Marketing Bullshit

No no, it's not from Apple this time.

"'Pink Panther' delayed to 2006"

Hahahahahaha. A film nobody wanted remade has been pushed until February 2006 because "With the recent acquisition of MGM, we wanted to give our marketing department the time and opportunity to launch this very important franchise," Sony Pictures Releasing president Rory Bruer said. "We've seen the movie, and we really love this film. It's a franchise we believe in and are really excited about, and Steve Martin is great as Clouseau."

Liars! Films that suck are released in February. Films the studio would rather you not know about are released in February.

"Other pictures scheduled for release February 10 are New Line Cinema's "Just Friends," a romantic comedy starring Ryan Reynolds and Amy Smart, and Universal's "Curious George," an animated film version of the perennial children's classic starring Will Ferrell and Drew Barrymore."

I rest my case.
