Weirdly it wasn't announced for the London Film Festival. If it will be released in the U.K. until next year it will be out of the BAFTA awards so it's very weird. It still could be the "surprise" movie of the festival. Other (my own) theories: Weinstein really has financial problems; he has a new award strategy or he plans more changes ahead (a la buying some hit in another festival like it happened with Philomena to be his new favorite) There are lots of movies that weren't chosen. Look at the names on this tweet.

Maybe I'm wrong and I'm not understanding something but I think I just read a "professional" Internet movie critic saying Alicia Vikander shouldn't had won her Oscar for The Danish Girl and that Jennifer Jason-Leigh should and then suggesting she won thanks to category fraud orchestrated by "Harvey"! Even when The Danish Girl was a Focus Feature movie and it was Jason-Leigh the one in a movie distributed by the Weinstein! LOL They just blame all wins they don't like to the Weinsteins! Citizen Kane lost to How Green was my Valley! Of course, that's what Harvey do! His dirty campaign against poor Orson was so cruel. He practically destroyed his reputation presenting him like an arrogant fat rude kid who doesn't respect anyone or anything; Remember when Martin lost to "film director" Kevin Costner! Yeah! That was Harvey forcing the wolves to go to the Academy members' houses to wash their cars and doing housework! The bastard!

Hahaha! I'm fine with Harvey's dirty tactics as long as he orchestrates BC an Oscar! (Kidding!)

Where is that trailer? I'm dying over here! Apparently they are showing it right now with The Tulipan Fever. The trailers account says it's weird studios not releasing it online at the same time but IMO it's common. Or at least it was until very recently! Maybe tonight with more American people in home spending non-working time on Internet.

I think it is being released in theatres with other movies as well. This guy went to see Close Encounters and saw it.
What does a lot mean? He wrote that Darkest hours looked good.
Another opinion

Those are weird comments to make about a trailer! "I might regret saying this, but..." - why would anyone regret saying a trailer looked good? I would reserve that kind of comment for an Adam Sandler movie trailer, if I ever lost my mind and thought one of his movies looked good.

Seeing his profile it seems he is one of those movie awards fans so I guess it's not cool to show interest for something that could end be the "wrong" kind of award movie. Most people would say I liked the trailer but not the movie after watching it. There's nothing to regret...maybe the ticket price! 😉 But not the opinion about the trailer. You are not obligated to like the movie because you liked the ad.

Strange comments there indeed! The "a lot" one isn't clear but is clearly not good, and the other thinks he has to actually apologise for going against what he seems to think will be the preferred perception by those he's expecting to see it(?). If he's indeed one of those Awardswatch people, though, that would explain it.
Beyond TCW not being included in the LFF, though, is that "The Darkest Hour" is purportedly excluded too! That seems just unfathomable! It's an almost certain Oscar contending film (Gary Oldman at least), and the LFF isn't even showing it??? Is it certain all the films have been declared? Otherwise, all I can think is that there's some peculiar thinking (other issues) going on behind the scenes.

Well, someone liked the trailer despite...whatever and the other "a lot". Maybe we should wait to watched ourselves!
