Tangled (2010)

I started to watch this movie tonight because I found it on a free site.:D
However it has now informed me, "You have watched 72 minutes of video today" and it refuses to let me see the end. So I'm stuck at the part where the two guys try to trick Rapunzel into thinking that Flynn left with the crown. OY! *bangs head against wall*

The lanterns were very pretty. Talk about a light show.:D
"What if it is (everything I dreamed it would be)?"
"I guess that's the good part- you get to find another dream."

"I have magical hair that glows when I sing."
"..... YOU HAVE MAGICAL HAIR THAT GLOWS WHEN YOU SING?"
:p:D
 
I'm against piracy, so I cannot condone what thou hast done. I suggest you find a way to rent it and thus contribute revenue to the creators. I know some people would say "Disney is Billion Dollar industry, so it can't hurt." Well if everyone starts believing that there will be no more films like Tangled. It takes quite a bit of money to make film like this, the masterminds spent a portion of their lives getting it to us and I think they deserve a couple of bucks for their work.

Sincerely,
Sir Godfrey

Agreed. To me it's not fair to filmmakers to watch pirated films, free or not. Plus those sites can send viruses, malware, and trojans into your computer, which can destroy the hard drive.

Very true! to add to Sir Godfrey's comment, Disney is the biggest entertainment company in the world, but it still has to make money. For example is 200 people take Tangled illegally instead of buying a 20$ DVD Disney looses 4,000 dollars. It may not be a big deal for a big Film like Tangled. But for films like Narnia (which needs every cent it can take) or a low budget title (To Save a Life), it can be a death blow. I only have one exceptionable to the rule myself, and that is a film that has not been released. I'm not talking about something that will come to DVD, but rather older films that are either banned (Song of the South) or are too small and obscure, stuck in legal limbo or the studio having no interest in it. I plan on buying Song of the South as soon as Disney drops the race card, but until then I'm going to have to make due with a Foreign dup. I have copies of old cartoons (such as the ever popular Betty Boop), that haven't seen an official release since 1991. Now if the film is available legally, there should be no issue, just go buy it or wait until it goes on sale.

BTW, Walt Disney Animation Studios has gotten a nasty reputation of handing out pink-slips to animators after they loose money, since around 2000. I'm not going to put people out of work, that's just cruel.
 
To Aravis and Soldier of Aslan:

I'm glad there are others that are against piracy. So man of my peers on my college campus see no harm in downloading free songs or taking your disc and copy it. It frustrates my virtue and convictions.

To Aslans Messanger:

That tis so cute! I wish I could watch Tangled 6-7 times with my niece. :)

There are some free songs I don't mind downloading, but they're usually free downloads offered by an artist's site, or in one case, offered by the official Facebook page of the band. In that instance, there's nothing wrong with it because they're giving it to you. And I copy my albums (usually the ones I buy on iTunes) to have a backup copy just in case I lose all my computer information. If I make copies, it's usually only for my parents if they want a soundtrack that I have. I don't distribute my copies freely or widely. ;)
 
ALRIGHT! Since I'm so bad that I watched this movie on an online site I'll just not post here if it makes you feel better. And I might as well delete my post too. Seriously my parents and I watched movies online all the time! How am I supposed to know? You can't condemn me just for watching something.:mad:

*stalks off* Yes I'm overreacting, but really, I didn't know any better so leave me alone! *sigh*

It tis not condemnation to point out folly or a mis-deed. If you were naive you now have been educated that it is stealing. If you knew, this should convict you to not pirate anything anymore. For the FBI will eventually catch you and the fine + the prison time is not what you want. We are looking out for you, not condemning you.

To be perfectly honest? your parents should know better than to watch movies illegally, and allow you to do the same. Nobody is calling you a bad person, just that it sort of falls within the bounds of breaking the law, and that's the truth. Illegally watching movies online IS against the law, just almost nobody is ever prosecuted for it. I know that on YouTube, if you like a movie that's been posted on there, or you favorite it too many times, your account can be deleted.

If you honestly didn't know it was wrong, then fine. It's not your fault. But your parents may want to be more careful about that sort of thing, because nobody wants to go to jail. Just saying. (And sorry, SG; I posted over you and didn't realize it.)

Back to topic.

I plan on sending my Netflix movie back to Netflix by Friday, so hopefully I'll get Tangled by early next week. :D The only downside about Netflix is that you have to wait for new movies to be available.

Aye, it took Inception nearly a week to reach our abode. I hope you enjoy Tangled, it has impacted many of us. :)

It's legal to make a person copy of something because you own and have paid for the product. The problem is when you give away copies to others who should be buying their own. the only thing legal to share is public domain material (such as Bach's symphony 9 in E-flat, and the film D.O.A.). I make an exception for stuff that isn't available, because the company has no way to profit from it. (old obscure films, a tv show that wasn't released/ released in full legally).the problem here is when the stuff becomes available, and those offering a bootleg are still offering it. The creator of Superboy (1990-1996, syndicated) offered season sets until WB released the first season. Aravis should be fine, unless it's Disney material (their lawyers are quite unworldly in their sympathy and understanding).

Then there always is the issue with public domain material. For example something public domain (PD), can be reclaimed if it contains copyrighted material ( It's a Wonderful Life is PD, but the score and short story it's based on are still owned by Republic Pictures), or is restored or redone (for example is I colorize a PD B&W film, I can copyright the colorized version. Same goes for restorations. WB can restore PD Looney Tunes and copyright those).

I said my parents and I watch stuff ONLINE. Just because a movie is online doesn't mean its illegal! ARG!

Some sites let you watch it online without downloading it, I believe. I know I've gone to sites which require so-called "surveys" to watch videos, but nothing's that impotant to me to waste it filling out a "survey" with personal information. :rolleyes: And there is a site called "Mubi", which my film teacher told us to join (not sure if it's legal or not!) which had some films available for free viewing, while others you had to pay for....although I think all the movies were foreign, so the site isn't much use to me. :p

@SG: I know, when Secretariat first came out, I was very impatient for it to be released. And I wish more things were on instant play instead of dvd. Silly Netflix.
