to be honest... i really cant tell if its a dvdrip from only 1 rar... i mean the visuals look a bit soft, but that could easily be down to the fact that it IS a long movie and it does have ac3 5.1, but ill tell you one thing... if it doesn't have scrolling property msgs or b&w scenes, and even if it IS an unmastered dvd release or a really really good tc... dammit i dont care because this is excellent quality and sound. my advice, get this release!!

This are screenshots from dvdscr and this release. Can someone check the quality from the dvd. The picture hasn't been cut, the colors look better, so for now I belivie this is a real dvdrip.

[ NUKE ] [ King Kong DVDRiP XViD GOD ] [ oversized(2cd.max.per.runtime.rules) ]


let's all hope for a repack


Posted by FrightfoO on 02-04-2006 07:40 AM:

Well, you've got me. I thought this'd be an auto-nuke as it's 3 CD's for a 187 minutes movie. Isn't 210 minutes minimum for a movie this long if it's gonna be a scene 3CD non-internal release? Like I said, you've got me Rules been changed or something???

Anyways two more pic's:

Posted by demon1300 on 02-04-2006 07:47 AM:

Guys, any idea of where to grab the torrent?? I know i shouldn't be asking but its seem to be un-findable!! Also the overall size does sound a little strange...
Cheers, Rob


::EDIT:: Whoops... I took a shit on your forum account. Read the rules, cunt - NS::


Posted by dontgiveafuck on 02-04-2006 08:27 AM:

it's suspicious when a dvdrip comes right after a dvdscr.
this had 'fake' stamped all over it.

the sample isn't that great either. you see fuzz and pixellation around the edges of the characters' faces.
I think 3 cd's is fine. 640 pixel width would be better.
quality would be crap on 2 cd's.


Posted by chiv on 02-04-2006 09:45 AM:

then the question is... how did they get rid of the 'property of...' messages? or were there 2 dvdscr's, one that was ment to be internal and one to be sent out? this group managed to grab an internal?


Posted by sirmonkey on 02-04-2006 11:08 AM:

this is truely a fake.. they cropped the scrolling text out of it.. i just watched it side by side with the dvd screener.. and its a lot narrower then the dvd screener..

lol@Rob, apparently you need acsess to releases before you can claim its unfindable... and saying " I know i shouldn't be asking ..." should stick to what ya know and dont ask...

as for this Realease the 5.1 is a plus ... and no marks is nice.. DVL's XviD of the Awards DVD Screener was fine enough, i highly doubt this is a retail DVD, as they would be in a vault still...
odds are it is just another markless Studio Screener like 'Sahara' and 'I, Robots' ect ect... to avoid Nuke; Dupe they claim it to be a retail dvd.......... and until i see the DVD-R i wont beleive it

V-10 great ) definitely worth the re download )
A-10? hopely great cant say until GSpot tells me it's really Ac3 5.1
M-5 i wanted the Hobbit to be filmed before King Kong, a 5 for making me wait til 2007 for 'The Hobbit 2007 Extended Edition'

How come the pics in Hostars post were (99%) the same then, he claims they're from the different releases?


Posted by chiv on 02-04-2006 11:54 AM:

comparison screenshots to show overcropping please anyone?

edit:
guess noone else but me is interested in this so meh, anyway, grabbed first rar from both films, have done one comparison and found NO overcropping on the 'dvdrip'... going to try a few other spots, and will post images... so unless someone can post an image showing the dvdrip is overcropped, i just cant understand the nuke... perhaps people are just too doubting and have no real proof? anyway, images to come.

edit 2: ok here are the comparisons. as far as i can tell, if anything, the dvdscr is overcropped on the sides.

the ONLY way the dvdrip could be from the same dvdscr source, is if the group went super-tricky, and actually overcropped ONLY the segments with the property-of labels, and then spliced them back in. if thats what they did, i applaud their creativity for removing an annoyance, without causing any collateral damage to the rest of the film... (though i then frown on their 'dvdrip' bs!), because from the samples ive looked at, there doesn't seem to be any overcropping in the dvdrip... heres the 2 samples taken from cd1, first rar.

this is an ok release, stop nuking guys.


Posted by hostar on 02-04-2006 01:24 PM:

I already did look few posts up. The picture is NOT cropped.


Posted by jbealey on 02-04-2006 02:49 PM:

Good job Chiv, I really dont care whether or not its a dvdscr or dvdrip because its going straight on to a dvd9 so quality will be awesome.

vidio - 9
audio - 9
movie - 10

Ill accept it as a dvdrip for now until someone shows some proof its a fake.

Sure it is, but TDX 2005 rules don't allow it, if everyone broke those rules and got away with it, then what's the point of the rules???

A group could do a 2CD retail DVD rip for the rep, and then a 3CD internal because internals don't need to follow the scene rules.

Anyways the release has been nuked just for being made out of the DVDSCR.

BTW, GOD could've actually zoomed in on the picture on the parts with messages, but left the rest untouched. Tricky fellas.

Try only comparing the parts of the movie which have messages.

I give this release, the following for trying to pull the wool over peoples eyes:

0/0/0


Posted by psychoace on 02-04-2006 04:25 PM:

It's definetly not cropped or zoomed in I just did a side by side comparison and it shows the same exact full frame as the dvdscreener. So it's a very special dvd screener/ somehow digi ripped from a digital theater print/ or an actual dvd rip. So it should only be nuked for being oversized.

Anyway the video quality is great I just hope sometime soon we will have a high def ripping scene for these movies.5.1 audio is nice and i am not really a big fan of the movie so I really wont grade that.


Posted by hostar on 02-04-2006 05:41 PM:

Here are the shots. Judge by yourself but I belive this is a DVDRIP release.

dvdscr1:

All the shots are sinchronized, if you dont belive in the first comparison look at the poles and in the second case look at the hand and the position of the fingers. There is NO cropping. Now as I said before I want a DVD of this release.

Better video and sound than the DVL version, and looks to be a different source than the Screener, so nukers got it wrong again, but whether this is retail or not, no idea, guess we wont know till a DVDR appears.

If you can't see the difference here I really suggest you all book an appointment at the local opticians.

1. Maybe this is a different Screener source, a completely clean one and are trying to pass it off as a retail.

2. Maybe this is retail, even though the release date isn't for a while.

Whatever it is, whoever is in charge of Nuking releases needs to pull their thumb out fo their ass and do some real work.

It was def not DVL source, anyone who bothered to get the release could tell.

Well done Chiv and Redemption for proving this.

Video: 7
Sound: 9
Movie: 8

Video is a bit soft and the compression is not that great considering its on 3CDs, but its not bad either. It's not cropped or zoomed in as some people say.

Sound is great as its 5.1.

Movie was pretty good, length could have been edited a bit, but its enjoyable.


Posted by graham23s on 02-04-2006 09:22 PM:

they would have saved a lot of hassle if they just released the friggin DVDR

this as a dvdrip

Posted by toddler on 02-04-2006 10:33 PM:

I'm normally one for following the rules, but i do think AC3 is under-rated or something.

I have HDTV and 6 Channel Audio setup. I do prefer movies in Higher resolution and i simply love AC3 and DTS. Using mp3 simply does not compare, i believe the scene should allow for rippers that focus on ac3.

Hell, if i find DTS, and Hi-def sources, i usually go with those instead, upto 4 CDs is ok for me (Saving private ryan DTS), quality before anything else.

Rating

7/10/8
Video could be sharper/cleaner,
AC3 is as perfect as usual,
Movie is very good by any standard.


Posted by shawners on 02-04-2006 11:25 PM:

If its a dvdrip, i wished they would of released it as dvd9, or two dvd5's. Otherwise converting the xvid's to dvd format is some what lengthy.

I've got to agree with this.

All the so called "comparison" grabs proving it has not cropped ... the image without the text is clearly thinner than the image with the text IMO.


Posted by data3 on 02-05-2006 01:30 AM:

Sirmonkey, I'm sorry, but your'e argument is plainly flawed. You arent taking into account the fact that the DVDrip is in fact encoded at a slightly lower resolution - 608x256.
The DVDscr is encoded at 624x272, which as im sure you can see is 16 pixels taller a picture, which accounts for the DVDrip screenshots being smaller.
When looking to see if the picture has been cropped, dont look at the size of the picture, look at the details in the picture. When you do that, you will see that there is no cropping at all, in fact, the DVDrip shows a bit more picture to the right and left.

In regards to this rip, quality looks pretty good, i may have no idea where they got this from, but it most certainly is a clean dvd source.
9/9/9ish


Posted by FrightfoO on 02-05-2006 01:55 AM:

I doubt this is retail (how could it be, there's not even a set date for the retail release of this major blockbuster), probably just a cleaned up russian tc/bootleg, hehehe.

Best animation for a big gorilla ever btw . Mighty Joe Young is the next, but that's hilariously bad in comparison :P . Notch up another award for the sfx people.

You're missing the point, those images show exactly the same footage, no image difference, they both show the exact same details in each screen - one has a scroller and the other doesn't.

Your whining about screen capture size, get some balls and brain.

This and the Screener have different resolutions, so the pics will be different sizes, you could resize them both to the same size, but thats a pain in the arse to do when your just wanting to do a quick comparison, and can lose a bit of quality.

This isnt from the DVD Screener, though i doubt its retail, im thinking another Screener floating about.


Posted by john83 on 02-05-2006 06:36 AM:

this was nuked for being oversized, not for lying about its source. so why all the tripping about it being nuked?
it does break the oversized rule, and rules are rules, so its rightfully nuked.

Posted by ayot on 02-05-2006 01:43 PM:

NOT CROPPED

For all who think the picture is cropped beacuase of the text... Well, IT IS NOT. The screening text depending on the movie is at the bottom of the screen or between screen and black bars. Original MPEG2 ready for encoding is in most cases in 4:3 format. From that field the actuall screen field is cut and then encoded. If there is screening text is it automatically cropped but THE TEXT ONLY. Movie window is untouched.
People who do encoding know what I mean.

oh come on now, its definately not a tc... please...

its an unmarked dvdscr... i think it should be nuked, because 'dvdrip' to me, means retail, which this IS NOT - i can see certain scenes where the image seems to shift, almost like its degrading or having some other problem (cd3, zoom in on kong face, is an example of this) - it is NOT a retail dvd source, so for THIS reason it should be nuked, NOT for any cropping reasons...

and vcdq's new 'upgraded' nuke of oversized is a bit silly... yes groups should stick to rules, but what good are rules if they will be severely detrimental to the quality of the release? you say what good are rules if noone follows then, i ask what good are rules when, in some cases, they severly damage the quality of the film being released. i believe the rules should be followed, but in some extreme cases should be bent, and this is definately one of those times... no 5.1 on a movie like this and only 2 cds? why bother releasing the film at all then...

and re: picture size 'questions' as stated this is due to a lower resolution, and a 'less accurate, but more widely used' ar of 2.375... the 'dvdscr' release had a SLIGHTLY different resolution. check the pictures posted, for the last time, there has been no overcropping! if anything, as i said before, the dvdscr was the rlz that was overcropped on the sides


Posted by White Rabbit on 02-05-2006 05:31 PM:

i couldnt give a wank about oversizing, if you burn/convert xvid movies to dvd like me then the more oversizing the better.

v 10 (retail or not, why the fuck am i gonna bother upgrading an unmarked screener to the real retail rip? answer: im not. this is a perfect xvid imo and nothing less)

a 10 (5.1, whats wrong with that)

m 9.5 (it dragged a bit at parts but what 3 hour film doesnt? this is an excellent flick)


thanks GOD for this clean rip, and the best yet. and the 'more to come' comment in your NFO sounds very interesting!

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.

amen..yeah when neccessary the nuking is invaluable..on this release i have to agree wholeheartedly with white rabbit (appart from movie rating...7 for me mainly cause of the ice skating routine). its a damned fine release and glad i didn't bother with the screener.
keep em coming god.

Posted by pedantics on 02-12-2006 10:28 AM:

scene rules should be revised to allow for 3 disc rips of movies this length - 2 discs with this sound, and it'd be macroblock city.

this is a keeper

Good compromise and since, again I've seen no retail DVDR it just further says that it's definitely not a retail DVD rip.


Posted by Iammyself on 02-16-2006 07:40 AM:

great rip... It took me a minute to watch this, as i really dont like the movie, although having this copy over a week, i didnt want to waste 2 1/2 hrs again...

I finally took a look and Its damn decent, If not a retail, its more like Shrek 2 DVDrip that got an early rls, like a WP of a DVD or sumthing...

The video is a bit, umm... i guess pixelated is right, but its not quite what I see, there is something wrong with it being a DVD rip, its just not as clear, maybe a dvdscr unmarked (to the naked eye) either way its the best out and def not a cropped dvdscr, some guy posted some pics earlier in the thread, and you could see scr msg over the tv, but this didnt have it even though slightly smaller than dvdscr pic... oversized is no problem although I think a 2cd rls woulda did good, and woulda had no nuke (or sheepish ones)... The sound is great...

now to the bad parts.. this just wasnt my taste of a movie, it starts slow, speeds up, and then lasts too long, and ends, well, too long of what it should, given that its not much diff than the original, this woulda been a decent flick with 30 mins shaved from it...

oh well i got an opinion which really doesnt like oscar flicks that are drawn out too long... so for this flick (the CGI isnt that great really, but its the movie i care about) i rate it 8/8.5/6


Posted by T0TAL-RECALL on 03-15-2006 01:58 PM:

Its a DVDScr unmarked...

If you were to put this on 2disc it would be crap... 3disc makes this one very good.

BUT... You could get the SoT release instead.

The image below is GoD at the top and SoT at the bottom... I played these at the same time side by side and frame matched for the screen grab.

http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/4548/kong20052up.jpg

As you can see GoD release is faded compared to SoT release... Both are 3disc.


Posted by tycho55 on 03-16-2006 06:47 AM:

I can vouch for the King.Kong.2005.iNTERNAL.DVDRip.XviD.AC3.SoT 3CD release as well. Very nice!
