Oscar Nominated Short Films Pulled From the Web Normally, the Best Short Film awards at the Oscars are a great opportunity to go the kitchen to grab a beer. After all, you probably haven’t seen these films and don’t have much invested in who’s winning or losing (unless you’re the gambling type).

Oscars 2013: how politics won the Academy's votes Early in 1927, Louis B Mayer, the head of MGM studios and soon to be the highest-paid executive in the world, met a handful of fellow conservative thinkers to create an elite Hollywood organisation with the grandiose title of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The aim was to deter the development of unions, or at least to control and arbitrate their operations. The academy, and the awards set up the following year as an expression of the good taste of its members (of whom there are now 6,000), began in politics and continue to be influenced by it. Twenty years later, MGM went for three years without winning an Oscar and Mayer was fired by the company's ultimate boss in New York and ceased to be a serious figure in the industry. Those who choose to live by the Oscars die by them.

Sundance For Horror Films Only: The Stanley Film Festival Looks to the Future By Eric Kohn | Indiewire May 6, 2013 at 12:15PM Horror film festivals are hardly a new concept, but in its first year the Stanley Film Festival has hit on something new: a horror film festival in a haunted hotel. The Stanley Hotel. Minimalist Posters That Reduce Your Favorite Movies To Basic Shapes In the future, when the history of the Internet is taught alongside social studies and algebra in middle school, there will be a brief, marginal mention of minimalist posters and how they, for a moment, encapsulated a bit of the late-aughts web. Curious students may do a little research of their own, going on to discover just how much of a hold the design trend once exerted over the popular imagination (or, at least, that of micro-bloggers). They may even come across Michal Krasnopolski’s set of minimalist classic movie posters. Speculation aside, Krasnopolski’s posters are the latest to crop up in the meme’s short but copious history. The typical minimalist poster combines movie iconography and a pared-down midcentury aesthetic, something we’ve seen again and again and again.
