Normally I don't have much time to watch movies, and for the occasional one Netflix is good enough. But once a coupple of years there is a specific one I want to see which is not on Netflix.

Normally I can find it on ThePirateBay, but sometimes it's offline.

So my question is, how to get a movie like "Sing 2" in a easy way like I used on TPB now in 2023.

  • I love yts because of the small sizes. I don't care about remuxes like the data hoarders in this community.

Fair enough if you have no standards but don't pretend it's a choice between YTS and remuxes with nothing in-between. There is a very noticeable increase in quality just going from YTS to anything slightly larger.

Oh, no. I'm not ignoring the other options, just wanted to make a clear example, as bad as it was haha. I just like small sizes since quality isn't the highest priority of mine, just like how I love FLACs and cannot deal with 320mp3.

can you recommend some of the websites that have those slightly larger versions? I would prefer if they are well organised like yts (multiple qualities/versions on the same page, cover pictures, ratings, good search...)

1337x and TorrentGalaxy are generally pretty decent. Compare bitrates for audio and video and take note of the names of the release group. You'll start to develop a mental list of names to look for. In terms of films, I'd recommend looking for Tigole releases on 1337x as a starting point.
