The movie is great. Some people will complain about anything. First the movie is missing alot of CGI and you can clearly see the harnesses in it. Second there is no missing 20min. The story seamlessly transitions from one part to the next. Ive watched the download version two times and though flawed I will be definitely see this in the theatre.
 
Lunch table conversation today was about someone who had download this and watched it. Just from his comments at lunch, there are now a couple more people that will be going to watch this when it comes out that wouldn't have gone to see the movie without his encouragement.
 
The way I see it, it is a good source of learning material for movie editing students. They will have the opportunity to witness its development from "this version" and its "final cut version" with all special effects applied, which normally do not happen on daily basis.
 
[citation][nom]Grims[/nom]I didn't download it, I don't want to ruin it for myself...but I have a hard time feeling sorry for movie studios when it comes to piracy. When I see actors being paid north of 20 million for a few months of their time.[/citation]


I agree 100% movie actors are the most overpaid a--es of our society. for thsir eason i can't understand how some one can be an "actor groupie". most actors wert eh unpoular kids in high school , eyt the grow and form this "clique" knwon as the movie industry and then throw them selves on pedestals above other poeple.

also of note the movies industry is the only industry where the LEAST creatively involved employees are the better paid employees (and grossly so)

granted a CEO in agmae company makes the bigest bank and doesnt have ahands on in teh creation of a game ... but the difference ther is a long shot form teh unbalanced pay of movie actors. like an average CEO of a game company makes about 150k-200k a year while say a lead art designer in a game makes about 60-80k a year

however , teh average script writer makes aroud 200k-400k a year , and the average actor makes upwards of 2 -10 million a year ... see the massive difference ... and lets face facts , those holy wood show ponies can talk all the BS they want .but actinG IS NOT A HARD JOB !!!!!!!! it uses next to NO real iamgination or creativity PERIOD. actors are told how to act and they do that they have no creative power in the characters they are acting to be.



any way enough of my rant. holywood is crap , and for teh most aprt i try to watch independant films these days adn stay away form most teh mindless drivvle that holywood is pushing
 
hooray for piracy
free is always better
film companies have tons n tons of money. fuck em
 
I just refuse to download such film. I'm a fan of the X-Men and always watches them in theater and rent them when available. X-Men isn't the only thing that is leak on the internet but for those who download and like the movie. The possibility of them renting the actual movie is high. Film maker/publisher is just greedy that's all. I don't think people DL this film will stop me from going to the theater or renting it. Might as well as put a metal detector in movie theater and scare away bootleggers and people altogether.
 
Ya, all this piracy is really hurting movies,music,games.. Yet they still seem to break record profits when they actually produce something worth buying. I don't believe in piracy as an idea *go figure*, but do like it in practice... The little guy finally gets to make the big one cry.
 
there was one executive at fox who said this was completely unimportant.

something about those who download fit into 1 of 2 categories:
1) people who wouldn't pay for the movie either way.
2) big fans that will pay to see it in theaters anyways.

personally, I would download this, because I love the series, and I want to be able to see what it looks like before they put all the special fx in.
I'm also the type that would probably see it in theaters 3 times if it is as good as it looks in the trailer, and then buy it on blu-ray, Even though I can get it for free online, and probably will once i purchase it on blu-ray, just so I can have it on my computer, rather than having to dig through my movie collection and worry about damaged DVDs, especially when the protection layer on a blu-ray is so small.

 
I HATE comic book films! especially X-men crap - every single line is a cliche, the story is completely predictable and the acting is horrible. They're never violent enough and always embarrassing to watch. Why would idiots pay to watch such trash? If it is made by Marvel I give it 15 minutes to gain my interest. If it doesn't by then I'm done.
 
[citation][nom]loopz[/nom]i wish dragon ball z movie was the one who leaked. not this...[/citation]

It was......
 
i juz saw the movie yesterday. its a dvd copy.we played it in our home, me & my sisters watch even though its a "leak" from that film we cant wait so see that movie.

i wud say, ya its trully unfurnished we can still see their harness, the digital stuff........

but it still.................. i still watch it on the BIG SCREEN.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 
Personally I watch the movie in theatres because of the crappy quality and sound of the pirated versions. But I also feel nothing for film maker whom moan about pirated films – those guys make an immoral amount of money out of a movie even with piracy and still demand more. Would the pirate please a up load films with better quailty and sound so I can stop supporting this greedy money grabbing clowns.
 
Honestly, having seen the leaked version myself I have a greater desire to go spend money on the movie and watch it on the big screen. I think that this X-Men movie puts the other ones to shame. It was so much more well done. Or maybe I'm biased because Gambit and Wolverine are my two favorite X-Men. lol
 
anyone who thinks this movie could be good or will be good is very deluded. this whole movie series is a travesty... a horrid rape of the original comic series and doesn't even do the cartoon series much justice. that anyone could honesty claim to be a real fan and also claim to like these movies is incredible. now to the loss of money from the early release. i don't believe it will hurt them because those sheeple that are clamoring about the 'experience' and 'glory' of sitting on semen encrusted theater seats surrounded by juvenile lovers and nerds will suffer through the ordeal anyway. they somehow percieve it as a good thing. well it's been a decent stretch of time since hollywood or others released a movie worthy of going to the theaters for so why should i believe this heavily mutilated comic book super hero movie will be any better?
 
Fox leaked it after the saw how crappy the movie was going to be! This is the worst X-Men of all time. Wolverine and Sabretooth are brothers, WTF?!?!?!?
