Harry Potter and Half-Blood Prince: Delayed

Harry Potter movie franchise and book fans alike, feel sad about the sudden covering of 'invisibility cloak' of the movie from its release this November. Instead the Warner Bros., the movie franchise owner, have decided to remove the cloak on July 17. 2009. Yeah, eight months of delay (almost a baby).

Hmmm, some people said it was because of the footprints the writer's leave after they strike, some said it was because of the Dark Knight (which was also distributed by the Warner Bros.), smashing the records after records making it in no. 2 spot in the highest-grossing film next to Titanic. But according to Alan Horn, the Warner Bros. President and chief operating officer, it was just that summer is the best time to put it on the golden screen. This proves, because of the last franchise which was the Order of the Phoenix just pulled out $292 million released last July 11. Hmmm, very logical indeed. Well, a bit disappointing for fans who have watched the trailers and raised the impressions in Youtube, why just play it on the Christmas holidays, that would be the best gift, ever.
