I have been wanting to watch this since release but it isn't showing anywhere near me or streaming or available to purchase and ironically I haven't pirated because I figured everyone was in the same situation so good quality rips would be scarce. This movie is a spectacular example of all that is wrong with geographical distribution rights. I will probably still wait for a legit stream on this one because I want to send a positive signal if any service grabs the rights but I can't blame people for making other choices. Copyright is supposed to protect the rights holders so they can profit from their work but in cases like this it just stops them connecting with their audience and they get nothing, neither money or exposure. I don't think piracy is harming anyone in this situation.
there’s still no easy (or legal) way to watch it with English subtitles, and there’s been no updates on when it’ll come to streaming or physical in the US or elsewhere
This looks fantastic! Thanks for the recommendation.
I unfortunately don't have MAX anymore after they dropped Westworld (and all the other crazy shit that happened around a year or so ago) so I may also have to borrow a copy from my friend the internet..
Edit: Looks like my son already put in a Requestarr for it and it's in Sonarr. The *arr stack really has changed the game after I was out of the scene for 10 or so years.
Same, stopped pirating when Netflix became available here. By 2024 I was subscribed to 4 different services, and was still missing out on a lot of cool stuff. So when I got my first Prime video ad I just said fuck them, bought a NUC, set up jellyseerr+Jellyfin+a bunch of *arrs, and canceled all my subscriptions. Now I can watch anything I want, and the experience is so much better than any of the legal services.
It's crazy how they fucked themselves out of revenue streams so completely.
Within 6 months of canceling all our streaming services, I was able to pick up 4x16tb HDD's for a JBOD connected to a NUC for about the same cost (likely less all said).
A lot of us that grew up sailing the seas became stable enough to afford the media we wanted and docked our ships. Now, I'm back on my favorite newsgroups like it was 2001.
There's that quote from GabeN, I won't repost it, but it's true. There's a serious service problem and the greed isn't helping. Now I've got a multi terabyte NAS and backup with a streaming services and a Steam account I'll never make through the backlog of.
All that said, when possible, I still by the stuff I like on physical, but even that is getting harder and harder anymore.
The biggest mistakes these shareholder appeasing cock puppets are making is thinking we don't have a choice anymore. We do and they are greater than they've ever been.
I'm to the point that I won't tolerate your service if you can't give me a better experience than my jellyfin+*arr server. Why pay for 5 subscriptions to show you ads and low quality content when I can do it myself much better and for free?
What country is that? If it's Canada, then it was (maybe still is) available on stack.tv with ads through prime or apple(?). The delivery is atrocious and stack.tv is already pricey as hell, so I don't blame you if you pirate it.
Really good show though. Reminds me a lot of Les Maîtres du temps from the 80s.
