The biggest deal of the past seven days has seen independent operation Go Entertain become part of Litebulb Group plc. Alongside this we have an amazing PR campaign in place – people just want to keep talking about 12 Years A Slave! This will mean we can deliver saturation publicity across all media.” All of this retailer support will be backed up with an event status above the line campaign, with a heavyweight presence across TV, large format digital outdoor, extensive press advertising, display and pre-roll. We are thrilled to be working with Waitrose and the Co-op and 12 Years A Slave will be stocked nationwide by these stores. We couldn’t have done this without the support of all the retailers – they have been amazing at recognising that the film appeals to a wide target market and by working closely with them we have ensured a fantastic presence across the retail landscape from HMV and the grocers to more non-traditional outlets. This really is going to be an event status release for eOne and I am extremely pleased with how the campaign has shaped up. The film has now grossed over £20m at the UK box office - outperforming all expectations and the amazing word of mouth has continues as we gear up for the home entertainment release.

As the company’s Jeff Suter said: “We are delighted with the success of 12 Years A Slave so far. And the company is planning to confer event status on the film on its release. Chief among these is 12 Years A Slave, this year’s big awards winner due from eOne on May 12. The year thus far has seen hit after hit arriving in store and more will follow in May. Following the huge theatrical success, we are very excited to continue building the Lego universe this summer and again at Christmas.”

Commenting on the release, Warner’s Sarah Craig said: “We’re delighted to announce the home entertainment release of The Lego Movie on 21st July preceded with a two week Digital EST window. The summer release date means retailers will get another bite of the cherry come Q4. SKUs include Blu-ray 3D, standard Blu-ray and DVD, all with UltraViolet copies. The film, a genuine phenomenon among kids and a cult favourite among older viewers, will make its physical bow on July 21, following on from a July 7 digital release. We are, of course, referring to The Lego Movie, the mere mention of which has almost everyone we know bursting into impromptu choruses of Everything Is Awesome. You can certainly see the supertanker origins in the model.It’s already notched up one of the biggest hits of the year with The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug and Warner has this week unveiled the release date for one of the year’s biggest openers and theatrical performers thus far, with a whopping £32 million taken at cinemas so far). This was to give a reason for Godzilla to attack the vessel, being that he was after the fish. Originally in the script this vessel was going to be a supertanker and construction had already started when the production decided to change it to some form of fish processor. The sequence was shot at 120 frames per second The model's support rig was hydraulically operated to effect the rapid roll effect caused by the as yet unseen monster. Black garden soaker hoses with compressed air fed to them were employed to produce fine bubbles around the hull to produce a scale wake. Because the model was just over half the length of the tank it was decided to fix the model in place and simulate motion by moving water past it with underwater pumps. The miniature was shot in a tank built for Titanic (1997) called the Acton tank located in the Californian desert and about 60 feet square (18m).

The first miniature we see in the movie is a 1/15th scale 35 foot long (10.6m) Japanese fish factory ship built by Cinnabar. The Miniature Visual Effects Supervisor was Don Baker with Anna Foerster the Visual Effects Director of Photography. The Visual Effects Supervisor was Volker Engel with a company set up to oversee all the miniature work on the film called Sight Line Productions. I think this may be one of the last big movies to predominantly use miniatures over CGI and for that reason alone gets my vote as the best 'western' Godzilla movie ever made.
