Ironic blog redesign.

You may have noticed the blog has a new look. This was not intentional but worked out. I had noticed when I embedded YouTube videos they always seemed to be cut off at the side. The new wide screen format wasn't translating properly. I started looking around at how to fix it and discovered that you could change the look of the blog. As it so happens the one I choose looks very similar to the new look of the Western Film website. I was quite happy.

New Feature on Coming Soon page of website.

I get a lot of people asking whether we are going to play particular films. Mostly the smaller films that didn't play in the first run theatres. Sometimes it's a film that playing at another theatre and the person wants to know if they can wait until it comes here or should go see it there.

In response I added something new to the bottom of the coming soon page of the website. A list of films and their status as to whether they will play at Western Film. There's 4 categories, Will Play, Will Probably play, will Probably Not play and Won't play. Films will likely move around between categories as time goes on, mostly down the list.

Some people will probably want to know whether films that have just come out or are going to come out soon will play so they know whether they should wait. I'm not listing films like that since it's too hard to know until we see how the critics and audience respond to the film. I had fully planned to play Cloverfield until it came out.

Hopefully I won't get in the situation where a film I listed as Will Play doesn't for some reason. You'll notice that list is pretty small.
