You could wait till it gets into the video rental store, I suppose. ;)

**** happens. The number of games that I don't download which turn out to be Renegade... bah
What you don't want is [removed]. They have hashes to let you get exactly what you don't want. But remember not to visit the site and use the hashes, as piracy is bad :)

Ok, i'l be sure not to ;)

this sort of thing discurages you from DLing things doesn't it?
the sort of thing a campany who had something to lose from you DLing it would do, isn't it?

This "don't click it" stuff is getting nonsense.
Note: Never, ever click [link removed] It does crash your system. Unless you have a proper popup blocker that is.
And I never tried to download MIB2 to find some Scandinavian version of a Disney movie.

Sounds like a good deal to me. :doubt:

I'd rather see the version mentioned in Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back.
Good Will Hunting 2 : Hunting Season :D

There's something wrong with the picture...
Someone complaining illegal activity didn't pay off. :wtf: Right.
Its your business if you support P2P with such activity but don't complain over something like that. Or then learn to use better P2P networks.
I am not saying I don't use P2P. I am not saying I don't download movies off from P2P networks. But I am saying that I don't openly tell people what I am doing with P2P networks and complain if something I download didn't turn out to be what it was supposed to be. It hasn't happened to me for years though, maybe because I use something better than Kazaa.

My complaint is that for the last 2 weeks, on DIALUP I've waited for this to finish. Then it turns out to be a movie i never liked, let alone have seen many times. If you can't see why i'm upset, look again.
-
Now, really, this isn't the place to complain about this stuff. And no links to sites that offer illegal content, please.

Actually Micheal Moore gave permission to release his movie on the internet, and encourages peoplet o get the truth.
He made one statement in his career about him not minding people distributing his movies online, as long as they dont profit from it.
Proof: http://moorewatch.com/index.php/weblog/comments/714/
Download works, i got my copy there. I'd like to thank micheal moore for freeing up the rights on this movie and allowing us to distribute this on the internet for free as quoted below:
Moore was asked by a reporter, “When people download your movies without paying for them, do you think it’s a good thing because your message gets out?” Moore’s reply:
I don’t agree with the copyright laws and I don’t have a problem with people downloading the movie and sharing it with people. As long as they’re not doing it to make a profit, you know, as long as they’re not trying to make a profit off my labor. I would oppose that."
So this man basically waived his rights, and allowed anyone to distribute his products for free. Therefore no one is breaking any laws. He asked for it after all and now that its happening i hope he deals well with it. The site has been up for months, and has had no tlegal threats brought to it due to his statements.
I respect Micheal Moore and anyone who seeks truth, and i respect him even more for allowing his movie to be distributed for free online. I mean after all he already has enough money and F 9/11 has already hit top box office numbers, dude is getting his money's worth and then some.
Legally, his statement allows you to do exactly what he said, distribute without making profit is legal in Moore's Movies case (any movie) and since this statement a dedicated site has been made to him with his movies available for download.

[color=66ff00]I think there might be issues with the distributor and other involved parties though, it's a very grey area.
