yeah but the movie still came out as 1.33 gig's

You can preset the size before you run it through but the quality will suffer.
You could try to use another codec. For instance if it is an xvid you could try divx
If it is divx 5 or 6 you could try 7. There are other codecs for making smaller files and retaining a bit more quality.
I don't do recodes myself so I am not familiar with all of them.
