It appears that some smart alec at Universal has leaked The Hulk onto the net two weeks before it's even released in AMERICA. Quite amazed to be honest, downloading the 800MB VCD (great quality) off of BT now :)

*Waits for someone to tell him that Universal didn't make the film* :D

Bah I do, but I'm impatient and I have ADSL, so when I put the two together, I can get The Hulk. And I'll go see it when it comes out anyway...

No, foo' - it's totally new people - Eric Christian Olsen and Derek Richardson, in fact.

Not nasty, pretty decent, actually. And any films I download that ARE decent, I do go see them. In fact, I've been to see the Matrix three times at the cinema and have seen the pirate ONCE :)

The cinema is much better. It is the way films were meant to be seen. Sure some cinemas are dumps, but in Glasgow we have the UGC, the worlds tallest cinema, and the Odeon in the city centre, another newer Odeon on the Quay, a UCI in Clydebank in the west and a Showcase and another UGC in the east.

With all of them being good, comfortable cinemas, I really don't have a problem with flea pits. I don't think it would be worth the hassle of downloading a poor quality copy.

I fancy seeing Dumb and Dumberer. The trailer looked good, and the guys are dead ringers.

nah, having the means to get blown to pieces on Unreal Tournament by players 100 milion times better than me is all the justification i need :)
oh, and the fact that GTA 1 is a free download from the Rockstar site!!

But you do buy DVDs of films that you haven't seen at the cinema, and I presume you enjoy them.

And most of the films that people bother downloading are DivX files from DVD screeners that are practically indistinguishable from DVD quality.

So, casting morality aside, what's the difference?

That's got nothing to do with it. I stated my points about why I'd never download a movie before it came out at the cinema. Nothing to do with high morals, as anyone who knows me will tell you.

All the ones I've got are from DVD Screener discs converted to SVCD. Like adrian says, anything thats a cam copy isn't worth the effort as it will be crap. If the original isn't sourced from a DVD screener then it really is a waste of time, no sense lowering standards :)
