Quantum release delayed one week

Source: MI6.co.ukQuantum of Solace

Now that the next "Harry Potter" installment won't be opening at Thanksgiving, Sony and MGM have jumped on the chance to bow the new James Bond film "Quantum Solace" a week later than planned. "Quantum of Solace" will be released on in the USA on November 14th, instead of November 7th, reports Variety. Bond titles have traditionally opened the weekend before Thanksgiving, but "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Price" had been set to open Nov. 21. It's been pushed back until July.

"We believe Nov. 14 is a great date that allows us to play straight through Thanksgiving and right into Christmas," Sony chair of worldwide marketing and distribution Jeff Blake said. "We believe this decision will give the public a wider opportunity to see the film over the holiday."

"Quantum Solace" returns Daniel Craig to the bigscreen as James Bond. In its new date, "Quantum Solace" goes up against 20th Century Fox's Nicole Kidman-Hugh Jackman epic "Australia," from director Baz Luhrmann, Universal comedy "Role Models" and MGM comedy "Soul Men."

The UK release date of October 31st is not currently affected by this change.

this totally sucks. I don't know another way to put it. I had a special weekend out of town that fully included the Friday night opening. Major bummer.
