Now the MPAA is going after people taping movies in theatres with CELL PHONES?!

With the supposed installation of automatic detection equipment in theatres that will detect a camera in use, I think someone needs to come out with a line of baseball caps and lapel jewelry that consists of a CCD chip behind glass.

Who would be interested in a cell phone video of The Simpsons? The quality is so crappy as to be totally unwatchable. Hollywood just can't get it through their heads that the quality pirated copies are coming from leaked screeners and from loose security in DVD pressing plants. There are lots of places in the chain for copies to leak, instead they're wasting time and law enforcement resources on a girl who taped 20 seconds of Transformers to show her little brother.

*sigh* SPACE ALIENS, TAKE US NOW!

Oy. I think that they have better things to do with their time and money. Like, perhaps, make a movie that people would actually want to see in theaters?
