Potter Fan’s Get the Shaft

In recent news it was announced that the 6th Installment of the Harry Potter movie series was going to be moved back to a summer schedule slot (It was going to be released this winter). Apparently, so many Potter fans wrote in protest that the CEO of Warner Brothers reassured all of them that this was a good thing because the 7th Installment would be closer to the 6th.

Now, doesn’t that make you feel better kids? Go along and play nice now.

Seriously, did this guy actually think that kind of reasoning was going to help the situation? Using some kind of weird “mom” logic on the people who were about to give him lots of money. It doesn’t really matter anyway. He knows he owns them with this series. He knows they will go to the movie even if he moved it back another two years. The only way that that would change is if they protested the film and didn’t go see it at the summer slot.

I’ll be totally honest, if that happened, I would be so happy. Hollywood so takes advantage of the fact that people are lemmings and will follow whatever doom may be at their feet. Sigh.
