I have been wanting to watch this since release but it isn’t showing anywhere near me or streaming or available to purchase and ironically I haven’t pirated because I figured everyone was in the same situation so good quality rips would be scarce. This movie is a spectacular example of all that is wrong with geographical distribution rights. I will probably still wait for a legit stream on this one because I want to send a positive signal if any service grabs the rights but I can’t blame people for making other choices. Copyright is supposed to protect the rights holders so they can profit from their work but in cases like this it just stops them connecting with their audience and they get nothing, neither money or exposure. I don’t think piracy is harming anyone in this situation.
I’d buy it on Blu-ray tomorrow if I could. They won’t shut up and take my money…
Psst kid hey it’s me the director
I went out of my way to see Minus One Minus Color.
b b b but legendary has to sell a shitty godzilla vs. kong that no one gives a shit about!~ wont you think of the cross-licensing confusion?!!?
I’m absolutely buying it when I can. So good.
Didn’t help that this only played in my city for a limited time in select theaters. Give us blurays!
It played for 1 week in 1 cinema in my entire country… :(
Yeaah I keep checking ot see where I can watch it and can’t find anything. Guess it’s off to the high seas.
I don’t think it even played in my country so…. How do they want me to buy it exactly…
IIRC this all came about because a different company has the rights to Godzilla in the US and that US distributor didn’t want -1.0 to cut into the sales of the new Godzilla Kong movie, which is all bullshit.
Oh that’s really dumb
Maybe they should’ve rushed it instead of delaying it lol
Execs in shambles
How can this be damaging if you ain’t trying to sell it to us in the first place?
When companies deny us avenues to watch / purchase their products wtf do they expect to happen?
I recently… acquired Scavengers Reign. It’s one of last year’s best TV shows, but there’s simply no way to watch it legally in my country.
What country is that? If it’s Canada, then it was (maybe still is) available on stack.tv with ads through prime or apple(?). The delivery is atrocious and stack.tv is already pricey as hell, so I don’t blame you if you pirate it.
Really good show though. Reminds me a lot of Les Maîtres du temps from the 80s.
Nope, France. I checked because I wanted to pay for it after pirating it.
This looks fantastic! Thanks for the recommendation.
I unfortunately don’t have MAX anymore after they dropped Westworld (and all the other crazy shit that happened around a year or so ago) so I may also have to borrow a copy from my friend the internet…
Edit: Looks like my son already put in a Requestarr for it and it’s in Sonarr. The *arr stack really has changed the game after I was out of the scene for 10 or so years.
Same, stopped pirating when Netflix became available here. By 2024 I was subscribed to 4 different services, and was still missing out on a lot of cool stuff. So when I got my first Prime video ad I just said fuck them, bought a NUC, set up jellyseerr+Jellyfin+a bunch of *arrs, and canceled all my subscriptions. Now I can watch anything I want, and the experience is so much better than any of the legal services.
I have a copy of sg-1.
It’s in widescreen, 1080p , the audio is from the Blu-ray and the video is an upscaled release.
My server crashed as I was in the middle.of my rewatch and so I jumped over to prime to continue as I rebuilt my server.
It’s in 4:3, maybe 720p, horribly dark. Audio was recorded on two cans and a string and it has advertisements.
I couldn’t watch it. It was such a painful experience.
It’s crazy how they fucked themselves out of revenue streams so completely. Within 6 months of canceling all our streaming services, I was able to pick up 4x16tb HDD’s for a JBOD connected to a NUC for about the same cost (likely less all said).
A lot of us that grew up sailing the seas became stable enough to afford the media we wanted and docked our ships. Now, I’m back on my favorite newsgroups like it was 2001.
There’s that quote from GabeN, I won’t repost it, but it’s true. There’s a serious service problem and the greed isn’t helping. Now I’ve got a multi terabyte NAS and backup with a streaming services and a Steam account I’ll never make through the backlog of.
All that said, when possible, I still by the stuff I like on physical, but even that is getting harder and harder anymore.
The biggest mistakes these shareholder appeasing cock puppets are making is thinking we don’t have a choice anymore. We do and they are greater than they’ve ever been.
Good job everyone!
I did it exactly 12 hours ago
Any copies of “the most pirated movie in the world” the dubbed version?
Someone mentioned the dubbed version might not be until November. I couldn’t confirm it but I assume when ever it releases worldwide.
Is there another way to get it?
Can someone explain to me how this movie stand in the whole godzilla franchise?
Suppose I am a guy who only watched the original godzilla movies from 85
It’s basically a remake/update of the original
Edit: not the American edit
japan should just have streaming service for all there shit already instead of always Licensing it to companies in every country. if they keep doing it this way then there just doing it too themselfs.
