It's a long time ago that i have seen such a nice TS. Really awsome job. Audio is offcourse great (that aint often the prob). And the video is awsome for a TS. It's very colorfull. And it's really sharp. This reminds me off the ts' i saw 2 years ago. Reallyyy nice job

8/8/9

Posted by Miller on 11-12-2004 05:23 PM:

only watched the first5 rars from CD1. Video is a bit dark, but that may be due to the night scene, looks to have nice color. Sound is great, nice and clear a little low but turning up the volume fixes that. movie looks ok!!!

7/8/?

very very very nice. i love it when videocd rls stuff of this quality. just wish they got the incredibles out instead of ctp's shite

video is very clear, little dark, but nothing bad at all, still very nice colours. very little cropping or grainyness so basically a top class ts

audio is perfect as expected

movie still looks shite

Who cares how late or early vcdq posts their flicks.. sounds like you are trying to be cool because you were able to grab as soon as it was released.. Any how a great release with superb video and audio.

Posted by bratt31999 on 11-12-2004 10:49 PM:

Another excellent release by VideoCD. Colors are vivid and audio is very clear. I'd give this an A\10 V\9 ( a little fuzzy ) M\9.

If you haven’t dl this yet I would suggest dl this one.

Posted by Skynet on 11-13-2004 12:08 AM:

This release is good, but it does not deserve a 9.7. Very nice but I give the video an 8.5.

Posted by underdog on 11-13-2004 12:10 AM:

Quite a nice TS here, probably the best one I've seen since Garfield.
Vid - 9 Great quality and colors, minimal cropping
Sound - 9.5 Very crisp clear audio throughout
Movie - 8.5 My kids loved it, thx videocd

Posted by UltrA1 on 11-13-2004 01:35 AM:

The NFO is rite http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338348 from nfo is for Polar Express...@imdb

Audio 8.5 - Video 8.9 - Movie 8.6
Sound has a low hiss .... but not to bad..
Great Friday night Kid entertainment!!

Keep it up VideoCd

Very good SVCD TS..Mega PROPS to VideoCD..Superb pic a tad tark at times..Even better quality than the Incredibles. Decent kids film, although need to see in theatres for the full experience

8/9/8

Posted by Da Postman on 11-13-2004 05:51 AM:

A good release, I've noticed the video is cropped more on the left as the picture makes me want to lean right. The sound is great and the clarity is something to be expected and appreciated for. All TS's are a bit, dark, so I don't see anyone can complain. I want to give this a higher rating, but the left side crop is just to obvious.

Posted by uRMoM.=P on 11-13-2004 06:26 AM:

mediocre

Mediocre TS as usual from videocd, looks like all the vcd members have flooded the comments
Really now, lets look at the release, its too dark (and I realize the movie takes place mostly at night, but still darker than it should be) its blurry as hell! and colors are a bit dull. Only good think on this release is the audio! (thnx to their dts supplier )
Its true videocd HAS released some very nice TS in the past.... but this one?.... DEFINATELY not even close, their quality has degraded by each release.
By all means.. do not sacrifice quality for speed!

You're a tool.

Just because they have had previous better releases, doesnt mean ever time they release something its going to be just as good as the others if not better.

I've noticed the problem with the scene these days is that its not the gtoups getting worse its the overly spoiled people who think these groups owe it to the people who download the movies.

Bottom line, if you dont like the quality, dont download it. Quit bitching and actually spend some of your money and pay to see it, christ.

Posted by PlasmaWhore on 11-13-2004 08:02 AM:

Picture is amazing for being such a dark movie. Sound is perfect as always from VideoCD. Movie was kinda lame.

Posted by frak on 11-13-2004 08:54 AM:

watched this on the big screen.

great release from videocd. Video is very good and the audio
as always is perfect.

movie wasn't bad either, interesting approach to film making.

video: 8.5
audio: 8.5
movie: 8

Posted by Oglethorpe on 11-13-2004 10:45 AM:

Tinge dark, tinge blur, still completely watchable and enjoyable from sample.
8/8/?
I heard you should see it in IMAX for best effect.

Video is pretty good a bit dark and a slight flicker but not to bad.

Audio is great sounds nice thourgh 5.1

Movie not seen it all but i like the style its in .

Posted by Redemption1980 on 11-13-2004 01:51 PM:

Does anyone else here find that stuff is only too dark on the PC.

Everything dark has been OK when i watch it on the TV, apart from Saw, but i saw that at the Cinema and it the same.

I tried this on the TV and it looked amazing for a TS, I wish The Incredibles was this good.

9/9/?

Posted by garvey100 on 11-13-2004 02:05 PM:

I know excatly what you mean Redemption. Not only does the darkness sort itself out on normal tv but also the flicker is virtually nil compared with pc monitor.....must be to do with resolution I think

Posted by resetman on 11-13-2004 04:03 PM:

great quality flick 8/8/9

also the people saying that it is dark on their computer.....it also may be the way your computer is processing the mpg2 file....if i am wrong please correct me but isn't mpg2 the standard for standalone dvd players and not computers and .avi is the standard for computers so it would figure if you wanted to watch the video on your computer you should get it in avi format not mpg....if i am wrong please let me....

Posted by AcclaimedCritic on 11-13-2004 07:47 PM:

fucking hell, judging by half the posts here it looks like the board is over-run by videocd members
lets get back to reality for a moment however...
one of the best telesyncs of the past 2 years? no , not even close
great audio ? the audio is nice, but its damned quiet

terrible for motion blur throughout . also, the first 2 pages of posts fail to mention that the last few minutes of will totally screw up your's and your childrens heads unless you are of course able to read french

overall good release, but nowhere near fucking excellent

6.5/6/10

just watched entire release, must say the sound was a bit quiet, but thats what the volume control is for. Video is excellent, of course its dark, the entire movie takes place between approx 10pm and 12.00 midnight.
the movie, whilst my 8yo daughter loved it, made me want to scrub my eyeballs with something nasty. The animation is soulless, the cheese is thicker than the cheesiest cheesy thing you have ever seen, give me "its a wonderful life" or "Miracle on 34th St" anytime!!

a8/v9/m4

Posted by vip3r on 11-13-2004 10:42 PM:

Nice ass releasing. The Finding Nemo telsync is still the BEST TS ever released imo though. This release does get a little dark at some points .. and at some points, it's nice, bright, & clear and almost looks like a damn good screener. Audio was fuckin great on the home theater, movie was extremely good imo. *** 1/2 from me.

8.2/9/9

Posted by supastud on 11-14-2004 12:51 AM:

the polar express

I think people need to sit back and think about where all these movies come from! People go sit in cinemas, set up cams, set up stupid fiddly audio devices to try and get a TS!
For what? Money? nah! they do it cos they love movies! some are shit some are better some are WOW! but we all get them for fuck all!
IMO props to the groups for having the bollocks to go sit in cinemas with a cam on a fucking tripod, to get the movie to you ASAP!
END OF!
enjoy whats on offer, because every now and then it dries up! and what would we do then!
love um or loath um!My kids loved it, don't come out here for another 2 weeks, kept them quiet for 90 mins yesterday and again today!
sweet!
when the retail dvdr comes out i'll be sorted, till then this will do!
thanks!
Study!

i am not saying that you can't play it on a computer...i obviously know you can play anything on a computer with the proper codecs.....what i am saying is that an mpg2 will look different on a stand alone dvd player then it would on a computer.....as a video card would process the data differently on a computer then a dvd player

Posted by buttmonkey on 11-14-2004 04:26 AM:

This is one of the best telesyncs I believe I have ever seen. The picture is almost crystal clear and the sound is right on for a svcd.

Video: 9
Audio:9
Movie 7 (was a little disappointed with this story but it is about Christmas )

ACCLAIMEDCREDIC,

Don't complain.....it is free you jackass!!!!!

Posted by al-d on 11-14-2004 08:36 AM:

video is a bit dark at the corners, had to brighten it up a little, looks better on a TV
sound is ok

After watching the whole release, I have to say the sound is not so great. It has compression issues and noise. It is not horrible but a bit distracting in the softer parts.

The sound should rate around a 7.5 not what it is now, almost a 10. Actually watch the movie before rating the audio next time mkay?

Posted by XAVeRY on 11-14-2004 05:48 PM:

VideoCD seems like a french group for me, or their source is french look at their previous releases - for example "The Terminal" and "Shark Tale" video was french

8/7/2

Crap..complete and utter crap...

So boring...fell asleep then woke up...then almost fell asleep again. 95% of movie takes place on a train and wait..theres more--the train drives on ice- then sometimes the kids climb on top of train--and wait--want more excitement? the train stops at the north pole to meet santa and the elves! wow! what an exciting movie...

this movie is HORRIBLE compared to The Incredibles, Shark Tales, and Shrek. this is the WORST CGI flick ive ever saw.

Posted by slats34 on 11-18-2004 03:49 PM:

nice quality, video is colorful and the sound is near perfect. 8.5/9/8

Video = 8
Sound = 9
Movie = 7

i was impressed with the video and audio alot.. the audio was perfect!! coming though the surround sound it was nice.. and the video i managed to get it full screen on my widescreen tv, no black lines or anything.. but like all copys like this it was a little dark now and then but you wouldnt notice too much..

overall.. excellent copy!!

Posted by HcC on 11-21-2004 02:03 AM:

good job boys, 9/8/5

video was good but cuz of dark scenes it was kinda hard to see at times but considering almost the whole movie was night time good job. you get a sticker !

audio was good, had to crank it up a bit but whatever

movie was a kids movie but I read the book when i was a kid so whatever it gets 5 points for memories, otherwise... I think the bum should have been santa.
