I agree - don't steal from a genre we all love. Go steal some Pee Wee Herman movies - no one will care.

Actually you can stream movies from your computer to your Xbox 360 or PS3 and still watch them on a TV, or store them on a flash drive....not saying you should, just saying it's possible.

Depends how much space you're willing to give to a movie. The HD rips are better than any real DVD quality, but they're usually at least a gig...but I agree that downloading can be a gamble sometimes, you never really quite know what you'll end up with from most sites.

i'll be the 1st to admit - i download films i cant find.

if they're good and become available i replace them with origionals.
(i did just that this weekend)

any movie i suspect of being so-so - i'll download. if it's good i'll replace it.
(i always prefer origional packaging - and all the extras that are usually stripped out of DVD rips)

but if a movie is bad ... fuck them

a shit product is made, then hyped as the next best thing - and you waste 90 minutes of your life on it - and that's stealing ?

well, yeah - the people who made the movie stole 90 min of my life. they are the fucking theives.

I convinced friends to go see both House of the Dead and The Villiage. I paid for a babysitter and movie tickets ... and my time.

both movies were garbage - unenjoyable. I got suckered in by clever ads and bullshit hype.

Those movie stole from me.

If i went to a restaurant and was served something blah .. and the last mouthfull tasted like absolute shit - i'd get my money back.

If i bought a toaster and it only made the bread lukewarm, i'd get my money back.


when i sit all the way through a film thinking it might redeem itself by the end - and it doesn't... i get fuck all back... not my admission, not the $30 I had to pay the babysitter - nothing.

Make a good film, you deserve every dime... make a piece of shit that wastes the time and money of everyone who was suckered into seeing it - you deserve to lose every cent - except for the people who somehow still think it's a good movie.


I'm not looking for anyone's approval - this is just how it is with me.
