I recently filled up the holes in my Rifftrax collection when moving it over to a Plex server and the only movie I couldn't find in reasonable quality was Eragon. Someone called PBNZ took the time to sync an HD version of the movie on PirateBay, but I couldn't really get a connection to the one remaining seed, so I was wondering if anyone had a copy they'd be able to share here.

Thanks!

Maybe try that torrent again. I just connected and unless the seed quits before I'm done, I'll have it in an hour.
Torrent swarms are fickle things. More often than not, if I just let it sit, it does finish.

That's fair, I'll try 'er out again.

Oh shit, thanks UMe2, this is one of the few Rifftrax I've never been able to find in HD, and thus I don't rewatch it often... artifacts make a movie hard to watch.

You're welcome.
Just a few fun facts:
The reason this one is hard to find may be, that it doesn't sync very well and about one third of all riffs needed a ton of manual adjustments - sometimes a small additional delay, sometimes the riffs came too late. And I can tell you, it's a nightmare trying to match the riffs to the movie, that goes out of sync every few seconds(!), especially during the fight scenes, when there is little to none (audible) reference to when exactly what riffs should play. And no, this is not a PAL vs. NTSC problem, because the other two thirds of the movie do sync perfectly. I believe, I've spent 6 hours or so on this alone and I'm still not sure about two riffs being at the exact correct place (they work where they are, but they also would work a few seconds off...) . I've no idea what version MK&B were riffing, but it certainly wasn't the BluRay. Additionally, I found no info about different cuts or versions of this movie.
I'll never do this one again
And yes, I'm also extremely sensitive to compression artifacts, both in audio and video. My releases do add some video artifacts compared to the untouched BluRay, but to avoid these I would have to double or even triple the size - and that's not really worth it for a marginal improvement. I believe, I found a good balance between size and quality.

Now that you mention it... yeah, I think MKB are riffing a version that only ever got released in SD. I believe I read that once upon a time.
