Full Version: downloading theater cam movies

Do you ever download or torrent those theater cam movies while movies are still in theaters? Basically really shitty quality of someone's video cam on in the movie theaters, sometimes it's sideways, there are people's heads in the way, and the sound quality pretty much sucks.

I hate it when I tell a friend to see a movie that I really like and they're like... "oh, I'll just download it" meaning they're going to download the shitty version, then later, they're like "eh, I didn't really like it."

Well, duh, you didn't like it. I'd hate it too if I was watching it sideways with bad sound quality.

No love for bootleg movies. You just don't get the full experience.

^ Truth.


I can't stand anything with bad quality. Plus all the extra noise from the people make me feel like I'm watching a TV sitcom.

bootlegs are just plain funny to watch sometimes because of the ghetto factor of them..people walking, getting up, coughing..etc.

but i agree, im not down for bad quality movies..if theyre movies i ACTUALLY want to see really badly..ill go to the theatre myself or rent it out.

No, but that's because I'm the opposite of most people: I know how BitTorrent works, but I don't know how to use it.

How could you right programs, but not know how to use bittorent?

I dunno. I never got around to figuring out where the "good" BitTorrent sites are.

I use isohunt. I like the lack of porn ads. But I have found piratebay to have the most seeds, and the most content. But the redirecting every 30 seconds is a little annoying.

And a lot of the time I just google "what im looking for" torrent.

for example.

Then I choose from pirate bay or isohunt if I can. I dont ever download music or movies though. I always buy them.

idk, what would you use torrents for? it's really only useful if you're going to be downloading big files i.e. movies, programs, entire seasons of shows, or entire albums at a time.

or programsm, or linux distros.

All illegal. Except for linux distros.

I know a few individuals who write programs and have not ever utilized a BitTorrent site. :p

Also, voted "no." I tried once to watch one but felt like I was going to get motion sickness at any time.

I'd rather pay & experience the movie.
