Dallas Buyers Club is in the lawsuit news again, for losing a lawsuit requesting the identities of reddit users.

Has that movie even made a profit? How the fuck are they making enough money to keep the lawyers happy?

Dallas Buyers Club LLC is not the sole plaintiff. As per the article it’s a group of production companies bringing piracy lawsuit. ( a pretty weak one by the looks of it) The Reddit piece looks to be really inconsequential and superfluous in regards to the bigger picture.
