One of the more interesting developments in the 2004 presidential campaign is the home movie phenomenon. First there was “Outfoxed,” Robert Greenwald’s indictment of Rupert Murdoch’s fair and balanced news channel, which opened not in a theater near you, but in your neighbor’s house. And now we have “There’s Something About W,” a damning, point-by-point critique of the havoc wreaked by the Bush administration. Featuring the sober analysis of intelligent Bush critics like Paul Krugman, Molly Ivins and Kevin Phillips and enlivened by the one-liners of comedians like Will Durst and Al Franken, the 40-minute documentary is a useful tool of political persuasion for the swing-voter couple who lives down the street. (Franken gets off the best shot: “During the 2000 campaign, when Bush said he was against nation building, I didn’t realize he meant only our nation.”)

David Pescovitz: I'm disappointed that I missed catching a flick in a secret cinema/restaurant below the streets of Paris. Police discovered the theater--complete with electricity, CCTV security, and phone lines--within an uncharted cavern in the city's 170 miles of tunnels and caves. According to The Guardian, a full-size screen and projector had been installed and police found "a wide variety of films, including 1950s film noir classics and more recent thrillers." A stocked bar and "pressure-cooker for making couscous" was also discovered.

Three days later, when the police returned accompanied by experts from the French electricity board to see where the power was coming from, the phone and electricity lines had been cut and a note was lying in the middle of the floor: "Do not," it said, "try to find us."

Cory Doctorow: The sterling satirists of Loading Ready Run have produced a sharp, funny and amazingly true short film in response to the "Who makes movies?" anti-piracy spots that we're subjected to before we see our $10-13 flicks.

This spot, called "Who watches movies?" and features a graphic designer talking about how grossly offensive it is to pay a stack of money, sit through interminable advertisements, then be lectured at in a film made by some distant coked-up Hollyweird fatcat. 4.4MB MP4 Link (Thanks, Paul!)

We had a full house last night for an Oscar's party of sorts (TV is upstairs in a little loft area so people weren't forced to watch).  I was sad because Titanic couldn't win again; it was such a great film that they really ought to give it Best Picture every year in perpetuity.  I was confused when a neighbor sung the praises of the movie Rushmore and its genius director, Wes Anderson.The movie was fun but if there were profound ideas in it, I'm not sure what they were.  Books, on the other hand, have been much more thought-provoking for me.  Is there any reason to expect that books are a better source of serious thinking than movies?  One possible theory is that people who have profound thoughts shy away from the committee and group work characteristic of filmmaking.  Even if Joe Director finances a film himself and has 100 percent authority he will still spend a tremendous amount of time and effort communicating his ideas to subordinates, many of whom will misunderstand what he says.  Thoughtful writers, by contrast, tend to be solitary figures who stay at home in the Connecticut woods (Philip Roth, Edward Tufte).  One of our friends is a truly brilliant and original scientist (i.e., more or less average for Cambridge).  This tenured professor says "I don't like to read, write, or teach."  What does he enjoy doing?  "I like to think."

Would anyone like to take up my neighbor's position that Rushmore is as profound as any book?

Download-To-Own Movies: Get Less For
More! 01/16/2004 01:03 PM
You may recall CinemaNow - the major studio backed online movie downloading company - from the review in the NY Times last year which included such great quotes as: "How CinemaNow stays in business is a marvel. The site is so marred by typos and poor programming, it could have been a high school sophomore's first Web design project." and "CinemaNow stand[s] out primarily for [its] puny selection, poor video quality and overly rigid copy protection." A ringing endorsement. Well, now it looks like they're trying to adjust their business model, and instead of just allowing people to watch movies for a limited time, they're starting up a "download-to-own" feature complete with annoying copy protection (of course). As with the download movie rentals, you get less for more. Now, instead of actually owning a DVD that you can play anywhere on any machine (and which comes with extras and perhaps a booklet with more info), you get a digital copy of the movie that is completely clamped down on the machine you downloaded it on. Also, the prices are more expensive than buying a DVD. A quick look at their featured choice for "download-to-own" shows that you can get the same movie, brand new, on DVD at Amazon for $3.75 less. They're also claiming that you can now start watching a movie 30 seconds after it begins downloading. If it really works well, that's great, but if it includes typical video buffer loading pauses, I imagine it's not going to make many movie renters happy.

Stupid Movies

Stupid Movies 05/28/2004 09:35 AM

I'm glad to see that "The Day After Tomorrow" -- a disaster movie about climate change -- is getting bad reviews. Much of science in this picture, by almost every account, is ludicrous. There's almost no doubt that we're heading toward serious global consequences due to our prolificacy in the use of energy and other things that affect climate, but stupid movies shouldn't be moving the discussion in either direction. And when otherwise reputable people and organizations like Al Gore and Moveon.org use the movie to leverage their own concerns, they don't enhance their own reputations. The notion that global warming could set off an ice age is not stupid, however idiotically and unrealistically the movie portrays such an event. Scientists have offered persuasive evidence that such a thing is at least thinkable. And there's widespread consensus among scientists about global warming itself. I'll probably watch this movie when it hits the cable channels. I won't imagine, however, that it's about much of anything serious.

People Don't Like Going To The Movies
Any More 06/17/2005 03:33 PM
The movie industry has been on this crusade lately, with MPAA head going on and on saying that the reason people aren't going to the movies is becau se they're at home downloading movies. However, most people recognize that's unlikely to be the leading cause of problems for the industry. Instead, it's that movies are now compe ting with a lot of other entertainment options and the experience of going out to the movies isn't very much fun any more. The theaters all seem crowded. You have to sit through what seems like half an hour of commercials. The prices just keep getting higher. And, of course, you have to deal with rude and annoying people in the theater who seem to have no problem annoying everyone else. So, is it really any surprise at all that a whopping 73% of people surveyed say they prefer watching movies at home? Is it any wonder that so many in the industry are scared to death of DVDs being released at the same time as the movie itself? The theater industry (not the movie industry as a whole) is facing something of a crisis -- but it has nothing to do with people downloading, and everything to do with theater owners inability to recognize that going to the movies is a social experience, and working on ways to make that social experience a lot more enjoyable. Theater owners in China reali zed this, and saw their box office take shoot up to record levels. Theaters in the UK are starting to recognize this and are addin g extra incentives to go out to the theater. If the movie industry would stop rushing to blame downloading and look at the advantages they offer while minimizing a lot of the things that annoy people, perhaps they wouldn't be having so many problems these days. Of course, rather than do that, they're trying to becom e even more hated while begging Congress to come up with ways to protect their business model.
