MPA to Christmas Movie Pirates:”You’d Better Watch Out, You’d Better Not Try!”

This year the Motion Picture Association are getting into the Christmas spirit early with the news that ‘Operation Blackout’ has begun with an offensive against camcording pirates in 13 countries. When the MPA starts constructing their slogans from songs, they must be serious. Watch out pirates!

As soon as Christmas came within sight, the Motion Picture Association wasted no time getting into the festive fun by announcing the launch of ‘Operation Blackout’. Cleverly named to darken the mood of the world’s pirates (who are doubtless hoping for a contrasting White Christmas un-ruined by MPA action), ‘Operation Blackout’ is said by the Business of Cinema to be an “aggressive anti-piracy enforcement initiative”, targeting video-camera equipped movie-camming pirates in 13 countries.

The MPA must be serious if they gave it it’s own codename like the police and military do. Nice touch.

“Illegal camcording remains a high priority with our member companies. We will ramp up our anti-camcording activities during these region-wide blitzes which are a key component of our annual enforcement operations” said the MPA’s Senior Vice President, Mike Ellis.

Running right up to 31st January 2008, dangerous missions against people with cameras will be carried out in Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand. Operations will be focused on screens showing brand new movies and those caught will probably be made an example of, as part of the wider aims of the movie industry to re-educate the public by putting them in jail.

The start of ‘Operation Blackout’ will be accompanied by the launch of a new interactive web site (down at the moment) which itself is linked to a DVD-based training package. Aimed at cinema management, this combination of services will be their route to direct advice from the MPA on how best to catch the evil cammers in their own theater.

With a deadly straight face the MPA’s Mike Ellis sang this ominous warning:

“We can say this to all the pirates out there: you’d better watch out, you’d better not try”

    MPA == MPAA?

    There is no way they can prohibit people with video cams more efficiently than they have in the past. Not with current manpower (teenage theatre staff). After all, once the camera is in and out of the theatre, we all know they can’t do a darn thing.

  • EaGle1337

    it’s not going to work. they may bust a few more people but there’ll be 10 more to take their place.

  • Rycon

    Ooo wow your gonna do absaloutly nothing, lol this is hilarious.. you actually think the management is going to give a fuck about your gay parade?

    Its like they know nothing at all about how the real world works.. You think that your going to convince all theaters in 13 country’s to be on the ‘look out’.. and get them to all go to your gay website and look at stupid shit they don’t understand or cant afford. Like get night vision goggles! Yeah you can get those at the dollar tree!

    Its going to be funny how many dvd screeners come out because of this.

  • apan

    I for one like what they are doing. Someone must put a stop to crappy CAM releases that you sometimes watch by accident instead of waiting. Fortunately I have come to my senses and realized that there are heaps of OLD movies to watch instead of the new crap. But my eyes have been burnt by those evil CAM releases more than once. :(

  • fGRi

    what they going to do, put “agents” into every cinema around the globe? bunch of fucking nonsense

  • Knoeki

    you don’t *have* to watch the CAM releases. hell, it’s not even about letting people watch it, but more about “who is the first to get a CAM release?”. The concept is ages old. It’s the old battle for the smacky firstrelease.

  • b

    Moo, the MPA appears to be the international counterpart of the MPAA.

  • Brian

    I can never ever watch or download a CAM Release because They suck, I rather grab a quality release, and donate to the director of the film, and not the MPAA.

    That’s right I’m gonna download pirated films and actually pay for it, but not the MPAA because they are evil/greedy pigs, I will pay the artists, actors, and screenwriters and tell them not to give any money to greedy evil MPAA.

    I rather download DVD Quality, or 1.40GB quality, then a dinky CAM Release.

    Good job theaters for arresting CAMMers, but bad job for arresting filesharers.

    I HATE CAM RELEASES :( They are poor quality.

    I Love downloading quality releases, not sCAM releases.

  • Zim

    Funny thing is that most movie theatres in china, indonesia, malaysia, probably let cammers in so they can make more money, and have a dvd black market shop right in the alley LOL

    ROFL use some logic you FOOLS, you will never stop p2p, so you bust 1 guy in 1 country, do you really think this will make a difference? We are HYDRA you just dont get it do you.

  • Londoner

    Brian i don’t particularly like CAM releases either but, like Knoeki said, don’t download it if you don’t want it. You obviously know nothing about pirating, and yes it is a battle to get the first release. If you don’t want to watch it don’t download it, or just spend some of your own money to actually see it in the cinema. Sheesh some people are such cunts…

  • RC

    Irony is I barely watch any movies any more and if i do want one i just ask a friend to lend me a copy…no bittorrent or downloading required

  • dwmsyron

    Great, put more people in jail over unproven damages. Why would anyone who cares about a movie settle for a cam release? They’re horrid.

    How about I just don’t watch their movies at all? Blame THAT on piracy.

    I am not a cunt, one time my mom downloaded a few CAM releases when kazza used to be around before the RIAA started suing people right from left and she saw one video and it was cammed, so she didn’t like it and I didn’t like it either.

    Just because you don’t like cam releases you want cammers to be arrested? How self centered is that? :/

  • Fuck MPA

    Most Cams versions are horrible but others are great. I found a 300 cam version that looked exactly like a dvd rip but couldn’t be since it was only one week out in theaters. Fuck the mpa, mpaa, and all the other niggers. Besides, its not even going on in the United States? They think that a shit load of releases aren’t coming from the U.S.? Dumbasses.

    real pirates are brave
    fearless warrior who share anything we want in the name of freedom
    we are not easily threatened or intimidated.
    the rights of the majority is more important then the rights of the few who are selfish, self centered and idiotic.
    We the people are waking up in record numbers. The few that are dictators are going down whether they like it or not.

  • Rycon

    You know you guys are right, this is great there doing this. Think about it, there wasting time and money doing something completly impossible, and even if they do manage to cut down on some camming.. so what, lol. This at least takes some pressure off the P2P community in some way or another.

    Any person not working directly for anti-p2p efforts is a good thing, keep em busy chasing the sun while we download ourselves into XMAS!

    Heard it all before from the MPAA. surely they must be boring themselves with the same old shit over and over again.
    Cams are shit, but hey, people like to bring them out and be first. Its human nature and i get the feeling that no amount of hollow posturing will stop it. they should instead sit back and reflect on what a fuck up this year has been for them instead of trying to shit people up before XMAS.

  • James Bone 007

    LoooooooooooooooooL
    MPA i can’t stop laughing.
    Do you know what you talking about ?
    over 3500 Cinema in Russia-Moscow.
    You think all of them will be under control ? Their owners doing it, so how will you catch the owner of the Cinema ?
    They are giving DVDScr directly to pirates hand, no need to use Camera or other shit.

    this ain’t gonna work buddy, this is a cheap way to scare pirates.

    Find a good way :)

    P.S: Pirate won’t die, if you kill Bittorrent, DC++ is alive, if no DC++, IRC alive, if no IRC, FTPs alive!

    somehow people will share.

    I feel pity for you guys. I always read news, you guys trying too much but it ain’t gonna work. Keep trying MPAA / MPA / RIAA / CRIA.

    As i can see, you guys making good $ also. thinking new ways to bust and get money from movie/music companies :)

    this is a great move!! seriously, i hope the MPAA spends ALL of their money trying to stop cammers so that the screeners and R5′s are left alone :)

    yeah, a cam is all about who is first, we get it, honest. but any movie goer must admit they are shit quality regardless if u like to DL them or not.

    its almost shocking that these studios can’t think of better things to spend their money on rather than stopping shit-ass quality cams making to P2P.

    You might be happy to know that artists and musicians, but also scientists, philosophers, writers, and pretty much all types of people responsible for “culture as we know it” existed long (as in “centuries”) before the notion of “company” you’re referring to. You’ll probably also rejoice when to know that “artist, actor or musician” are not motivated by greed and would keep on doing what they do even if it meant giving up their Ferrari… So relax, sit back, and enjoy the slow and painful death of the MPAA/RIA dinosaur you fucking little whining cunt :)

    I want to go over them again, just to show how ignorant som people are.

    Firstly, we are all idiots? lol, this guy thinks he’s Einstein.

    Common theives? I don’t think i’ve stolen anything by copying.

    No company can make money? WTF?
    Since when is art, creativity and expression all about a company making money?

    Love this one: Why would any artist, actor or musician get involved in any of these professions if they can’t make a living.

    Wow.. hopefully this is the case and humanity get back some REAL actors, musicians and artistss. The world needs it. Look back in history buddy, the best artists, musicians etc. didn’t work for a corp. inc. They did it for the art,a love of it and for the betterment of humanity.

    You are all selfish, cheap assholes???

    Another great quote for this genius!
    Everyone , quick, think of a Selfish, Cheap Asshole!! Who do you see? It’s a good discription of your modern businessman.

    Then blah blah and going to hell, which HELL would seem more fit for Capitalist pigs wanting to horde all of human creativness for their own personal benifit.

    I welcome this new world of creative sharing!

    And to all the real artists out there who take up this realm and benefit from it, as many are starting to see now. Congrats and welcome to a new beginning.

    The mpaa still doesn’t get it. all of the movies are leaked onto internet by their own people. i have not watched a cam version of a movie ever. I want the real stuff. I am sure there are people interested in these but not nearly as many people who go for the real stuff. And we all know where to get it. kinde stupid that the mpaa could be raking in more money than God. Funny, how this stupid attitude is going to be the death of them , nice and slow and painful. They have nobody but themselves to blame. All consumers want is their material they buy to do want they please with it. Pirate Bay said it best. “you should never tell people what they can and can not do ” Are You Listening? doubtful

  • I LOVE THE MPA!

    I’ve recorded Attack of the Killer Tomatoes with my 20 year old handycam! and transfered it to a Betamax tape! And guess what? The videotape got all tangled up in the crappy dusty 15 year old VCR! Now i am going to cut out the tape, and paste it together again using sweat from my arsehole and poop from a dog. (That the conversion process) Then i’m going to find a white envelope and Puke+Shit in it. I’ll put the stamp on the envelope using my spit and send the illegal Betamax
    to the MPA as a Christmas present.

    Love + kisses

    Is that what happened to culture when the works of Shakespeare were forced into the public domain?

    Next you’ll tell us that the VCR was to the American film producer and the American public as the Boston strangler was to woman home alone. I wish you’d do some research and look at past trends before mouthing off about things you don’t understand.

    Their right to make money doesn’t give them the right to completely destroy the lives of everyone around them. Thanks to their relentless lobbying, even something as simple as watching a DVD I paid for is illegal under the DMCA because I use Linux. And by the way, what is so illegal about not watching movies *at all*, like I said? Calling people common thieves when you have no evidence could be considered libel. Shame on you.

    If I had a decent cam (or a cam at all.. lol) I’d contribute for sure. It’d actually be hard to get caught.
