How to Download Movies: the Systematical Way

Okay I know most of you already know how to do this, but i will have some recommendations on how to do it, systematic way meaning, without getting traced and how to efficiently do it, without wasting your time downloading movies and ending up downloading a virus or a fake movie. This guide will change how you download movies online..

1.  First you need to know what to have on your computer.

•  you need a torrent application such as utorrent.  If you don't have then you can download it, just click on the name of the application

•  next you need to have tor browser on your computer and you can download it from here, or you can use any proxy website, for a detailed guide how to access restricted websites, go to my post "how to access internet from work or school" this way nobody can detect that you've been downloading movies.  In the US you can get penalize for downloading a lot of movies. If your located in different country such as The Philippines, you can skip this step.

      2.    Next you need to know where to search for torrents, you can't just go to google and search for the movie you want and add the word torrent, we have to filter the real ones from the fake ones. Ok so I'll give you two of the websites that i found very useful in searching for torrent for movies.

•  www.scrapetorrent.com - it is like google of torrents, it searches your search phrase in almost all of the major torrent sites. The Bad thing about this site is it also includes the bad torrents, so we'll have to filter it more.  When you search for a movie make sure it has a green check mark next to its name, for example you've searched for the movie "The Social Network" there would be a lot of results but to know which ones are true and fake is the challenge, all you need to do is look for the green check mark next to its name, if it has a green check mark chances are this torrent is already verified, but that doesn't stop there, if its verified it does not mean its a good copy it could be a real movie but is a screener only which means its captured using a camera inside the cinema, which probably means a bad copy and a terrible audio sound, the next step to filter it is to click the actual torrent, it will open a new window or a new tab and will go to the actual website, where there are ratings to whether its an excellent copy, good copy or bad ones, from there you could decide if you want to download it or not, I prefer to download movies which has a rating of a10 v10 which means its audio is 10/10 and video is also 10/10. In case there is 3 or more who says its a fake or a6v6, if i were you I'd stay away from it, it will waste your precious time and will disappoint you. Now i will give you list of names of reputable rippers out of there, that will give you 100% good copy, for this site i would recommend to look for FXG, he rips movies including subtitles which you could view in your favorite player, MAXSPEED also is a good ripper, just make sure it has a green check mark next to the file name, aXXo is one of the best rippers out there but he's not ripping new movies anymore but nevertheless, his movies are always 10/10. 
• www.isohunt.com - this website is not included in scrapetorrents searches, but this is one of the most user friendly websites for downloading movies, and that is why its banned in certain countries, that is why i recommend to anonymously browse this website using a proxy website or using tor browser. This website is simple to use. down at the middle right side of the website under stats you will find there the most searched movies and most searched rippers, you will almost always find jaybob on top number 1, jaybob is a ripper who just posts his rips on this website, he is one of the best if not the best ripper out there, he replaced aXXo rips. you can just click his name and you will see all of his rips, and if you want to make sure you can click the ratings and comments on the right part of the torrent name, it will always say its a good rip because it simply is a good rip.

      3. Next thing you need to know how to manage the downloads in utorrent , if you click on options and preference, under preference you will see there queueing, we want to change the number of active torrents to just 1, this means it will just download 1 movie at a time which makes downloading faster, and don't worry about the sharing part, when you download, a portion of the bandwidth is actually uploading the content also. We want the number of active downloads to be 1 also, this means it will prioritize downloading rather than uploading movies, leave everything the same as default.  Under option> preference >directories you can change where the downloads will go if its finished already or if you want to move it as soon as it finish, or change the default location of the files that are downloaded. There is also a feature in utorrent that you could make the computer shut off whenever it finishes the download, so you don't have to check every couple of minutes and worry about the electrical bill. To do this go to option>auto shutdown and select the appropriate action you want to do, I always select "shutdown when downloads complete" this means that if it finishes all the downloads then the computer will shutdown, if you select "shutdown when everything completes" it will complete the downloads and will complete the uploads which would take longer hours, if you have a super fast connection then you don't have to worry about that but if you have 2mbps connection and below, I suggest you follow the guide and just select "shutdown when downloads complete." After all downloads complete you can erase the torrent already, just highlight and hit the delete button, this will erase the torrent and will stop seeding the movies, no more uploads, and you can enjoy the movie already. And like i said earlier don't worry we did our part in sharing the movie, while its downloading it's also uploading so don't feel the guilt of not sharing, we did our part already.
      4. This next thing is not for beginners if your a newbie I suggest you skip this step, this is just one advance step to make the downloads faster than normal, its called port forwarding. The logic behind port forwarding is like this, let's say the bandwidth is water tube pipes, and inside a big water tube pipe there is hundreds of pipes inside, where the water(data) flows everywhere(web), and what we are doing is to have a direct pipeline to the server of utorrent for downloading and uploading movies, get it? so if you click on option and setup guide you will see its divided to two parts bandwidth and network, under network you will see a random number called a port number something like this "19157" this is the pipeline to utorrent and we want our router to open up the pipeline or accept outgoing and incoming data exclusively for utorrent, so no other water will come in except from utorrent. If you click on test it will tell you if its forwarded or not, if its not forwarded, you can manually forward it, but it depends on what router you have if port forwarding is enabled and also the modem if it has a feature for port forwarding so this website will be helpful for you its portforward.com, it has a guide how to do portforwarding to utorrent on a specific router or modem, if you have questions, suggestions, violent reaction regarding port forwarding i will be glad to answer your inquiries, just post your comments below.
      5. This next step is just if you weren't able to play the videos,or if you encounter an error message that says codec is required to play this videos, or something like that. If your computer is running  on windows 7 probably this is not applicable, if computer is xp and some windows vista, you might encounter error message about codec or you may have sound but no video or has video but no sound. problems like this will be solved once you download the codec pack you can download it here filehippo.com, save it and install it and once your done if the computer asks for a reboot then reboot, if not you can try immediately if it works.
      6. The next step probably that you need to do is to purchase an external hardrive because believe me your going to need a lot of space to put your movies in, forget about DVD's and CD's its a digital era now, where everything fits inside your pocket. You can purchase a lot of these in amazon.com or anywhere.
