Answer 1

There are plenty of places to get them, but no where to get copies equal to the original. Please sir, allow me a moment to try and convince you to discontinue your use of bootleg DVD's. While yes, Hollywood is full of greed and people like Tom Cruise making 100 million a picture, the people who are hurting are the theatre employees and the hard working bottom feeders. I would like for you to read an article that I wrote a few months ago.

For my first real posting I would like to concentrate on an industry that we are all familiar with, but most know very little about. This industry is the media, specifically the movie industry. For the last few decade profits have soared for movie production companies, while profits have plummeted for movie theatre chains. And people wonder how they can charge $6 for a bag of popcorn. I bet you didn't know that the majority of theatre chains get their profit from their concession stand sales. Most theatre chains only receive a meager 5% off of opening movie box office sales. That is hardly enough to pay for things like payroll and overhead like airconditioning and the massive amounts of power required to light a 6,000 watt bulb for 13 hours a day. So why is this shift in power now in existence? There are several theories.

1. Movies just aren't as good anymore. Decades ago you could go and buy a ticket and see a quality film like Casablanca, where as now you can go and pay ten times as much and see films like Chicken Little or Hostel. I don't mean to knock on these films creators, but you have to admit that the quality of films has dropped drastically since the last few decades. It is highly debatable as to when this sudden change occurred, but it is obvious that it actually happened.

2. The economic factors in play are tremendous. Let's look at the payroll of some of Hollywood's current actors. Tom Cruise gets paid millions of dollars per picture just do, what I feel is, a terrible job acting in it. Why do these film companies pay him so much? Because they feel that he can seel tickets. So, where do they get the extra funds to pay his unjustly increased salary? They raise the percent of money taken from ticket sales. About 10 years ago, the amount of money taken form a single ticket was about 85% depending on the movie studio, but when they raised it 5% to a total of 90% nearly half of the movie theatres in the world went bankrupt. This is outrageous. You are probably asking yourself where I get my figures right about now, well I have been involved with the theatre industry for nearly 10 years now and I have seen these changes first hand.

If you all look for yourselves I am sure you can find dozens of news articles stating that the movie production industry is vastly losing and they blame it on the ticket sales. They are claiming that fewer people are going to the movies and that they make greater profit off of DVD's. Does anyone know how much it costs to make a DVD total? It somewhere around $1.25. And then they jack up the prices to about $21 . However, if you look at the numbers of tickets sold, it is actually less. So, I can't argue with them there. But they are not losing money off of ticket sales beacuse they are simply taking a greater portion of the ticket sales. There are even some production companies that are claiming they will raise the percentage to more than 100% in the coming year. Now, the popcorn and soda sold at the concession stand will have to get a price raise in order to pay the theatre expenses. This will inevitably cause more and more patrons to decide to purchase home theatres and wait for the DVD's to come out. So now we have quite a pickle, so to speak. Now, due to Hollywood's downright greed, thousands of employees will be put out of work simply because of these blockbuuster, big budget films needing to be payed for, and that leads to the next point.

3. The block buster. Why is it that every time I turn on the TV I see an ad for this years greatest blockbuster movie? I have racked my brain for the answer to this one, and I feel that I have come up with a decent response to the question. I feel that the blame rests squarely on the shoulders of George Lucas himself. Try to think of a big budget blockbuster that was released prior to Star Wars. I can't really think of any. I know there are movies that made loads of cash, but I can't think of any that had the huge budgets that are given away today. So, it is probable to say that Star Wars was the first blockbuster, and set a presedent that is in place even today. Everyone knows that to make a lot of money on a single film, you need to have a lot of movie goers come and see that film. The problem that arises now is that they forward too much cash to too many movies. How are we supposed know which ones are actually good? They hand off way to much cash to movies with poorly written scripts and directors who couldn't find their way out of a wet paper sack much less on a high tech set. Lets also mention the massive amount of special effects in use thanks to good old George Lucas. He created some of the most advanced special effects in use today and now it seems almost like directors concentrate more on effects than they do on dialogue or plot. It is so sad when you see a movie that has a very good script, but is riddled with poorly directed concepts.

So thank you George, for starting a never ending cycle that can only end in two ways. One, Hollywood comes to its senses and stops paying people so much money for terrible work, causing a Rennaisance in the movie industry, or two, the cycle continues causing the collapse of the movie theatre industry all together. I know that seems like it is bleak and from a galaxy far far away, but it is far more possible than you could imagine.

Answer 2

Bootleg plus quality equals nonexistent

Answer 3

Contact the seller, explain that you believe you have a counterfeit item, and ask if you can return it for a refund. The seller may have been unaware that it wasn't genuine. If that fails you could, I suppose, report the seller to ebay for selling counterfeit goods. You may have to write this one off to experience.
