note: props to videocd for winning the "race" on this
film, but there were a few things wrong with
their version so we bring you this proper due
to the following:

- videocd's version was packed as .mpg, in the iso
scene (from games/apps/console/divx/etc.) a rels.
would be nuked for wrong compression, improper
image, etc. and the group would have to repack
it no matter what the excuse. you don't see flt
packing a bunch of files and telling you to use
isobuster to pack it, you don't see deviance
packing .iso files instead of .bin/.cue, well...
you get the point, there is no excuse for videocd
to disregard properly imaging their release for
the sake of winning a release. some end-users
have trouble editing .cue files, let alone asking
them to create their own image files. laziness is
NOT an excuse, so their release should be nuked.
- videocd's version was mono, they said in their
nfo that dvi's version had bad audio but their's
isn't much better either. we present you with a
non-hotel full stereo screener.
- videocd's version has hotel watermarks jumping
all over it, although ours has a few serials. we
took the time to blur them out for you.
with that said, we'll let siteops and nukers be
the judge. no groups should be an exception to
scene rules, and if groups fuck up they should be
able to fix their mistakes instead of leaving it
as is. the point of proper images is for the end-
user's convenience, and also a .mpg file is not
whitebook vcd compliancy until it is properly
imaged. as for video quality goes, you can
compare high motion precision versus rushed set-
tings for yourself. we encourage nukers to nuke
this release if they feel it is unwarranted, also
we encourage end-users to comment on our releases
even if they are negative, it helps us improve so
the vcd scene won't get any worse than it already
