Porn Makers Fight With Pirates Creeps Forward


WASHINGTON (CN) - A federal judge has called for further briefing on jurisdiction by filmmakers who made pornographic parodies of "X-Men" and "The Avengers," as well as a fifth installment of "Massive Asses."

Exquisite Multimedia, SBO Pictures, Patrick Collins Inc. and Axel Braun Productions must prove that the federal court in Washington has jurisdiction over nondistrict residents who pirated their movies.

In four separate decisions, the court identifies these films as "Batman XXX: A Porn Parody," "Massive Asses 5," "XXX Avengers" and "Supergirl XXX An Extreme Comixxx Parody."

If the movie companies can prove jurisdiction, then they can subpoena the IP addresses of numerous John Does behind the allegedly illegal online distribution of their movies over the Internet.

Does anyone confuse the two?

[Old and In the Way]

2. Now this should be a case that should interest Clarance Thomas.

I expect he'll do very diligent research on the subject matter.

3. Well it's their own fault

For not making them XXX rated in the first place.

Seriously, who hasn't wondered what goes on when Batman closes the cave door.

7. If I have not seen Massive Asses 1-4, will I understand the plot for Massive Asses 5? Nt

8. You will but you'll be missing considerable backstory. The plot twist is the same for all of them:

The butler hit it.

It is a good thing for everyone to reign in intellectual property theft in porn because mandating low production costs (which is the practical effect of intenet theft on porn) doesn't help anyone.

It makes porn uglier and meaner. It makes the performers underpaid.

Bad all around.

11. Piracy is a driver of crummy conditions in porn...

Yeah and smoking pot finances terrorism.. and Saddam had WMD's, and we aren't sending drones into Syria.

100 billion dollars a year in the porn industry. I'm sure piracy is driving them all to make crappy movies under cheap conditions

Get a grip.
