Disney Moves Up ANT-MAN's Release Date

It seems Disney have enough faith in Edgar Wright's Ant-Man to officially make it a Summer release. The flick was originally set for November 6, 2015, but now it will hit on July 31, 2015. The new date means it'll no longer face competition from Bond 24, but, it will find itself smack bang in the third week of Batman/Superman's run! Aside from a few vague hints from the director, we really don't know too much about this one yet, and there haven't even been any solid casting rumors so far -- but expect that to change pretty soon. Who would you like to see shrink down in 2015?

So, "Moving up" means it comes early. Okay, gotta try to remember that. It always confuses me.

blackjack- people can see both and if word of mouth and the trailers look good people will go, it also kind of depends on how guardians trailers and response for the movie and box office so maybe that will be able to gauge for ant man

I think the GA member will see the Marvel logo and see it no matter what. The Fact that it is coming out sooner just means we dont have to wait as long to see Pymm! It is going to hurt that Superman/Batman is out bc ill see that about 1000 times. Im just glad our comics are making all of the big strides on the silver screen these days.

blackjack- lets hope it works, i want all the superhero films to succeed plus if guardians and this succeed, it will show dc and marvel that there lesser characters can work of they can do them right.

Was waiting for this. Right after AoU seems good, Bats/Supes 3rd shouldnt matter that much. I think AoU will give it big enough lead in

Now this is definitely gonna be Marvel's first flop. Seriously, three weeks after a Batman movie?!?! Hopefully Marvel knows what they are doing.

blackjack- idk if disney would want their biggest brands going against each other so they might move pirates up or back and plus marvels been chugging in the cash for them while depps lastest association with them tanked.

banesmash- what do you mean by that?

blackjack- i think they might know that it probably wont make iron man numbers but it will be successful atleast

OH snap! marvel shittin on WBs with this one! I have a feeling Antman has a bit more to do with age of ultron than we think. Marvel's going in for the kill with this one.

ezio619 - 9/9/2013, 4:49 PM
blackjack- from what i understand of movie business is that if you move it back, then it means the studio does not have confidence in it but if you move it up they have alot of confidence in it.

Just because a film cares a logo means nothing. If it was true, every Disney film would be great.

How's Planes doing?

Wtf is wrong with you?

Levi

Not sure if joking or not but you were the main person making fun of the fact it's going against bond, but now you call them pussies? Lol

And what do you guys mean Marvel has to lower thier expectations? Shouldn't EVERY studio have high expectations for thier movies? WTF?

Some of you are too stupid.

But I do think Marvel should of had Ant-Man come out in April or May. Batman/Superman'll crusts it.

Boy that would be embarassing if Bats and Supes, after 3 weeks, beats ol' Antie in it's opening week.
Not hating, just sayin

Well I would have gave them the props of going up against Bond.

Instead they have to face off with Pirates, Batman/Superman, and Smurfs.

That's worst in a way. Last 2 Pirates made billion each, Superman/Batman will make a billion, and kids love those Smurf bastards.

*just thought about who it's facing in July*

Oooh shit!!!
