A lot of screeners on that list.

  Someone has been particularly brave. I hope they covered their tracks properly.

    ya or a “team” might boot their door in and…
    - N_mailer
      
      … dance around, then pay for the damages to the door.
      
      And then down the line, the releaser would be sued.

      I couldn’t say for sure that you are wrong. Bizarrely.

  I personally think screeners should be filtered just like CAMs.
  - Anyone
    
    you clearly have no idea
    those screeners are DVD quality, they are not filmed in the cinema, but ripped from the DVDs the Oscar jury gets
    - http://www.ehsankia.com/ Ehsan Kia
      
      I know very well what a Screener is. It still isn’t up to my standard though, sorry. Having a cropped or tagged image, to me, is just as bad as a CAM. Also, sometimes it’s not even the final post-processing that you get.
    - Anyone
      
      besides the occasional “for your consideration” these movies are in perfect quality
      
      of course, if you only watch 720p or 1080p you’ll be disappointed, but DVD quality is very watchable for most people

I’ve created a userscript which adds a link to a TPB search for the corresponding movie. This can be quiet handy if you use this list to find new movies to download.

“Zero Dark Thirty” should be renamed “A Vulgar Display Of Power”

They had no right to sneak into a foreign country on a hunch and murder someone(s) and the fact that Americans are proud of this disgusts me !

There should have been a trial and there is no reason why the seal team could not have captured such an important target alive !

This is clearly a crime by the World Police.

I hate living on “Planet U.S.A.” !

  The USA might wipe Pakistan, Iran and any other Islamic country that exports their vile medieval cult off the face of the planet.
  Gets my vote.
  - xpmule
    
    Pakistan and their nukes might have something to say about that ;)
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pakistan_and_weapons_of_mass_destruction
    But i guess their WMD’s are ok but Iraq’s are not ?
    
    Your not wiping anyone from anything..
    America can have George Bush stand on a aircraft carrier with all the “Mission Accomplished” all they want.. doesn’t mean it’s true.
    Let me know when America succeeds at getting the bad guys.
    from where I’m sitting it seems like their racking up more enemies than they can kill quick enough..
    
    comments like yours is why people throw jets into buildings.
    sad to think innocent people may suffer because of people like you !
    thank god more than you get to vote because the many sane and rational people in the USA get to have an opinion too.
    
    Watch that movie.. they killed him and then muttered something about God.. Americans get christ’y about any dumb crap.. its all over your money lol
    So what makes your 1 of 4,200 world wide religion superior to muslim’s religion ?
    the USA god may have won the battle.. but..
    
    Wake up or wait for the next tower to get hit.. it’s your choice America !
    
    It might help things if that American propaganda movie included the full story rather than the view portrayed that it all started on 911 when evil Obama attacked the USA randomly out of the blue for no reason.
    
    Seems to me the best thing to do would be to think about how this all came about and reflect on what could have been done to avoid so many innocent lives from being cut short.. the ONLY way to honor these people !
    OR
    do what your doing America..
    let me know how that works out for ya guys lol
    
    You know I’ve thought a few times in my life about a nuclear attack and every scenario comes up as well they would hit somewhere in the states and i wonder if it would be close enough to my Canadian province.
    It sucks being beside a mouthy bully always trying to start shit with people everywhere.
    
    anyway many countries like China and Russia have been watching this behavior and try pulling this bullshit with them lol

  Atheist here. I’m not a USA fan in the least but I’m not a fan of some backwards cult that glorifies the murder of innocent people and considers women inferior to men. Islam is truly a sick “religion.”
  - Pling
    
    You’re not a fan of USA, but a fan of hate, wonderful.
    
    Funny, the other week some kids decided to talk bad about Jewish,
    today other kids decided to do the same about Muslims.

    “Some backwards cult that glorifies the murder of innocent people and considers women inferior to men.”
    
    You just described pretty much every religion, ever.
    - xpmule
      
      yup
      
      look at the genocide in Darfur.. Their christian leaders organized and conducted rapes and murders right from the church pews.
      
      There is an endless stream of historic examples of christians being the source of mass murders..
    - pops87
      
      Re-read my first sentence please.
  - xpmule
    
    any criticism on what happened on this movie seems to be an contorted and warped on an attack on The United States of America and there for means i / we then support Terrorists.
    
    Your blind and defensive if you can’t look at any situation objectively.
    
    If police were able to wander around killing people at will with no trial if they feel like it and i support this does that mean i am stating that i support all criminals and the crimes they commit ?
    
    i better not have to do the whole disclaimer routine.. it SHOULD go with out saying that good and bad people exist EVERYWHERE !
    
    Justifying what happened in this movie because they deserved to be tortured and killed is ludicrous ..pure insanity and sickening Obama parades around like he’s a fucking hero.
    
    Did ALL of the people in that compound get a fair trial ?
    
    What i thought after was i bet ALL those kids are NEVER gonna forget that day.. have fun with generation after generation of suicide bombers..
    you earned it.
- DrDoom
  
  AMEN BROTHER!
- oblsleepswiththefishes
  
  I watched while those towers burned and fell in my city. I watched as all of those innocents launched themselves from windows to escape the flames. My only problem with the Bin Laden raid was that they couldn’t have killed the fucker twice.
  - xpmule
    
    see the problem is a vicious cycle..
    you guys already had killed MANY of his people and they watched his friends and family die and they too watched to kill twice..
    you guys act like Osama Bin Laden woke on Sep 10th and said you know what i want to kill all Americans and decided this by pointing at a spot on the map blind folded.
    
    unless you can wake up and see reality you will continue to watch more people die.
    
    the whole we’re killing you for revenge thing has been going on since 1990ish ..so your defence that they killed people on 911 means fuck all sorry.
    
    If you talk like that then you deserve the next attack.. i have no sympathy for you ..you earned it !
    suffer asshole !
    - oblsleepswiththefishes
      
      A lot of Tibetans abjectly oppose Chinese foreign policy yet I’ve not heard one of them advocate murdering thousands of Chinese civilians. Chechens may or may not have legitimate grievances with the Russian government, but terrorists who kill school kids are still degenerates. Just like people who assert that those who merely disagree with them in verbal terms they find offensive are legitimate targets for murder. I don’t need your sympathy, idiot. The world is a complicated place with many, many shades of grey; but some things in life are still pretty straightforward. Grow the fuck up.
- Djfsdljfldsjfls
  
  You actually believe they killed Osama in that raid? He’s been dead since like 2002 from kidney failure. Why do you think they never showed his body? Because there was no body to show. It’s all a ruse… all fake… all propaganda!!!

  If you think americans are proud of the content of this movie, you completely missed the major point of the movie. At the same time, if you think the US didn’t have the right to kill bin laden for what he did , think again.
  - Tidaltree
    
    “At the same time, if you think the US didn’t have the right to kill bin laden for what he did , think again.”
    
    If you look at the starting point, the US had no more rights than Tiamat had in eating her children. But granted, Bin Laden was no Marduk.

i think Schindlers List could be an even more fascinating movie if there were a nazi hero. Schindler could play the Bad Guy who sets up a jewish army to backstab the german forces, freeing jewish demon generals from sanctified Nazi prisons. Then Adolf Hitler arrives on a white Horse , wielding the Holy Lance to send them back into the abyss. Or mabye Propaganda just sorts the wheat from the chaff

Game of Thrones in March kkthxbai ;)
- 8 Centuries Ago
  
  What’s that? Another American series which will never get a conclusion?
  I live that format…

    Damn, “I love that format” [typo].

    it will get a conclusion when they run out of books

Zero Dark Thirty seemed like the most interesting one of them listed to me.. i read up on them all.
ZD30 was not bad i figured. I’m picky and rarely watch movies but i’d recommend it aside from people political views. Also helps the CIA agent Maya is cute / sexy :)
I just wish they didn’t gloss over the 10+ years of the story that spanned many Presidents including Bill Clinton. With almost 3hrs run time they could have dropped some oft the boring parts and added more history to the story.
How many have done their homework on Osama Bin Laden and related US activity stretching back to around 1990 ?

Anyway did anyone see any of the others listed ? Any good ?
- Wduukapn
  
  saw Django, Hobbit, Silver Linings, Seven Psychopaths, The Impossible
  
  All very good, you’ll definitely enjoy ;)
- Anyone
  
  Django and Hobbit are both awesome
  the others are still waiting on my harddrive to be watched

Can someone explain why “The Master” never was uploaded anywhere? I don’t see anything on torrent, binary, or filelocker. Not a big deal for me, I’m just curious. Something to do with the Scientologists? Considering how every other award contender is up, I’m wondering what the problem was with this.

what the hell, you all must be smoking crack because django was garbage, IDBM reviews bought and payed for in advance, 90% of that budget was used to secure leonardo decaprio, if you tell me he was following the spaghetti western theme, it’s not an excuse to make a overly crumby movie.
- Anyone
  
  Django was great
  it was over the top, funny and bloody, just the way I like my Tarantino
  
  Waltz was great as usual, DiCaprio was brilliant and it’s a shame he was overlooked for the Oscar, Samuel L. Jackson was also great
  Jamie Foxx was a bit disappointing, but he was simply outclassed by all the other talent
  - ScrewEwe2
    
    I agree, I thought Django was great.

7 out of 10 are sreeners….all still at the cinema.

Despite that, they all did remarkably well at the box office…breaking records a few of them (here in the Uk anyway). I am sure the DVD sales will be fantastic as well.

Piracy hurts the movie industry….really?
- Anyone
  
  some of those are not yet even in the cinema here
  Django doesn’t come out until the 18th, for example

  Yeah, you’re right piracy doesn’t hurt the best picture nominees… Or any film with hundreds of millions to blow on marketing… But doesn’t hurt the industry?
  
  If you have to keep telling yourself ‘its a victimless crime.’ Perhaps you’re feeling guilty. I’m not against piracy, I don’t care about piracy. I’m against this fucking Robin Hood mentality to cover for your chic nihilism.

All movies are DVD screenings. Even “Silver Linings Playbook” is a DVD screener (although it’s not marked as such in the list).

Would it be possible to have another list shown as well, where DVD screeners, R5 releases, CAMs, etc. are removed?

I recently got dragged along by a friend to see The Hobbit in the cinema – and I agreed, because I hadn’t been to a cinema in 8 years and I’d forgotten how awful they were. I went in, paid the unreasonable price of admission, paid an extra $8 for a box of stale popcorn with a small hole in the bottom, sat down on the rock-hard seat and proceeded to be subjected to half an hour of non-stop advertising before the movie actually started. And meanwhile the Hollywood fatcats sit around in their mansions and complain about greedy pirates who aren’t willing to pay the modest fee demanded for their outstanding service.

  damn that sucks i like going to huge imax screens my self and pay and extra 10 bucks for a fat person but i am not fat reclined seat and drink a beer!
