Have you all hear this? After all that nonsense of armored cars delivering prints and security guards standing watch & affidavits being required with the names of the projectionists and the oath taken that only the General Manager will be allowed to see the test run of the print and that SW will NEVER be released to Drive-ins and demanding that people be thrown to the floor and searched for camcorders when they enter the theatres....after all that hoopla -- all starting with the erronious and prejudicial presumption that pirated bootlegs originate in those evil, wicked theatres, with projectionists and theatre owners somehow seen as the prime suspects, not to mention all those nasty patrons who have plunked down their $10 bills and PAID to see the film yet their cast as pirates -- after all that, come to find out that according to CBS News, as of this morning, EP 3 is already out on the Internet. Yeth, yeth it is! And mind you, not some low quality, filmed-off-a-movie-screen-with-a-$100-camcorder, copy; THIS ladies and gents was BROADCAST QUALITY (whatever that means to a CBS reporter). The hi rez coupled with the incredible demand, made the download a 20 hour ordeal so it was reported.
So sorry George....sorry Fox....sorry MPAA. These really serious pirated videos, the ones that can really hurt, are, as we have said all along, NOT coming from exhibition but from somewhere probably right in the bowls of Industrial Light and Merchandising.....er, sorry....Magic, although they are probably one and the same to Mr. Lucas. See....THAT's what he gets for bad-mouthing theatres and especially Drive-Ins, as he has gone out of his way to do with each of these last three installmenst, only to let them run it after his press coverage of how aweful DIs are for his masterpieces has died down.
Even the Dark Side will punish him for being so nasty to Drive-Ins!
