That time X-Men Origins: Wolverine was stolen

2009 saw the release of what 20th Century Fox were hoping to be a completely new era of X-Men spin-off movies. However disaster struck! First of all that movie was terrible but also a month before it was released an early workprint found its way online threatening to derail the whole franchise right before its new beginnings. Fingers were pointed. People went to jail. And the whole thing ended up as a huge mess resulting in Hollywood studio mandates that are in effect still today. The whole story is told and solved right here you'd best believe it!

My favourite thing about these kinds of Mr. Sunday Movies videos is you're never sure if Mason is going to be in the room with him and the first like ten to twenty seconds are a real nailbiter as you wait with bated breath for Mason to suddenly pipe in with "Oh, is that so?" or something. One of these days they should do one where James is by himself for the whole video and then at the end he says "What do you think about that, Mason?" and Mason just says "What a cool story!" and then it ends.

@peterstangl8295 Год назад

I think it's kinda easy to tell when Mason will be in it, just by James' tone. When he's alone, he has a sort of "youtuber voice", and with Mason it's much more natural.

I'm honestly surprised James showed that much restraint when talking about Murdoch, especially when he has even more influence over Australia than he does the US.

@ThisFinalHandle Год назад

Yeah nah ... I'd argue Australian anti Murdoch sentiment is better tied to his products here. But FOX and all its tentacles in the US dwarf all of Australian media period. For some reason the US left and right let him fly under the radar, instead focusing on the FOX corporation not its figure head.

His mouth was opened after the movie and he would’ve gone on to be the Deadpool people loved and there’s really no arguing that?

@SirSoloSoul Год назад

Just so you know, you're legally allowed to download anything on the internet you just cant upload it. Your internet company was tricking you because you were probably downloading too much and it was costing them or downloading virus's/getting ddossed. Maybe you were slowing their servers if they were a small company. But ye, it isn't illegal so feel free to start again.

@MyRegardsToTheDodo Год назад

@@SirSoloSoul He's talking BS. It wouldn't have been his internet company calling him, because they don't know what you're downloading, as long as they don't monitor your internet activities, which is illegal (otherwise online-banking would be pretty dangerous). And even if they would monitor his internet activities, they wouldn't conatct him. He would get contacted by a law firm for a cease and desist and fees or by the police, if it was a criminal case. To my knowledge, this hasn't happened to anybody who just downloaded copyrighted stuff off the internet so far, the people who got in hot water for this kind of stuff generally used a download client that also turned them into a host for these files, so they also offered uploads for others to download (that's why it is called "filesharing").
