HOLLYWOOD (BBC) The Hollywood venue that hosts the Oscars has been renamed the Dolby Theatre in a new sponsorship deal. The 3,400-seater building, which has been home to the annual Academy Awards ceremony since 2002, was previously known as the Kodak Theatre. Earlier this year a judge granted Eastman Kodak permission to end the $74 million, 20-year naming rights deal it signed in 2000.
