This screener is ok..with alot of flaws....I don't know why its getting such high ratings. Ok lets talk about the good points. The sound is great! Ok thats out the way.
The video is somewhat horrid. The AR is just bad plain and simple. Also its super bright even the opening credits are blurred out with brightness at some points. Next the call 1800 message is really bad. Worse enough we get a Univeral symbol 80% of the film and it even goes black and white through some scenes. Sucks....

overall its a 6...decent video ..with alot of flaws.
overall its a 9...when it comes to sound. Great!
overall movie..is a 8..I like Mike Myers and his acting career is wonderful and this is a great addition to history books..
Funny movie and a few little adult jokes in there..

This movie deserves a proper..without the universal or scrolling text.

okay now, a proper without the scrolling text. lemme guess, they crop it out and you'll say "this shit sucks, too cropped!" or they blur it out and you say "big blurs are a pain in the ass!". Bad AR and overbrightness are one thing but dont complain about the b&w and watermarks when those are on the source. Not like TCF just slaps em on there to be funny

M112_04: what on earth are you talking about? There are black and white scenes in this screener, not to mention a "Property of Universal" line across the top through the whole thing. This was not from a DVD source. It was a VHSrip. The release wasn't shitty due to the things mentioned above. That was on the source.
Things like, the AR is screwed, and it's pixelated make it a bad release. What Nautical said did make some sense considering that newbs do complain when the watermark is cropped too low and when things are blurred. So, I suggest not trying to start a flame war with insults like calling someone "jr." before you know what you're talking about 'cause it really just makes you look,...new.
Just to add, I watched it and it does look pixelated a bit. Really, I think it shoulda' been ripped at a bit higher bitrate on the video side of things. As for the AR wasn't sqiushed at all on my standalone player, so I have no complaints about that.
6/8/5 (hey, my kid liked it)

This is a decent screener..the AR is really terrible but I've seen worse. Good movie though Mike Myers is a great actor.

Mr. Baldwin was just annoying. LOL

6/8/8

My kids absolutely loved this flick. Excellent job TCF. The dvdr of this flick will be a keeper.

One for the kids, or at least people with a strange affliction to illegal substances.
Not a bad release though colours are a little washed out but its certainly very watchable. Mike Myers really reminded me of Jim Carey in this, seemed to be pulling alot of the same gags and repeating his stuff from his other movies.

Skrib.....
