Summer theater visits are made for a few things for me. Massive blockbuster popcorn flicks, and of course Disney’s latest offering from Pixar.
Summer 2011 will have to make due without the charmed animation studio as they have now announced their planned release of Cars 2 will be bumped to December 2011!
Walt Disney has announced a release date change for Cars 2, from June 24th, 2011 to December of 2011. The announcement came during the company’s first quarter earnings call on Tuesday, and it’s the third release date the film has been given so far (after originally posting a 2012 date, then moving to summer 2011)
Shuffling Cars2 to another timeslot will leave a late June vacancy one week after Green Lantern and a week before Transformers 3, so it is unclear as to who would jump on that new open spot. Could be suicide, but it could be a green parking spot.
I am not that excited for a Cars 2 (would rather an Incredibles 2) but the Holiday Season is as good as any to see a Pixar film.
