See you next year...

Dearest Cinema Campus members,

You may have noticed that there are no more posts after Tim Burton week. What happens next? How can we go on living without Cinema Campus in the world?! Don't panic!! We are just taking a little break over Christmas and New Year (along with the rest of the country) and will be back in January with Roald Dahl week. Roald Dahl! What fun :)

So keep checking the website for more information and please come along to the last screenings of 2010 where will be avoiding the Christmas spirit by indulging in creepy stop-motion animation instead.

With much niceness,

Alana and Erica
