They look like crap, I won’t watch them.
Same and I have pretty much have no opinion outside of that.
Not worth the storage space. I’ll wait for digital/physical release.
If I want to see a movie so badly, I’d rather go to the cinema rather than watch a low-quality camrip.
I ended up using a cam for a movie from 2009 to check to see if the movie had differences between the theater version and the DVD release. It didn’t but it was neat that I could, 15 years later.
So I respect it, but also, good god will I never actually watch them for the actual movie itself.
😮never thought about the archive function of CAM releases
The turnaround from screen to home media has gotten short enough to where it’s fine to wait for a high quality version. Cams were good in the 80s when you bought the VHS tapes from some dude selling them out of a box down in the subway. Though the odds of brining home a blank were pretty good!
Reminds me of the good ol’ days in the 90s. Watching cam recordings and people standing up or taking loudly the entire movie.
Haven’t watched a cam recording in decades. Don’t plan on doing that again.
I feel bad because someone paid for a ticket and sat there filming for 90 minutes but I can’t stand them.
Yeah bad way to enjoy the film…
I’d rather wait, or pay to see it in a theatre. Every time.
Yeah, I’ve got this dilemma with Deadpool. Broke af but really want to see it.
All of them have really bad audio and as such, they’re completely useless.
Even TS releases?
The audio of a TS is captured with a direct connection to the sound source (often an FM microbroadcast provided for the hearing-impaired, or from a drive-in theater).
TS releases do have good audio. Cams in general have a lot of visual problems though; poor color accuracy, warping, incomplete frames, sometimes people moving around, things like that. Also pretty much every cam I’ve seen lately has been covered in ads for sketchy gambling sites throughout the entire runtime. None of this makes for a good viewing experience.
Also, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a cam with subtitles available.
Telesync, maybe
Eh, I’ll wait for a better version.
Given that some films are getting post-release edits before they appear on streaming or physical media, it might be a good idea just from an archival perspective.
I’m not a good judge of piracy methods for consumption, as I am currently willing to pay their prices or do without.
I cannot fathom why anyone would want to subject themselves to such utter horror.
Like it doesn’t exist for me. Same for MD
Usually I hate them, but there’s this deadpool vs wolverine cam edited on my private tracker. It has blown me away. I swear if I didnt know it was a cam I wouldn’t have guessed
Don’t listen to this weed smoking wanker. Their copy is half French and half sign language in Korean.
