Remember when the Valentine's Day movie release tended to be something romantic, the kind of movie that would make a great date movie? Possibly with Hugh Grant in it?
Those days, friends, are long gone. This year, 20th Century Fox released A Good Day To Die Hard in time for February 14th, spoiling the day for any couples looking to see a good Die Hard movie for their big date night. Next year, meanwhile, we get The LEGO Movie. And in 2015? Universal has just shifted the enduring romance of 50 Shades Of Grey there.
The movie had been set to open against Marvel's Guardians Of The Galaxy on August 1st 2014, but it's now going to be out on February 13th 2015.
Moving into its place on August 1st 2014? That'd be the upcoming Jason Segel comedy, Sex Tape. Segel co-stars with Cameron Diaz in the movie, which is being directed by Jake Kasdan.
Promisingly, Scott Derrickson's new horror movie, Beware The Night, has also been moved forward the best past of six months to July 2nd 2014. Derrickson previously made Sinister, and the schedule shift is a sizeable vote of confidence in the movie. Could it repeat the commercial success enjoyed by The Conjuring in a summer slot this year? Quite possibly.
