Havent seen but want to respond ( please note off topic before you read). Video cd seems to have hits and misses. Its part of life i guess. I think they just need to work on their encoding skills some. It looks from the amount of releases they put out they have mad connects. However they just dont know what to do with them once they receive the release. 20 to 1 if they learned encoding they might be one of the powerhouses of the scene. No im not a fan of any group in particular, though i do like tcf a lot, but it is the truth. Tcf should send em some help in encoding skills as an xmas present :P . WHo knows, we then might be seeing shit done right. As for ring, ive been waiting a while to. Don't know til a screener comes out if anything will or not.. if a screener at all. Its rather old in scene terms and yet NOTHING!

Correct me if i'm wrong though.

TELECINE (TC) -
A telecine machine copies the film digitally from the reels. Sound and picture should be very good, but due to the equipment involved and cost telecines are fairly uncommon. Generally the film will be in correct aspect ratio, although 4:3 telecines have existed. A great example is the JURASSIC PARK 3 TC done last year. TC should not be confused with TimeCode , which is a visible counter on screen throughout the film.

SCREENER (SCR) -
A pre VHS tape, sent to rental stores, and various other places for promotional use. A screener is supplied on a VHS tape, and is usually in a 4:3 (full screen) a/r, although letterboxed screeners are sometimes found. The main draw back is a "ticker" (a message that scrolls past at the bottom of the screen, with the copyright and anti-copy telephone number).

My dl of this was a little dark also..... but still decent and it keeps my movie watching friends happy... Is that not the point?

I watched the whole movie this afternoon. I thought it was quite funny. Average, but funny.

Nice enough quality i guess, if a little dark. Sound is a bit scratchy in places too. Still, it'll do nicely. Thanks.
