From the sample:

Video looks nice, sharp, clear, good colours. Only the aspect ratio seems rather strange to me (1:1.7), should be more like 1:1.8 i think...

Audio is nice, it's kinda clear, but not that good, dont know what it is.

Movie, havent watched it.

Video: 7/10 (for a TC i expect more)
Audio: 7/10
Movie: -

Posted by GRAVESTORM on 06-25-2006 07:15 PM:

After scanning through the whole release the video is very good but the audio seems very filtered and a few times noticed it cut into cam audio very echoey but still understandable 1hr 24 mins it is very noticeable.

V - 9
A - 7 (good but has it's bad flaws like cutting into cam audio)
M - (not watched yet will edit when watched fully)

vid - 9
aud - 9
mov - 8


Posted by Vampire on 06-25-2006 08:39 PM:

Video was very good, audio was a bit sketchy at times.

V: 9
A: 7
M: ?? (only skimmed through the release)


Posted by xprog on 06-25-2006 08:48 PM:

Video is nice and clear, good colors. nothing bad from what i could tell.


Audio is direct, and clear sounding. An occational audio pop. There are a couple times it cuts into CAM audio. Example at 1:23:38 for 5minutes its CAM audio. Not entirely bad cam audio just distracting from the movie.



9/7(8 if it was direct audio through the entire film)/8


Posted by cherwonk on 06-25-2006 10:18 PM:

The video on this real good , the sound is decent all the way to the last 7 minutes, at that point it goes dull and comes back till about 3 minutes to the end where its real muffled for another 1 1/2 minutes . overall its decent but still lost a piont on the sound


8.5/ 6.5/6

Does the diminished sound interfere with the ending of the film, or can you still tell what's going on?


Posted by alexpb1 on 06-26-2006 03:06 AM:

V: 9
A: 7 (sketchy near the end)
M: started out good, but the ending was a huge disappointment. I hate fucking movies like this.


Posted by protekt0r on 06-26-2006 03:30 AM:

Good TC (no surprise though, it's Asteroids!). Colors are a bit washed out, but otherwise it's perfect. AR is good and there's no cropping. Audio is great too... I browsed through it and didn't see any sync issues.

8/9/?

that describes the audio situation very well ... I'm glad I was expecting it, because it was pretty jarring. It is possible to make out the dialog, though, if you strain your hearing or crank up the receiver


Posted by dwayne on 06-26-2006 05:15 AM:

yeah about the sound its what he said.....i had to turn it up it seems like they use cam audio to fill the gaps

very nice video, audio has problems stated above. overall good job asteroids, sawit in theaters, very funny.

v: 9
a:7
m: 8


Posted by shineget on 06-26-2006 07:33 AM:

pretty decent tc, as we have come to expect from steroids. picture isdecent through out, if a little washed out. The audio is decent too, except at time were cam audio is used, for about 30 seconds at the end (1:35:30 - 1:36) it sounded like i was watching the film under water.
The film itself wasn't great, interesting twist on the traditional rom-com story though.

Overall 8/6 (only dipped because of the small cam parts, otherwise 8 aswell)/6


Posted by God Of War on 06-26-2006 07:38 AM:

good TC but the sound at the end fucks everything up .... pretty good video tho...

i really hate fuktards who do not watch the movie but feel they have to rate it anyway.
how the hell can u say video looks nice, sharp and clear, then turn around and give the video a 7 saying u expect more for a tc? WTF. you are such a noob, because TC do not come much better than this in terms of Video you retard. give the video a 9 at least for a TC.

:: STRIKE TWO - D


Posted by MrGonzo on 06-26-2006 10:08 AM:

To me this has got to be one of the best TC ever made, I think not even that far from DVD quality aside from the audio which is good but not great this is an awsome release!

V: 9
A: 7.5
M: ?? (Haven't seen it yet)

Well i'm comparing it to a good TS (cars for example) and then i expect more for a tc. This maybe is only slightly better than the cars ts picture and since this is a tc, i expect more, so i give it a 7.
This is a 9. Try giving rates in perspective...

please sir, could you define the word "fuktard"?

anyway, nice release

v 9 (very clear. colors are slightly washed out compared to what the original film would look like, but nothing bad. no pixelation either, which is good. i too agree with the A/R choice )

a 7 (cuts in and out of cam audio in areas, but seeing as how the last release was a cam, its still a preference. direct parts are clear and clean)

m 7 (its "alright", there are better vince vaughn movies e.g dodgeball)

thanks ASTEROiDS, on par with maVen as usual

encoding software is the equivalent of The 404 going on a diet and walking thru the door. takes longer and sometimes more skill, but ultimately worth it.


Posted by Skyclad on 06-26-2006 04:01 PM:

Video is great.
Audio is taken from the LRC TS.
Sync is good.
Movie... if you like this kind of movies, it might be fun.

Overall, good job.

/edit
Misses some footage! (about 15 seconds- around 12min. at the family-table-dinner-something-scene)
How's that possible with a TC? Due to the syncing process..?
Don't know about nuking... that seems a little bit over the top.
Would be a pitty if it got nuked though.


Posted by paulbrown on 06-26-2006 05:56 PM:

V=9

A=7 (For reasons given)

M=7


Posted by Andrew1 on 06-26-2006 05:59 PM:

Great release awesome quality ASTEROiDS has proven to be 1 of the best out there


Posted by David06 on 06-26-2006 07:52 PM:

Damn this is near copy i thought it was a dvdscreener.The colors are nice no flicker and the audio is super clear.just at the end for like a minute the audio gets a little distorted but its great.

Video: 9
Audio:8
Movie:7


Posted by iljs on 06-26-2006 08:15 PM:

:: blah blah blah oh my god people have opinions that differ from mine i must rant on the internet about it

/rant complete

Video - 8 Nice TC, much better then omen and such
Audio - 6 Spells of cam audio
Movie - 6 Ok, but its no Wedding Crashers.

Wonder if a "mavenesque" group will release the Poseidon TC that professional russian pirates have done. I cant wait cause it would make them so leet!!!


Posted by ROUSTABOUT on 06-27-2006 04:28 AM:

i can't bitch

not perfect, but pretty damn good, plenty watchable..sound is not perfect, but since its a comedy, so i can live with it..if this was superman..either way, props to the group, and ty



v:8
a:6.5
m:8


Posted by PaND on 06-27-2006 10:42 AM:

Just watched this release. No complaints at all. The sound loses it's "quality" in 2 spots but that only lasts for about 30 seconds each.

A keeper until a dvd source comes.

v 7
a 7
m 6 (average movie. has some laughs)

V: 8 (pretty good, a little washed-out, reminds me a lot of a vhs screener, quality is definitely worth the download)

A: 6 (majority of movie is clear and crisp, cuts to cam audio for about 4-5 minutes near the end of the movie, nothing too distracting)

M: 7 (not sure I would classify this as either a chick flick or a comedy, a lot of the humor was pretty dark; certainly worth the download if you're a fan of Jon Favreau)


Posted by mstp on 06-28-2006 09:05 PM:

v 9.
a 2.


hard to understand what they are saying
not direct audio hook up

V=8
A=7
M=7

Nice TC, a few issues with sound going low, but it doesn't go out completely so you can hear whats going on. The movie was pretty funny, actually Vince Vaughn was funny. A nice TC!


Posted by MunkeyBoiy on 07-03-2006 01:23 PM:

Good for TC. Audio must switch to cam towards end. Still watchable.

V - 7
A - 6 (Because of audio towards end)
M - 7

Decent movie, Vince Vaughn can pull a laugh or two.

Audio towards the end goes a bit weird. Like someone tripped over a cord and pulled the direct line out . Then it gets good again, then it gets bad again. Good quality over all. Not some amatuer cam.
