yeah but that would look silly and suspicious, plus someone could steal them.

besides which they got tiny cameras these days, bootleggers don't even need to use glasses like that. plus the cinema rip days are pretty much long gone, these days the high def version is out a few days later. i can't imagine anyone not being patient enough for those.

The version of Brand New Day I saw was a cam rip. Person walked across the screen halfway through

Many years ago, back when camrips still where back so like 20 years ago or so I once seen a cam rip of a movie i forget the title from. The movie itself sucked however it was filmed in China and the Chinese kids laughing made it really funny and cool to watch. I wish I remember what movie it was and I wish I still had that rip, hence why you should always download and keep everything. I buy new harddisks every year, so worth it. I just need some sort of "God"-AI to sort it all out for me.

Backrooms had a lot of zoomers having "babbys first steps at camripping" moments

Although it is an embarrassingly shitty movie I do compliment them on trying piracy.

most zoomers just stream everything and pay for it, and give money to streamer scumbags and camwhores, so to see them make an attempt makes me smile.
