Oh man... BHP strikes back with another release with poor quality video (this does NOT imply that ALL their releases have poor video quality... But it is not the first either).

3050kbit/sec on a 129 min movie at 1.85:1... I know you don't need huge bit rate on this political drama, but this is IMO worse than their Wicker Park video quality. Video hits like 1200kbit/sec in some scenes. WTF...

And they kept the "making of"... Oh man... Why... It's not like the special effects needed a making of. Oh, and DC... Geez...

Oh well... Not going to gripe anymore. It is free afterall. I'll just do it myself in January when it hits stores.

:: EDIT :: Just in case warning. I am a huge advocate for movie only rips (as many of you know), and a great stickler for video quality. I do of course admire all the groups for their early releases, and the large amount of time they spend just to give back to the scene (despite how big of a critical prick I may sound like )

I was also greatly disappointed that I couldn't find any dual-layer DVD-Rs on sale this boxing day!!! But I did stock up on 4.7 giggers I guess the time is not quite here yet for dual-layer rips.
