Today it was announced that Academy Awards bosses have kicked out Carmine Caridi for the first time in history after copies of confidential preview videos ended up on the internet.

This is such an interesting story. I was talking with some colleagues about it just yesterday. It throws so many holes into MPAA's anti-piracy campaign, that it makes it almost a total mockery.
But really, have you ever watched screener copies? They're totally annoying. Every couple of minutes, a huge text box comes up on the bottom of the screen. It is particularly annoying while watching films with sub-titles. I'd rather swallow the ginormous fees that the studios force on theaters and go see it on the big screen. |
