Re: Attack the Block
I'll share my thoughts on this film later but right now, I have a technical question about this episode. I just downloaded the file, so is the bit rate supposed to be in 64k? The episode sounds tinny. Contagion was in 160k.

Yeah, I'm seeing if anyone minds me reigning in the file size. This one is 46 megs, Contagion was 140.

Re: Attack the Block
My podcast episodes are 64k mono only because they have to be. I have a limited amount of storage space each month (250 megs), so compression must take place. I've yet to run into many people here who think the file sizes should be smaller. I mean, I'm happy with the download taking longer if it means the audio sounds better/cleaner. It's kind of odd to use that professional setup you have with all that nice equipment, only to then output to 64k. Just my opinion, maybe I'm alone here and should shut up and enjoy the free thing.

Interesting... haven't listened yet, but I hated this film, mostly on principle.

C'mon guys, Moose aren't THAT scary. I had some in my backyard the other night... but unless you hit them with your car, and unless you walked in on their kids... they run from you. Very shy.
Well.
Generally.

Oops. Sorry, Zap. I must have been thinking of Switzerland.

Re: Attack the Block
Yup, I have the same problems with this as Pavlich. We're forced to 'protagonise' these vile, loathsome shits, and not nearly enough of them are mauled horribly by the creatures.

Re: Attack the Block
And despite being hailed as a hero for killing the aliens, Moses still knows he was responsible in the first place for killing the female alien. He knows his two friends died because of him, how can he face their parents now?
Oh, and who will get blamed for killing the two cops? Just because the films ends with people cheering does not make everything ok.
