Piracy will die before most movies skip theaters. Both will happen before 2020.

Franco could very well be a homo. He took that Allen Ginsberg role very seriously when that movie came out a few years back.

They can't even stop people from buying cocaine and heroine online, and you think they'll shut down piracy within the next 5 years?

Not sure if serious.

Mexican drug cartels != Major media corporations

What do Mexican drug cartels have to do with what I just said?

They profit from online drug sales, right? I'll admit, I never perused the silk road.

The only way the kill piracy is to make everything affordable to the regular person instead of gouging them for as much as they can. Corporate greed is what drives piracy.

Or they can pass a law which gives the government the right to censor the internet which they are actively looking to do.

Well, for one, the "Silk Road" doesn't even exist anymore, unless you count the bastardized "3.0", which isn't even affiliated with the original. The term you're looking for is "darknet markets" or DNMs, a general term describing the dozens of online black markets that now exist.
Most online drug transactions happen domestically, e.g., seller in US shipping to buyer in the US.
I guess you could say that indirectly helps the cartels, but I still don't see how that's relevant to the fact that the combined efforts of several governments have not succeeded in even slowing down domestic drug sales via the internet and postal services (both government and private).

Even that would only slow it down. You'd still have people with little expendable income, whether in the US or overseas, who would rather download things completely free.
You'd still have people who want to make a profit of their own by undercutting the studios with bootlegging.
This shit is not going away anytime soon. Piracy being completely eliminated is about as likely as the New World Order being instated and all of humanity being enslaved, since that's about what it would take to stop the world's pirates.
It's just as stupid as prohibition, the war on drugs, the "war on terror", or any of these other neverending whack-a-mole games that soak up resources.

The US government can't censor the entire world's internet. And even if it could, you could just bypass it using VPNs, Tor, etc.
Many of the biggest pirates aren't even from the US. The Pirate Bay was created by Swedes and hosted in Sweden. Russians are some of the biggest players in all things that relate to piracy, hacking, and the online black market.
I can buy pirated games in the Phils at kiosks in the mall.
That is not all going away because of some stupid bill passed by the US.

Exactly. Torrents aren't only uploaded in the USA. And even if they were as you pointed out the uplouders could get around any such bill with a simple VPN.
By the way, I remember reading somewhere that technically file-sharing is legal and they can't just 'ban' it. For example, many small bands and artists will upload their music themselves on torrent sites. File-sharing by itself is not illegal.
There's no way that online piracy will be eradicated. The genie is out of the battle. No law is going to change that.
