'Avatar' named most pirated film of 2010

�Avatar� takes the top spot among the movies that have been pirated. The James Cameron's Oscar-winning film - already the highest-grossing movie of all time after pulling in $2.8 billion at the global box office - was the most pirated movie of 2010. It has been downloaded from torrent websites 16,580,000 million times, according to TorrentFreak.com.

�Avatar� was followed by �Kick-Ass,� this spring�s super-hero movie starring Aaron Johnson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Chloe Moretz, that had some kick ass attitude. It earned a modest $48 million at the box office, but the film was downloaded from torrent sites 11.4 million times.

In third place is Inception,� starring the highest-grossing actor of 2010, Leonardo DiCaprio. The mind-bending film was downloaded 9.7 million times, according to TorrentFreak. Rounding out the top five are �Shutter Island� (downloaded 9,490,000 times) and �Iron Man 2� (8,810,000 times).
