It’s amusing that BitTorrent seems to be a place where people get movies they would NEVER otherwise pay for.

A good percentage of those top movies score very badly in the IMDB ranking. Which probably means that people will only watch them for free, either via torrents or when they eventually appear on TV.

Of course, I wouldn’t watch Butterfly Effect: Revelation EVEN if it was free.

has anyone noticed a disappearance of aXXo. His last upload on his Mininova account is “Punisher – Warzone” on 11th March.

As it is now the 30th i have become a little worried about him/her/they.

Although there was another gap between his uploads of Transporter 3 (23rd Feb) and Twilight (5 March) of quite a while.

In other news: TorrentFreak is mint! keep it up guys!

There is nothing there really worthy for the top ten list there.

Inkheart is what was supposed to be a GOOD book to movie transition… didn’t work out

OHH NOO I see ITunes is raising their prices!! Funny how digital information continues to rise in price!! Its supposed to go DOWN in price. Isnt that the whole idea? OH and BTW WELCOME ABOARD ALL NEW PIRATES SEEKING TO GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ITUNES!! Ahoy new MAtes!!

Bedtime stories was pretty good as well.

But Yes Man was better.

…But honestly though guys, it would be pretty epic if aXXo disappeared.

17 Mar 30, 2009 at 22:30 by #YLS#

A life without aXXo is a life not thinking about.

We’d no longer have impulse downloads.

18 Mar 31, 2009 at 05:05 by Bigboudda

Forget about aXXo. Ripping 160min movies to 800Mo should be illegal… uhh wait…

Anywho, let’s just hope BDRip.x264 will be more and more popular/early released.

@ 17 – How narrow minded…

I guess Yes Man is worth a watch then, even if just to settle my curiosity.

20 Mar 31, 2009 at 17:35 by esck21

@18 BDRip its a little bit bad, because the file size is huge!, is just…

And for those who say something about aXXo, you have to think a little bit, he’s another human being, he has things to do too…

21 Mar 31, 2009 at 17:51 by Hmm

Too bad most of these movies SUCK

aXXo, if you read my comment, please response to it, we love you man, come on we`re waiting…

I enjoyed Echelon Conspiracy though it makes you go to sleep sometimes and suddenly a lot of action blockbusters would want to have. I even had the feeling they were shooting real bullets to the actors or trying to kill them for real.
And the funniest quote of the year from this movie for me:
- Some day all these you see will be yours…
- Really?
- No!!!

About Inkheart, I think I saw a trailer that it was saying the main actor gives life to the words he is saying from books and that somehow he ended in a book. Totally misleading. I saw it and got bored.

Where exactly is torrent for Ong Bak 2? It seems that a lot of the torrents floating around are for slightly different movies…
