Possible release dates for Batman Begins and The Goblet of Fire


Of course, take this with the appropriate amount of salt.

A poster at AVS who works in Best Buy said he saw this info on a special page put up today inside the Best Buy network itself.

16 Blocks - 6/13
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - 6/13
Syriana - 6/20
Dukes of Hazzard - 6/20
Harry Potter 4 - 6/20
and...
Batman Begins - 6/13

He said this is new info in their system as of today.

Hope it is true, no reason it can't be (we know they ARE coming sometime).

and there are many paths to tread
Through shadow, to the edge of night
until the stars are all alight
Mist and shadow, cloud and shade
all shall fade, all shall fade

Re: Possible release dates for Batman Begins and The Goblet of Fire


Given that Warner has been announcing these things at the last minute, it stands to reason that - if this IS official - we'll hear about it by Thursday.

What do you mean? Haven't you been following how messed up Warner Brothers has been as far as the window between announcing a title and the actual release date? There have been several instances in the last few weeks where it has been less than one week between announcement and release. About one week has been pretty typical.

Not saying I believe this info is definite. But that fact that June 13 is 8 days away doesn't mean much.

Edit: Ah, I see John beat me to it!

Re: Possible release dates for Batman Begins and The Goblet of Fire


I don't think anyone knew about Blazing Saddles and The Fugitive until 4 or 5 days before the release. As for Batman Begins, we've known it was coming since day 1, just not when.

Re: Possible release dates for Batman Begins and The Goblet of Fire


I dunno. Warner has been very good about getting review copies to me on the Friday a week before the release date, and I didn't get anything last week, which makes any 6/13 release seem unlikely to me--I still haven't received a review copy of anything after the ones released today.

Re: Possible release dates for Batman Begins and The Goblet of Fire




A fellow over at AVS had Best Buy pull up this info and printed it out for him.

I hope those dates hold, but it does say dates are subject to change. if so, hopefully the releases aren't changed by more than a week or so.

They have Happy Gilmore and The Rundown listed as June 6, but I think they are now coming on the 13th. Is that right?

So again, take the info as possible release dates, but clearly nothing is set in stone.

Of course, these titles are supposed to be out either way, so they ARE coming.

Re: Possible release dates for Batman Begins and The Goblet of Fire


Awesome, Sean--thank you. Always nice to see internal documents.

Most of those dates have been fairly accurate, yes?

Yeah, Stiffler & The Rock and Sandler are now next Tuesday, not today.

Interesting tidbits at the bottom: HD DVD gets bumped and Blu-ray will become the endcap upon launch.

Re: Possible release dates for Batman Begins and The Goblet of Fire


Batman Begins will not be out next week. By the end of the month, maybe, but not next week. It is only now being pressed.

Goblet of Fire is ready to go whenever Warner decides to ship it.
