  1. ^ Perhaps a new TV thread in the same vein as the Movie thread.
  2. We're sorry, but the clip you selected isn't available from your location. Please select another clip. and people wonder why so many download from torrent sites.
  3. From people's reviews on imdb, I'll definitely watch this and make a comment next week after watching the first few episodes.
  4. Yep, it's still pirating even on free to air TV. I made a thread about this some time ago. The biggest amount of pirated downloads is not music, movies or video games - it's TV Shows.
  5. It wouldn't surprise me if half the people on this forum downloads torrents.
  6. It was the one thing I really disliked about Cloverfield - the shaking camera. I found it annoying to the point of wanting to yell at the screen and say, 'Stop shaking the god damn camera so I can watch this!' I couldn't wait for it to be over.
  7. I agree. That's what torrents are for.
  8. I went to a news website, made a few arguably distasteful remarks about the two plane crashes that happened yesterday looking for any reactions. Basically trolling, and did manage to get a bite with someone replying to my post with "Classy comment from a tasteless git!!!". Ah, so satisfying. My work is done.
  9. No, been to a few gyms and never heard of spray bottles and small towels. Sounds like a lot of hard work to have to clean up after you. I find it easier to sit/lay on the towel when I use the equipment.
  10. gyms are like that these days. The first time I went to a gym a couple of years ago, I noticed everyone carrying a towel and was wondering why. Then I noticed people putting towels on the equipment and them lying on the towels so their sweat doesn't get on the equipment so other people could use the equipment after them and thought... duh!. I realy felt like the odd one out, so at the time I just used equipment where I didn't have to sit/lie down on. I guess if you see some sweaty guy not using a towel and sitting/laying on equipment with their sweat soiling the equipment and wanting to use the equipment after them, it's quite a turn off.
  11. The ending reminded me of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy TV Series ending with Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect being stuck on pre-historic Earth, lamenting the eventual destruction of it.
  12. Star Trek to have its world premiere in Australia next month on the 7th April at the Sydney Opera House. http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/story...5-10388,00.html
  13. I don't know if people will start wearing helmets all of a sudden because this person died on the slopes. Many people die from head injuries in different circumstances such as car accidents. Should we then start wearing helmets in cars?
  14. I know the feeling. Been living with my girlfriend for over a year now and the things she said, she would do, etc and then changed her mind countless times is incredible. When we started going out, my girlfriend suggested that I should to do the 'man stuff' like wash both cars, handyman stuff (fix the toilet, do the flyscreens, etc) and she said she would do the 'woman stuff' (washing, ironing, etc). That changed very quickly, I can assure you. I think this picture sums it up perfectly.
  15. I saw Watchmen and Friday the 13th the other day. I thought Watchmen was fantastic. Friday the 13th was good and had a very long introduction. I thought WTF, this is going to be a short movie and then Friday the 13th came came up and then thought, that was a long intro.
  16. 300 isn't a comedy. It's Frank Miller's interpretation in comic format transferred to film. 300 is a rare, surprisingly good and faithful adaption of the comic. If you read the comic, you would see how good of a film it is.
  17. I've always liked , , and that I downloaded all the episodes. After watching all the episodes recently, it wasn't as good as I remembered and now I know why they cancelled them mid season. Eighties TV shows were so cheesy.
  18. What happened for 45 minutes that couldn't have been summed up in 5-10 minutes? Basically, . I know there was some other things, but I felt it just dragged on and nothing really important happened.
  19. What a waste of an episode the last one was.
  20. Next 6 episodes? Lostpedia tells me that this season will have 17 episodes total and this one was the eighth. Great. Imdb, is obviously wrong. I'd like to see how the writers manage to get around with the survivors
  21. Great episode. The look on Sawyer's face after . Can't wait for the next two episodes. I'm hoping they'll show Faraday in the Orchid and more on Charlotte. And then the others with Locke and Ben still has to come. Quite a bit to wrap up in the next 6 episodes when the Season ends.
  22. I would've liked to have seen the asteroid hit. This is a bit of an anti-climax.
  23. I nuked Sydney. Interesting, I thought the area covered would be a lot more. The Tsar Bomba seems to be the only bomb that does significant damage.
  24. So, it's okay to copy tv shows from the tv, whether they be free to air or cable (even the cable tv channels like Foxtel encourage this) for personal use. But you're not allowed to copy the same show from the internet for your own personal use - unless it's from their own TV website such as a podcast. If a tv channel has a podcast, is it still illegal to download it from a torrent site?
  25. So you think recording a show from TV is okay and not pirating. Practically every episode of every TV show on torrent sites is recorded from TV. TV Shows are by far the most popular downloads on torrent sites followed by movies. Also, the MPAA would disagree with you and say that taping a show from TV is piracy - especially if you share it with someone. MPAA sues six BitTorrent sites linking to TV shows. I mean, if you have a dvd recorder and tape every episode of the current season of LOST and don't share it with anyone, then effectively, you have the complete season at home. In a way, it was 'downloaded' via the TV and you 'copied' it illegally, and you didn't have to go out and buy the season on dvd.
