Oscar Screener Ban to be Revoked for Academy Members

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the saner-solutions dept.

bigjocker writes "Yahoo is reporting that the ban to distribute screeners copies will be revoked. The bad news is that only members of the Academy will receive them." It's still unclear how this will affect events such as the Golden Globe awards. According to the article, several critics' organisations have yet to decide their reaction. I'm guessing that at the least, Academy members are pleased to know they won't have to find a theatre to screen award nominees.

  8. Waschowski brothers and hollywood by zymano · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Waschowski brothers wanted to cast their own people in the Matrix films but Warner told them no way. So Warner cast Keanu Reeves in the movie.

    I wonder who they would have originally cast as NEO. I hope not Kevin Costner who was also mentioned by Warner. The source is Wired.com .

    Hollywood is pure Nepotism and directors putting their fuck puppets(milla jovavich,Cybil Shepard) in their films.

    Michael Moore made a huge deal about it last year when he thought he wouldn't win Best Documentary. "Bowling for Columbine" was for a mainstream audience, and not enough "mainstream" voters had seen the others in his category.

    Never mind that it didn't even belong in the documentary category. I thought documentaries were supposed to be about that which is real or true...Bowling for Columbine is neither.
