I am suspicious about what the studios think of this film otherwise they would try to slate it close to the July 4th weekend. Maybe a week or two ahead or behind Transformers release.
Why so far away? I naturally go to the pessimistic explanation but I was hoping the folks out there may have a better theory as to what's going on.
You have to take into account that the toylines for the movies are being released close to a month before the movie's release. Having both Transformers and G.I. Joe movie toys debut in the very same month might not work out well, not to mention, retailers may have space already planned for huge displays for other movie toy lines too, during the same time.
It's breathing room for the movies in a way too, having G.I. Joe and Transformers premiere in the same month might have a negative impact on sales for either movie, so a month in between is probably a well planned out idea.
