Pirata DVD

Do people still go to cinemas to watch movies? With the availability of sites where you could watch or download movies like torrent and other peer to peer or P2P sites, I could just get my serving of movies at home. There are actually several Internet users that use P2P file-sharing services to download movies, aside from music, applications, etc. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if a survey would release a report claiming that 95% percent of all these downloads were illegal.

What does this tell us? Besides solidifying the fact that people love downloading free entertainment. It exemplifies that P2P has become heavily engrained into the fabric of the Internet. But as we’ve seen, there are crackdowns on digital lockers that allow media sharing, shutting down certain sites and targeting the other remaining sites. However, this isn’t the first time downloaders have witnessed their favorite file-sharing portals bite the dust.

Eiga Sai 2012

Eiga Sai started last July 6 at the Shang Cineplex of Shangri-La Plaza and will last until July 15. Since the first day was a Friday, still a working day for us and a school day for the kids, we decided to watch the following day, Saturday July 7, and intended to catch the 2:00 pm film entitled Ninja Kids (a live-action adaptation of a Japanese manga about little boys training to be elite ninjas and how they handled the situation when a real assassin shows up in the home of a fourth grader).

But unfortunately, the queue for that particular film was already closed when we got there. So we end up falling in line for Tomorrow’s Joe, (a live-action adaptation of a popular manga about two boxing rivals pitted against each other to determine their fate) scheduled at 4:30 pm.
