just grabbed sample:

video is very nice, maybe even a bit better than their others. also pissed off coz i only got round to downloading the TS-STiNKER copy and burning to disc, which i now gotta replace!

v 9 (very nice, clear, no visable pixelation, minimal amount of artifacts, only prob is the usual where the blacks look slightly grey)

a 8 (usual filtered capture from FM radio drive in, good but a slight hiss and a hint of overfiltering in places)

m ? (still havent watched, waiting to go and see on big screen)

thanks ASTEROiDS

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.

Posted by Redemption1980 on 12-28-2005 02:33 PM:

Looks nice enough, though audio isnt great.

I have just acquired a Sample from a DVD Screener, not got the full release yet, so it might be fake, but looks genuine enough so far.

8/6/?


Posted by graham23s on 12-28-2005 02:44 PM:

i'v heard about this DVDSCR floating about can you post back and tell us if its cotai or not some sources say no

this release 9/9/8 fairly good

Actually there's been a decent TS release out for a week or so now.

King.Kong.2005.PROPER.TS.INTERNAL.SVCD-FiCO

Wasn't too bad if you were able to find it.


Posted by [-BiG_W-] on 12-28-2005 03:06 PM:

DVD Screener is apparently

King.Kong.2005.DVDSCR.XViD-ORP

Not seen it about anywhere though.


Posted by b_3 on 12-28-2005 03:08 PM:

NFO says "Stay (2005)", so either VCDq or ASTEROiDS have made a mistake.

Anyway,

Video: 8 (crisp and clear)
Audio: 8 (very good, but does have some filter artifacts)
Movie: 9 (I loved it)

Anybody got any more news on the DVDScr, I dont wanna download the whole TC if DVDScr will be around in the next few days.

Posted by se7ensoftware on 12-28-2005 03:16 PM:

Nice. bout as good as we are gonna get till DVDSCR. And it appears not to be a KinoFan russian ts! wow! way to go!

If you haven't grabbed anyone grab this one, if not wait and i am sure that DVDSCR will pop up soon

9/8/9

BTW, either that XviD is really slow spreading or it's fake.. no where to be seen. I don't even think the studio has sent out a DVDSCR yet but i am sure they will be sending them soon.


Posted by Anno on 12-28-2005 03:22 PM:

Meanwhile back in the real world..

picture lacks colour
Audio sounds messy in parts.
Overall.. OK, nothing special

7,7,7

@Jackfrost
Are groups really propering internals now?? :\
how fucked up is that.


Posted by b_3 on 12-28-2005 03:32 PM:

Just checked the NFO, it is ASTEROiDS mistake by putting "STAY (2005)". Nforce has the same.


Posted by Brian.Sandro on 12-28-2005 03:32 PM:

Audio seems to have a slight echo to it, and is very bassy to say its a TC.

I Hope not be banned for saying this, but I just watched the ORP Sample and is far better. Everybody should wait for that release

Posted by alluro on 12-28-2005 05:00 PM:

In some sites, you can learn this:

4 Minutes of Kong Online

11/28/05, 10:04 pm EST - Xoanon
Yesterday NBC aired a great 4 minute scene from King Kong. The scene featured Naomi Watts and the big guy himself on Skull Island. Take a look for yourself! The scene has little in the way of spoilers...unless you count an Ann/Kong 'quiet moment' scene a spoiler! (50.5MB AVI File)


This means that the sample of ORP King Kong is a fake.

Sorry to hear that

yeah, they made a mistake in the nfo and that was the nfo rlsed. I suppose the dvd-scr could be out with all the other oscars popping up lately

I watched the whole rls and the video was very nice, audio was allright (no syncing issues), but I miss DTS as always

/edit anyone else find it odd to see a TC without reel changes for a change Guess that's a pretty damn good sign that it wasn't some wannabe TS TC.

9/7/6 (almost fell asleep, looong movie)


Posted by Anno on 12-28-2005 05:38 PM:

All you fools commenting on a "release" that isn't this 1 should fucking read the rules.

Besides the DVDscr is a joke (as are you)
http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/696/bscap0273ip.jpg

Now maybe people will get on commenting on THIS release.

(yeah i know i'm just as bad for making this comment myself but it fucks me off all these twats talking shit about other stuff all the time)

BTW this release is extremly over cropped.

That’s a pretty big exaggeration. There might be a bit cut off the bottom but this rls is pretty well cropped.

first of all, you can clearly see that the text has been edited in to the picture. second, "this copy property..." is kinda crazy. and third, mega companies doesn't permit people to "loan" stuff that costs 200 million dollars. fake fake fake.

NICE work by asteroids. love this.


Posted by noodles on 12-28-2005 06:31 PM:

Nice rls, but apparently its a re-enc of the SWiNE rls? (looks better than that though) + heavy cropping, but very watchable all the same, cheers asteriods.

7/7/8

well, something is off here. i don't know what it is, but the imdb says this movie is in 2.35. the screenshot you showed from the trailer, after cropping the black bars, shows the ar is approx. 1.77. when i watched this movie in theaters, it was in 2.35.

i won't make any speculation, but these are the facts.

I think things are getting a lil too technical here now
iMDB is often wrong, i'm not saying it is now but the fact is, much of the screen is missing regardless of ratio.

When you get the DVDr i'm sure you will see this for yourself in comparison.

The important thing is (like lorddusty said) this version is eminently watchable and by far the best to date.

Sometimes i think we expect a lil too much from our 'free views'

Well if that's what it was shown in theatres as than that’s the source of this print. My guess is they filmed it in super35 so all the extra shit from that site’s trailer wasn't on the print to begin with (hence my reasoning that it's cropped just fine)

Super 35

/edit yeah it is filmed in super 35

ill wait for the TUS or Nightfire kvcd of this

(User was banned for this post)


Posted by vission on 12-28-2005 09:58 PM:

Ok, I'm currently watching on my standalone (DVP642) - Sony Trinitron (27inch, newer model).

Video (8) - Yes, the video seems to be cropped a bit more than average but doesn't bother me AT ALL. I've seen this movie in theatres and if you've been waiting for a real watchable copy, this is it. I notice some small black square looking objects on black/dark areas but I get that with all my divx/xvid format movies that I play on my standalone and in this copy, they are alot less noticeable than say the recent maVen Harry Potter Xvid, which I noticed them alot more, but it was also a "TS" source or whatever so maybe that's the deal, I don't know, I'm not very release saavvy, etc. The colors are very vibrant for me, no adjustments needed on the television.

Audo (7) - Volume seems to spike at times, overwhelms the speakers a little but nothing major, doesn't distort. I do notice a slight hiss with my volume all the way UP but having it that high isn't nessacary at all. All dialogue, effects, etc are all easily heard with the volume at a reasonable level.

Movie (8/maybe 9) Yeah, I liked it alot, kept me entertained the whole three hours. Some say they got sleepy, beats me.

I've seen some 7's for video, I really don't understand unless you are that picky on cropping which in that case, it's free, you could go do it yourself, or pay to go see it?

Thaks ASTEROiDS, more than appreciative.

Very nice release.

9/9/?

This is definitely not a re-encode of any previously available release. Video and audio are much better than the stinker release (props to stinker for how fast they got their release out).

And I'd say it was cropped correctly. The trailer was released in a different aspect ratio than the finished film. 2.35:1 versus 1.85:1. Good job by Asteroids.


Posted by Jaded4Ten on 12-28-2005 11:02 PM:

This is a good release. The video is fairly colorful and doesn't seem to have motion blur (which it shouldn't), although blacks aren't very well defined.

prob 8/6/? ... the audio sounds shit, but at least you can understand it

the jpg of the "screener" has to be fake; they would not release a 1.85:1 open matte screener of a 2.35:1 movie. plus, Ken Rudolph hasn't received it yet

Posted by Mr E on 12-28-2005 11:11 PM:

Quality of this is superb, I don't know how anyone can have any complaints about this.

Video 9

Audio 9

Film 8

Just watched the full release and can't complain about any part of it!

Posted by gourmetcat on 12-29-2005 12:59 AM:

Great copy.

9/7/8 Video cropped or not cropped is clean. Audio a little muffled.


Posted by Truman on 12-29-2005 01:03 AM:

This rls rox compared to all before it so why the hell are ppl laming about this and that trying to get technical etc...?

The screenies of this so called dvd scr with black copyright of..... nope dont happen has anyone ever seen a screener where the text scroll is anything other than WHITE?

For me this IS the best rls to date if you have not yet seen this movie then grab this rls!

After all this is wot the thread is all about the quality of the rls by the group.

Rating from watching this rls and in the movies:

V:9
A:9
M:8


Posted by BLUE-NEO on 12-29-2005 04:02 AM:

REMOVE NUKE!

I call bullshit on the nuke! I've d/l the other copies they all mess up right as they get on the boat and then goes into fast-motion to catch up audio with the video. This one is perfectly synced so why the nuke?


Posted by jay1919 on 12-29-2005 08:09 AM:

why as this been nuked ? cropping?


Posted by Neomic2005 on 12-29-2005 09:20 AM:

Hopefully this mess with the DVDSCR gets cleared up soon, as I would like to get that one if it's actually real, but I grabbed this one for now...

V: 8 - had lots of artifacts and is slightly over-cropped. Very watchable though and is the best copy available at the moment.

A: 7 - Not bad, yet not good... Has some distortion in places from overfiltering.

M: n/a - Will watch full tomorrow...

Great job Asty!


Posted by gunitnucca on 12-29-2005 11:22 AM:

Damn alot of ppl moaning about this rls....i thought it was damn good....

heres my rating from the whole asteroid rls no sample rate bullshit.

Video - 9 if it is cropped still fuckin clear for me

Audio - 9 sounded good on my standalone

Movie - 9 was better than id expected thats what u get when a New Zealander Directs the film.

9/9/9

fuck the haters asteroid 2005 and beyond top tc rips.

m=?

Great TC, nice to see some quality popping back up now and then. Asteroids has really proven themselves in my mind atleast.

Very very watchable, slight cropping and yes, you can easily tell the audio is probably from a drive in fm source, but it's not as bad as it could be.

GET THIS RELEASE AND SHUT THE FUCK UP

Ok, and hopefully to end the dvdscr debate, first let me say, we should ALL BE BANNED for bitching.moaning.fighting over a release that ISN'T THIS ONE!

jesus christ man, read the rules, why don't we rate need for speed underground most wanted here?

Cause this thread is for King Kong *XviD* - TELECINE - ASTEROiDS !!!!

argggg.

Anyways, only a freaking idiot would believe that dvdscr is real, jsut look at the "sample" pics linked on this thread. They fucking stole a screen shot from tv or the website and used WINDOWS PAINT to put the FAKEST looking "Property of" tag in history.

Posted by Hairyhamster on 12-29-2005 06:47 PM:

right......... burnt to dvd and watched on standalone........

haxe read comments on here, and seems a few havent watched this imo.

video is nice... yes it is cropeed, but not so you would notice... black pixelation occurs on very dark scenes...... but generally nice.

audio has at least 3 sync issues... but only for a minute of so each time then comes together again, and yes there is a hiss some peole are talking about..... not so much of an audio hiss, but almost like its been filmed in a wind tunnel !

movie...... well im sure im going against the grain here, but i found this movie average if that... starts off like a wierd black comedy...... and just too drawn out...... special effects are a bit suspect to say the least...... keep and eye on the size of the girl when kong first has her.... one minute she is as big as his head, then smaller than his palm, so either this dood has hands bigger than his plastic head, or the consistency of the animation is way off....

so........

v-8.5 nice (little pixelation but nice)
a-8 ok but not the best (bit too much bass as well)
m-7 (have 15 mins left..... hope it gets better) very very disapointing.

That may be the case but i'd say it's more of a "tribute" to the original because it happened so often in that one. It seems like a Peter Jackson thing to do and I don't think h;ed get that sloppy.

From sample:

V-8 (cropped but i can't remember the framing of the theater)
A-7 (could be better, sounds distorted with music)
M-10 (best escapist movie since the original Star Wars movies IMO)

V=9. Picture perfect, the best TC i've seen. Only a little blur in the far away shots.

A=8. Little hiss, now and then, that's it. No sync issues for me.

M=7. The first 50 minutes feld like Titanic, in short. Special Effects were great.

prob 8/6/? ... the audio sounds shit, but at least you can understand it

the jpg of the "screener" has to be fake; they would not release a 1.85:1 open matte screener of a 2.35:1 movie. plus, Ken Rudolph hasn't received it yet

That guy has it listed now.

Nice picture, sound is clear though not so great on a dvd (did notice sync was out for about 30 secs on cd 2). First half of the movie was boring as hell. Second half was fantastic.

8/6/8


Posted by Do0m on 12-30-2005 01:47 AM:

v/8 a/7 m/7 i wasted three hours but some descent plot and action but i new what was coming


Posted by b_3 on 12-30-2005 02:28 AM:

Can I also point out the aspect ratio is perefct in this film, I know crop is such that you lose a tiny bit from top and bottom changing film AR to 2.35>2.66. However, by the Universal globe at the start it has a perfect aspect ratio. Finally, groups have started using calculators to work out crop/AR values rather than just guessing. Well done ASTERiODS.


Posted by GGODD2 on 12-31-2005 02:30 AM:

first off movie was great this release was great except th audio that was pure crap. fix the sound and this would be a great release oh and the dvd screener i seen that it is out for the award use only.




vid:8
audi:5
movie:10


Posted by archan1080 on 12-31-2005 06:19 AM:

very very good version


Posted by ovrprotected22 on 12-31-2005 08:42 PM:

Ok let's talk about the cropping issues discussed in this thread.
These are the aspect ratios:

This release: (2.67:1)
http://img359.imageshack.us/img359/4492/26719vb.jpg

The movie (2.35:1):

The supposed DVDSCR (1.80:1):
http://img359.imageshack.us/img359/21/18015nr.jpg

This release is cropped pretty bad, but not enough for it to be entirely noticable. The apparent DVDSCR (which I am in the process of downloading right now to see if it is infact real) has an aspect of 1.80:1 which seems odd. Why would the screener cover more screen than the actual movie. The only thing I can think of is either they cropped the sides so that it would be 16:9 on a WS TV or the actual film was soft matted. I have no clue.

V: 9
A: 7
M: Haven't watched yet.

Need anymore help?


Many times the trailer for a movie has a different AR than the final cut that goes to theaters/DVD. For example of this, compare The Matrix Reloaded DVD with the trailers for the movie.
