MVO1: Truth? You no can handle truth.

ANN: Pirate copies are just never the same as the real thing. Get the original movies on DVD at Virgin Megastore. Where it’s all at.
Brief Explanation

Dubai has a real problem with pirate DVDs being shipped in from China. The quality of these is usually terrible, but the price and speed at which they hit the streets adversely affect DVD sales at Virgin.
This campaign was designed to humorously promote the genuine articles by ridiculing the fakes.
