This complaint is so elitist. Oh no, how dare more people watch a movie.Netflix movies are available in 190 countries, 24-7.
Isn't this what DVD screeners are for? Barker didn't do his part to make sure more voters saw his movies. He can't complain when there are other ways around this problem.The massive “Roma” push crushed foreign-language distributors. Sony Pictures Classics co-president Michael Barker said he had no financial option but to release Oscar nominees “Never Look Away” and “Capernaum” when theaters opened up after the holidays, which meant fewer Academy voters had a chance to see them.
The negative is that those who wouldn't be able to see it theatrically in the first place - because films like Roma wouldn't get a wide and *timely* and *global* theatrical release comparable to a blockbuster where this isn't at all an issue - have to wait even longer to catch it.Michaelf2225 wrote: ↑March 1st, 2019, 9:50 pmi don’t see a negative to mandating a longer theatrical (exclusive) exhibition for features
