Ok, I’m just being a smart ass with the title. As you know, I put up a post yesterday with a prediction that Paramount would movie the release date of Transformers off of the July 4th weekend. The main reason for this is that it would be a smart move. As you know, I think Transformers could break opening weekend box office records… but that will never happen if it opens on the exact same day as Die Hard 4.
Tarnsformers will make FAR more money than Die Hard 4… but the reality is that Die Hard 4 will still make a butt load of cash, and take away some of the Transformers revenue. A simple move like moving Transformers off the date would solve that. But it appears my prediction that Paramount would move the release date was dead dead wrong.
This morning I got a call from Paramount asking me “who told you we were changing dates???” So there you have it. Transformers is NOT moving off the July 4th release date… even though they SHOULD.
See kiddies… when I’m wrong, I’ll put up a whole post to admit it, ;)
