Los Oscares serán el 24 de Febrero, pero en vez de platicar lo ocurrido (clásico), aprovechemos para cultivarnos y adelantarnos un poquito a lo que nos importa: los productos, las películas.
Leyendo Torrentfreak.com, uno de los blogs más populares de Estados Unidos con respecto a todo lo relacionado a este p2p, leo que la Academia de los Oscares ya hace todo lo posible por esconder la lista de nominados lo más posible, porque cuanto más pronto sale la gente se pone a descargar estas películas tan cotizadas, perdiendo la industria bastante por la gente que deja de comprar boletos y dvds. Pero la lista ya salió y Torrentfreak.com publica una lista de la disponibilidad de archivos nominados al oscar desde el 2005. Para más info ver su post.
Los dvds se fugan clandestinamente por los servidores, ese es el problema. A esos dvds que se mandan a los jueces, se les llaman Screeners, previos que a veces tmb pasan en videorentas, para promocionar las películas como muestra, antes de que salgan al cine.
He aquí algunas de las películas que busco ver sacada de la misma página de los oscares. y mis recomendaciones en las que ya vi...
(como siempre lo he dicho, creo que en Mexicali nos volvemos cinéfilos por necesidad, y a todo el mundo le gusta opinar, así que vamos:)
