Alright now is this going a little too far, or has it already gone too far??? If the biggest crime your committing is download a bunch of crap movies that MGM put out than who cares. You know who cares a company than grossed $368.8 million dollars between January 3, 2003 - January 1, 2004 according to www.boxofficemojo.com Go here for those stats : http://www.boxofficemojo.com/studio/ . This year they happen to be losing money. They want to blame it on the downloads and the bootlegs. Of course it had nothing to do with the score of flops they have been putting out does it. Lets see the list of winners includes Good Boy, Uptown Girls, Agent Cody banks 2, Barbershop 2, and now Walking Tall. Which has not yet made it money back. Again according to Box Office Mojo http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=walkingtal l.htm . Just to clarify I am not saying these are bad movies they just weren't moneymakers. Now we have to take into consideration that we are talking millions of dollars being spent here, and there is some profit. Each of the movies made at least a million dollars, but that won't buy the big wigs at MGM that new beach house, or what ever it is they spend their money on. Well I guess we better get those bas***ds that are downloading our movies cause its just wrong and illegal.
