LOL, then you should learn the difference between "to" and "too"! ;) :P

I have thanks. Where are you quoting me from as I've not even used to, too or any other variation?

If you really want me to be nitpicky too I could pick up on stacks of errors people make (and definitely visa-versa) but I'm not going to for reasons I've already mentioned.

Thanks but I asked what the average file size was?

Agreed 96Kbps would be fine for just speech.

You can't remember what it was called? That WinAVI software you recommended to me is is really useful, thanks. It's a thousand times quicker than TMPGENC (which is much better overall though).

No you haven't!

Exactly! You've never used "too" before your last post, even when you should have! Look at just about every other post you've ever made. You always say things like "That costs to much at the moment" when you should use "too".

Honestly, you're wrong when it comes to correct usage of "to" and "too". Look them up, and take a look at your previous posts.

A lot of people spell things like that wrongly and it infuriates me! :twisted: LOL!

Other people on these boards (I think EvaUnit02 and someone else) get "then" and "than" confused all the time. They write sentences like "That one's better then the other". It's "than", not "then" damnit!

The other big one is where people say "I could care less" when they actually mean they couldn't care less. Bah, all of you need to go back to school! :)

I wouldn't correct people's English IM as one day you'll make a mistake and people will really notice + you make stacks of mistakes anyway (we all do, it's the nature of forums).

Brad makes a point to spot when IM makes a mistake.

Good spot consider me corrected. You will find I use too as in "I came along too" though, unless like I said I make a mistake.

Feel free to correct me in future but make sure you get it right :D . Mark has corrected me before and got it all wrong. I consider my English to be better than average, average being Romero :D
You've never used "too" before your last post, even when you should have!
That's not an easy job when I've not used either word at all on this page. Personally it pisses me off when people drop I from a sentence as in:

Have been to the car.

They work about about 50+ MB file sizes for an average film :)

I loved the first one, and have the EIV version, which is very good. Its a straight port of the R1 version, and they haven't messed up on the cover. The cover is the same as well
The R1 Columbia Tristar Underworld Ext. version is much better packaging-wise:

The DTS track on the EIV Extended release makes your argument of buying the R1 for the better packaging moot.

No it doesn't, as some people like sexy packaging, and DTS isn't everything. 8) EIV version doesn't have a comic either. ;) The 5.1 on the R1 is shit hot. It doesn't matter as I've sold the dvd now anyway. :D

More than moot it makes it pointless. Besides Slasher was talking about Underworld Evolution NOT Underworld (so all that trouble to upload the photo was worthless :D)

Comics got Porno with KATE GETTING DOWN AND NASTY :D

The DTS is overated anyway, barley (if any) difference. But the packaging is georgous, if simple.

Seriously what's the comic about?

I thought you owned the R1? I'd prefer DTS than not at all so I can hear for myself.

Nah, it only took me about 5 minutes as I already had the picture saved from when I sold the dvd. ;)

LOL, this is what I said
I just watched UnderWorld Evolution and really liked it. I loved the first one, and have the EIV version, which is very good. Its a straight port of the R1 version, and they haven't messed up on the cover. The cover is the same as well. I can't wait for the extended cut, hopefully soon it will come out.... Methink later in Oct/Dec time.
So was talking about both movies, yes I did have the r1, but I think I sold it to someone, I think it may be bruce or someone :D. Then wanted to watch the movie again, so got the r2 version which was only a fiver :)

I will get UnderWorld Evolution, when the extended cut/director cut comes out as I really liked the movie

Waste of time. It's missing the extras from the R1, most notably the commentary.
