well, fortunately, despite your opinions, the scene does in fact have standards, much to the benefit of the many people who cannot afford a 43" widescreen television.
because at 480x480 or 480x576 square pixels aren't used, usually when watching on a monitor svcd's look stretched unless they're viewed FS. this one looks stretched even in FS. the thing is 4:3 and not letterboxed. whether or not your dvd player/tv can "fix" that is immaterial. aside from that, the video bitrate is 2.52Mbps, which is 2,642,411 bps -- out of spec. that in itself is enough to earn it a nuke on many sites.
in any case, there's really no good reason for the scene not to enforce certain standards. after all, it's not like there aren't a million groups ready to jump in and release something, if they don't; these days, there are plenty of groups, and no real reason to take a dvdrip that isn't done right. it's certainly better than accepting it, and just keeping it until the next version comes out, and then discarding it & grabbing the new one. that just fosters & encourages the whole 38-releases-of-everything problem.
and finally, this rip would have been nuked most places even if there weren't a problem with the AR or bitrate, since it's less than a week and a half to retail release of this film.
