That's great news. I'll still have to wait until July 12 to watch it though as I live in the UK (or until July 14 on the Saturday). I'll be finishing college in a few weeks, so I might be able to go and watch on the opening day which will be great (although I'll probably end having to wait until my brother and sister finish school on the 13th. I can't wait to see this film. It's going to rock.

AWW! NO Fair! :( It should have been changed to thursday - same day as the UK release date! :( Aw why do the US get to see it a day earlier! That's so not fair :(
And why have they suddenly started changing the dates in the first place? I'd rather everyone watched it on July 13th rather than at different times.. hmph.. *not pleased* :-\

I'm a little conflicted over this. I am glad we will get to see the movie sooner. That is a big plus. However, a lot of my friends have jobs and have already booked the 13th off work. Also, will it be opeing worldwide on the 11th? Or just in certain countries?

Yay! How can we complain? That is good news. What is great about this is because the fifth movie and the DH book are spread out than one week after the other. That would give us Harry Potter heartattack. Well, maybe I'm over exaggerating but you all got the point.
Cheers!

I wonder why they changed it? Maybe it was just done before they thought it would be! Only a month and a week away!

I think it's very strange that US and Canada get to see the film before the UK. It is a British film, so why can't we get shown it on the 11th too?
PLus I think it's coming out in UK on the 12th, which is a Thursday, so I can see it then! My school breaks up the week before then!

That's a day earlier than the UK, i feel that this has only been done becuase WB don't want the US to be behind the UK even if it is a day!
Really, what was the point? The film isn't even American!

You know... I still don't like to believe that they've changed it to a Wednesday... I think it's stupid. I mean, yeah, I want to see the movie ASAP... but I don't think it's worth it.
