It’s beyond mere rhetoric now. Director Steven Spielberg has taken action to prevent Netflix from participating in the Oscars unless Netflix modifies its distribution models.
According to Vulture, the legendary filmmaker intends to change the Academy rules that could block Netflix and other streaming platforms from seeking Oscar nominations without a proper theatrical run. Typically, a movie would need a 90-day window between its theatrical release and when it can appear on the streaming service.
