I have no idea what you're saying but I did catch "look at it from their side". The way I see it, RIAA / MPAA have WAY more money than I do, and they should spend it on helping the movie industry, rather than persecuting us financially unfortunate.

But in the US it's legal to shoot someone who's trespassing, right?
Hooray, loss of freedoms backfires on the authorities :) (and if they don't have a search warrant or official reason to be there then it's probably trespassing).

Yes, if you willing give up your freedoms they can do everything you say, just as Hollywood has conditioned. In my house, however, I have a gun and gladly shoot intruders.

I find somebody with a camcorder in my theatre, getting handed over to the cops would be the BEST-case scenario.

All you IDIOTS who say that it is stealing are F’N SNITCHING FOOLS and thats the bottomline cause I said so.

Let me see some MPAA IDIOT at a theatre I go to and I will personally walk up and ask em are they ready to be a hero for STUPID crap?

Furthermore IF I ever decide to go to a theatre and cam a movie I’ll be taking my 9mm Glock with armor piercing rounds with me in case some minimum wage loser decides he wants to be a hero for the MPAA because If Im going to get 3-5 years for camming I may as well shoot the SNITCHING loser and anyone else associated with them but not kill em that way the 3-5 years will be justified for shooting SNITCHING BITCHES!!!

I won’t pay them one cent ever again. Not at the theatre, not at WalMart. You hear that studio suits?!!?

I am going to make sure you MPAA LOSERS never receive my money, my family’s money, my friends money. I am going to actively impact your bottomline. I am going to enjoy dropping the dime on you to anyone who will listen. I’m going to continue to Download it all off the usenet anyways and watch it for free. And then burn DVD’s of all the movies I download and sell them to friends and associates to further finance my internet and usenet activities like I have been for years already and all the while laughing at you F’N FOOLS who think that I should kiss your asses or go to prison. I will go to prison when they pry my cold dead hands from around my Glock and then I wont be going to prison I’ll be going to meet GOD who will welcome me to Heaven with OPEN arms and 100 fine ass young virgins for making everyones lives on earth more enjoyable with all the stuff I gave away for FREE on the usenet and torrents for over 5 years now. SO think about that all you MPAA supporters!!!

“I don’t get you people. He was stealing. Just because you don’t like the business practices of a company does not give you the right to steal their property.”

He was not stealing. He did not take the movie from anyone, he just made another copy of it.

“We have laws in the USâ€¦. live by them or LEAVE!!!”

Why does America hate freedom so much, anyway?

Just one?

Even after a cam release has been made on the internet?

Jeez, talk about closing the gate when the horse bolted long ago.

As much of a DVDrip snob I am, I think DARK KNIGHT is the rare case in which Hollywood will noticeably BENEFIT from cam piracy.
Reason? Because I got off my ass and out to a theatre to see it, and now I’m simply not going to pay for another theatre experience of that movie until I can thoroughly analyze the thematic elements of the script that were transferred to film. One more viewing will not help me with story appraisal, as that requires much control over the viewing experience (ability to replay/skip segments). In ANY theatre, I am primarily appraising image, and despite being at poverty level, I will GLADLY do that at least twice more (pay $10 for a single feature screening!!!!) for The Dark Knight but ONLY if I can have the complete experience I want, which REQUIRES that I appraise the film simply for its dialogue execution and pacing; if I want the proper visuals, I know I must view this film on a proper screen again (preferably IMAX) which means that even a DVDrip won’t cut it. But I’m not shelling out a chunk of the pittance I have for a compromised experience of what *MAY* be one of the only decent graphic novel adaptations the studio system has produced in decades. The only way I can know if this is a film worth paying for again is to have access to a cam version.
