Does anyone really pay to actually see these in the theaters? Last 2 my wife rented from red box, I found them to be really cheesy comedy's that had their funny moments but certainly not worth a $9 movie ticket
How many times it's downloaded is irrelevant it doesn't list a graph to show:,fakes,poor quality or even those that intend to go see it at a theater,that's the thing about stats you can make em up & skew them anyway you want to suit your agenda,just like politicians,i look forward to seeing how well it does at the box office it wasn't a bad movie it could've been better or a little less predictable 3 out of 5 stars from me

How true. The IMDB rating for this movie s***ks big time. With a rare exception of Godfather, I have yet to come across any good sequels.

What vague self-serving BS. Many of those that casually watched this D/L would NOT have bought a ticket or rented it.
Regardless, if they can tell you shared it, then they could calculate virtually exactly how much any individual shared by checking their U/D ratio... effectively what was the equivalent number of times they shared the picture.
But they do NOT want to do this as it could put a real figure on it. They don't really want that do they? That would cut into these punitive precedents by the civil courts.
It's my opinion that they stand to make more money by keeping it vague.
