Surprisingly no. Disney acquired it a couple months after they took over following its premiere at Cannes last year.

Remember when STX picked up Horizon Line with plans to release it theatrically? Well, it's getting dumped onto Epix next month with a Blu-ray release to come in February.

As widely speculated/assumed, Warner Brothers will be throwing Judas and the Black Messiah into the awards race. It's officially been dated for February 12th.

Hulu is reportedly on the cusp of acquiring The United States vs. Billie Holiday from Paramount. Don't know if it's going to keep its current February 26th date, but the belief is that it will released during this awards period.

I had a feeling that was getting sold off. Paramount hasn't released anything for it and a documentary on Holliday just came out.

It wasn't being pushed for awards which is always a bad sign.

So far it seems so.

The interesting thing is that the favourite is still the very small and intimate Nomadland. The indie sector definitely needs all the help it can get

If they don't have it, I feel it will be less about COVID and more about the establishment not wanting the streamers to dominate. The film industry's handling of their titles has simply been petty and if they all die off, they will only have themselves to blame. Same thing with theatre chains, with their whole "blame it on Cuomo" mantra.

Also, I hope they have it so David Poland will be wrong. That guy is so smug.

The Boss Baby 2 has been pushed back six months to 9/17/2021. I saw a trailer for this yesterday and it looks awful.

HBO Max is releasing Lockdown on January 14th. I guess they've become the exclusive home for Anne Hathaway's declining career.

Babylon is delayed another year to 12/25/2022. I guess that clears up the 2021 Oscar race a bit.
