We don’t have it but you can rent it from us for a ‘small’ fee on top of our subscription price

There are some movies that just don’t exist on streaming. I’ve torrented movies, then looked them up to see what service they’re streaming on, and you just can’t watch them, not even an option to pay for it.

But we won’t serve it to you in the full resolution unless you use our approved devices.

Jessvj93,

Oh is that an approved device? Well the resolutions have their own pricing, 4k’s gonna cost ya!

RememberTheApollo_, to memes in do you guys have this movie?

Truth.

Or rent or buy for some rather large sum. No thanks.

Th3D3k0y,

You don’t want to rent a 38 year old movie for 9.99? But it takes so much effort for them to lend it to you!

RememberTheApollo_,

Right? FFS just make old movies $1.99 or something.

kattenluik,

For some movies it’s literally cheaper to buy a physical copy online and get it shipped to you, than buying a short license on a random platform.

Or in the bargain bin at places like BestBuy.

Torrents are becoming an internet archive of sorts, so long as the sharing/seeders of the old files don’t go offline or delete the files.

You can always buy the golden remastered cinematic ultimate edition that’s part of this collector edition of 12 movies for 355 dollars. It’s a great deal, really.

Th3D3k0y,

Digital Collectors Edition, comes with a digital movie, digital pictures, and a digital directors blog. None of which you actually own, so it can be removed from your collection that you collected as a collector…

TheMongoose,

“Rent for £3.99”

But I already pay for Amazon Prime, wtf? Greedy bastards…

There should be another panel which shows services asking for the person to jump through various hoops to be denied because they dint like his eyes.

Asafum,

And an alternate comic where the responses are “not this week, it’s them over there this week. We’ll get that movie next week, but if you want to watch it 2 weeks from now you have to go to that 3rd guy over there.”

It’s so absurd what this has become.

Is Henry Kissinger crashing servers?

After he crashed crushed over one million humans.

I can’t be the only one disappointed by the lack of an order by clause after being told the list was being sorted (twice!)…

I can still recall binge watching a show on Netflix only to find out mid-way they only had about half of the total seasons. So I paid for a service only to have to finish the show by torrenting it. Idiotic.

Reading this thread is making me really glad that my main media consumption strategy is to trawl second-hand shops for DVDs and Blu-Rays.

Just the last panel though

phoenixz, to memes in do you guys have this movie?

In all honesty, after years of trying I gave up and just went the route…

MrGerrit, to memes in do you guys have this movie?

You could also make one for vpn.

Guy comes back with a obvious disguise and vpn on the back of his coat, asking the same streaming service: “I’m totally from another country, do you have this movie?”

“Yes we do! Enjoy your movie!”
