Not their best, not their worst. I'd put this one against their Pink Panther and Big Momma's House 2. They stated in the .nfo that it's dark tho.
Audio - 7
Sounds fine to me.
Movie - 3
I wanted to give it a 4, but that's *too* kind. Ok, so I'm to understand from the beginning that Superman left earth for 5 years. He comes back to find Lois moved on with her life, and has a family now, which includes a boy who is in school. This would make him 5. If he's 5, and Clark's been gone for 5 years, then that means he was concieved 9 months *before* he left. Also makes you wonder about how she was supposed to meet the father first. Aside from that, Lex Luthor seemed "not so Lex". Spacey was a good cast for him, but he was written badly. There's more I could go into, but I don't feel like attempting to recall what memories of this film I have already successfully repressed. I'm glad I didn't go to the theatres to see this piece of shit. NOTHING like the first two Superman movies...or even the last 2...
Yes, real groups who release their own work should do shitty encode jobs, so everyone will lose respect for them and then hopefully they can be as excited as you seem to be about putting out a sub-par release. The scene may be the scene, honor among theives, blah blah blah, but the fact of the matter is that the people downloading everything the "scene" releases is comprised mostly of these "whiners" you allude to. It's not a matter of "well, it's free", because it's not. The end user has to download it, which takes time, and costs money for their ISP. The IRC bots and torrent seeders and everything couldn't exist without time and money. And certainly you don't believe that the "boothleggers" are risking their freedom to do this "for fun"? Groups that grab silvers and re-encode them do this for fun. The actual cammers have ulterior motives. So maybe the people who bitch about the bitching need to quit bitching, and let the end users continue to do what we're ALL supposed to be here for; rating the overall quality of a release.
Nicely said, I couldnt agree more. Now on to my rating:
audio- 7, not great but a lot better than all the other releases that are out right now.
video- 8, pretty damn good considering the source and how many other shitty releases came out.
movie- 7, I saw it in the theatre the day it came out and I liked it. It isnt as good as Batman Begins or Spiderman, but still a pretty good superhero movie, especially is your a DC Comics/Superman fan.
