Movie Paul from 2011 is getting so many downloads for some reason 480.73.
Anyone have an explantion as to why?
Nice try, Paul’s producers.
Perhaps some Youtube’s done a video on it… I feel like I’ve seen a headline or link saying something like “Why Paul is underrated” recently.
I didn’t know there was an extended version, do the extra 6 minutes add anything? Maybe not
Thing that gets me. This is the 720p version… surely people would want the 1080p version? Lol
I have a friend who always downloads the smallest (by file size) copy of any video he can find. He has a 75" 4k TV, 5.1 surround speakers, the whole setup but he downloads 720p in stereo almost exclusively. He says he just doesn’t care about the video or audio quality. It blows my mind, but some people are just weird.
Edit: Also, Paul is just a funny movie, if you’re into goofy movie references.
Easier to find a 75" in 4k than 720p resolution I guess?
But I can’t rationalize the sound aspect.
Wait till you find out about the people who play shooters at literally the lowest quality possible AND 30fps
Edit: from my friend who does this, he likes the idea of using as little power as possible
I usually watch the movie on my PC and my setup is plain stereo with a non-FullHD monitor, so… not much point in downloading 1080p 🤷.
So if you have newer nvidia based card you can upscale to 4K based off 7 20p
The result is closer to 1440 p
But, why not just download the 1080p version? Instead of doing the whole upscaling thing?
Thanks. Ill download it now
Honestly, I don’t even remember it being that funny. I haven’t gave it a second thought since its release. The power of social media marketing, I guess.
If you’ve never seen Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, I’d encourage you instead to take a look at Shaun of the Dead, and Hot Fuzz, both really good movies.
My problem was I watched it expecting Cornetto trilogy and got stoner comedy so didn’t enjoy it as much. Going in expecting stoner comedy (when in the mood for it) a few years later increases the enjoyment factor.
