wow mavensupplier managed to find something better than a phonecam this time. It's actually a nice first release. Colors are nice, minimal flicker, audio is decent and in sync for a CAM pretty good

6/6/?

the movie was filmed live first and then was animated straight over the top which is why the actors look like the people they are.

wonder if they can get an oscar for this sorta thing?

Wow, this rls seems to be one of your better first run cams. Perhaps they were doing their own phone cams at first, and saved up enough to buy a real cam...

Anywayz, the video is suprisingly fluid No choppyness, and not too bad on the pixelation. It seems to be shot at an angle from the way the opening credits look, but given the style of animation it is, it almosts blends in. 6.5

The audio seems good from scanning the rars. Not too hollow, not too bass heavy either. At the beginning there's some crackling, but nothing too bad. 5

Haven't finished all the way through it yet, but this release is definately watchable.

Am I the only person that thinks this style of animation is absolutely amazing? I registered just so I could post to this thread. This isnt based on a comic book, its adapted from a novel. Richard Linklater used a less refined version of this technique in his movie Waking Life. Though this style has been around for decades, its now aided with the help of computers. I have been looking forward to this movie for about 5 years, since I first heard it was being made. Originally it was rumored to be a fully CG movie, and wouldve been one of the first. In the end, Im happy it turned out the way it did, and I encourage all to go see it.

you're kidding right? an 8 for audio? instead of just going off a sample, trying watching the rest of the movie. the audio is horribly distorted at high volumes, and you can constantly hear the audience.

The video is a bit dull, but overall still good quality for a cam. The sound is what you can expect from cams, but it is clear enough to hear and that is what you want with a cam. On another note, I just saw some of Mavenssullier's version of Little Man, it's a good improvement and props for the effort of hitting a triple-feature today guys.

Needs a repack. First minute of the second disc is the first minute of the movie, and 27:57 secs into the second disc it switches back to the first disc.

Actually pretty decent. Sound wise there's a bit of audience noise, a bit of distortion at higher volumes and bass heavy bits but overall very watchable.

Video is very good for an early release, washed out, cropped but not really heavily so.

Not quite up to good 'ole UTI standards but a good cam never-the-less.

Blatantly Mavenssupplier are largely taking the piss with some of their releases and nfos but if they keep putting out releases like this then I'll be happy.
