I think that is a great thing todo most people will have never seen any "quality" anime peroid. Getting it illegally, I dont care but dont charge people for it... I get most of my anime like that off of bittorent but I dont give it out under any circumstances even if they offer to pay me... Its just for me, so dont charge for the anime. More people would come to a free public show wouldent that be great... on a side note if you must do something charge for popcorn Wink

Everyone know you're a well known bootlegger buyer. What you bought was a bootleg, not a Region 2 DVD (which has no subtitle).

What the hell? Charging people to see a movie that you purchased has always been illegal. Why do you think they put warning messages at the begginning movies? You're lucky that you actually got away with this crap. That money should be donated to charity.

Ripping off your friends is a good idea?

Right.

he just said it was his friend's idea. i mean it's a good idea if you have the resources. if i had no means of watching it and i could see it in great quality on a big screen, i'd put down a couple bucks.
