Technically, this is a well done rip. The only exception is that the layer break was not removed.
Otherwise, it's a lazy effort from alliance to rip the dvd to shreds. The menu is less than 10Mb leaving tons of space for the inclusion of the alternate ending and/or the deleted scenes. It's not as if the length of the movie prohibits the inclusion of extras. What would Replica or XPDVD have done?


- Alliance gets a 5 for being lazy.

- Movie gets a 6. It's okay but it will be completely forgotten in a year from now.

EDIT: Correction. It plays fine on the computer but when played on the standalone, it pauses slightly at every chapter point. This will likely be propered. There's an internal by XPDVD. Hope it reaches the masses.

Well the alternate ending would have been a cool feature.

Cool enough to buy the retail dvd ?

As for replica not only are they good but they have brain on
what to keep/leave out.

Could we get a Proper please ?

Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged

you guys are really nitpicking on this release... it really doesnt need a proper...Extra's are really not necessary..It was a little lazy of them to not include them cause it would not have affected the bitrate all that much..... I am having no problems playing this release on both my standalone, PC, and X360. So for those people calling for a proper from XPDVD or Replica, its really not warranted.

anyways.... 8/8/?

you can find the xpdvd torrent in TPB

XPDVD works fine, and when alliance's rip fucks up its on the part that you can switch from theatrical or alternate ending

Although I agree that this release needed a proper, I don't understand how all of you are saying that it was "lazy" of them not to include certain things....obviously you have no idea how to rip a dvd....it is much easier to keep things rather than rip them out (having to remove buttons, making sure the dvd structure stays ok, etc).

Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged

yup hoozdapimp thats when a job is well done to the end, this is rarer and rarer in the scene today. most teams dont give a shit about unused buttons or the dvd structure.

well i havent seen this or tested it but never was big on ALLiANCE dvdr rels, they have a certain stink to them (maybe its me...but apart from the THEATRiCAL iNTERNAL of The Butterfly Effect I see no ALLiANCE release that is worthy of any sort of praise).

16.Blocks.2006.NTSC.DVDR.iNTERNAL-XPDVD seems like the way to go, as usual XPDVD saving the scene and me not being able to find their internal work.

Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged

So, is this thing reencoded at all or Untouched main-movie-video-wise... because ALLiANCE certainly don't give many secrets away in their NFO.

Gonna watch it now to see how these glitches materiailise.
