To file a counter notice, they must have a "good faith" reason for their dispute.
The MPAA's claim is that Popcorn is used for piracy. IANAL and don't know the case law, so I don't know if it has merit.
But a "good faith" dispute has to address the claim. Their dispute is arguing that they own the code. The MPAA never claimed they don't, that's simply not responding to the substance of their argument.
They should really get an attorney. FFS, at least read the counter notice guidelines; I think they believe they're dealing with Github customer support.
