Jedi mind trick

The MPA (movie piracy police) have long claimed that every pirated copy of a movie is one less theater ticket or DVD sold. The recent leak of a near perfect copy of the Wolverine movie weeks before it was to hit the theater had them bellyaching about how badly this was going to effect the movie's gross. Well the movie had an astonishingly good release weekend (especially cosidering that it's not that good) most critics are pointing at the MPA and laughing their asses off.

But the MPA has other "Piracy is Bad" theories to put into practice, even if they are just copying the newest trend in anti-drug rhetoric. Now Piracy helps support terrorism!

Is it not ironic that an industry that makes good money on movies about terrorism and blowing shit up would be against terrorism in general?
