Pirated DVDs

One of the great things about pirated DVDs is the surprises you get when you put one in. Will it work? Will there be static in the middle? Will it play in English? Will the Oscar announcement "This movie is intented for Academy use only. Any unauthorized use of this movie is prohibited." roll periodically throughout the movie.

Then there are some of the quirkier issues. Will the subtitles be for the same movie? Will the video match the cover of the DVD (same movie)? Will the back of the DVD case have a summary of my movie or of something altogether different. Will it have a negative review of the movie instead of a summary?
