Don't Rip Off Movies

Well, well, well...
The powers that be have snag themselves a spider. One that ripped off "The Revenant" and now ordered to pay over a million bucks for the loss. SO, let me get this straight, you're going to teach a pirate a lesson by making this schmuck pay, when clearly he didn't even have the money to buy the piece of shit movie? Fuck you, Hollywood.

I don't think you should rip a movie ever. But c'mon. The thieving turd is hardly your problem.
The real issue are you assholes who've taken production out of Los Angeles. Why? Because you're ripping off some other poor unsuspecting town.

I'm not entire sure people understand when a movie comes into their town. It's like a carnival. Sure you get a small bit of dough for them to set up stakes. And a few jobs here and there. But once they leave, you haven't really improved your city. Unless you built an infrastructure for it, for the long term (like when Atlanta let Pinewood build a soundstage).  The Mafia is much more respectable when it comes to taking...but then divvying out to the town. At least we know they're crooks.

So it strikes me as funny when crooks say they're being robbed.
But don't rip off movies. Because, the crooks in the ivory tower don't blame themselves...oh no...they take it out on their minions.
