Nolan stands against Screening Room
Christopher Nolan has come out against Screening Room, the controversial start-up trying to release movies in the home on the same day they hit theaters.
A divide appears to be forming within the filmmaking community, as Nolan aligns himself with James Cameron and Jon Landau in opposition to the proposal.
On the other side, Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Brian Grazer, Ron Howard, JJ Abrams and Peter Jackson support the technology and have become stakeholders in the company.
Sean Parker and his partner Prem Akkaraju had developed a plan to offer new film releases for $50 per 48-hour view. Customers would also pay $150 for access to the technology, which is said to be piracy-proof.
