I don't understand... Why would they do that? Do they want the movie to bomb? {nm}

V: Sony has moved The Night Before [XMAS] forward five days to November 20 and will now face HGAM4 FabioParme Sep 29, 21:13

They couldn't wait any longer for North Korea to get its act together {nm} RamsFan2004 Sep 30, 05:59

the problem with releasing a film over Thanksgiving is that the following two weeks are typically awful. Opening early, islander Sep 30, 06:04

Yeah but this is the final Hunger Games right?? {nm} Dorfman Sep 30, 06:34

either way, theres no good date with that and star wars, all the films might as well give it up til 2016 {nm} islander Sep 30, 06:41

Counter programming on xmas day could have worked especially with the plot {nm} RamsFan2004 Sep 30, 07:00

But after dec 26, who wants to see a Christmas movie? {nm} islander Sep 30, 07:08

Ukranian Christmas is January 07, 2016 with Jan. 07 - 14 being a Festive Week. Captain Obvious Sep 30, 07:13

With star wars in town, it's gonna be hard to open period {nm} RamsFan2004 Sep 30, 07:14

I don't think there's a lot of audience overlap between XMAS and HGAM4. And it's normal for Christmas movies to get a November release. RogerMore Sep 30, 08:01

Lots of adults like Hunger Games too. Think this is a mistake. MiyazakiFan Sep 30, 08:07

I think XMAS is aimed at a particular segment of the adult audience that is not so much into Hunger Games. RogerMore Sep 30, 08:31

I'd be part of that segment. Though I don't miss college, and I'm 37. lol {nm} Dorfman Sep 30, 14:16

Problem is, all the studios want to get "their" big movie out for the holidays, and it's always a crowded time... {nm} Flash Sep 30, 08:06

You have to remember that, even if a film does $100m opening weekend, that only represents... EdwardHavens Sep 30, 13:09
