BitTorrent's Top 10 Movies Pirated Last Week

Ever wonder what movies people are illegally downloading?

TorrentFreak has released a list of the top 10 most downloaded movies over BitTorrent last week.

Top of the list is Sherlock Holmes, followed by the DVD screener of Daybreakers and the Men Who Stare At Goats in third. Nice to see that Couples Retreat has fallen down to number seven (from fourth place last week). The general news team consensus is that it's pretty awful.

Check out the full list below! Also, let us know which ones you've seen and if we should avoid them; I don't want to have another Couple's Retreat experience again anytime soon. Paying ten bucks to see bad movies just plain hurts.

    Pirates suck. I hate having to pay more for everything because you punks think it's ok to steal. That's right, steal.

    I put you all on the same level as the guy who walks in Walmart, cracks open a DVD case and walks out the front door.

    Don't give me the whole "If they made good movies for a good price we wouldn't steal". You'd steal crap if it was 25 cents, because you're criminals.

    It's wrong, it's illegal, it's imoral and it costs the true consumers more money.

    Don't be a pirate. Use Redbox, Netflix or hit up the dollar theater.

    The biggest crooks of all are the MPAA and RIAA.

    Pirate the movie, if you like it, buy the DVD. Plain simple, that's what I do with videogames! Which is good, because I will never make the mistake of paying to play "Iron Man", but I did buy both Bioshocks :P

    I fully support efforts of Hulu and youtube video services, hopefully they will bring more media to them and if they start charging for Hulu or if Youtube starts charging for premium tv stations or movies then i will be paying! but until then.... thank you bit torrent! Thank you al gore for inventing the internet...HA

    Trying to watch a poorly made TS hurts even more...

    Think about Avatar, People would pay money to see the movies if they are good, but in most cases, those STUPID MOVIES just rob us. They charged us stealing, can we charge them robbing?
