Most movies I just watch a bit out of the corner of my eye and then I know the story because the stories are all the same. Fast forward to the bit where something blows up, OK seen that one, send it back.Why do people feel the need to collect this stuff ?Internet Bandwidth is the gift given to our generation, don't throw that gift away by useless downloads.
