That's honestly one of the biggest wtf things to me. Movies like that are old as fuck. How many people are still buying the DVD? Or paying to rent it? Not talking down on the movie itself. There's a reason it's still talked about. But honestly, it's not making much, if anything.
Why not have it throw up on a streaming service? At that point, if I had the rights, and Netflix said they would pay me like $200 a week, I would probably still do it. That's probably $200 more than what it's currently making a week. Netflix gets to have it for cheap. And then the people who want to watch it get to.
But yet its a problem for us to pirate it?
