The next "Harry Potter" film, "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," will no longer be released on its scheduled date of Nov. 21. While this news was devastating, I consoled my anguish with the hope that it was only pushed back a month or two.
Alas, we will not be able to watch Daniel Radcliffe defeat dark wizards with the flick of a wand until July 17, 2009. That's right; Warner Brothers Inc. wanted to improve its release schedule for the summer market and used the lame excuse that the writers' strike, which ended many moons ago, had "impacted the readiness of scripts for other films." Warner Bros. is no fool. They know movies earn more in the box office during the summer months, so they chose to torture Harry Potter fans everywhere with this recent change of plans. Jerks.
