Do you have a list of movies, games and whatnot to pirate this year?
I know I do, something to make the holidays a little more cheery since budgeting appears to be tight. I need something to make me somewhat happy.

There’s plenty of paid tutorials out there. But that’s the one thing I’m happy to pay for. That and independent or small team software.
You can always try!
I’m still waiting for Zootopia 2 to come to streaming. I got a theater recording, but would love a higher quality rip for quality. This is just Sonic 3 all over again for me.
I would watch it on my parents d+ account when it drops, but I ain’t giving them any more attention then I have to. Especially after the AI debacle going on between them and openai.
Respectfully, Sonic 3 was one of the trashiest movies ever made. Zootopia 2 seems interesting but I am scared because 80% of the time version 2 of a movie is twice worst
I personally really enjoyed Sonic 3. So, to each their own. I’m still holding up hope, based on some of the tempting video review thumbnails I’ve seen, so I’m hoping for the best. The optimist in me won’t give up yet.
Muppets Christmas Carol
The muppets family Christmas is a great one too.
It’s like a cross over of all Jim Henson properties.
I was like Leo pointing at the screen the entire time.
Great movie.
the nightmare before christmas
Stranger things
I pirate monthly every IMDB 6+ movie and series that got dubs in my language and send an HDD to my father, who only has a cheap cellphone internet plan.
That’s adorable lol
Do you automate that or just check the list manually every once in a while?
Manually. There is this group I follow, every end of the month I check what they uploaded throughout the month (their posts have the IMDB score).
You’re a good son
How many movies is that per month?
Last month it was about 50 movies and it was a high number - I also don’t download horror or Hallmark-like stuff.
Thx!
probably nothing. AAA games are not worth the bandwidth, even free.
haven’t watched a movie in years because it’s all garbage.
tv shows are even worse then movies.
I just don’t consume media anymore. it’s all slop. I only support Indy developers by buying now, and watch streamers talk and play games. that’s it. they deserve my money, and my attention. not companies.
I don’t understand the down votes. People do not agree with AAA games being shit? Because they are successful at being boring expensive bug simulators at most. Or they don’t agree with all the Hollywood slop being the same old boring feel-good happy ending shit? Or the fact that you pay indie devs who actually make proper content worth it’s money, as this is in a piracy group?
I really don’t get it. I totally agree with you.
If you want something good to watch, look into European films and series. There’s a Danish-Swedish detective series called Brøn (the Bridge) for example. It’s a really good. Or Wallander. Also Gaspar Noé makes really good movies. Just prepare to feel sick after, they’re really horrible and heavy. The British series Utopia (2013) is also really nice. Often European producers don’t follow the standard boring and predictable Hollywood formula.
Don’t steal from honest people. Steal from predatory companies and asshole billionaires instead. It’s the pirate code!
pirating isn’t even stealing, since nothing is actually lost. only potentials which were never gonna happen from me anyways.
I assume the downvotes are because of the movies/tv shows and I quazi insulted things people embassy enjoy.
to be fair, the best movies I’ve s een and do rewatch, are movies from countries not western.
my top 2 movies are Battle Royal, and Death Note (the human one, not the animes). subtitles are 100% fine with me. the. along came that hunger games thing and people went wild, meanwhile I found it bleh and rewatched battle royal again, and again and again. I do like movies, just VERY little past 2010.
I will for sure checking your movie recommendations, I’m not against movies and such just everything ‘western’ is bleh…it’s all the same vibes every single time.
these days, all my media is from small content creators or Indy devs. I pirate way less then I ever have and buy almost everything. I have no objection to pirating since it’s not technically theft, but I do want Indy devs to be appreciated so I buy.
I’d say the biggest studio/dev I buy from is Team17. never seen a game I didn’t really enjoy by them. simple, nothing predatory and fun.
Personally I find it boring to watch streamers talk and play games. Plus they go on like two or three movie lengths of time per stream. It’s never been my form of entertainment. I only have watched Let’s Plays on YouTube, mainly because the time is more constrained per video where it doesn’t make me feel like I have to watch some 7 hour stream that makes me have to make all the time for it.
I remember once of trying to view a video that was 6 hours long, it took me over a month to finish it from beginning to end. Simply because there’s other things I’d like to see and do during that entire timeframe. I’m not going to make a schedule just to watch some uninspiring dude attempt to be entertaining. Plus the whole game streaming scene has brought about its own level of controversies and drama.
I believe the downvotes are coming from the fact that you just do not curate your content. Don’t expect yourself to try and watch everything and play everything with the end result of enjoyment. I find it hard to be convinced that there isn’t anything out there for you to enjoy that can be provided from top-level companies of any kind.
It’s what always bothered me anyways whenever I hear that people say “oh there’s nothing to listen to anymore, all music sucks” only to find out that the only thing they listen to is the radio. Of course FM radio is not going to play music you’d like to hear, that’s not what they’re designed to do. Get yourself Sirius XM or something to explore music, whatever it takes, just stop relying on FM Radio.
So no, I’m not gonna buy it that there is absolutely and truly nothing out there for you to enjoy that is provided from levels of entertainment. People just have a curating issue and are expectant of certain companies to spoon-feed them what they want. It takes effort.
AAA is shit, but even in the sea of slop, there is still good movies/TV.
And audiobooks exist.
What is the best source for audiobooks?
anonamouse
I have heard audiobookbay is good these days
I personally haven’t found much. I always gravitate back to movies like battle royal, death note etc… best western movie I love watching is short circuit.
another poster gave some euro recommendations I will be checking out. I’m not against media movies or whatever, just none of them are interesting. it’s all the same general premise for me.
I guess the last tv show I liked was that superhero one with the wrestling guy. cena was his name I think. it was edgy and pushed boundaries. I appreciate that.
I understand. Sturgeons law applies. Wading through trash is an issue.
And I think you mean ‘peacemaker’. It is good, looking forward to season 3. Looks like you have a curation problem.
That’s also kinda how media has just changed in the past decade.
Whatever series I follow will be automatically downloaded with sonarr. But I recently downloaded Star Trek Voyager, I almost finished season 1 so I’ll probably continue watching that during Christmas.
This year, I don’t have a clear list. It’ll probably involve some random music. Maybe I’ll finally get Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2.
NeoLemmix with the Holiday Lemmings pack.
Yes it’s trademark infringement not piracy but still a damn good game.
Yarr, maties! Me gonna pirate all them movies!
Arr stack is fully configured and is ready to go. In 2 weeks I will deploy RPi3b+ in a country where piracy is not punished yet. It will act as a proxy though Tailscale VPN. Got 12tb drive for my NAS and will order more later on. External UHD drive purchased and tested. I’m all set! LET THE HOARDING BEIGN!
Fallout. Isn’t the new season starts airing this week ?
IIRC release is in two days, but definitely this week.
Nice try, Officer, but I’m not falling for it.
Adobe Substance Designer :D
I’ve been using Material Maker but I can’t learn much from the 3 tutorials that exist, so I pirated the industry standard one with its 1000+ better tuts.
Also wasn’t a good time using SD tuts while on MM, was very hard to find similar nodes/operations when following along. Made it much harder to actually learn what does what and why.
Are these all abode’s own tutorials, or is it mostly the community? Because if this is adobe, that would mean they’re doing something good.
I do the video club approach, browse once a week and download whatever catches my eye.
