Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Delayed Until 2009
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Warner Bros, Adaptation, Adventure, Science Fiction, Sequels, Upcoming Releases

Now this is what I call a tease.
After being shown the best Harry Potter trailer to date, Warner Bros. has cruelly pulled the rug out from under eager fans. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, originally scheduled for a Nov. 21 release, will now debut next July.
According to Alan Horn, Warner’s chief operating officer, the surprising decision was the result of the lengthy writers’ strike. Due to production delays, the studio doesn’t foresee having other blockbusters ready in time for the upcoming summer season.

Valkryie Will Debut in 2008
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: MGM, Action, Drama, Period, Upcoming Releases

Okay, this is just getting ridiculous. Believe it or not, Valkyrie has just now been given its fourth - and supposedly final - release date.
The movie, which blamed production issues and marketing reasons for the constant delays, was last scheduled to open on Feb. 13, 2009. (The other two dates previously mentioned were June 27, 2008 and October 3, 2008.) Now, thanks to a favorable screening, the WWII drama is being given a space on the holiday calendar.
So when will Valkryie open now? December 26, 2008. (Make sure to mark that down in pencil.)

Prince of Persia Gets Pushed Back
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Disney, Adaptation, Adventure, Period, Filmmaking, Upcoming Releases

In hopes of creating another successful franchise, Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer have made the decision to delay their next joint feature.
Originally scheduled for next June, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time has been pushed back a whole year. It’s believed this calendar shift will give the crew more time to perfect the post-production work necessary for the video game adaptation.
As a bonus, the change of date will allow Persia to avoid the premiere of Transformers 2 on June 26. (This is, of course, assuming Shia LaBeouf’s injuries allow that movie to even stay on track.)
Jake Gyllenhaal and his princely hair will now arrive in theaters on Memorial Day weekend 2010.

Tom Cruise’s Strangely Missing Accent
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: MGM, Action, Drama, Period, Political, Celebrity Gossip, Trailers, Upcoming Releases

After viewing a teaser trailer for Valkyrie, I now see why Tom Cruise’s film may be in need of a few delays.
In this WWII movie, the actor plays Col. Claus von Stauffenberg - a German officer who plots to take down Adolf Hitler. Granted, I haven’t seen the film yet, but I highly doubt the character ever took voice lessons by watching videos of Mission Impossible.
You can listen to his laughable performance after the jump.
