Tis the season...for not much happening

Actually, the headline is not quite true, at least not for Deluxe Digital Cinema Europe (DDCE). We are currently what I would describe as out 'swan' mode, which is that we appear to glide along slowly and effortlessly on the surface, while below, there is furious paddling going on.

Right now I'm sitting in between two stacks of boxes (hard drives from WD and casings from Addonics) and I have even screwed together a few myself. They will either be the founding cornerstone of DDCE, or the ones that fall aprt first as we realise that my strength was never electronic assembly. But I do like to get stuck in.

Congratulations to our friends at Sony Pictures Entertainment as Casino Royale has its royal gala opening tonight in London and will then be screening in hundreds of US cinemas later this week. Having seen bits of it as we've done some work on it, I strongly urge you all to see it. It looks absolutely terrific.

And if it comes down to a fight between Borat and Bond at the box office this weekend, who will win? Why, it's Deluxe, as our US colleagues distributed both. I'm looking forwards to when we will shortly be doing it too.

But now back to furious paddling.
