One eye blast and it is all over. Superman was being controlled. He should have killed batman in one second

He wasn't trying to killing him, he was holding back, fighting the control ivy had over him

But poison ivy doubled the dosage when she found out that superman was resisting.

With all this you mentioned, a webdl is really the worse quality if you want to enjoy the movie with your "gadgets".

There are different qualities of video files

Brrip
Web do
HD rip
Web rip
Pvrip

Your br rip is directly from the blue ray
Your web dl is from a streaming service eg Netflix or amazon prime

Your HDtv rip is basically an analog hole capture from the the TV

Ditto for webrip

I only got one pvrip ( pay per view) and that was tangled the movie years back when I could not wait

There is a marked difference between HDTV rips and webdls. I remember my first shock when a 480p the walking dead webdl was way sharper than a 720p HDTV rip. Since then, I have focused mainly on webdl. Also because I don't like those artifacts from HDTV rips.( Logos, adverts etal) I can wait for a complete season webdl release. As of today I have not watched got because I want to watch the entire series in a uniform quality. (Earlier dls are 480)My data use has changed and I now focus on 720, 1080, and occasionally 2160.

A proper webdl will upscale with then picture sharpness intact. An hdrip will be blurry like when you stretch a picture to fill your desktop.

I have also moved from using nitro to mkv cage. Nitro has the smallest 720p and 1080ps but mkv cage has proper chapters and they name their files properly

I remember years ago when I bought one of those 10 in one dvds. That was how I first watched alien and it was destroyed for me by the 320p resolution it had been downsampled to fit on the dvd. Same way back in uni,
I and my friends had a movie night with a cinema dub of the lost world. We all agreed it was a lousy movie. Then a year later an uncle sent me a clear vhs copy. Neither I nor my friends could believe it. The difference was night and day.

So I always try to ensure I can have the best experience I can afford. Quality video, quality hardware, and enough tinkering to get the best out of both. Need to find a one button solution for soap opera effect. That made an already difficult TLJ even harder to enjoy

Ah, a man of science and taste.Because of naija power issues, I have been shying away from using a NAS. I should probably take the plunge though. Right now it's the crude local hard drive that has to be updated every week or so

Next step for me is to properly organize my rom library so I can enjoy retro gaming proper. Funny how freeware playnite is better at identifying games than commercial launchbox.

The ongoing struggle is dolphin and my wii library. The wii is no longer in production and the controllers on the market are hit and miss. I have been having pairing issue frustration. Of course it could just be me getting older and missing a not so obvious setting or maybe just assuming things would work as advertised.

My setup is mostly in the living room. I have tried to conceal wires as much as possible. My soundbar supports hdmi pass through, and that was the root of my original misery. Most of the audio options simply did not work. Once I guessed I could simply connect one pc hdmi port directly to the soundbar hdmi in and another hdmi port to the TV, everything started working beautifully. smiley




NAS is great as long as you have fast internet connection, otherwise, you're better off with your rudimentary local hard drive.

My setup is mostly wireless. One of the advantages of having an unlimited AT&T Wifi subscription that cost only $20 a month, I guess.

All this i know and that's why i said and repeat, webdl is really the worst source with your set of gadget you have and for you to enjoy. And Nitro encodes are okay for those who want to minimise data cost and still get a pretty decent quality (stop using them since like late 2015 early 2016), mkvcage is the absolute worst place to go to if you want to minimise data cost and retain quality, ridiculously big size with a quality on per with Nitro, They are my absolute last place for me to go to for anything.
Now back to the question of webdl, as you rightly pointed out it is a Digital Version (HD) quality tho but with your "specs" of gadget is simply not enough.
After Webdl, there is Brrip 720p>Brrip 1080p (Full Hd upscaling)>Bluray 10bit 720p>Bluray 10bit 1080p, Bluray 10bit 1080p 3D > finally Blu ray 10bit 2160p (HDR)(4K). The latter 2 are encoded only for "collectors item" movies of which Endgame is an example on one, and that's the quality you really want to be getting for your range of gadgets, but is a data killer, lets take captain marvel for example, on the site i used the 10 bit Blu ray 2160p HDR was about 2.10gb and the Bluray True Atmos 7.1 sound file (for a cinema sound experience this you mux with your soundbar if it's 7.1 CH compatible) was about 3.98gb so the movie with that quality will set you back at least 6.1Gb!....Always remember mkvcage is the absolute worst data wise and quality wise....Shalom

I have moved beyond data killers. Swift is free 11pm to 8am and they are FAST. Watch a nitro file and an mkv cage file using potplayer. You will see nitro does not have chapters. What really killed nitro for me though, is that they do not name their files. I do not have much free time, so the files move to a clearing house(transit folder).when I am able( usually the files are over a 100 by this time) I then have to spend an entire weekend renaming. Which involves going through 20 to 30 pages copying and pasting names. With mkv cage, files are already named. All I need is to run them through filebot, and the mkv cage name appendages are gone.


Also webdl are the same quality as blue ray. It just depends on the original source. Check the sizes of movies on Apple or amazon prime.

The renaming part didn't bother me, but Nitro encode quality became poor and poor with each passing upload, had enough in 2015, but much respect,i have movies in an entire catalog beginning with "Greetings from 300mb bla blah" with Encoded by Nitro at the right bottom but my stance still remain that MKvcage is a trashy site.

lol little research might help but okay...If Webdl is your thing, Amazon prime is the absolute best source, Apple is usually trashy and the source harder to get.

Uhmn... not really. At 720p, Webdl and BR are indistinguishable in terms of quality. On 1080 or higher, BR has much better crisper colours.

Kaya Scodelario is trying to find her feet and I haven't been particularly impressed with her acting so far..The story line of this looked Cliché but from your perspective was it any good?
I had no clue about the film before I watched it, as it was a secret screening and I hadn't seen the advert. Not bad, I did laugh in some places. Not sure if that was their intention, but I tend to laugh at stupid horror characters. As for the actress, she doesn't need to impress me, since I've known her from Skins. In fact those gen 1 kids from Skins are still killing it. Daniel Kaluuya, Dev Patel, Nicholas Hoult (was already big from About a Boy), Hannah Murray & Joe Dempsie. Kaya even did gen 2 sef as well. She simply needs to choose better projects.

Her only performance i have liked has the been the first 2 installment of Maze runner, she was pretty decent in the last installment of pirates of the Caribbean but that was a terrible movie all together. Thanks for the review as always.

any movie but run away from any DC related stuff for your own psychological safety . Consumption of Dead comics filmography has overtime been known to cause Severe brain fart and I have alot of evidence to back this up . Ie ANTIMCU, Iuwe , Minermys , Tonyspike etc

Please, Avoid DC related movies, if you see DC just delete it then restart your phone to remove leftover residues, because they can crush your phone.
