Good point.

either that's fake (because that's the first and only site I see it on) or it's BRRRRRAND fucking new. I don't see it on any newsgroups, so I'm suspicious
also it's got a really plain filename, they're usually shit like "Wrestler (2008)RiPpPeD By DeMonIOIDDD fGRG CLAN IRC3993490 !~!~!"

what
even knowing zero about the movie, I figure the title alone would let you know it's nothing at all like either of those movies
and honestly if you do really know nothing about the movie you're going to see except the title, that's stupid
I don't like to know anything about the movies I'm seeing generally. If a few people I respect recommend it, or if it's a director I like(such as this instance) I'll go see it.
I even change the channel if a commercial comes on for a movie I intend to see. They give away way too much shit nowadays and my memory is crucial

Wouldn't doubt it. He's had like a decade to get better even though The Fountain blew.

Really can't wait to see this movie. Watching the trailer there's just no way anyone but Rourke could have played this role.

Seeing this anywhere other than a proper theater would be a big mistake.

Pretty fantastic movie.
Rourke is the only person who could have done this.
You'd never think a movie about a washed up wrestler and a washed up stripper could be so damn good.
Oh. And Amy Poehler and her SNL update guy were in the theater.

absolutely loved this. have to agree that no one else could have played this part. it felt very documentary-ish in the way it was shot. i was impressed that Rourke performed all those spots and in how well they looked. very good stuff.

Just finished watching the leaked rip. Great quality. Movie itself was great too. Rourke killed it and tomei's body is still smokin.
And apparent the Benjamin button rip is missing footage.

Thanks but that shit will take 42 hours to download all those links with the waiting period.
I don't fuck with torrent sites anymore so if anyone has a link (Gunn) that is 2 or less files let me know. If not, I'll just wait until it hits theaters down here.
Thanks.
