August 2, 2010: Ehh... Moral Dilemmas...
Okay, so as ou all know I saw How To Train Your Dragon in theatres twice back in April, and I absolutely loved it. What you may not know is that I haven't seen it in three months, and the DVD diesn't come out until November 11th. Which just isn't fair.
Anyway, lets just say I've been going through major Dragons withdrawal without this movie, and I doubt I can last another four months.

So, here's the problem: I found a link to the actual movie online, not a fake one that makes you fill out a survey or anything, a REAL DEAL link. I even tested it, and it really is the actual film.
Now, I paid to see it twice in theatres already, and I have every intention of buying it when it comes out to DVD. So really I shouldn't feel bad if I watch it online. But I can't help but feel nasty inside by the thought of watching it illegally, even though I watch a lot of movies illegally on Youtube all of the time.

So what should I do? Should I do what I want to do and watch the movie and suffer through the pointless guilt I'll feel afterwards, or should I wait for the DVD like a good person?
Also, if anyone wants, I'm happy to share the link with anybody else suffering from withdrawal. Gahh, I'm such a moralless pirate... cry

Well, i recently went to see it at the dollar theater. . . well two dollar so you could check to see if its still there

Otherwise i watch movies online all the time . . . but i guess its not really pirated when people upload them from dvds is it? idk

Well the point of pirated movies is to watch them without paying. If you intend to pay for the movie (and really you can't give much more to the industry than that), then I think it's okay.

You're not taking advantage of anyone and you have good intentions.
Then again, if you're going to feel guilty, it might be better to wait.

Hmmm I'm stuck for a solution on this one >.<
