Is it right to torrent a movie which you would have never otherwise watched? Meaning you would have never given money to see/buy/rent the film because of its supposed suck-factor or you just plain hate the film?

It's still wrong. Why is it less morally objectionable when you replace the words
walk into a rental store and walk out with a movie in your pocket with
torrent? It's not wrong because you're not physically doing any stealing? What? You're having something for free that would ordinarily have cost you money; it doesn't matter if you "would never have given money to see/buy/rent" it in the first place. I understand this viewpoint and used to use that exact justification for pirating things myself, but the fact remains that you're still stealing the product.
Just out of curiosity, can you show me these 32-bit shades of gray?
Jam it back in, in the dark.
