I see this becoming a trend on movies that do just ok in theaters.

Summary:

Hurt Locker producers sue 5,000 people for illegally downloading their movie. If each person pays the 2,000 fine and not go to jail, that is pretty much lost money from making the movie. I can see this becoming a trend.

Interesting, would suck to get sued for something like that tbh

I just downloaded the whole Mighty Ducks trilogy :3

But yeah with recent movies your best going to fastpasstv and seeing if it's on there, streaming > downloading.

So we can still stream movies though, right?

Yeah a few directors have done this but its soo much effort for them to do and track that not many others bother

genially everyone knows the risk they take when they do things illegally

i just stream as its safer and if its shit quality i can stop after 2mins of loading instead of downloading 25% of the movie and going on a mad one.....

ive torrented 200+ movies including hurt locker and havent gotten anything, also if you read comments on torrents theyll tell you if its being tracked, anddd you can remove all trackers on a torrent which might slow it down a bit but you wont get caught.

they only did 5000 people they might see how the cases go. Also they named some Joe's which is basically they dont know the identity of the people yet.

There was a torrent site that released a statement regarding the lawsuits that actually makes a lot of sense...

They said that, if the company were to sue everybody who pirated the movie for the amount they wanted from each individual, they would achieve a grand total of $20m, when the movie only made somewhere around 15m at the box office.

lol
