Postponed. I was going to the screener a week from next Monday but got the cancellation this morning. This has been a rough Friday the 13th (see http://www.brotherhoodofdoom.com/doomFor...4#pid36474) My Spy got postponed too, but they went ahead with the screener last week (I didn't bother). This is the first time I got a cancellation like this - it was basically the invite with all the text crossed through headed with a sentence on top saying all screeners are cancelled. I'm sure the promo group is hurting too.
I almost went with this for the Spring KFTC cover. I reached out to a Disney rep but they didn't follow through. It would've been a last minute change, so I wrote half the cover story, but then shifted it to my Fast Forward to the Fight Scenes column. Glad that cover fell through. There's still a large cover blurb and three pages of column, but I can recycle that for the web when the time comes, whenever that might be. But still, a waste of a good cover blurb. I was planning to do more online coverage - maybe interview my dear friend Mimi (body double for the original animated version) or even HK. Glad I didn't move on that either. Talk about a misfire.
They already held the premiere in LA. Advanced reviews are very positive.
