Earlier this year I was a bit disappointed that the French got to see Iron Man first before we did because it opened there a few days before it got released nationwide here in the U.S.
Now James Bond is taking similar method but through different detour.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, QUANTUM OF SOLACE will open in theaters in England first on October 31st, 2008 and then will open in India on November 7th, 2008 and then finally… the film will open in U.S. theaters on Nov. 14th, 2008.
The move by Sony marks the first time that a major U.S. film has opened in India before hitting theaters Stateside.
As you probably remember, the change of the release date of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince from this November to next summer caused many movies to change their release dates too including QUANTUM SOLACE from Nov. 7th to Nov. 14th
I never thought India would grab the previous date though.
Would you fly to England and India to catch an early screening of QUANTUM OF SOLACE?
Which movie would you be willing to do that for? That probably would make you the craziest American movie fan ever.
