Movies Online Leaked By Hollywood Insiders
from the well,-duh dept
For all the talk from the movie industry worried about kids trading movies online and lawsuits against DVD copying software companies, the movie industry might want to first spend some time cleaning out their own house. A new study points out that it isn't a bunch of kids at home who digitize these movies and put them online. It appears to mostly be movie industry insiders. Folks from the MPAA, of course, deny this - but it makes sense. The movies go online early, and not many "outsiders" have access to them.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

The Beta Distribution Model?
In the future, could we have a "living document" model of movies in which audiences come up with ideas for improving a given movie, so that upgrade patches are continuously downloaded? Then the "same" movie will be different each week. We could make many different versions of the "same" movie that appeals to different audiences, telling them what they want to hear. (Hollywood already does this to some degree.)

Re: The Beta Distribution Model?
This Living Document idea will be predicated on a completely CG method of movie creation, and the MPAA will not allow so many actors to be out of mandated work. I'm sure the commercials will come out, just like they must have been in the blacklisting era: "Are YOUR actors real? Don't use a computer to do the job of a human."

Can't believe they've just figured this out!
Saw the Hulk the other day too - it was so good, it must have been done in-house.
Plus some of the culprits are cinema projectionists.
Gone are the days of the guy in the cinema with a camcorder and the rustle of popcorn and people's heads popping up.

The Future Of Films
I've got an idea for a Film I call it "THE SHADOWRIDER" a fantasy film done in the 80's panache of Films such as Ghostbusters Flight Of The Navigator Back To The Future without the comedy Austin Powers: The Man Of Mystery does.
It's all the concept of UFOs and Aliens done in away to what Ghostbusters did very similar to Ghostbusters without Ghosts and Proton Packs and ghost traps in it but something very like it in that kind of approach and manner.
Screenplay registered at ProtectRite #: R692 13102
