Harry Potter and the Half-Hearted Studio

Well, it seems that Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is going to be delayed by about 8 months. It was originally scheduled to open really close to my wife’s birthday, so she’s NOT going to be happy about this.

The studio’s main reason is because they want a guaranteed summer blockbuster in 2009. Oh yeah, and they threw a little blame at the writers’ strike, too. You know, because the studio heads are classy like that.

  3. @Jacob Kelly:
    Yup - 7 books, 7 movies (or, apparently, 8 movies? They may split the last one into two).

    If they split the last book into two movies, I’m fine with that if it keeps it closer to the book verison.

    I’m bummed I have to wait longer to see the new movie. All my birthday plans are ruined. :-(
