Well another film from the same company has been leaked online this week. Michael Moore’s Sicko documentary on the American health care system has apparently been leaked to the masses a few days ago. This news comes just after we found out about Eli Roth’s Hostel Part II getting leaked online as well.
Now here comes the funky part, these weren’t any cam releases with jerky movement etc. they were full blown screener releases. Both the movies were extremely watchable although Hostel Part II had a few effects and sounds missing (which Eli says isn’t his movie because of it) and it really is annoying.
The leak from inside Lionsgate needs to be flushed out. We need to stand up against these bastards, /Film says that this little leak could lead to a loss of between $5 - $10 million in box office revenues, damn pirates need to be stopped.
Michael Moore has spoken out about piracy before and his stance on it is rather sad, here is a quote taken from the fat man himself
Well, 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 they’re not doing it to make a profit off it, as long as they’re not, you know, trying to make a profit off my labor. I would oppose that. But um, you know I do quite well and I um…I don’t know, I make these books and movies and TV shows because I want things to change, so the more people that get to see them the better, and um, so I’m, I’m happy when that happens, OK? Should I not be happy I don’t know? It’s like if a friend of yours has the DVD of my movie, gave it to you to watch one night, is that person doing something wrong? I’m not seeing any money from that. But he’s just handing the DVD to you so that you can watch my movie. A DVD that he bought, but you’re not buying it, yet you’re watching it without paying me any money. See I think that’s OK, and it’s always been OK, we share things with people. And I think information and art, ideas should be shared.
Man, he is probably gonna come about and release a statement saying he hates pirates and all that bullshit, this needs to be stopped. Here it is, if you guys find the source, I will post his name and address on this blog and send it all around the net to be seen, you are going down leakman!
