24th December, 2020.
Right …
It’s that day of the year where I wish you a Happy Christmas Eve.
I hope it goes well for you.
But just as an observation?
If you haven’t bought the presents by now?
It’s a bit late!

Just as a quite thought?
You remember the Warner Brothers is due to release a number of its big release films, next year: including a version of Dune I’d like to see.
Due to release them both theatrically, and via US-only streaming
According to this piece from Indie Wire, it seems Legendary, one of the films financiers, are negotiating with Warner Brothers: to try and guarantee a cinema only release.
I gather they believe that — by the film’s expected release date of October 2021 — enough social distancing measures will have been removed to allow serious moment to be earned.
Hmmm …
I …
I think that’s possibly a good thing.
After all, this version is only the first half of the story: it needs to do well, in order to guarantee the second half being made.
I can’t help but think a joint international release — as opposed to a joint release, just in the US — could be a far better option.

Just as a quick point?
Thank you to both Debbi and Olga for the video mentions.
And thank Edith: as she gives us a timely reminder …
