"Movies are poised to change"... but all for the better - so says Facebook mogul Mark Zuckerberg

Why I 'Like' Facebook and other unexpected revelations

Immortality: 1080p24, H.264

In August’s edition of http://bit.ly/a16uTThttp://bit.ly/a16uTT there is a brief reference under ‘in production’ (p.8) to Guy Maddin – that Canadian connoisseur of a particular early cinema aesthetic . Although the main headline is regarding the happy fact that Maddin is about to start shooting his first feature since My Winnipeg (2007), it was the aside that interested me:



“Concurrently, Maddin and a few… Continue

If you are thinking about social media as a solution for you, here are a few things we suggest you keep in mind…

Don’t get carried away with concept over content: think long term and develop a strategy that suits you and your audience, rather than jumping in to everything! Chose one option (Facebook is a favourite) and start with that.

Cines Verdi : social media au pays d’Almodovar

Cines Verdi!!



Also movie-eaters can engage in social media! Iván Barredo cares for its younger audience by extending the online presence of the Cines Verdi beyond its internet homepage, to Facebook, and even Tuenti- a Spanish social network for young people in their twenties. It would be sad not to tell the entire world how valuable it is to watch a restored copy of Lola Montes in its original version. If art-house rather suffers from web pirats in Spain, Ivan Barredo well… Continue

Classic post-movie debate brought to you by Moviepilot and friends. But which docs have we missed?…



Following the screening of Kick-Ass, the Moviepilot crew – sticking to the age-old tradition – decamped to a nearby bar to discuss the film – a vitally important element of the cinematic ritual. After much jubilant collective reviewing, we all agreed that the film ‘kicked ass’.



Next, joining forces with the Feunf Film Fruende team on the next table, we worked our way… Continue
