It is getting harder to find things which are actually new. Those ones that make you stop everything you are doing to log in to your blog and write your impressions about what you saw. Sharing has become a commodity. You have not even finished seeing something and you already share it. Sometimes you share without even seeing it.

I like the way they’ve created hype around the content by mirroring the offline cinema experience but i think the client may have panicked at the number of people being turned away because it’s now on every two hours… Still 230,000 people viewed on it’s first weekend so it’s doing better than a lot of offline movies.
