Has anyone seen it? go rent it if you haven't. it's like Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, without the british accents.

Ocean's Eleven?
Yeah, we've got that.
Been experiementing a long time. I finnally got it down pac. (Swordfish was my first, thus why it's so large.) I made Ocean's Eleven really big just because I like that movie, and it's full res.
I'm sort of a quality freak. So some of those were a mistake, and someof those were meant to be that large.

Are you a psycho? I *could* conceivably make these guys around 600-1200, but they are around a gig most of them, and mostly indistinguishable from the original at the same resolution too. Why would I want to go Mpeg?

I dunno, because I enjoy watching my movies on a 61" HDTV as opposed to my 19" CRT?

my own little side note:I liked Ocean's 11......it was a fun movie....but I especially liked that they didn't mess with Vegas geography too badly.
I HATE watching movies with Vegas in them because I lived there 6 years and they always mess them up.
Perfect example: ConAir - The crash scene at the end is physically impossible, for one the Hard Rock and Rio are NOT ON THE STRIP and for another the casinos that ARE on the strip cannot possibly go in the order they were crashed into ...
ok...I'll quit griping... Ocean's 11 rocked for this (although I'll note that 2 of 3 of the casinos robbed are owned by Steve Wynn... I was really hoping to see the Treasure Island in there since he owns it too...I believe)

most of the people out here that i've met try to do a english accent and fail miserably, more often than not sounding like an australian.

I ain't moving my box every time I want to watch a movie and every time I want to connect to the net. Computer on first floor, TV in basement.
