77 movies are above 50GB…

11 files less than 1GB…
Are you only downloading 720p? How the hell are you ending up finding movies that are less than 1GB and are still quality enough to actually watch?
720p < 1GB, 1080 < 2GB. The biggest film I have is 4k HDR at 8GB.
Still, between ~17 minutes and 35 minutes of download time are completely alright for me. I have loads of time and only watch stuff about 1-2 times a week.
I’m sorry, but I’m with the person above you… 4K movies should be 20GB+ if you’re getting true HDR, appropriate bitrates, and high quality audio. My copy of the Hobbit movies are as high as 75 GB each (extended version but still).
I understand that, my point was that at 1080p and less than 1GB of storage… that bitrate must be trash and virtually unwatchable.
Edit: To my point… A lot of my anime episodes are like 300-900MB… but those are ~25 minutes… To find a 90+ minute movie at 1GB… that’s an estimated 2/3 of the quality of an anime image which is usually easier to compress. I just can’t see a normal movie being 1GB and not looking like480p that was poorly upscaled to 1080p… like a camrip.

Search for something, sort by number of seeders, download the top file around the size you want.
Also remembering uploaded names helps (yify comes to mind)
