Personally, I love youtube. I think the movies are posted on there are hilarous. If a company has a problem with it, all they have to do is call them about it. The makers keep a good watch of it. In fact, the other day, things from mtv were pulled off of there for copyrighting. I think it is just fine.

I don't think YouTube is causing this at all. If you're referring to the fact that movies are appearing on YouTube in stolen format, then that's their bad for allowing it in the first place. Piracy as a whole in the motion picture world has been around a whole lot longer then the rather infantile YouTube.
Now I'm not denying the fact that I watch "stolen" movies, but typically the versions are of poor quality. Normally I'll watch these specifically if I don't know much about the movie. If it's good, I'll go to the theatre. If it's crap, well I just saved myself twenty bucks. Alternately, if I happen to run across the DVD Screener then it's just happy times for all.
YouTube is not the culprit of the down fall of the MPAA, but I can see where you're coming from. It's no different from any other video site. Myspace for instance is filled with trailers and links to new movies, but I think is quite beneficial to movie companies as it pretty much spams every new movie to a huge audience base.

I'm sure I have no idea what you think you're talking about.
I can't turn on my TV without seeing commercials for Spiderman, Ratatouille, Georgia Rule, etc.
I called the local multiplex and they have movies playing in all their theaters.
There is no lack of "movie company" movies out there...

I resent it. The movies aren't very long, and If people are going somewhere, they may want to catch a movie.

Nah, Most youtube flicks are not about acting and the acting is not really a threat, at all.

They're not.
It's stuff like limewire and filesharing that's doing that.

I think it's just the opposite.
