   Mirimax is pure evil (a subsidiary of Disney.... so you KNOW they're pure   
   evil). Recently they threatened the webmaster of KFC Cinema with a lawsuit   
   because he had links to HKFlix and other online retailers who were selling   
   the uncut, original, LEGAL, Region 3 DVDs of a variety of kung fu films that   
   Mirimax owns the American rights to. This resulted in a huge petition that's   
   still online (when I signed it I was number 12,175!!! and the list was still   
   growing!), telling Mirimax not to cut and re-edit and overdub all of the   
   martial arts films they acquire, that its a crime to warp the hard work of   
   filmmakers, and that they can't bully people around like that! Count   
   Biollante as a casualty of war if Mirimax has it and plans on releasing it.
