Is WB desperate?

Is it my imagination or does anyone smell the reek of WB desperation?  The Publicity department is working overtime (more than previous HP movies?) ... there have been an avalanche of interviews, contests, and promos (print & TV)lately ... LOTS of promotional activity meant to rejuvinate interest in HBP.  

I know that I am still going to see HBP but I'm just not as excited as I usually am a week before a new HP movie opens. 
Shoot, I drove 10 hours just to take my nephew to the midnight opening of GoF! 

Could WB be trying to make-up for having made that horrible decision to delay the opening of the movie? And now they they are in a flop sweat because of that decision? (I am still ticked because of it)

I know that Summit productions is VERY happy that they(WB) did it because "Twilight" really benefited from that decision! Now, don't get me wrong, I think that Twilight would have been a tremendous success anyway. I just wonder how many Harry fans went to see Twilight to soften the blow of being HP-deprived? ... I did and I'm not a hormonal teenaged girl.

Just Wondering,
Cat
