Well Personally... if I want to see a movie.. I will see it.. if I know anything about it or not.. <BR> <BR>IF they had a problem with people knowing too much WHY do they bring out the books BEFORE the movie is released??? <BR> Star Wars Ep 2 Book has been out for atleast a MONTH now.. and anyone who can find a Walmart can find it <BR> <BR> <BR>I have found that I got a few "net" copies of a movie.. then I went and bought it... <BR>Movie theaters are WAY too expencive here so I will get a net copy then decide if I want to buy it. <BR> <BR>As for Bootlegging.. <BR> I know there are several shows I want to watch on TV that are NOT available in Canada.. hence the Internet is the ONLY way I can get to see them..

I think the more a movie is talked about or promoted, the more people will go see it. Spoil some, but don't spoil all. I feel thats your best marketing strategy. <BR> <BR>I'm not going to watch anything off the net, and am not buying any bootleg. All one is doing is hurting the ones that created it.

Well some movies, especially effects films, it won't matter if everyone knows everything or not. I mean most will go see Star Wars Episode 2 regardless if they know what is going to happen or not, but movies like the Sixth Sense, I feel that spoilers would ruin the fun of the movie, and especially the surprise.
