One of my favorite movies of the year, and ever. Was waiting for a nice release of it. This should do it. I have to admit that I've seen much better. In the sample for instance, when he's running down the corridor in the jail, there's a point at which you can barely see him because of pixalation.
saw this movie in the theatre on monday, and i liked it. not one of tom hanks' best movies and i dont really like leo dicrapio. the story is awesome though...but dont be fooled by the 9.0 rating for the movie here on vcdq, cuz it doesnt really deserve that high of a rating. go by the one on imdb.

Aww gee would ya????
ROFLMAO
Now... Stupidity to the side... Off I go to search again...
Um the last time i checked a dvd scr that is ripped is still a dvd rip. the same programs are used. ripped the same way. so a dvd screener is a dvd rip. No matter how you look at it. Do you mean the difference between a screener and a dvd retail? the only real difference between those 2 are the screeners aren't for general public.
you dumb fuck. a dvd screener has lower bit rate than the final retail dvd. The pic quality is markedly worse. Also dvd screeners USUALLY come with 2 channel sound.
:: its entirely down to the distributer what specs the DVDscr have, and a lot of the time they use a retail print for the screener -pHo
Well, i've managed to get the two cam versions yesterday, and watched it.
Now, this... it's the fifth time in less that six months that i have to dl a cam version, and imediately after there's a screener coming out.
Very good movie, so it will worth the dl. Good job, TCF.
But what amazes me is that so many people can get this kind of releases that i, and tons of others, have searched everywhere without success.
Nice release, the only problem is my Apex player has problems playing it since it's derived from a PAL screener. It works fine in the beginning of all 3 CDs, but after awhile the picture gets blocky and at some points it just freezes to a flickering green screen. At first I thought it was my media so I have tried several brands, then I tried burning it different ways. Anybody else experiencing these sort of difficulties?
AH son of a bitch. I was about to download this right now and i just happened to look. Pal svcd.. ... Why o why must I ask a Pal svcd. Damn pioneer 440 wont play them. Err tcf was on a role and then this...... Enter more raving ranting here... I wonder if we will see a ntsc of this... so much for my leeching. ... As for sample, looks pretty decent. Wish i could see the whole movie but im not about to sit and watch it on my computer and not be able to kick back and play it on my dvd... Ranting finished.

Looks great though.
I think that pixelation might have occured when they were cutting the sample since it isn't apparent when I watched it on my standalone (and it does sorta happen right when the sample ends). For those wondering about watermarks, I caught a few every 30 or so minutes and PAL SVCD doesn't bother me since my apex and pioneer plays it just fine. I wonder if the thought has ever crossed peoples mind that if the source is PAL they'd rip it as PAL instead of blaming the group. Maybe they have DVD Screeners in the european countries (99% of FLiX's releases are predvd PAL). Back to the main topic, nice flick... I enjoyed it
Hmmmm
I was really psyched about this release.
I just saw the sample (I havent seen the whole thing yet, just the sample), and it seemed like the audio was a little fast (I was reminded of an old telecine of 15 Minutes where the sound was noticeably fast and chipmunk-like), the quality otherwise on the sample was fantastic, but can somebody clarify this, that way I don't waste my time finding the whole thing.
This whole 'not working in apex players' thing is pretty troubling too. Yikes.
