Centropy

Guys you do great work, i wish you'd get the blue out of your stuff, it would be even greater than it is.

Posted by ^Om3n on 05-28-2002 02:38 PM:

Ren? If you are questioning mick4y....
I dont believe thats what they meant, rather that FTF release a good quality quick release, only for Centropy to do a better one the next day.

"Note. There is a slight sync problem that fixes itself at 07:52." - this was in the .nfo -- maybe that's the prob.

I watched about 2/3's of this movie and got sick of it. If this were somewhere to rate on Quality of Movie/Script it'd definatly be a ZERO. The quality of this movie looks the same, as all CTPP releases, Blue/Good quality. All I have seen was a sample though.

if you only watched the sample how could you have watched 2/3s of the movie? kind of odd

Posted by RedDwarf on 05-28-2002 08:40 PM:

Goddamn, does anyone watch entire movies before commenting?

Posted by PrinceDerrick on 05-28-2002 09:35 PM:

man i wish ctp would release all their releases like they did the New Guy... now that was a great rip... it was fullscreen ( on the tv ) and had nice colors... not this blue crap

Posted by liquid on 05-28-2002 10:08 PM:

movie

i guess i will post a meaningful post to help shed some light on the relevant information _supposed_ to be contained in these forums.

audio source is very good for ts
video is very clear however very blue
i think it is watchable

it is about the same as the other one they had laying around

now, on to more irrelevant information?

I've heard the movie is good yet here ppl disagree. what is the verdict?

Posted by gizmo2431 on 05-28-2002 11:00 PM:

movies

he might have actually gone to the movies and seen the movie

not sure though.

Posted by darkslide on 05-28-2002 11:01 PM:

i loved this movie... this was a good release better then the really dark ftf version (still a ok release).... half the time you couldn't tell what the fuck you were looking at.

i like centropy but why does every release of theirs that is svcd have to be 3 cds? the 2cd vcd screeners by teg are of better quality. centropys releases are still good quality but the blue tint and ar could be better. if centropy themselves would encode/re encode the movie like someone else will do and take out the blue tint and fix the ar their releases would be great instead of good. and as for this movie, quality isnt bad, only seen the sample but it still has the blue tint

Posted by Lsd on 05-29-2002 12:11 AM:

watch the movie release before commenting on it

dont make yourselves look dumber then you are

for some of you... that may be a stretch... but at least try it!

Posted by fry cook on 05-29-2002 12:23 AM:

Funny I am flashing back to the old centropy releases... back around training day, and Thirteen Ghosts. They had the same issues of the Blue tint. Not sure how they fixed it before, but hopefully they will again. Overall though I like these releases I can deal with the blue for now. It still beats the other releases that have come out lately from other groups. Keep up the good work centropy, but beware the blue.

Posted by aXs-SVCD on 05-29-2002 12:47 AM:

Good Release, Have no Complains Just waiting for More Releases from This aWsome Group

This release is 2 cds, actually. And teg's screeners are (usually) of better quality because they come from a studio-made video master tape: not from a theater situation, which is far more difficult to do.

If you took the time to read the .nfo files you would have noticed why they are 3cds. "Centropy SVCDs go from 2cds to 3cds at the 113 minute mark" or something to that affect.

Also, you might like to read the sticky about the source types.

No one lately watches full movies, we just like to comment on them and the movie does have a bad orah, as you say. I saw the coemercial and didnt like it from the start.

And FTF releases are not that bad... but centerpy is much better.!

Well the Jpg of this from Centropy looks good, not going to bother DL-ing it, I got FTF's rls and watched it, wasnt any good quality, and Centropy we know most of the time is. But this movie wasnt even worth a second copy to DL. the movie IMO gets a 3 its not even worth a second look at it, really sad.

yes i know. that is kind of my point. the screeners are a better source then the ts's but yet the ts's are being released in svcd. until ctp or anyone gets a camera that will record in the theatres at better quality then vhs tapes, which i dont think is going to happen anytime soon, they should stick with vcd. oh well, they are doing a nice job anyway.

Posted by PenisXX on 05-30-2002 01:26 AM:

picture: angle is annoying at times, too much blue, focus is good. 2 times you see heads, hehe.

sound: first 7 min out of sync, treble changes during whole movie.
all in all, an ok ts, nothing more, nothing less.

Posted by Loony23 on 05-30-2002 01:45 AM:

i think i'll wait for the reencode with less blue

Good point, the higher resolution has been worth it on some of the SVCD TSs, but not all.

Posted by Kramerica on 05-30-2002 05:07 AM:

I saw this movie in theatres opening night. I will have you know that this is an excellent film. I don't think it is as good as Christopher Nolan's previous works (Following & Memento), but still well worth watching (as most critics would agree). As far as the blue tint is concerned, I have not seen CTP's release, but I will tell you that the whole blueishness is inherent in the movie. I guess Nolan just doesn't want to transition completely from B&W to Color (Following (B&W)=>Memento (Color/B&W)=>Insomnia (Tinted look))...I will have to download MEDiAMANiACS rip of the original Norwegian film to see how the remake stands up

Posted by jonno on 05-30-2002 01:40 PM:

i dunno what all the bitchin is about,concerning bad ar,and blue tint.Maybe some people need to get a better t.v. or dvd player,cos it looks perect on my Sony 32 DPL.
movie is excellent,sound is great,as is the picture.
as for the sync problem,it's only in the first 7 minutes of cd1,then it's ok after that.
stop moaning about ar's,and blue tints,and svcd/vcd.........just download the movie,and remember this........YOU ARE GETTING THIS FOR FREE.

Posted by ^Om3n on 05-30-2002 04:15 PM:

Jonno, who is bitching? (i dont see any). Blue tint, AR and sync problems, is that not exactly the kind of thing that is meant to be commented on here?

Also, i believe Kramerica already established that the blue tint is intentional.

Finally got the chance tonight to watch this release on my standalone. It played well on my dvd player. Video for this was to me was about average telesync. The audio was okay except for a couple glitches here and there. The movie was good. I never have seen robin williams play that type of character. Also I have never seen him die in a flick before. I recommend this release for anyone who hasnt got it yet.

Posted by `maxwe||` on 06-03-2002 07:07 AM:

good release...sound clips a few times, 1st 7 or so min is out of sync but other than that it's good.

You should check out 1 hour photo...another williams psycho movie. it kinda drags but the overall movie is good. there was a workprint or screener for it that came out a cpl months ago ( it hasn't gone to theaters yet).

Posted by Diezel on 06-04-2002 04:13 AM:

Jonno

Jonno chill b

Bitching is this "I hate these fucking blah blah blah and their blah blah blah, why can't they make this shit come out faster, and fuck all these slow ass dumps, I want more than 200k/sec"

Those are the words of some kiddies...

What people here are doing is saying the aspects of the movie and how it was made

Posted by fluffykiwi on 06-17-2002 04:34 AM:

First off, thanks for posting about the fate of the robin williams character, you nearly ruined the movie, i thought this place was about the quality of the releases not about trying to ruin the movie by giving away the plot.

Now back to topic.

The quality of this IMO is as follows on my standalone dvd player.

Video quality very good the aspect ratio was off, norm now for centropy releases, slightly better under PAL than NTSC but still noticably off, this time characters appeared too wide whereas in ep2 they were too thin NTSC was better there, weird.
I didnt particulary notice any bluish tinge, but it sounds as if it might be in the movie a bit like the matrix green tinge.

The audio was way out for about 10 minutes for me but came back to be reasonable, still very slightly out in my opinion for most of the movie, but we're talking milliseconds not enough to spoil it for me, it did fade out and back a couple of times as well.

Id give it about a 7.5 overall maybe lower due to the sound probs.

Once again well worth the download and thanks to the release group.

Posted by diilbert on 06-17-2002 03:02 PM:

Another nice release by Centropy. Video is good, sound is good. What more could I ask for?
I give it a 9/10

Posted by jedi420 on 07-02-2002 10:21 PM:

hey guys, for some reason is the 1st cd a little cut off? because when the 2nd cd starts, its in a different scene.

Posted by Enigma on 07-28-2002 06:34 PM:

My 2nd CD seems to be missing the end of the movie (maybe the last 10-15 minutes??). The .mpg is 688MB.

Does anyone else have this problem?

TIA
