meh...gj TcS, im gonna grab this one.

9/9/?

why do u need to get a quality rating anyways? its TcS and a dvd screener. We know what to expect of this.

I thought it was great(watched the telesync). However I have a feeling most of the people who post/visit this forum will probably bash it. It's a little slow, but if you like philosophical films then take a chance.

I haven't seen this release, though(Re: Quality).

i think the movie sucked ass =P

damn good movie...thx for the rls

The movie is too silent and uneventful for most people to like it. But i loved it, and i'm so glad a dvd screener is out.

woohoo

Don't know about the quality of the this release but its a damn good movie, one of the best of the year. Its not for people who like stupid action packed steven segal fake kung fu wannabe good but very lousy movies like XXX. its a deep movie, if your a complete dumb ass don't watch it cause you won't understand it. For those who aren't dumb asses watch it, you may like it.

I'm a dumbass...

Hey, I am offended...

I'm a dumbass and I liked this movie.

What gives?

Yeah, people who think for themselves and dont like something you do are stupid.
This movie was a piece of crap, slow pointless Stanley Kubrick wannabee POS.
You want deep and thought provoking/intellectual? Watch adaptation and be blown away.

PS; fuck you parasite. Your handle is appropriate

Adaptation vs Solaris

Adapatation?

Man... that was a great movie BUT how much more pointless can you get.

It was intellectually entertaining, it just wasn't intellectually stimulating (like they intended).

The best part was watching Nic Cage play such a different type of role.

He really is a versatile actor.

Solaris?

great movie with dorky actors. I think they should have rewrote the screenplay to be 'Dusk til Dawn part 31214' with those actors.

Some people don't understand it because it's not a really good adaptation of the book, maybe they cut the explanation at the end of the book on purpose which I think it wasn't a good idea

You seemed to have missed my point, I never said anyone had to like it, I think people should THINK. most people in general do not, thats why alot of movies like kangaroo jack, xxx, and many more movies where you don't have to use your brain come out. To be quite honest i saw adaptation that was a damn good movie, in my top 5 for the year. I have talked to quite a few people who have seen Solaris and didn't understand it. The question is why didn't they understand it? the movie is suppose to leave you with a wonder not a deffinate answer. Thats another reason some people don't like it.
The world would be a better place if people thought for them selves, instead we have movies like the fast and the furious comming out and kids try to be like the movie, another pointless but entertaining film. kids who try to act like the movies do not have thought for themselves. thats what todays youth is growing up on. if more thought provoking movies came out maybe people would start to think more. then again maybe not.
Oh thank you, i'm glad you feel the same way i do. "Your handle is appropriate."
No i'm off to get the movie. later all.

The movie was terrible. I consider myself pretty tolerant when it comes to bad cinema, but I left the theater half way through this one.

Just because you make a movie look like its thought provoking, doesnt mean it is. I could stare at a bidet and give you some kind of life lesson but it would be total bullshit. Some times people look for words of wisdom in the wrong spots. like a bidet for example.

movie sucked. like a 3.
quality... its a screener.

I saw the FTF of this when it came out, and i just finished this one. I really liked the movie, as others have said though, it's not for everbody. It is slow paced and there isn't alot of action, but the acting and storyline are excellent. Thanks for the great release TcS!


9/8/9

Great movie, for the intelligent tho

watched the first disc and i got bored. but i watched it again from the beginning again and its seem more interesting... not the best movie of the year.

anyone into action will hate it -period.

exactly, that was one of my points all along

Just checked-- looks like this release is missing the 20th-Century-Fox logo, then the Lightstorm Ent. logo and then a few seconds of black screen with rain sounds in the background. That seems to be it-- there aren't any credits in the film.

Dunno if this matters much-- maybe the screender DVD came that way?

nothing

you guys are in luck you didn't miss any part of the movie at all, it was said in an earlier post. the only thing missing is the 20th century logo, and lightstorm, and a few seconds of a blank screen and you hear noise, thats it. you missed none of the movie at all. so you guys are in luck.

i dont think this movie was bad

i saw it in theatures

the problem with this movie, its that its not a movie that really ment to be "stimulating" in any way

its odd and unsusual

and its a brain twister

see the original movie from the 70's

but i will give my thumbs up to this movie because it was beautiful and acutually made me cry for some reason

but it contains no action at all
no hero

and the point of the movie(the book) if you know it is that the planet is acutally a giant brain pretty much

and that there is no god, blah blah blah

damn communist sci-fi based story.. wierd fucked up shit

?/?/8

Does anyone get blocky kinda colored squares that pop up occasionally? I watched CD1 on my Apex and it was driving me crazy, never seen that before. Maybe it's cause of the cheap player/bitrate? I'll try it in the Sony I guess, if anyone else has had this problem I'd like to know.

great quality great sound movie suked.....i like philosophical movies that make u think but the writers took a story line for a 30 minute film at the most and spread it to the length of the movie.....they stretched alot...adding in scenes that repeat (memories). i don't wanna say to much and ruin the movie fro ne one else.
10/10/3

movie of the year fo sho...

the russian 1930 one is much better, even tho it's black and white and you have to read the subtitles. heh. this one sucked.

btw, there is no opening credits

which is something i liked about this movie

Video and Audio are just fine. On the other hand the movie stinks. I'm not sure there really was an ending, and you don't get to learn squat about any of the characters except you do get real up close and personal to Clooneys ass.
Good rip and all otherwise
Mr Sin

Video & Audio quality was very good. Thumbs up TCS!

*SPOILERS*
I liked this movie. Soderbergh was definately going for the Kubrick/2001 feel. I didn't care for the Clooney ass shots but... oh well. I also think I would've been a little more freaked out about seeing my dead wife again. And then I would've asked her/it about a 100,000 goddamned questions. And that bearded dude, what was with all the annoying hand gesturing? I wanted to smack that f*cker! Anyway, it twas a good sci-fi mystery movie.

9/9/7

If there are deep philosophical undertones in this film then could someone please elaborate on what they are?
There didnt really seem to be anything much that happened?

It did actually provoke some philosophical thoughts in my mind
- I think I'm bored, therefore I am

Other people seemed to have enjoyed it though and the quality was fine so good release all the same.

T

nice keep up da good work

7/7/8
