Another day, another movie... I'm happy with the steady stream of films coming out. Here is a nice change of pace from the typical untouched video we've been getting lately.
Video is pretty sensitive topic here since the movie is a comedy. Just like I am against keeping DTS on a drama flick, some people might not care as much how the video looks in a comedy (or even drama actually).
The video is 1.85:1 at 3300kbit/sec. This is pretty much the exact same as Welcome to Mooseport. 1.85:1 at 3300 is the same as 2600kbit/sec at 2.35:1, which we all know doesn't cut it. Was it worth the extras? Being a movie only kind of guy, I personally don't think it was worth the extras to sacrifice video that much.
Video 7/10 - I didn't vomit in disgust when I watched it. I DID notice the video wasn't too hot, but on this kind of movie, it didn't take away any enjoyment.
DVD-R 7/10 - Well, I didn't watch the extras yet, and may never actually do so (just like I never got around to the extras on Bruce Almighty). Nice job on the authoring too! So, it was decent all around. Video COULD have been better, especially since I bet the original movie VOBs were 3.5-4.0 gigs probably because that's ALOT of extras on that disc.
Movie was okay IMO. It's I think by the creators of Road Trip. Same kind of humor, except more risque this time. Maybe you could almost say Road Trip meets American Pie.
Overall I think it's a decent release. I probably won't watch this movie more than once. aNBc successfully made my first and only time viewing this movie quite enjoyable!
