Not content with winning a Webby the other week, our friends at The Auteurs have decided to rebrand themselves Mubi. Why? Well, it might have something to do with a partnership they've just announced with SCEE to bring the service exclusively to the PlayStation3. We're all for this as there isn't enough decent independent film out there and to see it on a platform like the PS3 can only be good news for all the filmmakers and the filmlovers out there.
MUBI founder Efe √áakarel said: “MUBI is the fastest growing online destination for lovers of independent, foreign and classic film - and it is amazing how many people that covers. Our partnership with PlayStation brings online cinema to TV screens in homes around the world giving PlayStation owners a whole new world of entertainment to explore. And discovery couldn’t be more fun - from finding out about the films behind the latest buzz at Cannes, to taking the film recommendation of MUBI members like Martin Scorsese.”
MUBI for PS3 will be launched this autumn initially in the UK, Ireland, France, Italy, Iberia, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Benelux, Nordic countries, Australia and New Zealand. Prepare to dim your lights and enjoy the main feature.
