The legal way is to buy used copies.

You can also check them out from the Multnomah County Library system
(http://multcolib.org) either directly or via Inter-Library Loan to the
Scapoose Public Library.  You'll have to put them on hold a wait a while.

They are also available for rent from Movie Madness, which is worth a visit
just to look at the movie props and read the shelf labels. :)
If you go, bring your Dad, he'd like it.  It's next to a cart-pod and down
the street from a very good English-style pub.

What you do with the DVDs after you borrow or rent them is your business.
I (and PLUG) cannot condone piracy.
