Disney buries Moore's new movie to save
its tax-breaks 05/05/2004 01:18 AM
Disney has killed the distribution of Michael Moore's new movie, Farenheit 911, which traces the links between the Bush family and Saudis like Osama bin Laden.

Mr. Moore's agent, Ari Emanuel, said Michael D. Eisner, Disney's chief executive, asked him last spring to pull out of the deal with Miramax. Mr. Emanuel said Mr. Eisner expressed particular concern that it would endanger tax breaks Disney receives for its theme park, hotels and other ventures in Florida, where Mr. Bush's brother, Jeb, is governor.

"Michael Eisner asked me not to sell this movie to Harvey Weinstein; that doesn't mean I listened to him," Mr. Emanuel said. "He definitely indicated there were tax incentives he was getting for the Disney corporation and that's why he didn't want me to sell it to Miramax. He didn't want a Disney company involved."

Eyes on the Prize rightsholders: teacher

Eyes on the Prize rightsholders: teacher
may not screen our movie to kids 02/01/2005 08:37 PM
Cory Doctorow: This is shameful. From the Downhill Battle blog:

The teacher who was planning a February 8th screening of Eyes on the Prize in Vienna, VA for students and community members has been forced to cancel after a threat of lawsuit from the "licensee level". We absolutely cannot believe this - we had never anticipated that anyone would try to stop students and community members from watching a film about the Civil Rights Movement. Apparently, the law firm that contacted them says that the school district does not have the proper licenses. This is really unbelievable-- if there is any fair use, free speech right at all, it applies to screenings of a historical documentary in a school (wikipedia on fair use). This is a public screening in an educational, non-commercial, one-time use setting. Messing with a school district in Virginia is a whole different ballgame, don't you think?

Kodak has introduced the Printer Dock Plus, which can wirelessly accept pictures from a cell phone with its built-in infrared capability as well as connect to your computer via a USB port for printing, and a new EasyShare camera, CX 7525, a 5 megapixel model with 3x optical/5x digital zoom, nine scene and color modes, the ability to capture MPEG-4 video clips at VGA (640 x 480, 13fps) or QVGA (320 x 240, 20fps) resolution and more. Printer Dock Plus (US$199.99) offers a one-touch auto-enhance feature that brightens pictures before printing, a built-in reader for SD/MMC memory cards and compatibility with PictBridge-enabled cameras, with the ability to charge their batteries while connected. An optional 8-in-1 Kodak card reader expands the types of memory cards it accepts. The new printer dock works with Mac OS X v10.2 or higher and requires 128MB RAM and 200MB hard drive space; it will be available in September.
