Has anyone seen this, 40 mins in and I can barely take it, did it go straight to streaming/dual release?
Jesus it's 2h30 long, this is going to be a 3 dayer for me, break time.

If the start is anything to go by I can see why they were touting skipping the Cinema, so bad.

Only, do you mean a typical vax or this one because this one does not prevent transmission to or from, HI is the only strategy here with or without.

winni 300k deaths is fanciful, unless you mean world wide and hospitals are always 90% full this time of year, and in fairness why wouldn't you always want hospitals full treating people rather than having them waiting, that stat is meaningless by itself without context. I assume you mean died within 28 days of a positive test and that is dangerously misleading, a couple of thousand people have died only from covid in the uk, isn't it like the 26th highest cause of death.

Put down the BBC, bodies are not piling up in the streets!

As always we need to consider what the masses believe rather than the truth but the evidence seems to suggest that prof lockdown's claims about the extra transmissibility are based on modelling and 'no other evidence' (we know he is usually out by a factor of 10) and the strain along with thousands more have been floating around for months...

Bozo to take the state at 17:30, are we all in tier 4 or is he sacking MH?!

I suppose the middle road is to try and tell us that France won't attempt to starve us out, I'd say Tier 4 is more likely, double down Doris just can't stop digging...

Oh dear, chap11?

Mulan was trash though, Tenet was good but not great (although I watched both on the small screen)

FN, masks to stop covid?! Yeah ignore the decades of studies, the Danish one and any and all scientific common sense and sure you could make that case I guess. I really despair of what we have become, think it's time to kiss this board goodbye, luckily novel virus follow the same pattern every time but heaven help us if something actually serious comes along. Still then at least we wont need propaganda and fines to convince us we are ill, we'd actually stay home less be stepping over dead bodies in Tescos.

Add to that 30-50% with prior immunity from previous coronavirus infections plus the 20% of the population who caught it in April and we should already be there or not far off, we coking on gas.

Is no one seriously worried they haven't tested this stuff on old people or for any cross reaction with medicine, which old people disproportionately take more of, the effect on people who might fall pregnant or already be without realising? I guess if the vaccine starts to hurt people, probably then we will have bigger issues than a slight share price reduction, in for a penny in for a pound at this point.

People seem to think it's needed and will help so hurry up with it.

Regarding gaming, isn't (and hasn't it for a looong time) been a larger market than films and music combined?
I don't see it as a major threat right now, gaming for me isn't very relaxing, it requires effort, it's a great medium but films are legitimately brain off, unwind, destress and a different animal IMO.

There's some good studies, if you wait for that perfect moment to dump all your cash in you miss out waiting for it, look at the US indices since 2009, you would have trebled you cash and then some waiting for Covid. Ok if you came into money in March you would be loving life now but if you're putting away often and into an index then drip drip and relax. Everyone's time horizon and risk tolerance, plus knowledge and research time are different I guess.

I set my sister up with an ISA, single US fund, 15 months ago, regular deposit and she's up 33% in a pandemic (apparently), she's never logged in!

I got squashed in March and choose to average down and down in this one buying from 25 down to 8, at 14 I break even. I was seduced by the promise not to cut the divi, annoyingly I stayed quite-anti Shell and likely missed out on a great change to capitalise on the recovery. I bought enough to lower my costs but not to really make anything in the short term. Things are starting to look up though...

When you test a drug and the default rate of issue/death without intervention is 5/10000 for the under 70s, what would be considered a statistically significant improvement? How would you ever reach that number, you would have to have no deaths in 100,000 maybe. Still if it gets people back out and spending then great I guess, shame we all have to pay Pfizer for sugar water but whatever.

Cine fell more today because AMC and Cinemark fell the day before after we closed. Cinemark bounced nicely today and I made a good profit on the over reaction, AMC may well be toast.

In 2017 on an average day 7700 us residents died each day, fun fact and a dose of perspective...

Whilst I agree with the fact that piracy is an issue, I did always make the case that were studios to scrap the tiered release practice and also geographical location restrictions and deliver a product to customers, at the same time, for a fair price, people will happily pay. I don't pirate music since streaming....

Cinema is an experience for sure, but I usually only go a tolerate d1cks kicking the seats and talking and txting when I'm too impatient to wait for a film to come out for home viewing on streaming platforms or from other sources

Ooh misread who that was, multitasking!! :(

AMC touted funding raise I read so it's likely that.

I made a big jump in after some stability at 60-64 before the big drops, then had to scrimp, save, sell, beg and borrow to average down, got a small amount at 16p! If only if only if only I had timed it better and held me nerve more often. Some profit for sure now and more to come but not the best plays by me. The cash is earmarked for something else next May so I have added pressure on every decision in this one.

Kind words thank you, I wish the same to you, I have no children and I live alone, enforce isolation basically for almost a year once this is said and done, I very nearly became a statistic but not after becoming ill so I take the severity of the overall situation very seriously.

Sadly of those who've succumbed haven't caused the overall deaths to be higher when taken as an average and if it weren't broadcast every day no one would know there was anything going on, 2018 was a bad flu year, made the papers like every year, bed full and such, we all carried on. 1600 people die every day, many of those deaths to come will be 30yr olds with fully treatable (if caught early cancers), people who have lost everything, killed themselves, died of loneliness and on, young people's deaths are tragic, 84yr olds deaths are sad, but not unexpected, yes there are always outliers but the figures 'with' vs 'of' are out by a factor of 10!

We cannot cure death as much as that seems to be the goal. I'm not surprised working in a hospital you know of people who have died. Don't you find it odd that flu and pneumonia have all but been eradicated this year?

Being alive isn't living and no one should have the right to ruin someone else's family, life, future for their fear, especially when the worst place for spread is hospitals, makes a bit of a mockery of telling everyone else to stay apart. The care homes that were forced to take in known sick people to die and infect others at the beginning of this, lets just say I look forward to the public enquiry.

Personal responsibility, education and encouragement, when did they stop being a thing, we get behavioural manipulation, propaganda, fear, lies, indemnity and coercion. I do think there's a chance this business goes under here, I cannot grasp why we are all collectively allowing this to happen, where do we think health care will come from when we are all out of work and destitute.

The miracle vaccine's success parameters were decided by the manufacturer and the trials were done by the same, bit like giving yourself a participation medal.

Hopefully this placebo is enough to let Doris claim victory and realise if he doesn't start unwinding this madness he is done, maybe old normal after all. Maybe not, Van Tam wants you on a train, this way good people into the train cars, get your vaccine and a little yellow passport stamp, utterly disgusting people leading this country.

I hope CINE get's to start trading before it and I go bust but there is a small chance it won't the longer people refuse to accept reality. How many bodies have you had to climb over in the streets today? Most catch it in hospital, the age of death on average is older than the typical life span and we have to coerce and threaten people with lockdowns to take a drug that has been rushed and the manufacturer indemnified, for a illness you have to take a test to know you have.

Madness.

I slept through the spike, I don't need to wake until 9:30 and can never decide at 1:30am to set an alarm for 8 or no, no usually wins! I'm tempted to set some sell orders staggered around and up to £1 just in case but I prefer not to give the MMs any help in screwing us, guess it's early nights for me again for a few days! :)

Not always needing to limit the amount of shares but as a price rises more and more short positions start to lose profit and ultimately swing to a loss, as this happens they have to buy back the shares they sold to pay them back, as more and more do this the price goes up adding more and more pressure, couple that with some FOMO traders getting sucked into the rise and it can be pretty fun!
