should have balls cut off for being a pansy and not paying for manliness of that magnitude.

A sad day for the internet and privacy but still downloading a new movie for free is a crime no matter how you slice it.
perhaps, but this kind of assault on your customers (or people you want to be customers, if you assume they don't buy any movies) is still a bad idea as it more or less guarantees you're losing a (potential) customer.

Wait some one pirated that movie?

I thought only good movies got stolen. I mean don't think I have ever seen someone stealing a copy of the Mario Brothers movie.
I think the "this is not even CLOSE to being worth actual money, but I'm curious and bored" mentality is actually quite common. It's one of those scenarios where no money is lost, because fuck if they would have actually BOUGHT that shit.

If I watched the movie in the cinema can I sue them?
Cause the trailer was false advertising, since it was better than the movie.

Its like "Spore" no one really liked the game, but people pirated it because they "Could" and to send a message to EA about their damn DRM

Hmmm.... ya know, this could be a new way for movies to make money... If the movie flops in theaters, release the DVD early, let people pirate it, then pounce!

A number of lawsuits later, you've earned much more money than you could've imagined!

I wonder what they would do if someone downloaded it then bought the DVD.
If I paid for a pair of jeans after I stole them and wore them around town for a week, i would still get arrested.

Sue to poor people, too! Sue 'em all, rich or poor!

Poverty is no excuse for piracy.
Ahh, yes. Because generating homeless people does a lot to *improve* crime rates.

And we should just let everyone get away with piracy on such a chance?

It's not like they are going to sue each of these people for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Good to know I have nothing to worry about, I'm not even touching that film with a 100 meters stick and also I don't live in the US.

Of course not, they're going to sue each of these people for millions of dollars.

Honestly? I'd bet about 2 of the people who will get these letters are actually guilty of doing the deed it accuses them of. For everyone else, it's blackmail.

Am I the only one that thinks the Expendables is good? I went to the cinema to see it and pre-ordered it on DVD, the story lacks but if you need to kill time with some senseless violence it is great.

OT-I don't pirate anything, I think it is wrong. People should get sued, it is theft.

Yup, I'd be sued for being a moron and not pirating a good movie.
That about sums it up. Why the HELL would I want to pirate a piece of crap like The Expendables? Stallone has been irrelevant for at least 10 years.
That's not true, what about Driven? His fast paced, Indy car film about him trying to help a young protégé keep his cool as he is slowly crawling down the ranks.
That movie was a critical and commercial failure. It didn't even make half its budget back and was critically panned.

Rich people in a $100,000 house? up here that is really cheap actually, and gets you a house with one floor and about 3-4 rooms.

EDIT: For the record, I meant cheap quality, as in a cheap house for $100,000 gets you a crap house with few rooms and no furniture.
