piracy is a crime. if jesus finds out he’ll kill you.
not if i kill him first
They already tried that, didn’t work
They staked his hands and feet, not his heart. Now that we understand vampirism and liches better, it’s time to try again.
You dont stab a lich in the heart you have to destroy their phylactery which ties their soul to the material plane. And Jesus has had 2000 years to fill the earth with millions of fake phylacteries disguised as Christian artifacts so good luck finding the real holy grail.
Thanks, I knew liches were a different process but couldn’t remember what it was!
I believe in us. I take this “attack and dethrone god” shit seriously, and I think we can figure this out.
I think the best policy is to nuke the Vatican and then go from there.
Sounds like a job for a Cultural Revolution and a Four Olds Campaign
Skill issue
Piracy is what Jesus would do. You wouldn’t just copy bread and fish for everybody?
Start with the internet, if that doesn’t work try your local movie theater.

I also use 1337x.to, but for anything obscure my next stop is rutracker.org
I will second torrentgalaxy and 1337x, I can find most stuff on there. rutracker if it’s really obscure
some general notes about torrenting movies:
-
avoid anything that says CAM or HDCAM or TS or HDTS. look for BluRay or WEBRip instead. if the movie has not been released on Bluray or digital then you should practice patience and wait instead of watching a cam
-
file size will often reflect quality. usually ~2gb is passable quality for a 2 hour movie in 1080p. for really good quality without compression artifacts then something like 6-8gb will be much better at preserving details and film grain
-
4K (2160p) rips are usually HDR so they won’t look right unless your device supports HDR. you probably don’t need 4K but if you have the storage space and fast internet and want super high resolution that’s an option
notes on quality of different release groups I know of:
-
YTS / Yify are pretty mid quality IMO, probably fine for some stuff but I generally avoid unless that’s all I can find
-
RARBG releases had decent quality/filesize tradeoff, not perfect but good for most things (that site is now defunct so you won’t see them release new movies but you can find a lot of their old torrents on torrentgalaxy)
-
GalaxyRG - I think their 1400MB rips are dumb but the 10-bit GalaxyRG265 rips seem pretty decent, comparable to RARGB or slightly better
-
QxR releases very high quality encodes, the file sizes will also be larger but it’s worth it for movies where you really care about visuals. their torrents often include commentary tracks and sometimes even special features (which you don’t have to download) which is awesome
-
HeVK (uploader on 1337x) releases a lot of really high quality encodes of horror movies in particular, if you’re into that sort of thing. also usually includes commentary tracks
-
alldebrid.net, you can paste magnets from 1337x.to for instant cached download
I get most of my torrents from https://yts.mx/ or 1337x.to
If it’s older/more obscure Yify sometimes has fuck all for seeds though.
I thought YTS was defunct and any domains around right now are just shady copies. Nothing’s ever come up for you on a virus scan?
1337x is good though. I’ve also used EZTV for some more obscure things and it’s been fine.
Yeah I’m aware they’re all copies of the old site but I don’t think I’ve ever had a virus alert for a movie tbh, only ever seem to get popups for games.
Oh nice, well that’s good to know.
Get a private tracker
Private trackers are good but I have found it hard to maintain ratios without a seedbox. As a poverty stricken guy it sucks because private trackers are good shit.
The issue with private trackers is that you end up downloading stuff only to seed it because its like some bonus point torrent. The other trick I would use was to grab the torrent hash and see if it was on DHT without the private tracker which sometimes happens. You can then add the private tracker back to it and remove the public DHT trackers and reap the benefits of pure upload. Sadly both of these require you to play the system a bit and who the fuck has time for that?
EDIT: In other words there is a warm up period for torrent accounts on private trackers that can sometimes last around a month or two depending on if you get onto a site with a generous bonus point system you can learn to use. If you mess up this break-in period your account will always be in shit status and you might as well delete it and start over.
Do you mind spending $10 a month on a seedbox? Because if you do there is a torrent search engine that I use that hooks into a seedbox and it pulls from a shit ton of public trackers. It looks like this:
You hit the send to put.io button and boom its on the put.io site and you can just watch it then delete it.
usenet
Use a vpn for public trackers. Require encryption for private trackers.

if you want, instead of torrenting, check out stremio with torrent addons. it allows you to just stream movies in a netflix looking interface without actually downloading anything onto your computer
you get the addons here https://stremio-addons.netlify.app/
and download it here https://www.stremio.com/downloads
i feel like it’s self explanatory but feel free to ask questions or look up a reddit tutorial or something, there’s lots of them
I’ve been a fan of torrentleech.org for the last few years. They open for invites a lot.
