Film 101: Future Shock (Another BR Documentary?)

There is currently another .TORRENT, which can be found on PirateBay, that is titled, "Film 101: Future Shock." It looks like a 30-minute mini-documentary on Blade Runner. I haven't had a chance to watch it yet, but it looks very different than "On the Edge of Blade Runner." Sorry, but I guess I didn't know about this one. Did you guys? Also, you should hurry up and go grab yourself a copy if you don't already have one...

Can you provide us a link or URL? I did not know any "PirateBay" and googling for it I've found "piratebay.org", "piratebay.com", "thepiratebay.org", etc., and no one seems to offer a title like that one... :-(

Thanx,
WEKurtz.

I finished downloading (about 263 mb) and watched the piece. Very nice! It is a half-hour program produced by Ontario Television and interviews many of the principals involved in the original film along with some science fiction and film experts. Sean Young, William Sanderson, Syd Mead, Edward James Almos, Emmett Walsh, and Joanna Cassidy are some of the featured interviews. A slightly different take than the 'Edge of Blade Runner' piece and definitely worth checking out.

wow. thanks.

ive got a buttorrent question. my download has been done for about 10 hours now, but im affraid to watch it. if im seeding it, is it safe to watch it or use the program you're seeding? im worried because things like transfering a video over a home network, you cannot watch it while its being transfered. is this the same way?

Depends on your client probably, whether it keeps the file locked. Just try making a copy of it, and let the original stay put. Or, you can always stop the seed (pause it), then close the BT app. Then later you can open your BT client and re-start the seed. Make sure you are using a good client like Azureus, not the standard generic client (that sucks).
