[QUOTE=sleepyperson;18736541]Then you hate the people but not the actual thing, Yet you say you hate it when you don't which makes you a hypocrite.[/QUOTE] I hate the thing because the thing is what fuels the people to piss me off to no end. And I never said I don't hate it, I said if they didn't pull all that bullshit I [B]WOULDN'T[/B] hate it.
She was arrested because the MPAA's little anti-piracy methods have gone completely out of control. No one seems to give a fuck that industry lobbyists are locking the entertainment industry down to the point where everyone who doesn't follow the expressed wishes of the MPAA/RIAA are deemed criminals, or directly including international politics with a "super secret" Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement.
She got what she deserved for singing Happy Birthday in the middle of a movie theatre.

That doesn't make much sense to me at all.

I'm simply hating the source of what pisses me off.
[QUOTE=vassikinexthree;18736877]I hate twilight because if it wasn't created then the fans wouldn't be doing anything to begin with. I'm simply hating the source of what pisses me off.[/QUOTE] But its the fans pissing you off so there the source of what pisses you off. Now if you hate the source of the fans I get it but that would still be a hypocrite because your hating the people who like it, but not Twilight. So from what I gathered here if there was no fans in your face about Twilight you would not hate it which in return makes you look pretty stupid for hating something because other people like it a lot.

Why would you want me to bandwagon, then I look even stupider because I can't form my own opinions.

I use to do that but then I stopped and now I like things I used to hate or more less bandwagoned on hating it.

ITT - IF SOMEONE LIKES SOMETHING THAT YOU DISLIKE YOU SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO BURN THEM AT THE STAKE BECAUSE THEY DESERVE TO DIE. :hitler:
[QUOTE=vassikinexthree;18737429]So I should embrace the bullshit that's being thrown in my face?[/QUOTE] I never said that, I just stated that you should in general ignore it and create your own opinion cause if you make one off of there so called bullshit your just as bad as them. Which you already explained that you did in the the tread.

I think the authorities purposely arrest the people doing the smallest things to set an example. If they had arrested someone for filming the whole movie people who are filming only part of it might think they can get away with it. But these people didn't even do anything wrong. It's stupid.

It's just the small ones like that that get in the news because the people go to newspapers saying "OMG I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING I'M A VICTIM! RUN A BIASED STORY ABOUT ME PLZ!"
She broke the law. She is receiving the punishment that has been in effect for a long time now. End of. It doesn't matter what your intentions were nor does it matter how long you did it for. The law doesn't make allowances for people like this.
[QUOTE=vassikinexthree;18737507]Actually, I saw New Moon. [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=848037[/url][/QUOTE] You didn't really see it, you just went and tried to piss people off. Stop trying to argue that you're right, you even know you're wrong.
[QUOTE=sleepyperson;18738215]You didn't really see it, you just went and tried to piss people off. Stop trying to argue that you're right, you even know you're wrong.[/QUOTE] I still had to watch it. I also know the plot and that alone seems stupid to me. If the plot seems stupid then why should I even bother giving it a chance?
[QUOTE=Watevaman;18732135]You wouldn't say the same if it was District 9 or Zombieland, now, would you?[/QUOTE] twifag spotted wait what was the text for that one jerking off emote
[QUOTE=vassikinexthree;18738605]I still had to watch it. I also know the plot and that alone seems stupid to me. If the plot seems stupid then why should I even bother giving it a chance?[/QUOTE] Well seeing as the plot to New moon is just a rewrite of Romeo and Juliet. You insulted Shakespeare even though he is dead. Also I hope your reading this on a alt.

[QUOTE=Cheesemonkey;18733337]She gets caught with 4 minutes of twilight yet there are cam recordings of movies EVERYWHERE?[/QUOTE] The judge most probably hated the series.
[QUOTE=vassikinexthree;18732647][img]http://farm1.static.flickr.com/186/377881024_99996a5675.jpg[/img] Legally she could have gotten up to 5 years and the fine.[/QUOTE] It was only four minutes, and she didn't do any of that. She can record it without a problem (and even if there was still a problem it shouldn't be three years) but she cannot distribute it without warez charges. I dislike the series, but this is ridiculous. I came in to see many members acting like children and was not disappointed.
Twilight fans are insane. I wonder if they'd still go watch New Moon if they were warned they'd have to go to prison for a week immediately afterwards.
[QUOTE=NeoDement;18742466]Twilight fans are insane. I wonder if they'd still go watch New Moon if they were warned they'd have to go to prison for a week immediately afterwards.[/QUOTE] They'd stand up for their rights to watch a movie.
This is dumb, zero-tolerance laws are horrible. However, I'm not going to jump on the bandwagon saying that piracy of a movie is alright. I think it's one thing to rip and share(for free) a movie with people. However, I absolutely hate the people who go into theaters with video cameras in order to sell the movie. It brings the whole industry down because quality in the movies is shit(have you ever watched a cam movie? It's fucking horrible), and these bastards make money off of a shitty product that they don't even own legally. So fuck bootleggers. If you sell a fucking movie then royalties should somehow go to the people that made it.
[QUOTE=vassikinexthree;18734482]It doesn't matter if it's reasonable, the law was passed so you have to fucking follow it. You aren't SUPPOSED to have a camera in a movie theatre to begin with, it's her own damn fault for fucking around with it while the movie was going. [/QUOTE] Refer to my previous post on that page.
[QUOTE=Marijuanananana;18732256]She should have recorded the movie in Canada, we have no laws against filming movies in the theatre, [b]the staff there just frown on it.[/b][/QUOTE] Good thing you can't see that in the dark :v:
3 Years is too much. It should just be 36 months jail term instead
[QUOTE=BCell;18743605]3 Years is too much. It should just be 36 months jail term instead[/QUOTE] Or better 1095 days
[QUOTE=Computermaster;18731716]Three years for 4 minutes of Twilight? Should be life.
