movie makers , stop releasing different cut versions extra bits edition movies
i stopped buying as many when just as i bought one version of a film i love , another version is released

just release it all in the beginning
i say try b4 u buy as alot of films are shite

I do not want to drive 30 mins to the cinema. I do not want to not have the coice of having a lager in or after the cinema (not that you can in).

I do not want to watch 25 mins worth of adverts for something i have paid to see ffs. Theres ad supported content then milking it. Im sorry but carlton on screen advertising can get f***ed.

I do not want to que. I do not want to miss the plot when i need a piss.

I do not want to usually go and watch the same s**t i watched last time.

obama?

You know, I understand this is the internet and insults are often used in place of insight, but calling me a pothead and making some awkward statements about how a bunch of teenage filesharers have the movie and media industries by the balls is kind of skewed. They aren’t going extinct, they have the political power to ensure that we go extinct. Your extremism is only gonna ensure that every filesharing client is banned with 3 years jail time for everyone caught. Is the free ticket a publicity stunt, sure. But that doesn’t make it an evil action. And what do you suggest is going to help the filesharing community? Resisting and spamming the twitter sites of movie corporations, while pretending we have some sort of “power” that is causing the multi million dollar industries to go “extinct?”

Please try to be more civil in your responses. I’m not a drug addict, nor retarded, and I didn’t call you one. I’m just making an argument, just because YOU didn’t like it doesn’t mean I’m stupid.

that sounds like a plan.

One side wants to kill us all, the other one wants us to see its movies (and sometimes, us to pay for it ^^).

I am the only one who see that the sherrif element is doing nothing but harm to both sides and good for none but themselves? :)

Also, its pretty cool to see something on the more positive side rather than the threats we have learned to expect from them.

Nice gesture?

They gave her a ticket to see it for free to prevent her from… Uh… Seeing it for free. Y hello thar, publicity stunt!

“In the end, the MPAA doesn’t get a chance”

Good. It’s done nothing to deserve one.

“two extremes that will never, ever, come to a compromise? That attitude will get us nowhere.”

If you think compromising with the MPAA will get us anywhere, I suggest getting your head examined. Nobody has nor will ever have the power to put the P2P genie back in the bottle. Trying to fight it is an inherently losing battle, so there’s reason whatsoever to compromise with the MPAA. They’ve already sealed their own demise at this point, what on Earth could be gained from bargaining with a dinosaur which will just inevitably become extinct?

Not that this has anything to do with Miramax, anyway, because it doesn’t. They’re the ones who pulled this stunt, not the MPAA. You must be smoking something.

But seriously I don’t believe this story at all.

The fact of the matter is, the corporation, as scary as you all think it may be, did something beside litigating and freaking out. Do you choose to commend them for a generally decent action?

No.

You instead read into it, assuming that “OH IF IT COMES FROM A CORPORATION GOD FORBID IT MUST HAVE SOMETHING BAD” Despite the nice gesture, you all immediately shit yourselves over “OH THE FBI TAG HOLY SHIT”. Was the tag a little unwarranted and forceful? Sure. But you all seem to focus entirely on that, despite that the organization did something decent for once.

I guess my issue is that I think this is the root of why the MPAA and all those other assholes choose to fight filesharing and piracy tooth and nail. What’s the point of trying to appeal to you guys, who are so inherently hostile?

In the end, the MPAA doesn’t get a chance, and that’s not fair. Have they done some sucky things? Sure. But does that automatically mean we have to declare Twitter jihad despite the end result of this little confrontation turning out positive. No. Two wrongs don’t make a right. Second guessing your enemy only leads them to believe the only way to stop you is to fuck you up. This only begets more bullshit because whatever a corporation does, no one is willing to give them a chance anymore. Can’t we all just get along and try to reason with each other for once? Or does it have to be the MPAA demanding “ALL FILESHARING PUTS YOU IN PRISON” while you all demand “EVERYTHING SHOULD BE FREE”, two extremes that will never, ever, come to a compromise? That attitude will get us nowhere. They made a nice move. Why can’t we repay it?

in before reasoned mind sock, endless flaming

so the point here is make movie watching cheaper and well probably stop downloading your crap, anyways the only reason i’ve ever donne it is because i wana make sure i’m not going to go waste mmy time and money on a crappy movie peace!!

I don’t think this comment makes sense anymore.

this message was NOT spell corrected and from now on IM MISPELING EVRYTHING
JUST TO IRRITATE SUITS

Amanda, una muchacha que quería descargar la película Adventureland junto con sus amigos a través de este servicio P2P mandó un mensaje a Twitter que decía: Ugh, ¿Por qué Adventureland no está en torrents todavía? Hasta ahí todo era normal, p…

Exactly! She’s boned now….

Hopefully she’ll cam it for the rest of us whilst she’s there.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

So Download instead wait..

Simple – Is’nt it??

…bunch of people saying the same thing to MM about how Web 2.0 they are. Some of the accounts that said “I love that you guys are stalking people on the internet. Very Web 2.0.” have one post.

There’s nothing Web 2.0 about this, and I’m willing to bet it’s a publicity stunt.

Not so sure

Google has 180,000 hits, (some look real)

TPB has 1

Wonder why TPB are waiting for a court ruling, not Google.

Anyway seems like a nice way for Miramax to get all of the contact details so they can pass them to MPAA and others.

Can you say Entrapment
