From what friends have told me, renting a room in a cabin in Sundance for a few days can be as expensive as a month's rent in New York or San Francisco. I've noticed an increasing number of critics only spending a brief period there rather than staying for the whole festival. I wonder what the long-term effects of this will be. I'm also curious if the online component will end up replacing theatrical distribution for many films.
