would be nice to read post on the quality of the movie..

not listen to some half witt moaning on about another chap.

my rating on sample.

7-video
7.5-audio
6.5-film

proper was needed!


Posted by mew on 03-10-2004 02:47 AM:

Haha could it be any more obvious that faja is a iMPERiAL member and is between 12 and 14 years old?

*EDIT* Forgot to comment the release: Video is sharp, colorful although a bit on the bright side, one of the best TS of late, and direct audio as usual which doesnt disappoint. Check the screenshots too see how butchered the other one was :/


Posted by GRAVESTORM on 03-10-2004 02:52 AM:

judging from sample
Pic has a slight flickering but nothing serious,audio is brilliant so all round best release so far.
And as for faja get your head out your ass and watch the sample first instead of judging from the jpeg,one last thing stop clogging up the forum with childish posts.

video 8
audio 10
movie dunno yet

ah man, and i just finished downloading the FTF version too! ah well

this release is much better! definatly deserved that proper, might pick this one up instead.

8 - typical flicker, nuttin too distracting, or headache inducing.
9 - direct audio, very nice
X - probably still goin to theaters to see it.


Posted by brr8760 on 03-10-2004 04:13 AM:

Maybe "faja" needs to get back to the nursery before his momma notices him missing.

My sample was messed up-- but I'm gonna get it anyway because VideoCD is (usually) very reliable.

EDIT: YUCK. CD1 is messed up, too. And even if it wasn't, it doesn't look any better than FTF's one week pre. Very disappointing proper. 4/6/8


Posted by King Elessar on 03-10-2004 05:48 AM:

Heard this movie was awesome. On sample...

8/8/?


Posted by NiNe-X on 03-10-2004 07:29 AM:

good stuff



VIDEO 8 bright nice color slight fish eye angle but good stuff

audio 10 perfect

movie 10 good shit

keep up the good work videocd move the cam back a couple rows get rid of the angle and this would be perfect


Posted by Leigh^ on 03-10-2004 08:57 AM:

Clear picture, vibrant colours. Good sound.
Lets hope this isn't a one off, if you know what I mean.

8/9/x

Ok VideoCD has brought us nothing but good quality releases lately. And your talking about this being a one time thing. All there releases have been nice out of the three most current.

Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen..Nice Quality Bad Choice of Film....but they released it and it was great.
Dirty Dancing 2...another good release sound and pic. But again bad choice of film. but great none the less in quality.
now Starsky and Hutch...this is a good proper to the other releases and again great quality and good choice of release...

Overall..
8/9/7 Keep up the good work VideoCD. But they might want to repack cd1 with the complete beginning..its missing about 3mins or more..including the credits

Great Pic & Sound. Vid gets a lilttle flickery in bright scenes but its minor. Also as stated before the first cd start partially into the movie but nothing important is missed. One last thing to point out the subtitles for the part spoken in korean are in french not english (only 3 lines of dialogue)

All in all still a kickass release

8/9/8


Posted by K-FurY on 03-10-2004 08:42 PM:

very nice release, picture is very good, sharp and nice colors, not any very notciable cropping. sound is pretty much perfect, no distortion or interference of any kind. movie was funny, watched the ftf release, but gonna grab this too.

8/9/8

EDIT: Grabbed cd1, a small chunk is missing from the start, still stand by my rating tho, vid goes a bit bright at places, but looks good overall. Anyone notice the title? "Starsky et Hutch". Guess there using a french video source . french subs on disc 2... not a big deal, but still kinda annoying.


Posted by dopeuser8 on 03-10-2004 08:46 PM:

Starsky Et Hutch
missing the first 30 seconds or so, it kinda faded in from being all glichy... its definetly a bit bright too in some scenes, and it flickers a lot
audio is really nice though
not really much of an improvement over ftf's release of this

4/7/6


Posted by Leinie on 03-10-2004 09:11 PM:

You better re-adjust your tv color settings lol

Colors are crisp as can be. Great Release...


Posted by paul333 on 03-10-2004 09:56 PM:

When you say Flickering do you mean the video is very jerky if so then i agree mines jerks like hell and takes away from the releases overall good quality..Take away the jerkiness then its very nice but with the jerking video,the missing start of movie then its just good, imo

paul333


Posted by ghettochild on 03-11-2004 02:02 AM:

Release is far better than ftf, besides the first couple minutes missing...also the german/french(whichever) subs durring the asian bust, and at the end.
but AR, vid, and sound and nice... well done. Good flick too

video 8
audio 8
movie 8


Posted by resetman on 03-11-2004 02:43 AM:

ok haven't gotten cd 1 yet but what i see of cd 2 quality looks excellent....based on video and audio i would rate
video 8
audio 8
i see by previous posts there is some missing in the begining of cd 1....has anyone seen the movie in the theater and is there any important plot set up's missing in the 30 odd seconds or so????


Posted by The-13-Monkey on 03-11-2004 08:00 AM:

I dpn't know spanish with the subbed parts but i do know this is one sweet rip and funny movie

9/8/8


Posted by guardian1128 on 03-11-2004 01:26 PM:

Looks like i'll have to grab this one as well then, does look a lot better than the previous release, the pic looks sharper on it's own.

But the sample is where it's at, let's go click then..


Posted by LOLobo on 03-12-2004 08:47 AM:

Great pic, comparable to TCR.

Very beginning, prior to title scene is missing.

Big F'ing deal.

Starsky et Hutch.

8/8/?


Posted by chrisuk01 on 03-13-2004 12:15 AM:

From Sample

Best release by far. very good picture and sound.

Movie looks good, definately the one to watch if your wanting to see this.

Video - 8
Audio - 9 (very clear)


Posted by [pr] on 03-13-2004 03:02 AM:

yeah the missing beginning kinda sucked but great looking, good sound... funny movie to boot. 8/8/7


Posted by bryehn on 03-13-2004 08:07 AM:

that's a pretty kick ass telesync.

in these dodgy days, a release like this is most welcome.

8/8/6

Finally got around to watching this. Excellent job from VideoCD, I am looking forward to more quality like this.

Video=8 (A little bright / washed out and slightly bad angle)
Audio=9 (This is the way a TS SHOULD sound)
Movie=7 (Overall, a decent flick... Snoop was excellent)


Posted by aznmafia415 on 03-13-2004 08:40 PM:

gotta love this one. good job! funky pixel business during the first few seconds.

8/8/9


Posted by D on 03-13-2004 10:17 PM:

Amazing. I have never seen a better TS.

10/10/9


Posted by jrw on 03-14-2004 04:42 AM:

Nice release ..I couldnt figure out why the framerate was stuttering every few seconds on my PC but it was something to do with PowerDVD , runs flawless on my Xbox.

8/8/8


Posted by Vertrif on 03-14-2004 04:50 AM:

video is nice and so is audo.. 8/8/6.. For some reason i didn't find the movie THAT FUNNY as some people suggested.. And for this release, it's french or spanish subtitles, so sorta sucks when the subtitles are in spanish or french. But other than that, it's cool... the one that you should get is this release and no other..

vertrif


Posted by PRVzippy on 03-14-2004 02:05 PM:

Gotta say, beautiful pic is lovely, perhaps a little bright at some points, but I would much rather light than dark anyday, at least you can see what's going on! Very crisp and with very little motion blur, about as good as TS can get. As for the audio, this really stands out, sounds more like a TC. This is how TS should sound, nice and direct. The subs really aren't a problem and there's not much missing from the start, only about 10 seconds (I watched this at the cinema on Sat so I know).

Based on whole release...

9/10/8

Lovely


Posted by dvdhouse111 on 03-15-2004 01:30 AM:

Really enjoyed this release and was not let down by the quality

Pic - 8 Audio - 9 Movie - 9


Posted by acme420 on 03-15-2004 05:04 AM:

wow best ts ever.

video is great, the bright is a little too bright once or twice when the camera is looking at lights/sunlight

sound is super clear, sounded like surroundsound coming out of the little speakers on my tv.

movie was awesome, very funny.

8/9/9

this is the best release of Starsky on the net atm, VideoCD are bringing us kick ass releases lately. It was deservadly Propered

my 3 cents

9:7:9


Posted by vcd fogie on 03-15-2004 03:32 PM:

absolutely beautiful! thanks videocd =]

just finished watching this rls... 9/10/7. the video was slightly bright, but otherwise perfect. bring it back to the centropy days =] a lesser trained eye would think this is a telecine. only bad thing about the rls is that during the chinese speaking parts, theres french subs..... it has no impact on the movie's story line, you just miss like two jokes.

thanks again guys.... this rls is amazing

excellent pic and sound, taken from a Montreal theater so dont complain about the french you can see it was in Montreal with the text at the end.


Posted by SleepysHell on 03-17-2004 12:46 AM:

video was good but kinda flickery, at least on my apex
sound was good

6/8/8

woulda went higher but that flickering just ruined it


Posted by Joppo on 03-17-2004 05:55 AM:

8/8/5

Great quality release

thought the movie was pants though


Posted by PuFFFaTTy on 03-17-2004 09:29 AM:

8.5/8.5/8.5

Ok now this was a rls that I've been looking forward too, but unfortunately for a Proper, i felt it to be a bit lacking. First of all the Pic is def better than FTF, but only slightly. Seems a bit brighter. The sound is very Direct. However my biggest complaint comes in the fact that CD1 at least for me fades in from a glitch and is missing the opening credits of the movie... A nice try, but only worth a dl if u want better audio.. I'll wait for a screener or a "Real PROPER".. Nice try though.

7/8/8


Posted by KLashNekkOff on 03-18-2004 03:34 PM:

much better than the FTF relese.

Video - nice quality, maybe slightly too bright, however not a problem, keeps quality throughout. No starting credits which pissed me off slightly.

Audio - excellent, no problems at all.

Movie - see my FTF post

8/9/7

The quality of this release is reminicsent of Centropy's. I had the feeling I was watching a Centropy release. Video and audio were NICE. CD1 is missing a bit of the beginning. Also, there was 1 spot on CD1 and another spot on CD2 where artifacts would jump up. Even when I rewound over those 2 spots, I got the artifacts in the same spots. If it weren't for the above mentioned imperfections, I'd give this release a perfect 10 (as far as being a cam).

Video 8.5 / Audio 9 / Movie 7.5

Posted by SeeDee_MKII on 03-21-2004 03:53 PM:

Video 8.5 (9 if first 30 secs there)
Audio 10 (can't get better than DTS on a TS)
Movie 8.5


Videocd head the way in terms of TS DTS audio and apart from the first 30 secs or so missing, should be set as a benchmark for all TS releases.

Excellent

bah, nice release: 7+/8/?


Posted by JonBlaze87 on 03-22-2004 01:39 PM:

This release is sweet and the movie is funny as hell. Vince Vaughn is da man.
Btw I noticed there were french subs during the asian dialog between hutch and the asian dude. I got a feeling this VideoCD group is from Quebec. I might be wrong though. If they are...Nice work my Canadian bretherren
Keep it up

8/9/8

Disappointed with the movie, thought it'd be funnier... oh well.


Posted by eboskie1 on 03-28-2004 11:59 PM:

good quality def worth a watch


Posted by djj on 04-03-2004 08:28 PM:

Really nice release of a surprisingly good movie.
