Dick and Jane pushed back to December!
Sony is making a change in its own summer lineup, shifting the comedy remake "Fun With Dick and Jane," starring Jim Carrey and Tea Leoni, to Dec. 21 from June 25.
"We were rushing to make the June 24 date," Sony vice chairman Jeff Blake said. "We felt our next best stop is the Christmas holiday, given how well broad comedies have performed recently over that period."
Most recently, the Dec. 22 release "Meet the Fockers" collected $70.5 million during its first five days, on the way to a $265.3 million (and counting) domestic gross.
On its new date, "Dick and Jane" will now go head-to-head with Universal's "The Producers" and Warner Bros. Pictures' "Rumor Has It," the Jennifer Aniston film that takes its inspiration from "The Graduate."

Date change, good idea!
As much as I would like to see it sooner, I believe the change is a good
idea. But we shall see next Dec.

i guess if they need more time to finish the movie... then they need to move the date back... i mean you cant exactly release an unfinished movie.... but yeah it will suck to have to wait until december... i mean i had to wait until december last year for lemony snicket because i found out about that movie like christmas 2003.... this kind of sucks how his movies are like a year apart.... but oh well... it will be worth the wait

yeah it really stinks when movies are pushes back to december dates...i feel like they just make no money because everyone is so swept up in christmas that no one goes to the movies and so unless it is a really good movie that it makes no money.... i like to see his movies do well but i dont want this one to fail badly..... Lemony Snicket's didnt do so hot in the box office and it was a december release..... so i just dont like this one bit
Im So Sad!
"Fun With Dick and Jane" was supposed to come out The day of my birthday, June 25, It was supposed to be a great birthday present from Jim Carrey!.. haha!.. but now im sad.. i have to wait LONGER and i dont get a birthday present.... "tear"

But, at least its still coming out!
