tl;dr needs to have nigs
better have black and trans nazis
if you want to win
either cast blacks, or give gimmie dats
asian counts
so basically big studios can just create fake positions
to continue buying oscars
they can win the annual at-sea pirate movie award show
but only if enough people on the production team have a background in some form of sailing
i never hear about the live action disney movies until after they're released and everyone gets to cash in on them
the lion king in particular came out of nowhere
yes but same category
you can't get a good feel for DL numbers day 1
but the number of peers makes it seem like it was huge
i wonder how many of those are actual individuals though
not sure what you mean by that
DL numbers are tracked pretty reliably by tracking the number of nodes in a swarm that fully leech the file
i see
i was under the impression it was more nebulous which ones are distinc
i'm more of a physical, at sea pirate
I mean, it's fair to say that it's not an exact number, that's true
but I'd say you've got a pretty solid confidence interval for what the actual number is
hm now that i think about it
i might need to put a pirate flag on my computer somewhere
no i mean physically attached
the pirate's code is finnicky about not announcing piracy via flags in at least some point in the process
yeah that would be a good idea
One of the Copper fags is citing 1.3M unique downloads for Mulan so far, across everything they index
so there's the best number you'll get right now
doesn't take private trackers, Usenet, or XDCC into account of course
but those will be <100k so who cares
that's a lot of people interested in watching something that was destined to be worthless
People are starved for new movies, nothing's come out this year
but paying $7.99/month and then another$30
maybe not, lol
at that size I guess movies are more like attraction shows than anything else
I think movies tend to do a better job at being "entertainment" than TV or Netflix shows do
too much of what gets pumped out nowadays is needlessly long or underedited
and while a lot of people like that, it makes moves feel different
movies are really good at telling stories meant for movies
personally I think the length is a bit lacking though
You can tell most stories in 1-2 hours
though that's a bit unfair, TV series aren't always trying to tell a story per-say
there's a lot of different types of stories
some are about events, some are sort of windows into a setting or life, and some are continous series that follow a cast or setting
movies can pack an optimal and curated amount of detail and polish to show the most important bits of a story
The Dutch have a word for that, which doesn't have an english equivalent
but some stories need both length and detail
to reach their full experience
I don't think I have the proper words to draw the distinction I want to draw
I don't think story and narrative are the correct words
story is a pretty broad word
a multi-season television show, with dozens-hundreds of hours of film
isn't a single story
I'm not tryng to say "arc", nor am I trying to say you can cut it up and have portions stand on their own
I think I see what you're saying though
that longer works are made up of multiple distinct stories that
