Hollywood Doesn’t Care About The Bootlegger’s Struggle!
The jig is up, folks! Those blasted Hollywood suits (a.k.a “The Man”) are cracking down on all you kids illegally snatching their films from the Internet.
Unfortunately if you’re even remotely technologically literate, this is a sad day for you. Because Voltage Pictures has decided to sue 5,000 unidentified BitTorrent users. Which means they’re going to try to subpoena the ISP’s for the identity of people who have downloaded movies. Which means if you downloaded The Hurt Locker just to see if it kinda sucked or if it was more watchable than Avatar [you] will have to pay the price. [Manolith]
That’s right! Recession or not, these folks demand your hard-earned money if you want to view their movies. Hell, they may start sending the feds to barbershops and drop-kicking your local DVD man! Is it really that big of a deal, though? Do you think people should really have legal action taken against them just for the free download of a movie or song?
While you decide on how right or wrong these procedures are, you’d be wise to lay low on the downloads. A fat Hollywood lawsuit may leave you with just enough funds to survive off of weekly Taco Bell Grande meals and free cups of water—it doesn’t seem worth it just to see Madea’s Trip to The Gynecologist.
Times like this, I’m glad I got a busted computer. No downloads for me.
It aint that serious but I see why they all butt hurt
But still they wanna sue folks 1,500 when the movie would only run them what $10?
Hurt Locker wasnt even that good to begin with
They just tryna come up and hit a lick
Thanks for letting me know, Dep!
Now I don’t have to see that mess.
Note: Hurt Locker was supposedly the lowest-grossing Academy Award winner (for Best Film) in history.
