The Guardian is reporting that UK cinema chains may boycott Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland due to the period between cinema and DVD release being too short.
Typically there is a standard 17 weeks between cinema release and the DVD being available, but Disney wants to drop this to 12 weeks for Alice in Wonderland and the cinema chains don’t like it. They refuse to book any film that doesn’t have a guaranteed four-month theatrical run.
If neither side climbs down, the 3D film will not play at any Odeon, Vue or Cineworld site across the country, representing 95% of the UK’s 3D screens.
