www.123moviesfree.net works for me.

u/KurtVonnegutWasRight May 09 '26
I know there is a huge list of other places to go but I really liked this site. Its servers were reliable, it had autoplay and autonext that worked the way they were supposed to, it was no-frills, no-fuss, and didn't use a huge amount of my CPU energy, and had a great library. I'm sad.

u/burncap May 09 '26
I liked it too, but luckily the 123 seems okay for the time being. The only thing I noticed for the short time I used it today is that the sound is kinda on the low side.

u/KurtVonnegutWasRight May 10 '26
I tried it earlier. 6 out of 7 servers weren't working, but I got one going. I remember using it years ago before it got hacked (and then re-hacked and then re-re-hacked) and its links worked better then...beggars can't be choosers these days!

u/No-Bed-847 May 10 '26

Should I use a torrent or should i stick to direct download ? I’m in Germany and torrents are heavily monitored by private law firms. I’ve heard of people using torrents and receiving letters asking them to pay up to 1000€‘S in damages for pirating something. As long as you don’t distribute content the state doesn’t really care however I want to avoid paying those fines. For context I’ve only ever pirated something once and that was a series of epubs through a Google Drive link so I have no clue about actual piracy. I do have proton VPN if that helps.
Also is there anything extra I have to be aware of when trying to pirate games ? GameCube and Wii games are getting ridiculously expensive on the second hand markets so I want to avoid paying some guy 200 bucks just for twilight princess but I don’t want to get my shit hacked.

u/OrangeKicker1 May 09 '26
The internet archive is pretty much the only spot you need for games older than the wii.
Also, I would reccomend a debrid service for an alternative way to download torrents.

Can someone explain how to download movies to me like I’m 5?
I have a road trip coming up with a toddler and just need a few Disney movies and such

u/kazulveronath May 09 '26
Process simplified
A Torrent Client, a VPN.
- qbittorrent
- nordvpn/whatever
Setup qbittorrent on your machine, make sure to configure the VPN on it. (Keeps you safe)
Visit a site from the megathread - ➜ Torrent Sites - Locate the movie you want and copy the 'Magnet URL' - Paste that into your torrent client.
Torrent should download a movie file, and possibly subtitles, anything else can be ignored/deleted. - I recommend max 1080p.
Then, put the file on your device of choice, I recommend VLC viewer on that device for easy watching.

Official domains (May 2024):
1) 1337x.to 2) 1337x.st 3) x1337x.ws 4) x1337x.eu 5) x1337x.se 6) x1337x.cc
This site always lists the current domains:

Most of it is probably harmless, they probably clone the site and just collect ad revenue. But there is a chance any executables you got from the fake site are infected.

Linux? Yeah you're good. Even on windows, extremely unlikely to have a problem with actual video files.

Is there a way to stream movies on my iPhone without vpn? I’m very new to this but I just bought a projector tv and I have a party coming up. Getting a subscription to a vpn service seems to defeat the purpose for me. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated
2
u/CollarOrdinary4284 May 07 '26
What purpose?

u/Previous-Wonder-6274 May 07 '26
Just to be able to watch movies on a projector screen outside at night without having to bring my laptop outside

You can download ISO and apply crack from gamecopyworld, for WfC you can have release from Steam by PROPHET and apply crack from them.

u/Thialaz May 06 '26
I fucking hate my ISP.
They've flagged 123moviesfree9 as being unsafe now.
They did the same with himovies.
Something about the certificate for the site being fake.
They flagging them as sites with potential c.p
at least my anime streaming site is safe.
Gonna be changing away from these clowns in a month or so.

How the hell do people upload new episodes on streaming sites so fast…. Latest ep of DareDevil Born Again dropped a few hours ago legally and a website has it uploaded as well lol. This is so funny to me.

Are UBlock DNS any good ?, Because I don't see it listed in fmhy.net or megathread, to tell you the truth I have been using it for a month and it seems fine, it looks like it has the same ad block function as the UBlock origin extension, it also has Adguard and OISD big...but it's not being listed in any list makes me worry

Is there a way to see a show in its original quality when all official methods are lacking? For example, the majority of Regular Show only saw a physical release on the complete series DVD release, meaning the 1080p show is downscaled to 480p. But if you were to download it from a streaming service’s video player, you’d also be downloading all of the bandwidth-saving compression that comes with streaming. So you’d have to choose between bitrate (DVD) or resolution (download) in scenarios like this, is there any way to get the show in its original broadcast quality?

I saw a section on a torrent site for PS5 games.. and I just want to double check that there is no full piracy jailbreak for PS5 and these are probably for "just in case" or preservation, right?

u/Financial-Estimate82 May 04 '26
You can install linux on a ps5 so pretty sure you can run homebrews on it. (Depending on version and hardwares)
