Guests cannot watch DVDs with you, says MPAA head (1 Viewer)

[Will_B]

This has to be a farce made to make the new head of the MPAA look like a fool, right?

 

[ThomasC]

The source, BBSpot, is like the Onion; it's another satirical website.

 

[DeathStar1]

I wouldn't put it past them though. That might be the next step .

The story "MPAA to Thwart Pirates By Making All Movies Suck" is NOT a parody however

 

[Kirk Gunn]

Very funny

Now to clean up the eggnog...

 

[Lynda-Marie]

Jesse, do you have a link to that story? I haven't spewed on my screen in a while...

Oh, I can't wait! I have the perfect place to mount my motion detector - in my closet!

Wouldn't it suck to be the friend invited to a party and have to leave cause you're the only one that DOESN'T own the movie.

 

[Chris Dugger]

All friends that attend screenings at my place get a copy of the film being shown....

It normally takes me a few days to burn them to hand out...

So, we are safe at this end....

[george kaplan]

I just burn copies of my dvds and give a copy to each person who watches the film with me, that way everyone owns the dvd. So that's got me covered, right?

 

[mylan]

No, that makes you a pirate

 

[Chris Dugger]

Was it the eye patch, parrot or the wooden leg that gave me away?

Dugger

 

[mylan]

No, it was the constant use of the phrase "ARRR" after every sentence.

 

[Chris Dugger]

DAMN !

I will work on that.....

Dugger

 

[Fritz Nilsen]

Joke or not, the MPAA has a serious image-problem and that is a FACT.

And they should get the Dept of Homeland Security to enforce it.

 

[DonRoeber]

My wife and I are about to have a baby. Will the baby be able to watch the movies? I'm worried, and do not want to be accused of piracy.

Maybe this is why, when I used to go to movie nights at a friend, he had a policy of only providing movies that sucked...
