Typical POT crap.

5/5/x

Posted by jp77 on 10-23-2004 11:38 AM:

same old pot, decent release pic fine but audio could use some work.it's time for pot to get back to telesync's and leave the cams alone.after a while you tired of listening to people sneeze,cough,eat popcorn etc.

pic...7.5

aud...6

movie...8

Posted by proto on 10-23-2004 11:42 AM:

from the sample this looks quite nice. video is a bit grainy but the colours are nice, and generally it looks good. with audio its hard to tell. theres shit all speech until the end of the sample and thats only one word. audio doesn't sound too bad though. normal POT audio...

7/6/-

Posted by generalss on 10-23-2004 01:02 PM:

i think a lot of us have lost focus on what goes on with this stuff.
I for one never really watched Pot cams... but this one is decent. And the time really does matter I don't think, as long as they were the first to rls. Other grps, as per the last few weeks will not if release this until next week.... so I say good job on this one Pot.

Or did we add a new rating column. if so 7/7/?/Time=7

Posted by Marky on 10-23-2004 01:07 PM:

just watched cd 1 colors good for a cam sound also good for a cam after the 12 minute mark first 12 minutes almost unbearable but if you can stand the tinnyness it's worth it whatching cd 2 no will update post in the morning but so far 6.5 vid 5 sound 8 movie chrees pot keep up the good work

From Sample Video is nice colours quite good, audio is a little hollow, you hear it most when the door is slammed, so loud noises could be a problem in full rls. Overall probaly the best I've seen from POT. Probably get nuke tho just cause it is a POT cam.

Posted by Dodgy Del on 10-23-2004 01:25 PM:

this is maybe crap to you but in this line of work beggers can't be choosers.a little praise now and then doesnt go amiss!!. these people are sticking their necks for us and the majority of us appreciate their efforts very much.this group needs praising for the speed of their releases.just wish they could try and better themselves.so,lets praise these groups for their efforts instead of bringing them down.

Anyway,the movie !!

This is definately watchable. Get this if you cant wait!!

Posted by diekund on 10-23-2004 01:52 PM:

little grainy/dark but very nice
sound has the usual cam coughing/munching/speaking audio, but other than that its nice sound
movie looks well good

7.5/6.5/?
cam rating

Posted by Dezzybell on 10-23-2004 02:14 PM:

video is nice. sound is barable for a first copy. It will take a good ts to beat this release. Its seem to me that there gettin better at there video. Ive been reading comments since this site first came on line and finally decided to come on to balance the bashing.

THE REAL 7/5.5/6
cam score

Posted by JonBlaze87 on 10-23-2004 02:29 PM:

sample looks like garbage. Decent colors but thats about it. Audio sux. Wait about a week and if theres no better release than take this I guess. I know I'll be skipping it tho. Movie Deserves better.... Like maybe um....a theater. Have fun watching your shitty cam ppl...

This is not the same movie that was released in the US. This is the original movie made in Japan.

Anywho:Judging from the dvd-r I made

Video - 6
Audio - 5.5
Movie - 8

Saw it the theater last night, good movie but a lil confused at the end.

whats with people slagging off POT all the time. if you dont like their shit then dont download it and dont slag it off, its lame.

yep, its dark and sound is a littile too hollow but if u play around with ya sound settings u can get it to sound better,

6/6/?

Posted by Roger on 10-23-2004 04:44 PM:

How does anyone can say POT risking to put out their release ?
they buy it in the street, BIG RISK.

I agree they made effort on taking the pdvd, making vcd out of this and put it on their site and do site pre.

i guess

anyway i luv POT

Posted by parasiticgann on 10-23-2004 04:57 PM:

Don't get this rls, It's rather horrible, The sound really fucks up in the first disk, Not sure how much, It started right away, and then skimmed to the 11 minute mark and it was still fucking up. So don't get it.

4x2x?

Posted by MTV on 10-23-2004 05:58 PM:

This isnt to bad at all. def watchable. this popped on before fat slags. so i just grabbed & flicked through it.I would say its better than some rls at the mo.

6 . 7 . ?

Posted by Redemption198 on 10-23-2004 06:05 PM:

I only got the sample and only will after viewing it, and the pic is OK, usual grain cause of VCD and a slight angle but ive saw worse.

Sound is OK and its the first Stereo cam ive heard, you hear it when the phone rings, but unfortunately you also have stereo laughing, coughing and eating.

Not bad but the noisy crowd annoys me, and im imagine it gets worse in the "scary" bits.

6/6/?

7 pic fps are good. a lil grainy but overall great colors. there is a weired angle so i nocthed t down from 8 for that. the spped of this release is another reson for a 7.

5 for sound sorry no one like a halow echo tele your releases POT

9 for the movie :P i like sarah and the movie is good

Posted by BLUE-NEO on 10-23-2004 09:37 PM:

from the full release the video is great...the sound is hollow but loud...and you can hear chatter in the background which is very annoying

full release

7 good video /angle not that bad subs cut off..

3 audio...crowd noise ruined this release..even after the first 12 mins of static..the constant chatter, laughing and screaming just like f..ked it up for this release...the video couldn't even save it.

9 movie was very nice..I have the original Ju-On: The Grudge and they are equally nice..

Props to pot....but my goodness the crowd is just a f..k up.

I agree I know POT very well actually. Believe it or NOT they do care what ppl think. and They do risk alot to give us these releases. Mega props to POT for continuing to release watchable CAMS

The pic is dark and grainy as stated, then again so is the film. The audio has some background noise, but about same audio as Ladder 49 i thought. I loved this film. Sam Raimi is the perfect director and its the first decent film Sarah Michelle Gellar has done since leaving Buffy. Once again this is just my opinion, but why tell someone off that helps the scene. Give props where they are do. IF u don't want it don't download it Simple as that!!

6/5/8

Posted by thisisnotkaui on 10-23-2004 10:12 PM:

Ok I sat through the first 11 minutes something of the movie with terrible audio. There isnt much talking so it isnt that bad and it cuts out for a little while until it gets better. Video isnt that bad for a cam and seems to be watchable somewhat from skimming through the video.

The major gripe I have is that the japanese subtitles in some parts of the movie are majorly cropped out and I dont know if they are important or not, I want to read them.

6/6/?

Now this is just classic.

Posted by vip3r on 10-24-2004 12:41 AM:

Haha, yeah. If he DOES know POT, he's an idiot for saying it on here. Noone cares anyways. BTW: You aren't "leet"

Anyways .. this is a nice rip, picture is dark/blurry, sound is clear from what i've seen so far. POT is still kickin ass..i don't care if they get their shit from the street or the theater, i appreciate it either way, because they do it the fastest and best imo.

6/6/?

All in all a good solid watchable cam. Many thanks POT..

Posted by dc_man on 10-24-2004 05:00 AM:

This movie is FUCKED! Glad I saw it in the theatres though this CAM is fucked, people coughing and shit? I don't think so..

6/4/8 (9) for freakyness

Man-o-man, this is a weird cam.... The picture is nice and clear, good colors, but the subs are cut off which is annoying. The sound is bad for the first 11mins (as others have said) but then is nice and clear (for a cam)

As for the movie... man, I thought it sucked!

I'm glad it's not just me because when the movie was supposed to be "Scary" the audience were laughing. Sorry, but I thought the movie was just plain boring, predictable and overall, boring as heck.

Video - 7
Audio - 8
Movie - 3

Posted by madbritfan on 10-24-2004 09:26 AM:

Audio was really bad for the first 11:00 mins. Picture quality not bad for a cam. Audio decent after 12:00 min mark. Subtitles were cut off though. Overall decent and watchable. Movie it self was really good and creepy. Love Sarah Michelle.

6.4/5/8

Posted by carri on 10-24-2004 10:00 AM:

The sound was really bad for the first ten to fifteen minutes, but then it cleared right up. Not too dark at all. Too much audience noise, but still watchable. The video was cut off on the left hand side and the bottom and the subtitles, which aren't used much anyway, got cut off. It's still a pretty good cam. It's watchable.

Posted by Jorel on 10-24-2004 11:03 AM:

audio is absolutely horrible for the first several minutes of the movie. bottom of the movie is cut off so you can't read the subtitles and miss important parts of the plot. lots of laughter and distracting audience reactions.

Posted by gijluiaard on 10-24-2004 11:08 AM:

Very much cut off. Not really their best cam. Do appreciate POT though, they're always first.

7/6/x

Posted by niteg on 10-24-2004 12:32 PM:

indave

Haven't seen the cam, but the movie is probaby the best horror flick I've seen in alot of years. Not sure a cam would do this movie any justice. The whole therator was jumping and people were hinding thier eyes the whole movie.

overall movie is a 9 to me. By the way props to pot though for getting such a quick release of a movie that droped yesterday.

Posted by FastAssEG on 10-25-2004 04:37 AM:

Posted by Hero_of_the_D on 10-25-2004 05:32 PM:

Gotta give em credit, they are quick. Nic pic on this one but the sound it quite hollow and hard to follow in places.
7/5/? - probably wait for better before watching the whole think.
Keep up the work POT, we appreciate it!!

F'king advertisements! This makes me mad. I hate movies that try to sell it as some other person made it! AKA Hero!

Posted by horizonstar on 10-26-2004 12:05 AM:

Hrm ... I dislike POT in general, but I must say that the video quality on this silver is outstanding. Truly a lot better than all the other stuff they've ever released. Please go to the same street corner in Hong Kong for all your future releases, POT!

8/6/NA

Finishing DLing this and I have to say. It looks and sounds better than the nomar POT cam. I've finished converting the rars and now going to watch the movie as a DVD. Thanks POT, even though you don't do many TSs, you still get us the movies quicker than anyone else.

V-6.5
A-6
M-5.5

Posted by Demonhead on 10-26-2004 04:34 AM:

I haven't watched the whole movie, want to see it in theater first. Seems to be pretty decent quality for an early release. Video is slightly unaligned and cropped. Audio is terrible at the beginning.

6/5.5/?

Video was great for a cam, little cropped but hell I could've lived with that, the sound was f@cking awful. I couldn't even watch the whole thing hence the ? for movie rating. I definately still want to see this but I'm waiting for a TS with some good sound, if the cam video was this good though the TS should be great.

Posted by modtang on 11-09-2004 10:53 AM:

Anyone who gave this 5 or more for sound has either got VERY low standards or has never seen/heard a good cam job. This is crap. I can't even watch it the sound is so bad. 20 minutes I tried for and I can't understand a work they're saying. Very disappointing.

5.0/2.0/??

I'm assuming the TS uses the same (crooked) video source.
