From the sample:
v9
a8
m?

v9
a9

i got 3.55gb of this but stopped it cos apparently its nuked

REASON-bad.video.starting.1h.36m.47s

shame cos video and audio looked very nice going by the sample

Video goes pixelly for like one second, people need to get a grip, would they prefer 2 hrs of dvd screener quality with a ONE SECOND fault, or 2 hours of unnuked cam crap.

unsure what rar the nuke says the bad video begins but ive grabbed r79 and didnt see any problems i assumed that was past an hour and 36 min..

v=8.5 (would be 9.5 if werent for glitches)
a=10 clear crisp and in sync
m=8.5 good film (would rate it higher if it were in english lol)

all in good release especially so early dont think we will get a proper anytime soon so will keep this. if your that bothered about glitches dont grab it or clip the bad few secs out as it is at a point that wont show too much ( or the r5 due in week or 2)

just remember its free people

---

The glitch is about 5 or 6 seconds long, it breaks up to high hell, but then it runs perfectly after that, and it isn't anything overly crucial.

v/8
a/9
m/9.5

good stuff

v-9
a-9
m - ? (gonna watch later)

Personally speaking if i cracked that encryption i wouldn`t brag about it, keeps `people` unaware.

Watermarks or B&W Scenes

Can anyone post whether or not there are any watermark crawlers or B&W scenes?

Apocalypto

Ther are no watermarks or B&W screens in this. Just a slight pixalation at about 1:36: and change otherwise perfect quality. No audio sync problems with pixalation.

Where's wally

hey did anyone else notice that theres an edit on this release. at about 131 mins in when Jagur paw is running out of the corn theres a guy standing on the body's in a wheres wally costume. u have to freeze and slow move the DVD but he's there. Whats that all about?

V9
A9
M7

Ta

The Glitches happen for more than 10 secs, and they occur twice.

It lasts for about 1 min at the very end and is a bit offputting so im only giving the video a 7

7/9/8

is this the same source as the iMBT xvid? Just curious because both say they have video glitches on cd2 was wondering if one has more then the other though. Thanks.

:: Mod Edit: R-e-l-a-x :: -L


The glitches definately don't last for a minute, more like a few seconds each. The glitches don't occur in a crucial part of the film and don't send the audio out of sync.

Great release TGP, keep them coming. Nobody cares about a couple of glitches, if the quality is this good.

9 - (Couldnt give it a perfect because of the glitches)
10 - (Perfect)
8 - Original. Mel Gibson has some good ideas.

Did some of the chase scenes in the film remind anyone else of Rambo first blood? lol

great release!! the glitches only last for a second or two and dont effect the movie at all.

v = 9
a = 10

solo81 your right!! but wally must have been added by the studio or an editor because its been done on the set WALLY SCREEN GRAB !! mad or what.

Well if wally is real, it might be a watermark put on by the s-view player, if that is how the screener got recorded, and by the way there are watermarks on the release, blurred lines at top and bottom of screen every so often.

I just got done watching this & wow, what a great movie!!
The glitches mentioned do not in any way spoil the movie. Sure, clean copies are nicer, but i'll certainly keep this one until retail even if a 'proper' comes out (Not worth it imo for a few secs of the movie to d/l another version).

Overall, very enjoyable, great sound, beautifully filmed & the transfer to DVD still looks great (apart from the couple of seconds glitch),

V 8 (only 'cos of the glityches)
A 10 - Gotta love 5.1
M 10 - AMAZING MOVIE!

JM

p.s.
To the many people I noticed chatting about this on some IRC chans about how it's not worth watching as it's not in
English, pls do watch this movie & don't diss it just 'cos it's not in English!!

Excellent film

V 9
A 10
M 10

The Where's Wally frames are definately a subliminal advertising ploy. You dont see them because they appear and dissapear so quickly but the subconcious mind spots it. I read on a forum elswhere that while watching the film, some people were reminded of Where's Wally, then i spotted this thread and now know why!. With the film due out, great to have it stuck in peoples minds.................................

J

V / 9.5
A / 10
M / 10

Get's 9.5 due to some pixelation at a critical action scene

Can i give 11 for the movie ??

Have now watched this 3 nights on the trot. Some of the tracking shots are awesome. If this does not win an Oscar then i'm moving to France to grow onions

I could rant about this piece of shit film all day, but I won't.

For the release:

V=8 (some pixelation and a small glitch)
A=9 sounded great on the TV
M=2 Long, boring, political statement. Ended just as it should have been getting started. The entire film should have been 45 minutes, tops.

__________________

The only real problem is the small section where the glitches happens and a few scenes full of action running through the forest where pixellation goes very bad - far too busy a scene for the encoding - but it is over two hours long.

Still, a standard story and not too clever a script, but different from most other offerings. V-8, A-9, M-8

V: 9 (because of glitches)
A: 10 (nice and crisp)
M: 9 - I liked it

This movie is very similar to The Naked Prey with Cornel Wilde. It took place in Africa. Whatever you think of Mel Gibson..he makes a hellova good movie.

re apocalypto screener

excelent movie ! broke up for about 7 secondes 3/4 way through but carried on.(at the black panther scene)
quality was excellent
movie...9/10
quality 9/10
sound 10/10



get it..fantastic

Good Screener - Downloaded ages ago but only watched it last night.
I had one lot of pixelation glitches at about 1:40 but it did not spoil the film at all. Sound was good - well worth a watch

V = 9 (because of glitch)
A = 10
M = 9
