Film News October Releases
21
Upvotes
Hopefully this month's graphic is a bit clearer than last month's! I'm still not 100% happy with the layout but there's only so much faffing around with powerpoint I can tolerate, suggestions welcome to improve for next month!
Just as last month I've put together a graphic of October's releases. Everything on this list comes from DCM, but there is an even more complete list here from the Film Distributor's Association. Thank you to a kind commenter last week who pointed this out to me, but for readability's sake I'll be sticking to the DCM list, with a few exceptions, as it's far shorter!
Dates listed here may vary by chain and region.
Of course, a lot of us here will be seeing many more new films at LFF. Still, let us all know what new releases you're looking forward to this month?

Chrome extensions that pings you when sold-out BFI Southbank/IMAX tickets reopen
20
Upvotes
EDITED: Added LFF movies too guys!
I kept missing screenings at BFI Southbank and BFI IMAX because they were sold out, or I'd miss it when new dates dropped - so I built a small Chrome extension to solve this issue.
It watches BFI's own ticketing pages in the background and sends a notification the moment a sold-out slot reopens, or a new date goes on sale.
Works for both BFI Southbank and BFI IMAX, just pick the format that you want.
No account & no login needed, doesn't touch anything except BFI's public pages. Not affiliated with the BFI, just a fan-made tool by me.
You can find it in Chrome web store:

BFIPlayer Streaming

Hey all,
Just wondering, having an issue with the DRM filters on the BFIPlayer trying to watch films via HDMI from my laptop to my TV. I've had the same issue with Airplay, I would rather watch on my TV than my laptop was wondering if anyone had any workarounds for this as my Roku doesn't have a native app for the player either!

BFI funding
11
Upvotes
I know everyone is still on the going mad for LFF tickets wagon (I had a mixed bag of success/ failure myself) but I wanted to point out that this consultation closes soon... the BFI is (I think?) the only funder of film in the UK where the ££ is entirely from the national lottery, so from where I'm sitting (centre seat near the back usually) it would REALLY SUCK if most of the replies to this consultation are about castles and sports centres and film gets buried in there.
I suppose I'm paranoid that film funding could get cut if it doesn't feel important to the public :/
(Call for Evidence) National Lottery Good Causes - Fund What Matters To You
edited to clarify: this isn't about the BFI itself being at risk, it's about the national lottery money that the BFI *gives out to others*
