You cannot get better when you divx the movie down and add a watermark... If I were you, I would download the real thing and play it on a standalone dvdplayer, connected to a good tv and see what happens.

Excellent release! I have only watched the first couple of minuites of the movie, so I cannot comment on the film itself, but the video is very nice (I don't see the "Leno" effect that much in this release) and the audio is pretty good also. At the begining of the movie there is a major buzz, but once you get past the Dreamworks logo and the movie starts, the audio from the movie greatly overpowers the buzz and it is HARDLY audible. I give it a 8.5/8/x


P.S. What is with the Chinese commercial that is packed in with it?

I Just watched some more of the release and I did notice the Leno effect much more, but it did not detract from the overall quality of the video (at least this is what I think), so I am keeping my score of the video the same.

wow! i can't believe i'm just getting around to watching this...aside from ctp's standard angle thing, the video is outstanding. you can also tell it's a ctp from the buzz in the audio, but easily fixable...and it may be the time of night or the tea i'm ingesting, but i laughed my ass off

9/7/8
