So much for that whole #DontSpoilTheEndgame campaign. We’re roughly a day away from fans finally getting to seeAvengers: Endgamehere in the U.S. and excitement levels are nearing critical mass. But there is also additional nervousness running rampant as many people have already seen the movie and spoilers, inevitably, are starting to make their way online. Even beyond a few spoilers, we now have word that several versions of the full movie have made their way to piracy websites.
To be clear: we’re not here to spoil anything. This post, itself, is completely spoiler free. According to a new report, a full copy ofAvengers: Endgamehit piracy websites in China just hours after the movie premiered in the country.Chinese audienceswere treated to the movie two days before its scheduled release domestically. Just hours later, the copy began circulating on English piracy sites as well. That initial copy was reportedly of very poor quality, with a bad angle image flickers throughout the running time. There were also watermarks placed throughout for a gambling website.
There have been plenty of big movies in the past that people don’t want to have spoiled for them. But whatDisneyand Marvel have done with the Marvel Cinematic Universe up to this point is completely unprecedented.Avengers: Endgameis set to conclude a 22-movie arc that has taken 11 years to accomplish. Couple that with what happened at the end ofInfinity War, which was easily one of the biggest cliffhangers in cinema history, and it’s understandable that people are feeling particularly sensitive about spoilers. That’s not to say it’s difficult to avoid pirating a full movie. It’s quite easy. Just don’t do it.
Butwhat these leaks meanis that every secret this movie has in store is floating around online. And if there are people who are willing to upload these pirated copies online, there are certainly people who won’t have any compunction when it comes to spoiling certain elements for unsuspecting individuals. So fans should be extra careful whilst randomly perusing websites like Twitter and Reddit until they actually get the chance to seeAvengers: Endgame, which begins holding preview screenings on Thursday, for themselves. This news was previously reported byTorrentFreak.
