Hum... But it messes up the Holiday trade for the 4th quarter of 
this year for everyone, including WB. Movies during the Holiday 
shopping period is a big thing and WB plans the movies then for that 
reason. I checked with Scholastic and they do not have any 
merchandise, like coloring books, movie poster books, etc. for the 
movie and they would have had them now if the movie was planned for 
November. Makes me wonder how long WB KNEW that they were not going 
to release the movie this year. I think there is a Death Eater 
working for them.

Like I said before, I hate WB!!! A dragon-pox upon them!!
