Poll: AvP vs AvPR

[TJ Doc]

Excellent.

We begin at dawn!

[Requiem28]

for the people complaing that AVP-R is too dark, i'm pretty sure there is a screen adjuster on your remote
that lets you enhance the image and make it brighter.

[Undeadite]

That doesn't add enough contrast without screwing up the color. Then again, why bother making it brighter in the first place? At least the darkness covers some of the horrible alien designs.

Did it, doesn't work.

Wait, your dawn or mine?

[Keg]

Same here. Tried that. Do you think we're that dumb. Theres only so much you can do with brightness and contrast when the original source is so dark to begin with. its like when you watch a pirate movie and no matter what you do with the settings everything is still a little bit too dark. Except this aint a damn pirate. Its a genuine DVD that I paid for. Its watchable sure, but it the darkness detracts alot from some of the setpieces. Hell even the directors themselves awknowledged it and theyre somewhat embarrassed about it and have apologized for it. If the directors have admitted it was a mistake and they think its too dark i dont know why people are still defending it. Its the worst contrast/darkness levels ive seen on any dvd ever.

It worked for me, about 2 or 3 scenes are a little too dark but I guess its better than nothing...

[SpaceMarines]

And those 2 or 3 scenes are supposed to be the climax of this godforsaken film

[First Blood]

It shouldn't be our responsibility to adjust the brightness on the TV to see this poo-poo film better. It's the DP's job. Or the set designers, or the editor.

The colour grader under the direction of the directors.

That usually ruins the picture.

[SM]

Quite.  'Cos then you can actually see them things that they claim are "Aliens".

[DoomRulz]

Wiseguy...
