Sorry, but you have made some errors in this thread.
1. The countries I listed are all signatories of the Berne Convention. Any copyright in any of these counties is automatically honored by all other countries that have signed the convention. There is no need to file a copyright in each country.
2. Under the Copyright Act of 1978, any item is copyrighted automatically by the act of publishing. Publishing means placing in a form that can be read/seen/heard by another person and making it available to that person. For example, you are in a bar and write something on a bar napkin. When you hand it to another person, that is publishing it. It is then automatically copyrighted. There is no need to register the copyright or place a copyright symbol on the napkin. (Although both are still suggested.) TradeMark law is similar by requires continued use.
3. Viewing a movie online that has been pirated involves downloading it, even if it is streamed. That is making a copy and is illegal. (You can make copies if you have a legal item for backup purposes as long as you do not sell/rent/loan either the copy or original to someone else while continuing to use the item yourself or if the item is restricted to a specific device or medium.) This is in no way similar to watching a legal film at a friend's house. The copyright laws specifically allow you to borrow legal tapes, books, etc. and to listen/view them as long is it is not commercial (e.g. a bar showing a movie to many people requires payment of royalties because it is a commercial establishment.) A jukebox in a bar is legal because royalty payments are made for each song played. Hooking up an iPod in a bar to play music is illegal.
(Sorry all my examples involve bars.
