Academy Establishes Representation and Inclusion Standards for Oscars Eligibility [Oscars] http://www.thehorrorstreamlive.com/index.php/movies/1239-academy-establishes-representation-and-inclusion-standards-for-oscars-eligibility-oscars Today, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced new representation and inclusion standards for Oscars® eligibility in the Best Picture category, as part of its Academy Aperture 2025 initiative. The standards are designed to encourage equitable representation on and off screen in order to better reflect the diversity of the movie-going audience. Academy governors DeVon Franklin and Jim Gianopulos headed a task force to develop the standards that were created from a template inspired by the British Film Institute (BFI) Diversity Standards used for certain funding eligibility in the UK and eligibility in some categories of the British Academy of Film and Television (BAFTA) Awards, but were adapted to serve the specific needs of the Academy. The Academy also consulted with the Producers Guild of America (PGA), as it presently does for Oscars eligibility. “The aperture must widen to reflect our diverse global population in both the creation of motion pictures and in the audiences who connect with them. The Academy is committed to playing a vital role in helping make this a reality,” said Academy President David Rubin and Academy CEO Dawn Hudson. “We believe these inclusion standards will be a catalyst for long-lasting, essential change in our industry.” For the 94th Oscars (2022) and 95th Oscars (2023), submitting a confidential Academy Inclusion Standards form will be required for Best Picture consideration, however meeting inclusion thresholds will not be required for eligibility in the Best Picture category until the 96th Oscars (2024). #communism #postmodernism #marxism #culturalmarxism #racism

Top 10 Diner Scenes in Horror [In Poor Taste] http://www.thehorrorstreamlive.com/index.php/movies/1238-top-10-diner-scenes-in-horror-in-poor-taste In honour of the upcoming Blu-ray release of Blood Diner from Vestron Video (review may or may not be done), Ryne Barber from The Moon is a Dead World and of course, your’s truly from Mind of Tatlock, chose to write up a list of ten diner scenes taking place in horror. The list isn’t meant to be a Top Ten (Chop Ten?) or anything, as some of the flicks listed would never end on it otherwise (cough Legion /end cough). Nevertheless, the below films all feature a diner scene that lent some importance to the film in one way or another. You’ll probably notice that our writing styles are different (i.e. Ryne is great at writing and I’m more on the “gooder” side of writing), but if you’re curious, the first five are from moi, and the next five are wonderfully written by Ryne. Having said all that, let’s order our meal and read on… #TheHitcher #TheBlob #IntheMouthofMadness #MaximumOverdrive #Legion
