Looks like you have been around awhile. Most people lately are new and are only used to Silvers so vote on Silvers. The only reason i question your high rating is cause i have been around awhile now since ONS, TEG, VERiTY, TCR, Centropy, UTi, InR, LoGiStiC, VideoCD, NEWFXP , ... etc the list goes on & on.
Over the years i have seen all the various TELESYNC's. All the TS's nowadays even Centropy's dont deserve 9's , mabey the sound but definatly not the picture. I rate my releases (vote) on vcdquality compairing it to how i have seen past telesync's over the past years.
"The Scene" , mainly the CAM/TELESYNC part is overcome by Silvers last few months since the actual DV Cam grps are selective on releasing.
Its quite obvious ... i dont watch/like silvers , they glitch , their dark , they flicker, colors bleeding, their blurry and most the time either barley watchable or unwatchable.
Yes i understand TELESYNC's arent "DVD" Source and i dont expect that. If you been around for awhile , which im sure you havent people's standards on TELESYNC's sure have dropped.
Try and get ahold of TELESYNC's from 2 years ago, and then compair them to "Cursed" which you just voted 8 for on a picture and then you will understand my comment. All these silver movies at best deserve a 6 for picture , compaired how telesync's can be.
I miss enjoyable TELESYNC's and unless an actual DV Cam grp releases now , i just view rars to remind me why i dont watch silver and wait for a possible TELECiNE or Screener.
This post btw mod'z isnt a bash but to wake people up , their voting 8's , 9's on horrible Silver movies, when if they seen a real TELESYNC they would understand what this.
Everyone yes is entitled to an opinion. If i was new to movies and only watched whats been released latley sure i might vote and 8 also.... but as i said , when you have seen how nice TELESYNC's can be compaired to the recent flood of silvers ....
/end
Nice post and i've been around for awhile. This is definitely a cropped, dark and pixely silver to me. And does NOT deserve an 8 for Picture by any means. ONLY, a true homemade SVCD TS from the likes of the greats of OLD:
When the SCENE L33T pres of VideoCD, UTi, TCF and Centropy did there Tuesday after theatre release damn fine copies. Matrix 2 comes to mind and Spiderman both excellent damn SVCD TS of yester year. Groups like Centropy and VideoCD were NEVER about winning the race. The always stressed Quality over Quantity, and U knew b4 u even checked the sample that 9x outta ten. You were getting the best that the SCENE had to Offer.
Of course there was the issue of the boom mic dropping in from above, but man i miss the good ol days.
All the new groups get NYC silvers and even Subbed cams from overseas, shudder the thought. The scene is slipping but who can blame em when most ppl wouldnt know a good pre if it bit em in the ass. Its all about first to the scene and sloppy thrown together garbage mostly. I still give PROPS to anyone that tries dont get me wrong. I just miss the Excellence of a couple years ago. MEGA PROPS go out to TUN as well, there Telecines just keep getting better and better and i remember when ppl were always hating on em. Well all i have to say is Quality and Respect persevere.
Anyway, as for this film:
The opening frame with the credits shows just how angled to the right this release is.
The sound is nice of course because any damn group can get a DTS theatre source disk these days, but i'm still gonna hold out and wait for a better release.
However, if U must see this now. The movie is watchable. Which is more than i can say for some of the other films preing these days. IT makes u really appreciate what we had when VideoCD, UTi, TCF and Centropy kept giving it their BEST every time out.
From the Sample:
6 (Pic is dark and grainy and angled to the right just watch the opening sequence.
8 DTS Audio of Course
? Awaiting a better PRE i hope.
LONG LIVE THE SCENE!!! RESPECT YOUR ELDERS. ENJOY
