Comment Re:Regal Cinema (Score 1) 1169
Regal Cinemas (I believe all cinemas) have this or a similar policy. When she bought the ticket she agreed to their terms. She was very stupid and should not have recorded the movie.
She was arrested and was humiliated but it was her fault. I would say she will not get such a serious sentence, if even convicted, probably just some community service or something like that...
Regardless what happens to her, the cinema had every right to do this to her, so why boycott them? Try the same thing at another theater chain (maybe AMC or Cinemark) and assuming you get caught (most of the biggies have good ways of detection) the same thing will happen. Instead do not do stupid things that are not allowed (and you agree to by buying a ticket) and can be viewed as illegal (I am not sure what the fair use issues of this type of case if).
