Video - 8
I've seen better TCs, but this is still awesome. Video could be a bit sharper, but it's definately clear and somewhat crisp. Been wanting to see this, so I'm glad SOMEBODY got a 8 quality in my book.

Audio - 8
Not quite excellent, but sounds great enough on my speakers and the bass kicks in at the right moments and the right levels.
*Edit* - I've noticed there's some static throughout the movie. No sync issues for me, however.

Movie - 8
Ok, awesome movie. I give it an 8, but that's still at least 4 points better than most of the movies to come out this year. Definately one I'll be watching again.

*Authoring note* I don't know if anyone else was viewing this on a standalone. It was a bitch for me to re-encode, though. If anyone was having trouble with converting the last 8 or so minutes into an mpeg stream, the solution I used was splitting the remaining footage from the second half, then merging it with the resulting output of the first half and second half minus the remaining footage.

Sorry, I know this isn't an authoring discussion forum, but I know that many people like to review a release once it's been watched on an actual TV/entertainment system, rather than their computer, so I figured the info might help some people. If I'm out of order for that, please let me know.

V - 7 I'm having a hard time rating fairly since upgrading to 1088i HDTV. On my TV I'd rate the pic as a 5, but I am sure it is better than that. It certainly was better than many others that I have watched.

A - 5 [i]Just not very good. What can one expect, though? Slightly out of sync. Lacking in presence. A good job was done on quieting the slap-back effect, but it was still present in scenes where there was several levels of overlaying audio from the source.

M - 6 [i]I agree with the previous reviewer. A lot of hype surrounding this thing. It was good, but nothing special. I never watched the tv show, so maybe a lot of fans hold the movie more dear than I do.
