Judging from sample it looks watchable, but it looks dark and the colors are bland also blurry to some extent. Sound doesnt sound that bad, its tolerable.

Based on TS:

Video:6
Audio:7
Movie: Hope its good

Edit:

After watching most of cd1 I would say if you want to watch this movie dont get this copy. Its cropped on the sides and you cant
hardly see anything when theres a black background, but the audio is good.

Unless someone can find a proper reason, it probably won't happen. The xvid TS is out that only leave a SVCD TS, and SVCD is typically lower in quality.
There might be an internal if you are lucky.
You could wait for the dvdrip, but thats likely to take a year

Anyway, the sample of this looks ok, I've seen worse, although I've seen better too.

video 5
audio 6
movie 9

video is blurry at times and pretty dark throughout most of the movie. there are a lot of scenes that are hard to make out because they are too dark. audio was decent most of the movies. got worse at some points.

the movie itself was pretty good. others better i think(right now). gonna have to watch again with better quality.

well first the good news..its the best version out at the moment..better then the cam versions but not by leaps and bounds..pictures cropped to the left..colors are washed out..and its very dark..hard to see the dark scenes which there are alot of...the sound is the best thing about this release..im gonna wait and hopefully a better TS will arrive V-6..A-8..M-?

what planet you on? dvd rips usually take anywhere from 2-3 months from theatre release. i would expect this in 3 months, but hope a nice tc comes along =)

6/6

Based on what I've seen I think a proper for excessive crop might fly. You might also be able to make a case for bad deinterlacing. More on that in a sec...

Video - 3: Washed out. Excessive left crop, and probably some unneeded bottom and top crop as well. Dark stuff comes through looking really, really bad, almost impossible to distinguish the substance from the blackness at times. (Title sequence and opening bit with the... umm... wraith things, whatever, are good examples) Now, as for the deinterlacing thing I mentioned above, this release suffers from worse-than-usual motion blur. Why? Because every frame has a double image. If you advance the video frame-by-frame in a scene with any motion whatsoever you will see double and even triple images in the video. That cannot be from the camera; that is a post-processing issue. What it looks like to me is that the source video was interlaced with a simple weave pattern, but instead of reversing the weave ViSUAL decided to blend the frames for whatever reason. Blend deinterlace gives you blur and double images, and couple that with the existing motion blur present on pretty much every cam or TS out there you get... well you get the unwatchable crap we have here. I have seen MORE unwatchable, but not by much.


Audio - 6: It does the job okay. A little distorted on the high pitched stuff, but what's worse is the background hum present. It's slight, but enough that you can pick it out in the silent scenes. (Especially if you watch with headphones) All the speech is understandable though, and the music comes through... mostly. Mono sound as well, though most TS and even R5 Line audio seems to be mono anymore.


Movie - ?: I had to stop watching because I couldn't tell what was going on half the time. I didn't even make it through the first disc. Seemed entertaining though, what little of it I saw.



Bottom line: Wait for an R5, an internal release, or a Proper from some group that actually knows how to post-process a video source. Watching this release is like trying to see the movie screen through a fishtank half-full of muddy water while drunk.

CRAP!! DUPE FRAMES!!

I would say this is poor and to hold off for a nice russian or a 20th release. this is pure garbage through and through, major focus issues for one.

6 - pretty shit, bassless...


7- movie was good


AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Nuked (sides.cropped.HARD.try.again)


Posted by Mailman on 07-18-2007 12:09 PM:

I could've dealt with this, but is so badly cropped to the left. Sound is good, they would've been better to steal the French or German video and sync up their audio. I want to watch this, but I'm going to wait. The over left crop did it for me.

yep slight better than canal release but still to dark
V-5.5

bleh i'll wait for a better release


Posted by resetman on 07-18-2007 01:14 PM:

video 6 (yes it is over cropped)
audio 8
movie ?
those of you that think a dvd rip of this will come in 3 month's think again......with this being released so late in the summer you probably won't see a dvd rip of this til christmas just in time for the holiday buying rush.......hopefully an r5 will come out before then


Posted by Ekno on 07-18-2007 01:22 PM:

This one has been nuked
Reason: overcropped_bad.angle


Posted by jicjak on 07-18-2007 01:57 PM:

Unfortunately d/l the whole thing instead of sample and rars to test quality. All comments pretty much accurate from what I did watch. Movie like this needs better quality to enjoy.

6/6.5/?


Posted by slapper on 07-18-2007 02:02 PM:

This flick is too hard to get a decent pic of.
I've seen it in cinema (movie sucked btw) and there's no camera which will do this justice.
The dark episodes are simply too dark to get a balanced output.
My suggestion is that if you want this, wait for TC/R5 rls.

This one is under par. Sound is kind of decent, not the best.
True about the angle, it's annoying. Also a bit too much cropped.
As stated: movie sucked.

Best of luck for a grp to get a watchable TS out though. Don't get caught!
If 20th would try this one, they must set the exposure to the max while their footage normally tend to be a bit on the dark side.

I saw a pre scr of it, apart from the metal detection, Warner Bros hired some monkeys with night googlers for that occasion.
It spoiled the whole lot for me. Not only being faced with a fully stacked cinema with kids eating popcorn out loud (pff..)
these monkeys were walking through cinema hall the whole time. It was like they were scanning for terrorists.
They simply don't want to get this in the open. Not sure about security measures at this time. In due time they will get losen up, I guess.


Posted by crudman on 07-18-2007 03:00 PM:

From the 1st cd, it does seem to have a lot of dark scenes, and the dark cam just doesn't cut it (the double images dont help either)

Yeah, for crappy movies. Because they usually make MORE on dvd sales than the theatre release.

For big hits, they often take 6-8 months or longer. I'm not talking R5 crap.

As for the movie sucking, IMDB voters disagree with you, but personally I think harry potter movies suck in general. However I'm bored enough to watch

At premiers or earlier screenings of big movies they've been doing that kinda stuff for a while now. Its not going to change. It might even get worse. There are detection technologies in the works that can detect cameras, and possibly jam them.
In normal releases, its rare for them to do things like that, although they may in some areas. Those little dots that flash on the screen, if a CAM records that (and I doubt many bother to remove them) tells them whereabouts they need to focus security.
Also, they've broken up a few cammers recently, so many are more cautious.
Speaking of being treated like terrorists, the USA theatre ppl now have the right to detain and interrogate anyone they like, and cannot be sued or prosecuted for doing so.
The 3 year jail time in USA doesn't make people anxious to go out and CAM either.

Video [6]

Blurry, pinkish hue and dark to the point where you cant see very much. Also over cropped.

Audio [7]

Sounds fine to me...

Movie [N/A]


Hopefully the Russians will supply a nice TS source. Waiting on a watchable proper hopefully from PUKKA or 20th...

BTW: if anyone wants I can check when the R5 hits Russia. [I can read Russian ]
