TServo2049 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) I don't think nearly 19 million people pirated the ORIGINAL RoboCop this year. It has to have been the new one. The original may be the far superior film, but I just don't buy that it was torrented by THAT many people just this past year. Doesn't make any sense.

CJohn Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 There is always one movie that bombs at the box office but shows up high in this list. This year that honor went to Legend of Hercules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChD Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Robocop ... 1987? The original one? Why? That's got to be a mistake or something. It just seems so random on that list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TServo2049 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) I'm surprised guardians of the galaxy wasn't pirated that much compared to x-men and cap. Either it isn't as popular OS, or it was at a disadvantage to make the year-end list due to being an August release. (Notice that late-2013 films are on the list; from what I understand, while piracy starts almost immediately with camcorder recordings, pirated films don't truly gain traction on P2P until clean sources are released - or leak in advance of an official VOD/home release.) It may make the list next year. Edited December 28, 2014 by TServo2049 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 That's like 90% 2013 movies. Well duh. Why wouldn't it be? they'd have been online for longer, so no shit they'd be downloaded more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rorschach Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Why the hell would someone want to pirate The Legend of Hercules? That movie was shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Why the hell would someone want to pirate The Legend of Hercules? That movie was shit. Because there are a lot of people (read Europe) that like epic fantasy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share Posted December 28, 2014 Why the hell would someone want to pirate The Legend of Hercules? That movie was shit. might have thought that was The Rock one. Or they just wanted to see how bad it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 might have thought that was The Rock one. Or they just wanted to see how bad it was. I found both of them to be quite bad, but The Rock one is easily the worst. The simple idea of The Rock playing Hercules is borderline ridiculous.
