During weekends I usually stay home and spend my leisure time watching movies. I love to watch those belongs to the "fantasy" genre. Obviously those movies were for kids. Most common example of it are those movies which involve magic. But it has to be played by human not the animated one. Although there are some animated movies that I watched but most of them are those classic fairytales such as Snow White, Cinderella and Thumbelina.
For the 24 long years of watching those movies, it seems that I have run out of those to watch. I already have a compilation of Anne Hathaway's fantasy movie in my laptop and I'm done watching all of it.
Lately, I'm trying to download some movies through mininova.com via utorrent and sometimes via limewire. But downloading would take too much time and I felt so sad about it. The waiting time bores me much.
So, can someone suggests any site where in we can upload movies? The many the options are the greater chances that I would have in uploading movies with better receptions. Kindly advice also regarding leechers and seeders. Thanks and happy mylotting to all!

HI shello,
I also love to watch movie during my free time. Usually I will watch action movies from Hollywood or Hong Kong. If I need more relaxing moment, I will watch animation movies like Ice Age series, Kung Fu panda and Madagascar. And just like you most of the movies I downloaded it from internet.
Usually I used torrentz to look for a movie to download and downloaded it through a any download site available. I use BitComet to download all those movie. I like to use it because we can see the preview once we already download 5 to 10 percent of the movie. I will stop downloading if I did not like the quality of the movie.

Actually, I don't usually download movies. I always just download tv shows. Tv shows are much faster to download than movies. Movies take me a few days to finish downloading. For movies, I just either watch it in the cinema or buy a dvd copy. Then I just stay at home and have a movie marathon with my family while eating popcorn.

Unfortunately, mininova.com has limited its torrents because it lost in a lawsuit sometime last year. Check out piratebay.org for downloading movies. Why do you want to upload? Do you have a vast collection that you want to share? Seeders are the uploaders while leachers are the downloaders. There are sites which reward you with advance copy if you agree to upload. That means that you leave your computer running so that the leachers can download. Where are located? I understand that the US has strict laws about downloading movies that is why a lot of torrent sites chose to locate their servers outside the US. Hope I helped.

I'm in the UAE. Some downloading sites also are being blocked in the country. Yup, maybe I have around 150 movies stored in my hard disk. Some were deleted few months ago. I do want to upload but unfortunately I don't have much time to do that. Anyway, I will try to surf with piratebay, just hope that its not blocked in our end here. Thanks for the info, it surely helps.

i download movies almost everday now :) Usually I left my laptop switch on when I sleep and use internet download manager so the download will not be disconnected. Usually it takes two hours plus to download a movie, and about an hour plus to download an episode for TV series. I download from local servers since I got the fastest speed to download from it or use torrents. Right now, I'm watching Lost from the first season and downloading the fourth season of So You Think You Can Dance from torrents.

That's great. I usually left my laptop switch on too to finish the download and get to watch the movie in the evening when I reach home. But sometimes, I got disappointment with some downloads with bad receptions. However, torrents is really helping me a lot with downloading.
