RocknRolla Too English For Warner Bros
Sometimes I feel like the American Film Industry needs a good kick in the balls.
Seriously, how fucking stupid can they be.
Guy Ritchie’s RocknRolla, starring Gerard Butler and Thandie Newton, is due for release by Warner Bros in October in the States. However, producer Joel Silver is out and about shopping it to studios such as Lionsgate and Sony ( Read more... )

To answer your question: Very stupid!
I saw that news article at several Gerard Butler sites. I think it's a terrible mistake. I've also signed two petitions urging Warner Bros. to release this movie. It is supposed to open on 3 October in three large US cities and on 31 October in more theatres. I hope it still will.
Warner Bros. is really crazy. They also have moved the release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince from November to next July !! Ackkk!

I hope the movie is a bog hit for some other studio so WB can see what a big mistake they made.
Really!? Why? I mean unless the movie production itself is actually delayed there is no good reason for them to do that.

Warner Bros. is making a boatload of money on The Dark Knight, but because of the strikes, they don't have a blockbuster to release next summer. That seems to be the reason for the move to July, 2009. Others think Warner Bros. doesn't want a conflict with Dan doing Equus in NYC at the same time the movie would be playing. Personally, I think it's all about money and Warner's business plan.
Someone just told me that Twilight has been moved from 12 December to the November date that was supposed to be Harry Potter. That would be good news. I'll have to check and see if it's true.

That would be great if Twilight could get an earlier release. Hopefully the other countries will follow, putting it in Potter's spot. It's supposed to be released 13 February 2009 here.

Since it's going to premiere here 21 November instead of in December, hopefully it will be shown a little sooner in Norway, too. But I have no idea if that will happen. I guess you'll have to check the place where you get release information for Norway and see if the date changes.
Did Breaking Dawn arrive while you were in Poland? Have you started reading it yet?

I'm looking forward to the Twilight movie, but trying to keep my expectations as low as possible.
I'm hoping it will. I guess if it took the Potter date over here as well I guess we'd either get it in November like you guys, or December. I doubt they'll do anything over here though.
I did get it, and I've finished reading it.
What did you think of it?
I seem to be among the minority that liked it.

Oh! I absolutely loved it! I know there are people who didn't like certain parts and there were some parts I thought could have been better, but overall, I thought it was wonderful. I think the only thing I really didn't like was the name Renesmee. LOL I know Stephenie Meyer was trying to honor Bella's and Edward's mothers, but that name is simply awful.
I don't know if I should mention very much here because there may be people who read your LJ and don't want to see spoilers.
