    Been Waiting for this to come out.
    So have I, and no doubt many others as well. Here's what is in the email I received today.
    We were only a week away from releasing our first trailer when the big world premiere at the Riverside Theater in Milwaukee had to be postponed.

    Since my last letter to you, the difficulties have continued behind the scenes. We are all facing challenges few could have imagined last year at this time. If it weren't for the heavy topic we're dealing with in this film, I would have postponed the launch entirely until next year and focused on supporting my family and colleagues during this difficult season.

    However, we believe this film has the ability to positively impact the lives of up to two billion people. The COVID-19 pandemic has only made this movie more needed.

    In order for it to have the impact we hope for, we must launch it in a notable way so it reaches beyond the Kickstarter backers and into conversations with the general public. This is why we were so focused on doing film festivals, big premieres, and conferences. We must create buzz before the movie is finally released to the public. Most big options go away once the movie is "out".

    After various starts/restarts/cancellations with film festivals and traditional premieres due to COVID-19, we've decided to shake things up a bit...

    Looks like a good watch, bookmarking this thread.

    Interesting fact - nicotine is one of a family of chemicals/drugs/poisons known as alkaloids including cocaine, caffeine, morphine, atropine strychnine and many many more...
    The name "alkaloids" (German: Alkaloide) was introduced in 1819 by the German chemist Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Meißner, and is derived from late Latin root alkali. Which, in turn comes from the Arabic al-qalwī meaning 'ashes of plants'.
    There is no unique method for naming alkaloids. Many individual names are formed by adding the suffix "ine" to the species or genus name.
    For example, atropine is isolated from the plant Atropa belladonna; strychnine is obtained from the seed of the Strychnine tree. Where several alkaloids are extracted from one plant their names are often distinguished by variations in the suffix: "idine", "anine", "aline", "inine" etc.

    Worth a read
    Alkaloid - Wikipedia

    And further research, the discovery of alkaloids was fundamental in the development of modern medicine.
