number one Steven Spielberg says Netflix
doesn’t deserve Oscars
the battle between Netflix and movie
theaters wages on a long view but Steven
Spielberg director of cinematic classics
like et and Jurassic Park took a swing
at the streaming service this week
telling ITV News that their movies
should not be eligible for the Academy
Awards I don’t believe that I’ve given
token qualifications and a couple of
theatres for less than a week should be
qualified for the Academy Award nominee
instead Spielberg feels that as soon as
filmmakers decide to commit to a TV
format they should be considered for
Emmys instead the Academy of Television
Arts and Sciences does have a category
in which those types of productions
could fit the Primetime Emmy Award for
outstanding television movie Spielberg
joins a growing list of directors who
have publicly denounced Netflix its
theatrical campaign including
Christopher Nolan who called the
streaming service mindless and pointless
that’s gonna kill us right there that’s
it
that image we’re dead while Spielberg
does think Netflix shouldn’t be
nominated for Oscars
he hasn’t ruled out working with him in
the future saying that he wouldn’t mind
joining the likes of Martin Scorsese and
the Coen brothers by making content
specifically for Netflix by the way the
television is greater today as it’s ever
been in the history of television
there’s better writing better directing
better performances thanks for watching
