    I’d rather wait for at least a 1080 webrip than to suffer through the cruddy audio and visuals of a cam. Heck, I don’t even like going to the theatre, why would I pretend to do that in 480p with early 2000’s cellphone audio?

    If I want to see a movie so badly, I’d rather go to the cinema rather than watch a low-quality camrip.

    I cannot fathom why anyone would want to subject themselves to such utter horror.

    Reminds me of the good ol’ days in the 90s. Watching cam recordings and people standing up or taking loudly the entire movie.

    Haven’t watched a cam recording in decades. Don’t plan on doing that again.

    I ended up using a cam for a movie from 2009 to check to see if the movie had differences between the theater version and the DVD release. It didn’t but it was neat that I could, 15 years later.

    So I respect it, but also, good god will I never actually watch them for the actual movie itself.

    Back in the early days, watching a cammed movie was tolerable because the 480p rips that we’d otherwise get were so heavily compressed that there’d be hardly any step up in quality. It was also usually the fastest way I could find a new movie.

    These days, releases get leaked from inside the studio all the time, at full quality, so there’s not really any legitimate need for cammed movies anymore.

      I would not say “all the time” at least the movies I watch, but it is mostly only some months (if even) until a movie is available on some streaming service and gets ripped in 4k

    Usually I hate them, but there’s this deadpool vs wolverine cam edited on my private tracker. It has blown me away. I swear if I didnt know it was a cam I wouldn’t have guessed
