Ha ha! He does. He looks like a toad.

I'm waiting for the tongue to come out a la Robin Williams.

I was impressed with the latest stories regarding so called 'weirdo' Keanu Reeves generosity. Not many people give away £50 million of their earnings to their co-workers.

[Prophet Tenebrae]

LOL!

For a second there I thought you were joking and that some fat man had replaced Fishburne.

According to the article, it took two weeks. Knowing the internet, I'm shocked it took that long.

[Dj Balloon]

Any chance of posting the url;)?

[Pussycat]

There are a lot of cam versions going about, tricky to get the real copy of it though.

[Valen_gr]

Seems by looking at the logs that a shitload of people have found it without me even posting it.Curious!
Oh well.
Eviltwin, how come and your comp name is not the usual res-02.xxx

Two weeks after the release? Surely they meant "before"?

The BBC seem to have a vendetta against BitTorrent though. The way they harp on about it, you'd think it was going to end civilisation as we know it.

Um, why?

A high-quality copy of the film

If it's the same version that is available on kazaa then it is in VCD format, ie it's a cam. An alright quality cam with below par sound but quite obviously a cam.

[Rennie]

it's definately a cam job. just like the good copy of american pie 2 that was going round last year.

[Thackary]

From what I understand from the article, the pirated version it was talking about was almost DVD quality, and had 5.1 surround sound.

The version you're talking about was quite obviously filmed from a hand held camera, and the sound is testament to that.

But anyway - a film like that really benefits from a cinema setup - it's just not the same with desktop speakers...

Exactly - Valen_gr does not have the copy the article was talking about and due to the firewall I doubt anyone here does.
