Not sure about moving Into the Blue into the heart of the summer. Zathura is trying to follow Elf and Polar Express, having a Thanksgiving release instead of Christmas.

If March 30th is a Wednesday, my first question is... why? What exactly is the point of making Beauty Shop a 5-day release?

It might be because April 1st has two higher profile films, The Weatherman and Sin City both opening.

That is most likely the case. Studio is trying to sqeeze a little extra out of it, even though it plays to a different demographic then The Weatherman or Sin City. I predict it will follow a similar pattern as Johnson Family Vacation with perhaps a higher total.

Interesting.
Could this be the first film to bomb twice?
Stay tuned...

 This re-release makes no sense. I doubt they will get any theaters to accept it.

They could be trying to get Nicole Kidman a push for best actress nod.

I dunno, Nicole Kidman's performance has actually been getting better critical love then I expected. She WAS nominated for a Golden Globe. I guess Fine Line would really love a Best Actress nomination, which is possible as this year's batch of contenders is a lot weaker then some of the past years.

I don't think best actress buzz can carry it especially given that there is little interest from audiences to see it in the first place. GONY and M&C were hardly able to get a few million more with best picture noms, among many others. Much less awards buzz for a film with much less appeal = zero BO (or close to it).

Can you guys tell me where you get release date change information from?
Or do you just check over all of them to see if there are differences?

Well, maybe I can catch Birth when it is re-released, as I missed it the first time around. I agree though, it is probably to capitalize on possible Oscar nods, although it likely won't bring in a great deal of additional money. Of course, a few million more is still a few million more then it has made thus far.

Well this was unexpected. I guess it might help for a nomination but won't bring in more than maybe a million or two.

Honestly, I hardly check that section. I know I should do it more often, but you know...

Zathura is a semi-sequel to Jumanji directed by Favreau (Elf). It's target is kids and families.
It's going to have a tough time against Goblet of Fire, Lion Witch & Wardrobe and King Kong... no matter where it moves.
