    By those ratings, it seems like people are only pirating mediocre movies.

    As I posted last week, I don’t believe there is really a dvdrip of Twilight. This must be a mistake.

      You are right when my quick search only shows Telesync releases.

        Can’t find anything else then a DVDscr or R6 for Immortals either.

    Well since last week I watched “Fight Night” and “The Thing” and I have to admit that both of these were decent remakes and worth watching.

    My greatest annoyance of all was with “The Thing” story when never once did they try to offer the creature peace. If you look at the creature’s side then after being frozen in ice for so long it is bound to have some social issues. Long therapy comes to mind.

    And what is an alien species goal after arriving of a strange planet? That would be to understand and communicate with the locals. The obvious way it does that is by replicating the host but of course the humans had big issues with that. Was it not worth sacrificing one human to achieve alien understanding and communication?

    Even if there is a lot of inter-species misunderstanding and hostility then when she had this creature identified in the vehicle at the end of a flame thrower then there was the perfect point to lay down some ground rules of acceptable behaviour with dos and do nots. You then judge the species based on honouring its agreements and honesty.

    Instead what do we see. The humans are so hostile that the creature’s only option is flee and escape this nasty hostile planet… only to be hunted down by the humans.

    Even this creature being able to fly an alien spacecraft means that it is rational and can understand concepts like ethics if not to understand the need for cooperation and mutual survival.

    For a bunch of scientists these people were morons. First ever alien species encountered and instead of trying to understand and communicate they simply used it as target practice.

    Still it was a good movie despite the start of intergalactic warfare. Lets see how they manage when thousands of battle hardened alien troops turn up.

      Google search on ‘Peter Watts Clarkesworld’ for his short story “The Things”. You’ll be pleased and surprised.

      • Anonymous

        Yes a nice story that can be read here…
        http://clarkesworldmagazine.com/watts_01_10/

        Well that was the script. Idiot scientists faced with an alien visitation treat it more as a virus outbreak to be contained and destroyed. Fear would explain much of what happened.

    • Herptyderp

      Sounds like US policy on “aliens” alright, doesn’t surprise me at all. Never saw the movie but did the scientists sound like this:

      First off.. it wasn’t a remake. It was a prequel to the 80′s The Thing. Go watch it, it will start with the end of the new one. The helicopter chasing the dog.

      Plus if you paid attention, the alien had several chances to “communicate” of it’s own, with out anyone attacking it, but it used those opportunities to kill instead. Like when it was on the helicopter.

      As far as sacrificing one human to further our understanding of the alien, you might as well start sacrificing one human to help further all the causes in the world. And we should start with you. Because it’s your idea. You won’t mind, because it will help the rest of use out. Right?

      • Anonymous

        OK so it was a prequel even if the same movie title and same alien attacks Arctic base just as a major storm is due to hit.

        What I recall is shortly after this alien broke free of the ice that it started its communication cloning phase only to be burned alive. A very good reason it seems to hide and watch to avoid being burned alive again. Cloning is what is does which we may call backups.

        Sure the helicopter is an issue but clearly this alien suspected that it had been found out and so did not want to be returned to base to be burned alive once again,

        You may also note that after the crash happened two of the people returned to base alive and human as well. An act they termed “impossible”. This can certainly be seen as a peace offering when it could have easily have killed and cloned them.

        I was not asking for any volunteers for alien cloning when this creature picked its own victims. They just never used these opportunities to further diplomacy starting with the one word of “peace”.

        The end truth here is seen when this alien wanted to leave this planet behind on its own spaceship. I am quite sure that being half way across the Galaxy in no time removes all possible threats to the locals. It wanted to go home when it did not like it here.

        What did they do? These sadistic bastards who call themselves “humans” hunted it down and killed it rather than to let it leave our planet peacefully. There is the truth when all along they feared it and wanted to kill it and that removed all chances of a peaceful solution.

    Twilight… WHYYYYYYYYYYY. God DAMNit.

    • Anonymous

      You can only appreciate Twilight if you own a vagina. I even know some women who list this as one of their favourite movies.

      Girls please remember that Twilight is living torture to a man who cannot understand the “female” level communication and softness. These are not movies designed to be shared with your BFs/Husbands.

      • Adam

        They are not movies that should be shared with humanity as a whole, and should be burned with fire.

          The latest Twilight is number 6 in the chart. My check shows 9692 seeds & 3067 current downloaders where that seems to be 12759 people who we can safely say like Twilight.

          Also they would not be making so many sequels just to torture you when they are obviously popular enough to make money. Every one has appeared in these top 10 lists as well.

          Blame women is what you should do when it is all there fault. True enough it tunes in to their female ways and they seem to like it. A female concept of the vampire world with some odd views on men that real men find annoying.

          Just list it as a “chick flick” and move on. They can only make so many sequels until everyone is bored.

        • Adam

          @Violated0 ((Due to lack of reply button))

          Eh, Twilight is for horny girls and gay men. I don’t think anyone else would like it other than to just laugh, and even they probably know how silly and flawed it is.

          Twilight is just about detestable characters and shirtless guys.

  • http://www.twitter.com/echoman74 echoman

    You all are pretty funny i actually like twilight any man who loves women would watch what they watch, to be honest wolves are pretty kick-ass. Vampires are played out waaaaay tooo much. But yeah it’s alright with me lmao. It won’t make you less of a man. That’s just a theory.
    Anyways of all this on the list The rise of the apes was pretty inspiring made me think of humans good and bad and the evil fucks are the industry from there.
    Humans will say no to all this tyranny and rise up. The best part pretty much was the scene with cops running off like bitches.
    Everything else pretty much sucks i was very disappointed in immortals since it’s from the same producers of 300.

      Next you will say that women should watch sports if they love their man. Yes do the whole season and learn all the rules. :-)

      Men do man things. Women do woman things. Gays do something in the middle. Then there are metrosexuals the straight gay-like image people who do what their social class expect.

      Yes Rise of the Planet of the Apes was a good movie. Bad humans currently seems a popular Hollywood theme. They of course do that to put the audience more in tune with the non-humans instead of voting for their own species.

      You may want to watch “In Time” when this is a Andrew Niccol movie who is the same guy who brought us Gattaca, The Truman Show, Lord of War and that recent Terminal movie.

      What has most interested me this week is that a new Harold and Kumar movie is due out in cinemas just before Xmas. They have always made some enjoyable fun movies and one on my watch list.

      • http://www.twitter.com/echoman74 echoman

        I do believe in equal rights. So if a female wants to watch sports so be it, lol. Your quote, “man does man things, Women do women things”. Sounds kinda cavemanish,lmao.

        If you have problems with gays, bisexuals, tranny’s or metrosexuals you’re not open-minded enough. Personally, I have nothing against anyone. Each person has their own story. They only people i have trouble with are crooks people who hurt children. Liars cheaters murderers rape etc. You know real crimes not these made up crimes,lol.

        I think i caught that part “They ofcourse do that to put the audience more in tune with the non-humans instead of voting for their own species.” First thing that comes to mind “reptilian”.

        You know i did watch “in time” and should have mentioned that which if we let society continue to go down it’s where our future is headed.I like Harold and Kumar are awesome isn’t it supposed to be in 3d? I’m looking forward to it a must see in theaters, lol.

          In my quote of “Men should do man things and women should do woman things” then I never said what those man and woman things were. Those things will be obvious to those that consider them.

          So a woman can define her life in whatever those woman things are to herself and the reverse applies to a man. The only thing wrong is for women to do man things or men to do woman things.

          As to myself I am more a conservative male who believes in a traditional Christian family life. None of the women I have known had issues with being a woman.

          I did have one ex-GF that was all t-shirts and shorts and the girl had never worn a dress in her life. Some even wondered if she was a lesbian. I said that simply can’t do and I will buy her a dress. She had no objections and on Christmas Eve I did exactly that with a nice purple and white dress she liked.

          She wore it the following day on Xmas and her family were surprised. Like her father had never seen her in a dress before and everyone saw how beautiful she was. I got her hooked and now every party you can find her in a dress.

          The end truth is that every woman needs to be beautiful and desired if not a Princess to their man. One of those things that should be obvious.

          Sorry if you didn’t find the humor in my reply it wasn’t meant to offend you. I just thought it was funny. We might have had a misunderstanding somehow some way. BUt now you’re going into religion which i don’t like getting into just like politics which is how enemies form and starts getting dirty.

          So if i said something you misunderstood “my bad”. But anyways i have no trouble watching twilight with the ladies they can look at the dudes i can look at the ladies lol:)

          If my lady friends want to watch sports or play pool or hockey or futebol(soccer) so be it. ;) It won’t change a woman from being a woman nor would twilight change a man from being a man.

          Hope this makes sense.

          Well quoting equal rights and cavemen is not a very funny topic. I am also not touching on religion beyond the fact that I am myself religious and it is a benefit to my relationships. Like my partner once almost became a nun but they turned her down saying that simply wanting to be a nun is not enough when those that do must be called to this life by God.

          As to sexy women then check out “In Time” when that Amanda Seyfried has just shot to the top of my “celebrity I most want to bang” list. They sure changed her appearance in this movie and I love it when it is right in tune with my desires and she has such piercing eyes.

          Enough of that topic when my woman would kill me for such desires! I can be thankful for anonymity, lol. Well as they say a women in your bed is worth more than any number of Hollywood celebrities.

          Then who knows what Amanda Seyfried is really like? Shallow, vane, ego-statistical, unfaithful and more are certainly options. No good a pretty face when it is all about what is in their head. Also a very beautiful highly successful woman is not such a good thing. Many men desire beautiful women leading to many doubts and such success is very work demanding,.

          So whoever wants to grapple Amanda Seyfried I would say good luck to them when it wont be easy. I am quite happy with what I have including a beautiful 7 month old daughter.

          Congrats to you and your wife. A mans life is not complete til he’s married and has a child/children especially a daughter. I don’t have children nor a wife or girlfriend. But who knows sometime soon i have a few girls in mind.
          No doubt Amanda’s banging meter is on every mans straight man list haha. But your right about ego what beauty can be so deceiving or she could be a perfect angel. I guess you wouldn’t know unless you’ve spoken or know her. But seriously the caveman thing was completely a joke.I know you aren’t lol, it’s the way i read it.
          The reason i don’t talk about religion is because that’s what causes arguments. although i am spiritual there are others that aren’t. My blessings to your family.

    Conan and Cowboys were flops at the box office, with Conan dropping ~70% after the first week. Its surprising to see Rise has dropped down although it was a box office hit.

    In order for “copyright trolls” to log IP address, they must join the swarm and therefor participate in the illegal distribution of their agents work. If the copyright holder is therefore participating in the “pirating” of the copyrighted work, the public should be able to assume the copyright is waived and sharing is encouraged by the copyright holder.
