Re: Weekend Box Office (6/24-6/26): Cars 2 finishes first
I noticed GL isn't opening in a lot of countries until July/August/September. Is that a situation where WB has been paid distribution rights up front? If so, has that already been factored into the worldwide sales? Or will worldwide sales reflect those pushed released dates, even though WB doesn't receive those funds with the distribution sales off the books to the general public?

Regardless, I'm glad to hear plans for a sequel are moving ahead. Too often reboots are the quick solution with poor results. I think it's not only more cost effective to go with a sequel with original members, but also allows you to rework and build on what was successful.
