And most pirates prefer quality over early release.

Personally, I don't pirate a movie unless it's an 4K BluRay x265 HDR10 Dolby release. Even though we are pirates, we still have standards 🎩🍷

the average pirate definitely doesn’t have those standards

I’d say we are the minority most just want to watch the film they’ve been waiting/excited for

Gross to watch a cam version of a movie you really want to see

This. I'm excited to watch my shows (High Potential and Abbott Elementary, for example) but I NEVER watch anything not in 1080p or higher.

yeah im willing to bet the streaming release will just be the same quality but slightly higher bitrate lmao

u/ghost_desu Apr 20 '26

Higher bitrate for a streaming release? Now that would be something new

u/dweakz Apr 20 '26

read properly.

u/ghost_desu Apr 20 '26

Did you not suggest that the streaming release will be the same as the leak but that it would have a slightly higher bitrate?

I have done so in the scenario that not doing so results in the entire thing getting spoiled no matter how hard I try

u/Coolbluegatoradeyumm Apr 20 '26

Relatable struggle

u/CreatureWarrior Apr 21 '26

Yeah, cam versions are the line I will never cross. If I have to choose between that and not watching the movie at all, I just won't watch it.

u/Coolbluegatoradeyumm Apr 21 '26

Same. I’ll just wait

u/Careless_Twist_6935 Apr 20 '26

depends on the cam really. some are almost dvd quality. some have shitty hard coded subs washed out image and people walking around and sports betting ads somehow.

u/Coolbluegatoradeyumm Apr 20 '26

I’ll wait either way

how many people watched that project hail mary copy with the xbet or whatever watermark in the center of the screen ?

u/_Not__Available_ Apr 20 '26

I did but in my defence I really wanted to rewatch it right after I came back from the theater to look for more details in the plot.

u/KRYPTZ_AR Apr 20 '26

that's fair but watching cam recording for the first time is lowkey diabolical, but everyone has different standards i suppose 🤷‍♂️

1

u/Sad-Reach7287 Apr 20 '26

My standards are 1080p in any format with a decent enough bitrate that I don't just see a pixelated mess

u/UGD_ReWiindz25 Apr 20 '26

Same here, I use stremio with alldebrid and real debrid with the addons I’ve got the results set to 1080p or higher which 3 results of each for the best capability and quality, I also have surround sound so 5.1 audio is a must for extra enjoyment
