) but it still doesn't even compare to seeing the real movie in the theater. Any true Terminator fan will see this in the theater first, then pick up this centropy release to hold them over till a dvdrip comes out.

The Matrix Reloaded had a better picture than this rls. But the T3 audio is better. It's good, but I'm a little disappointed by this rls. I was hoping ctp would use this movie to make the very best rls they've ever done. About cropping, the worst part of the cropping was when the crane truck does the somersault and you miss seeing all of arnie in the lower left on top of the pick-up as it comes crashing down behind him.

But... I can't complain at all. I paid to see this in the theater so I got my money's worth. I leeched this ctp version for free... so I got what I paid for.

Still, it's watchable and keepable till a dvd. But it's a crime to see this ctp version before seeing it on the big screen.

It's very pixelated while watching on my standalone during certain fast-moving sequences... it plays better on the pc but watchable on your tv. Sacrifice size for quality, or quality for size...

I just finished watching the movie, and the sound was excellant, no glitches, as good as it gets, and the picture was brilliant. I have not watched the TCF version, but it looks much straighter but the colours are not great, so definatly grab the CTP one, Also the movie is incredible, should be watched in theatres, but not out here so i couldnt , but i will definatly see it when it comes out

VIDEO : 7
AUDIO 7
MOVIE : 10!!!!!!!!!!!!

Video=9
Audio=6


Very good Centropy

I watched this on an Iart Flatscreen last night , one word WoW. i didnt really want to watch it on my pc at the time i was more concerned with making it fit on a dvd and with nice 6000 bitrate it made the quality loss un noticeable and i am actually re rating this video the pic gets an 8.5 from me cause after pausing it and coming back in the room there were frames i noticed that were just stunningly good quality for this recent release . so centropy again i say GOOD JOB , btw love the intros ,keep em coming

oh boy

oh boy.... you know, if Centropy were to release a movie without the angle (which is not noticeable by the majority), some of you would still see "an angle" because you are brainwashed into thinking every CTP release MUST have an angle....which is not the case.


Thanks CTP for a great release.....picture and sound.


And for the record, CTP has never put PROPER or INTERNAL on their releases regardless of other releases out. Why should they start now? Because a few noobs to the scene say so?

The TCF version was watchable but the color was very washed out.
Just finished getting the CTP version and its IS a improvement. The color is much better and the sound is great as usual.

Nice job CTP. Thanks for the release!

I must say that I was god**** impressed by the quality of this release.
Video was kickass(8/10).. the colors were just eyecandy(not at all like tcf's)
Sound was kickass(8/10).. clear and nice

Movies was... dunno... we'll see

A kickass release!

Just got done watching it on my Iart 48in in cinema mode

Nice

Thanks CTP, allways a pleasure to watch your stuff

7.5/9/9.5 It was really a far better movie than I expected

Austrian bodybuilder, Norwegian blond girl, braindead American avtion/sci-fi history = BIG hit!

Damn, watched this on a Panasonic PT-AE 300 projector.

The angle bothers me, blurry picture. But best so far, waiting for a DVD-R screener.

(The sunglass scene is a classic!)

Doofus

Just watched the whole movie, I thought it was great....another quality Centropy release. Not too cropped and hardly an angle at all, so I don't know what the complaints are all about.

8.5/9/9

well done CTP, excellent quality and Excellent sound, only two problems, you managed to cut short the scene where the 1st CD ends by about 30 seconds and you cut off 20 seconds off the end of the movie, that is sooo annoying but apart from that great release guys.

8/8/4
This was one of my most sought after movies of all time and boy was i left disapointed! ok picture and sound are great! credits due! shame about the director and script lol! ok so we all know theres gonna be a T4 "Danes And Dahl" have revealed there contracted to do another movie! but WHERE IS THE ORIGINAL TERMINATOR THEME TUNE !!! They have stolen it!GRRRRR

Just watched part of CD1.

The angle wasn't noticeable to me that much. Audio was good, but I watched it on my laptop, so the speakers aren't that great. Video was good. I'm looking forward to seeing this on my TV, tonight.

This release is nearly amazing. The picture is Brillient typical centropy quality, but i noticed in the background of the audio in some scenes there is some crackle doesnt bother me that much but it is deffinatly there. The movie is brillient way better than i expected, i love the not so happy ending this is what should happen in alot more films, Bring on Terminator 4. In the words of arnie "Ill be back!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I Love this but not as much as i love Quality

Fantastical colours, mindblowingly beautiful sound, and a STUNNING ANGLE.

TCF's release blows this shit out of the water.

6/9/8

WTF are some of you idiots talking about. i watched this movie on my tv and it looks great! the sound was ok. the video was fantastic. one of the best ts's out there! i saw no goddam angle. there is no ANGLE!
8.5/7/9

movie kicks ass!!! not as good at t1 or t2 but its better than 99.9% of action movies now.

the quality on the video was so good even after i had to convert it to divx and lower the resolution in order to make it work on my Qcast tuner in my ps2.

great work centropy.

i didn't notice an angle in this release... i don't understand why some of u had to mention it, i even tried and didn't notice it, cropping was used a bit but that doesn't matter the least bit really IMO very nice centropy.


internal.. proper.. these words mean so little when watching a high quality kick azz movie

When in the theatre and the masking tape that hides the extra width and height is removed, you can see the boom mikes they used to film the movie with. They leave em in! The movie is actually MUCH bigger than the screens. I've seen plenty of raw movies, and the picture is actually a good 5 feet above and below the screen and about 1-2 feet more ont he side (including sound lines). The theatre then fits the movie on to the screen (we are an older theatre so we use maskin tape over the lens). So, and I forget which movie it was, but lots of folks were bitchin about seeing the boom mikes in a CTP release. Those aren't their mikes (lol and why would they be? Are they using them cause the speakers are in the theatre seats where the mikes are pointed to? lol), thats bad theatre cropping and centering (if you see those and its cropped [with tape] then the theatre did a bad job and the movie isn't centered how it should be).

Personally I don't like flicker either and i'm willing to sacrifice angle for detail/sharpness.. It's a small price to pay, but the end result is an image that is a lot clearer You can't have it both ways unfortunately, at least not unless you're filthy rich and even then there're limitations.. Point is when a projector beams an image onto the white screen it reflects light back towards the audience.. this is why you see the image & this is also why there is flicker with a cams recorded video when recording dead on.. The less direct you are in viewing the image head on then the less flicker there is in addition the more detail a camera will pick up because it can focus.. IMO People that argue about small details on good releases should just shut up & spend the money to see the movie anyways...

i've mentioned this before in relation to the boom mike argument. however, it's only true for films shot in Super35, i believe. this innovation was developed as an alternative to "pan and scan", which loses much of the picture when the movie is telecined and then made FS. with super35, you usually actually see MORE of the picture in the full screen version, not less as with pan and scan. most theatres use an attachment that fits onto the end of the projector and boxes out the extra part of the fiim, rather than masking tape (but you mentioned that the equipment in your theatre was old).

as for the dupe issue: it's a dupe. anybody who argues with that doesn't understand what the scene's all about. CTP's refusal to tag the dir with INTERNAL or PROPER is pure arrogance. if they started to do so, 90% of sites that don't take internals would probably make an exception for ctp anyway, so it wouldn't really make any difference to the end user. there are already sites with rules like "no CAM or TS except CTP or TCF". any CTP internal will spread everywhere, the only reason they don't tag it that way is because they think they're better than everyone else and don't have to play by scene rules. and as long as sites keep letting them get away with it, they're right, at least about the last part.

i've got a lot more respect for TCF in that regard. they own the screener scene, but you don't see them acting like they can just put out whatever they want, regardless of whether it's been done by anyone else or whatever. and when they do proper or internal, they tell their reasoning in the nfo, as is appropriate. they don't just stick it out there as if it's a given that everyone wants their shit, so there's no reason why they should have to stoop to following the conventions that allow the scene to function. if everybody acted like CTP does, the scene would be chaos, and what quality control there is left would be shot to hell.

also, it's lame in that they're being allowed to 'rest on their laurels'. if sites don't nuke them as dupes, then that means they never need to worry about whether any other group starts to come up and give them some competition. and wtf, maybe another group could have made their release better, but they were trying to race and beat other groups (which is the point of the scene, remember?). if ctp wants to pull themselves from that part of the scene, and considers themselves above competition, then ALL of their releases should be considered internals. because if TCF had released after them, TCF would have been nuked as a dupe (except for the fact that TCF would have labelled theirs INTERNAL, as is appropriate). nukers who allow a group to release a dupe without it being nuked, and yet nuke other releases which dupe theirs, are suckers; they've allowed themselves to be pressured and conned by a group into doing whatever the group wants them to do, including giving them an unfair advantage in competition. you can still take CTP's releases if they mark them INTERNAL; you can still get them in your request dirs if they don't. but don't let them push you around, it's bad for the scene.


reflected light isn't the only reason for flicker. there's also the issue of the frame rate difference between FILM and PAL. no lens filter will get rid of that, it's got to be processed out during the encode, or not picked up in the first place (by adjusting the camera's frame rate).

as to your whining about people whining, i don't understand why people get upset about those who comment on deficiencies in the releases; what otherwise is the point of this forum, if not to talk about that? no matter how good the release is, it's never going to match watching it in the theatre, so you wouldn't need to look at people's comments in order to make that decision. if you want to see it in the theatre, do so. if you want to download a release of it, you probably would like to know as much as possible about it before you waste your time and bandwidth. obviously, some have a problem with picture angle, some have more problem with graininess, etc etc, so for those people it makes sense that it is mentioned whether those problems exist, so they can decide which release they'd prefer to download.

also, wtf, big deal if someone does comment about it. i'd rather hear people's opinions on these details and / or some sort of technical discussion / argument than read 150 one-line "ctp rawks, great release, thx guys" or "tcf ownz0rz j00 all mofos, this rls r teh suck" replies, any day.

don't need to look at the chin. look at the vertical lines on the walls, it's pretty hard to argue with that.



heh not to mention possibly being governor of california by next year :-O

advice: take the tcf rls, lower the brightness and pump up the colors and voila, you got yourself a f***in good lookin telesync, far superior to ctp´s one!

same here, ive decided to wait for the CTP release when i saw the sample of the TCF release. The colors are... 'greyish' and the 'black is not black'. Maybe if you are going to tweak the settings of your dvd player a bit but i still to much greyish. I loved the CTP release (like everyone... and like every CTP release ). The colors are verry good. The CTP agle is back... not a big supprise and as soon as the movie starts (whoa, a huge battle with Terminators in the future) you are allready forgotten about the angle. As soon as this movie hits the box office in Europe, you will find me at the premiere, i loved this movie and i will going to watch this movie on a huge screen with dolby digital sound. And... the movie has costs so much... the moviecompany deserves my money, so they can make more of this kind of huge and good actionmovies. (Terminator 4, for instance )

Terminator 3 *SVCD* *TS* - TELESYNC - Centropy

theater quality, great picture and sound, made for an enjoyable evening of movie watching. thanx.

watched whole movie.... seems dark in many parts, and red in other parts. Other than that this version is very watchable. Also, amazing movie... a must see.

7/8/8

picture on this was pretty good, though i thought it would be better after reading some of these posts, but the angle isnt bad at all, imo. id give the picture a 7
sound was nice too, but when i play it in souround sound, you can hear some crackling noises every once in awhile, but nothing major at all. 8
the movie itself was good. not as good as the first 2 of course, but better then i thought it would be. it had a few REALLY bad one-liners in it ("talk to the hand", "you are terminated"-please!)
that were obviously trying to be another catch line for the series. other then that, the effects were good and if you hate the cgi effects in flicks like spiderman, the new matrix and the hulk, where you cant tell if you are watching a video game, a cartoon, or a feature film, youll like these cuz they actually look realistic. of course, you cant help but imagine what this would be like if james and the rest of the original cast was onboard.7

What happend 2 the Cheese?

Watched this copy thought the Quality way good 8.5 Sound was good but a little bit clicky near speak but cannot tell from a distance. 7! Angle not really that bad! But i was a bit disapointed not to hear some of the arni cheese like i want your clothes ur boot's & ur motorcycle! Classic! But overall a good film! there has to be a 4th tho! but arni sez that's it for him, Wont be the same!

Shrew


V8.5 ¡ A7 ¡ M8

Hmm

Very well done release by Centropy (was there any doubt?). A few of the high points-

1. Excellent video clarity (tempted to give it a 10 but I'll give it a 9)

2. Impressive audio clarity (with a few exceptions noted below, it's worth an 8)




At the end of the first cd, my dvd player had quite a bit of trouble decoding and there was garbage on the screen. This is relative to your dvd player since they all decode slightly different. There were a few points where the audio increased strangely, but nothing too bad.

The movie itself was garbage, imo. I'm certainly glad I didn't pay to see it, and I couldn't recommend it to anyone else in good conscience. 9 8 4 - watch pirates of the caribbean instead.

props to CTP! good work!

8/7.5/9

omg this quality of this movie was sensational. one of centropys best.

9/9/9 this moviez mad
