Veteran filmmaker Steven Spielberg is taking his fight with streaming giant Netflix a notch above. According to Indiewire, the 72-year-old director will be speaking with the Board of Governors at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) to insist for a rule change that will make films made by the streaming services like Netflix, Hulu and Amazon ineligible for Oscars. Spielberg represents the Directors branch of the Academy on their Board of Governors.

"Steven feels strongly about the difference between the streaming and theatrical situation," a spokesperson for Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment said. "He'll be happy if others also join his campaign when that comes up at the Academy Board of Governors meeting," the spokesperson added.
