so much for investigative journalism, this was so amateurish i couldn't believe my eyes, another example of why we shouldn't believe mainstream media as they produce biased & unreliable information all the time

piracy problem? nothing new really, remember how we got warnings about it on VHS tapes, just before the movie would start, as a matter of fact, some time after internet started spreading, the piracy (street piracy) started declining rapidly so afaik today it has substantial levels only on asian markets - everyone else is likely to download it off the net (for free ofc and pirated can't beat free, let alone any profitable industry)

drugs on monday, trafficking on tuesday...pirating on friday ROFLMAO, what a load of bull**it

then they talk about profit loss (wolverine was a nice counter-example), when in fact those numbers wouldn't be reached in reality anyways, as we know that every customer of a pirated media isn't automatically a buyer of the same media if there was no pirated version

the matrix wouldn't be made?? nonsense, any good script in hollywood is like gold nowadays since recently the script quality is quite awful

why the sales loss don't affect major actors? simply because they get paid (or make salary deals) in advance, regardless of the movie's final quality or subsequent sales - to some extent it is the same with other employees in the movie production

those who watch cam's aren't quality conscious? well, that means they wouldn't go in the cinema or buy a movie dvd in the first place

the overwhelming majority of pirated material creators & users do it for fun and make no money whatsoever from it, they just save money from wasting it on overrated hollywood propaganda filled movie cr*p

Soderbergh is so much up the ars* of entertainment industry that he is blind to the reality, he should be concerned about making better movies since imo he is sleeping on past time success (girlfriends experience, che & oceans 13 were all far from excellence)


the digital age has shown its trends - entertainment industry can change & adapt or stay rigid & face its demise
