Video pirates disappointed in weak 'Speed Racer' sales

Speedracer_2A disappointing weekend for video pirates across the nation as they're reporting weak sales in bootleg copies of "Speed Racer." 

"I had 10 copies of 'Speed Racer' laid out on the sidewalk in Downtown L.A. and I only sold 1 copy for $5," says video pirate Kevin T.  "It was a really bad weekend. The only saving grace was that I put the movie on rewritable DVDs."

Video pirates say they're upset at Warner Bros. for putting out such a poor film that they illegally obtained and copied.  The Video Bootleggers Association of America say they haven't taken a hit like this since the last eight Eddie Murphy movies.
