From sample: 7/5/?

Good brightness and clarity on the video, but sound is very tinny and hollow.

Posted by strike on 08-05-2005 06:50 AM:

V - 5; a 4:3 aspect ratio, cutting off a bunch of the movie, decent quality, not great.

A - 2; really hard to listen to, hurts your ears when people talk, hollow sounding.

Even if it does include the missing segments the other release didnt have, it doesnt matter, the sound is too annoying.

From sample:

Whoa, talk about ZOOMED!! Fullscreen and grainy, watchable if you gotta. Sound not awful.

5.5/6/?

Posted by vcd101 on 08-05-2005 07:57 AM:

I really wish people would stop trying to cam this movie...i went to the theaters and saw it and I'm sorry, on a really, really high quality SVCD Telesync or Telecine is going to do it justice....Everything in the movie was too detailed and fast paced....The Action was rediculous after the first 39 mins.

4/2/9 Movie was great. Started off slow, but got to the point after that....

Meh....

7/3/? Video is zoomed and cropped, but it IS a cam.

Audio, dear god ma, please remove the microphone from your anus, it makes it hard to hear.

And I have to agree, the sound, when people are talking, almost gives you a headache, definatly dnot worth burning.

Good attempt, someone could try to replace with direct audio down the road, but might aswell do a nice juicey SVCD ts.

Guess io'll have to wait for a dvd or pay to see this, as for all I hear is how fast paced and full of action it is.

Craptacular framerates and badly zoomed cams don't tend to be friendly to these types of movies.

Can't verify if it's complete, missing scenes like the other releases, i checked long enuff to watch the picture flicker and STRAIN to make out anything from the loud hissy, echoing, mumbled, audio.

Props to NYG for the effort, keep it up, practice makes perfect.

BUT.

Find yourself a nice direct audio source, I'm not asking for dts or anything, just sound that's actually audible would be a nice step up.

Is this the same as the TS by HyDro?

I have a TS by hydro that is badly cropped but very watchable and the sound is direct audio(really good). Is this the same release or....

Posted by socks on 08-05-2005 09:59 PM:

If you haven't gotta have it then don't bother. Zoooooomed, grainy and the sound is hollow but passable. Props for the release.

5/6/?

Bro have you been in a cave? This is not a new group by far. Glad to see Pv is back up in the scene. Not the best release from this group but not to bad. "Typical VHS Screener" Colors little faded, audio is dead on, movie was over all funny at times. Black and white like every 15 mins about 10 times to be exact and followed with one minute blur mark i assume for serials. Great job guys once and again and hope to see more releases like old days..

Picture cropped too much. Hard to read what is displayed early on. Color washed out, fuzzy at times.
Sound is what one expects from a cam lately, not too good.
Movie - well, I'm a sucker for anything SF.

5/4/8

you been smoking too much crack, this aint no vhs screener , nor does it have any b&w scenes
what it does have is a severe lacking of quality in either the video or audio
hopefully a decent rls of this will appear, as its one of the better movies doing the rounds right now
4/4/8

I think u posted in the wrong section. this isn't a Pv rls, not a VHS screener so i'm guessing you're talking about the lords of dogtown which was rlsed by Pv. Onto this rls, I thought the vid wasnt too good, the audio wasnt' good.. hmmm... i only got it to see some of the missing parts. 4/5/7
