Only someone who is incredibly naive or gullible would try to download a new film, from a P2P network, that is just getting its world premier.

Of course the file is fake, you’re just lucky you didn’t download a virus or worm embedded in your fake file.

I dunno, it's not totally out of the box, Fantastic 4 has been out on bootleg in Atlanta for at least a month now, it's very possible someone could upload a copy (probably crappy) to the site. But as a rule, I would leave the current releases alone.
