  • Apple is on track to triple sales and rentals of movies on iTunes this year. Their business got a shot in the arm when they began selling new releases early last month, enabling untold numbers of McConaughey addicts to get their Fool’s Gold fix on the go.
  • AMPAS will limit Oscar nominations in the Best Original Song category to two per film. This should help head off a disaster like this year, in which the three nominated songs from Enchanted split the vote, leaving the door open for the independent artists behind the movie Once to steal an Oscar that rightfully belonged to the Hollywood blockbuster.
  • Wayne McClammy, the I’m Fucking Matt Damon guy, is attached to direct Le Car, a comedy about the CIA and the Winter Olympics, based on script by himself and Will Burke.
  • Spain’s ICAA Film Institute gave Javier Bardem 30,000 Euros for his “defense of the acting profession and continued commitment to Spanish film at home and abroad.”
