It seems Warner Bros. has been busy rearranging their calendar as of late.
ERC Box Office is reporting that Warner has announced a slew of release dates, most notably a December 17, 2010 release date for
Green Lantern. The site is also reporting that, while the title character hasn't been cast, the studio is eyeing up Martin Campbell (
Casino Royale) to direct the superhero film.
The studio also announced a July 15, 2011 release date for
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II, which is the same date already chosen by Marvel for
The Avengers. Warner Bros. also moved Guy Ritchie's
Sherlock Holmes to Christmas Day 2009, from an originally-planned November 13 release.
Other release dates set were Louis Leterrier's
Clash of the Titans on March 26, 2010, Christopher Nolan's
Inception on July 16, 2010,
Jonah Hex on August 6, 2010 and Zack Snyder's recently-announced
Sucker Punch on October 8, 2010.

I'm seeing Watchmen in 2 days BABY!
Then July 29th or 28th, The Avengers blasts in the cinemas for to dominate the cinemas once again. Thus giving everyone a chance to see both.
And yes Vamp; I'll definitely see them both opening day!
HP has priority, but I'm sure one or both will be bumped to the Wednesday before the fifteenth.
I think people grow out of dressing like the Avengers after a while (or not, in the case of some of the virgins) but sadly, there are adults who haven't read anything but children's escapist fantasy (Harry Potter, Twilight) for the bulk of their lives.
I agree though, Marvel should pump it out a week later to have a go at knocking Harry Potter off the chart.
I read the Harry Potter books, and I've read the Avengers for a long time, and I guess I feel that the Avengers first live action outing is more important than some lanky English wizard's last.
Btw escapist, as much as I'd love to see an Avengers movie, Harry Potter is one of thee most profitting movie franchises to date. So with that being said, yeah they will work AROUND the cash cow lol.
GREAT YEARS OF FILM and I HOPE IT WILL BE MY YEAR OF GETTING NOTICED,SOMEHOW.
I can't wait for any of these...well, I don't give a rat's ass about Harry Potter, but the rest I am majorly excited for lol
