Here's what Hollywood Reporter had to say about it:

"The biggest film in history was downloaded from torrent websites 16.6 million times, according to TorrentFreak. That represents a 33% increase in download activity from last year's top-pirated film, "Star Trek," which was downloaded just under 11 million times.

20th Century Fox, which distributed the sci-fi epic, isn't exactly crying. The film grossed nearly $2.8 billion at the worldwide box office to become the highest-grossing movie ever (before accounting for inflation)."

"Surprisingly, second on the list was "Kick-Ass," with 11.4 million downloads off torrent web sites. The kiddie superhero film underperformed at the worldwide box office with sales of about $96 million.

"Inception" followed with 9.7 million downloads, "Shutter Island" with 9.5 million, and "Iron Man 2" with 8.8 million."

Why the hell would anyone want to download this movie? It's not worth watching in 2D, lol! That's a shame about Kick-Ass though, because the less money a movie like that makes, the less chance we have of seeing a sequel.
