Same as SCREAM's rip really, just with a nice Retail menu instead.
According to nfos though, Scream's has considerably higher bitrate of 6024, compared to Burger's 4500, but both look equally as good on a 28" tv.

9/9/7

Scream was full of it in their NFO. It would have been impossible for the 115 minute movie to have video alone of 6000kbit/sec.

[6024kbit/sec * (115mins * 60sec/mins)] * 1/8 bytes/bits = 5,195,700kbytes.

Obviously that can't fit on a DVD, especially since that is the video alone. Another 300 megs for the audio and you're hitting most likely the original bitrate of the retail DVD.

This release is pretty good with 3,881,250kbytes for video + around the 300 megs audio. And slap on a monster menu and you've as good as you'll get.

7.5 / 10 video - Good job. Definitely price is right. Probably will pick this one up at Blockbuster when (and it will since they'll buy 100000 of them) be $6.99

::EDIT:: I agree with vip3r, video is better than 7.5/10. 8 at least upon viewing it again. Been a while since I reviewed anything

9.5/10 DVD-R - As good as you'll get. I personally had no problems playing this on any of my "brand" name players. Nice job.

7/10 Movie - I was expecting more

But definitely better than alot of people told me it was. Reminded me of Enemy of the State with Robots

(I know, I am way off).

I'd rate the video a bit higher from what i've seen so far..anyways, this is a retail release, don't know what region it is .. but the menus look R1 to me, quality is perfect (almost!). I enjoyed this movie .. was different for a change.

Ah shit. I think you might be right... I looked around and didn't see anything about the R1 having Korean or Thai on it. Plus, as you mentioned, half the menu is in Korean (if you view the second half of the VTS_01_0.VOB with PowerDVD you'll see). Some info I found about the R1

Whether it is correct info or not. I am sticking with this one. I am personally not downloading another god damn I, Robot release... Nice encode/video, good sound and nice looking menu. Can't complain.

I believe its a region 3 release. Nukers went back and forth on this particular release over a menu fix, possible dupe of SCREAM, or a Screams was a rental. Basically a dupe of SCREAM rls with a full menu..Definitely a RETAIL but according to the scene rules officially SCREAM was a rental rip mislabeled and thus nuked. I hope this clarifies it.. It was quite a ride. I'm gonna wait another week just to see if a R1 RETAIL drops. Otherwise this is the one to get props to BURGER on a fine release

video on the scream release was better - upconvert to 720p on an HD and you can really tell the difference.

this would have been kickass if not for scream's release, but I guess that was nuked almost everywhere anyway so this might be your only option

7/10/7.5

Started to watch this on my TV last night ... not seen a R1 on the setup i run right now.

I did notice as the camera was panning down the buildings very early on, it seemed jerky, but i feel that could be the equipment - not the release.

(was watching on a multi region player _modded R2 player - and 32" sanyo TV)

Gonna watch this on my R1 player at the weekend

i got to say though - quality did look great.
