I want those.
Theater DCPs are notorious for having insane amounts of DRM - you’d need a quantum computer to decrypt it, and even if you could there’s invisible watermarks all over the screen identifying the exact location and time that the movie was playing in, the studio would immediately find out and sue you for everything you have. Not to mention the theater that played it would lose their license and go out of business.
So, for the most part, movie theaters are the only instance where DRM actually won.
But, to my knowledge, there have only been two movies that got their DCPs leaked, and even then, they were old movies released decades ago. One of them is a war movie, and the other one is an animated movie - PM me for details.
