Movie is 123 minutes long. No reason to cut anything or encode the credits differently. Even a nice soft quant. type was used (H.263). Sweet.

So WHY cut off the Credits and encode them at a lower quality? There is nearly NOTHING to gain.. quality-wise since the credits are getting less bit rate concentrated on them by the codec anyways.. encoding this way was just not needed.

If you're going to do something that MIGHT gain quality CUT the credits completely off. Don't leave some of the credits encoded at a different quality. It doesn't make any sense.

I'm a little annoyed that I downloaded this release. I'll just have to rip and encode the movie properly
