Foulmouthed, pansexual, and highly meta, Deadpool might be the outlier in superhero terms, but he is also the star of the most pirated movie of 2016, according to figures compiled by filesharing news site TorrentFreak.
死侍这个嘴臭，烂性又多元的角色似乎是超级英雄中的异类，但文件共享新闻网站TorrentFreak提供的统计数据显示，死侍也是最受2016年盗版电影青睐的角色。
According to the site, precise figures are not available because, in the current reporting environment, it is more challenging to monitor downloads. But it says its estimates are based on several sources, including public BitTorrent trackers.
TorrentFreak says pirated versions of Deadpool emerged shortly before the films cinema release in February, and illegal downloads number in the millions. The film scored over $783m at the global box office.
Two more high-performing superhero films occupied second and third spots, with the popularity of Batman v Superman and Captain America: Civil War appearing to conform to the presumed comic-book sensibilities of
torrent users. The former was released in March 2016, the latter in April.
Two more comic-book adaptations X-Men Apocalypse and Suicide
Squad also feature on the list.
The appetite for pirated films also appeared to run along box-office lines, although videogame adaptation Warcraft and Independence Day:
Resurgence performed
relatively poorly at the box office (with, respectively, $386m and $389m globally), suggesting that
piracy could have taken a significant bite out of revenues for both films.
The Revenant, at No 10 on the list, was notoriously posted on the internet before its release by former film studio employee William Kyle Morarity, who was convicted and fined $1.12m in October.
