“Fountain” Gets Bumped Back a Month
“Fountain” Gets Bumped Back a Month
“Generally when a movie gets “bumped back,” it’s a bad sign. But when a studio pushes a flick closer to Award-Bait Season, it’s usually a sign of confidence. (Or wishful thinking.) Anyway, those of us who can’t wait to see Darren Aronofsky’s “The Fountain” will simply have to wait … an extra month.
New Release date: Nov 22
I have a warm fuzzy feeling that the fountain is gonna make a splash (no pun intended) come Oscar Season….
For the uninitiated, there is usually an Oscar Season, somewhere near the Oct-Nov-Dec months where the studios will push out films that they think might stand a chance at the Oscars. It does not mean that a film that is released then is a surefire win; most notably last year’s Best Picture Winner Crash was released a few months before the traditional Oscar-Bait Season.
Oh yeah, The Fountain’s trailer can be found here.
