Spielberg against Netflix is a fight of Titans as it not seen since the eternal dispute against the sweet Quince. The director sought to introduce changes in the rules so that the movies produced by streaming services were not considered for an Academy Award, but his peers gave him the back. Initial reports claimed that Spielberg would be appropriate at the last meeting of the members of the Academy, but according to The New York Times director did not attend the meeting because they are very busy, so the rule change was not addressed. In addition, it is considered that his remarks were misinterpreted and exaggerated by the press. “I want that people find entertainment in any way that is convenient to them. “Big or small screen, what matters most to me are the great stories and all should be able to access the great stories,” Steven told the daily. “However, I feel that people need to have the opportunity to get out of the safe and familiar in their lives and go to a place where he can sit in the company of others and have a collective experience.”
“I want the cinemas to survive. I want that cinematic experience continues to be relevant in our culture,”said Spielberg.
“Apparently that concerned to the director is not the films awards like Rome, which are released on Netflix and a limited amount of rooms at the same time, but conservation of the experience of cinema as such.” I want the cinemas to survive. I want that cinematic experience continues to be relevant in our culture,”he said. Of course those words will be opposite of his previous statements, in which claimed that “once you comprometés you to a television format you’re a film for TV” that may deserve an Emmy but not an Oscar. It seems that meeting with Ted Sarandos, Netflix CEO and his appearance onstage at Apple during the announcement of Apple TV + (which many accused him unjustly a moral double), Spielberg changed his mind. It happens to the best Steven, don’t worry. We look forward to seeing your inevitable exclusive movie from Netflix in 2021.
