UK cinemas to boycott Alice in Wonderland?

Those who currently reside in the UK may want to wait a while before pre-ordering your tickets for Tim Burton?s Alice in Wonderland.

According to The Guardian UK cinema chains Odeon, Vue and Cineworld (who combined represent 95% of UK 3D screens) may boycott the film because of a dispute with Disney over the release window. DVD sales are falling, and have been for a number of years. Studios are trying to find ways to boost sales, and Disney has decided to reduce the DVD release for Alice in Wonderland from 17 weeks to 12. They say that they make 97% of their total box office in the first 8 weeks, so making consumers wait another two months before they can buy the DVD legitimately just presents the pirates with an ?exclusive window.?

The cinema chains on the other hand say that bringing forward the DVD release will reduce the audience appetite to see films on the big screen, which could lead to cinema closures. The Guardian says that Disney?s distribution chiefs, Bob Chapek and Chuck Viane, have flown to the UK to talk to British exhibitors over the next couple of days in an attempt to secure a release. Alice in Wonderland is projected to make ?40 million ($62 million) in the UK, so it would be in Disney?s interests to make sure audiences can see it on March 3rd.

The funny thing is that if the situation cannot be resolved then UK moviegoers who wanted to see Alice in Wonderland may turn to piracy, so Disney?s efforts to reduce it will only backfire. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Disney reaches 'Alice' deal with Cineworld

Disney has struck a deal with UK cinema chain Cineworld to show Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland as planned, from March 5.

Cineworld, Odeon and Vue had threatened to boycott the movie last week after Disney announced that it would cut the movie's theatrical run to bring it out on DVD and Blu-ray faster. UK exhibitors usually require a guaranteed four-month theatrical run to book a film, but Alice will only screen for 12 weeks in the UK.

Cineworld Chief Executive Steve Wiener confirmed that the film will screen in its 2D and 3D theatres next month: "We are extremely pleased to have reached a satisfactory compromise on this matter. As leaders in 3D we did not want the public to miss out on such a visual spectacle. As the success of Avatar has shown there is currently a huge appetite for the 3D experience."

Odeon and Vue are yet to reach an agreement on releasing Alice, while the movie is also facing a boycott from Dutch exhibitors.

I CANNOT WAIT for this film :drool: Looks absolutely amazing. Alice in Wonderland has been my favorite story since I was really little. I have always been amazed by the story and the world that Dodgson created. I had hoped for a more adult film and by the PG rating, I assume that the film won't be that "creepy," but it still looks amazing.

Not only the UK I'm afraid. Over here (the Netherlands) not one theater will show Alice in Wonderland. Which is quite ironical because it's the first movie in a long time I was really psyched about. :/

    • That is $130 more than I paid for my 4TB a year ago. How is this a deal?
    • JetBrains' new AI-first 'IDE' JetBrains Air is now on Windows by David Uzondu JetBrains has announced that JetBrains Air, its Agentic Development Environment (ADE) is now available for download on Windows x64 and ARM. You might not be familiar with JetBrains Air. It's this new desktop app that the company launched back in March 2026 to let developers hand off tasks to AI agents instead of writing every line manually. You can see it as more of an Agentic Development Environment (ADE) rather than a traditional Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The latter builds its features around a central text editor, while the former arranges everything around the AI agent itself. Here's how JetBrains describes it: Air was born from the ashes of Fleet, an experimental editor that the company quietly killed in December 2025 after realizing that competing directly with VS Code was a losing battle. The company repurposed Fleet's lightweight, modern architecture to build Air, transforming a basic code editor into a workspace for running multiple AI agents. When Air launched, it was only available for macOS. It wasn't until earlier this month that Linux users got a chance to play with the software. Now that Air is on Windows, you can do things like map out a complex feature in Plan mode and watch an AI write the implementation plan to a markdown file before writing any code. You can iterate on this plan, add references to specific classes or files, and choose whether to run the agent locally or inside an isolated Git worktree. Running agents in parallel means you can have Claude refactor a database schema in one branch while Codex writes tests in another, leaving you free to do other important things. You can even set up a pipeline where Claude writes the code, and Codex reviews it. At the moment, Air is free. If you have a JetBrains AI Pro or Ultimate subscription, you get full access to the built-in agents, though there's also the option to Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) to run APIs from Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google. If you're interested, here are the download links for both x64 and ARM64.
    • Depending how you’re wiring it internally, but try to put it inside conduit, that way in the future you can more easily replace cables, compared to running inside studs alone At least cat6a too
    • I bet Meta has lots of info on you anyway, gathered by other means. And Google, and Microsoft, and every other tech giant. If you use some form of modern electronic device, they own you already...
