So this looks interesting:

If this one slipped under your rader, here's the Cliff Notes version of the dealio: ESCAPE FROM TOMORROW is a film about a a man having increasingly disturbing experiences and visions during the last day of a family vacation to the Walt Disney World theme park. The film was shot 'guerilla style' on location at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland without permission from The Walt Disney Company, and after principal photography was complete, Moore was so determined to keep the project a secret from Disney that he edited it in South Korea. There was a lot of speculation that Disney would take legal action to prevent the film from being shown outside of Sundance, but now the film is scheduled for a release in theaters day-and-date with VOD on October 11

I always thought the moment the Sundance screening happened it was going to be gone and live on the piracy websites. Then it made it to EbertFest but I just attributed that to goodwill because it being the first EbertFest since Roger's death so that got the go-ahead. Now I'm just thinking that Disney looks at this movie and figures to sue or give a cease and desist would only give this more publicity.

I think this one is falling into the gap of illegality that Girl Talk albums have fallen in to: so brazenly illegal, so artfully bold, that prosecution is kind of beside the point. It's like it's transcended the law through sheer ballsiness.

Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good anymore…I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.
