I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I also don't see the point. It can have a bigger opening weekend if it is just released on November 19.

I don't like it. There is a reason most movies like this go wide all at once.

I think its an interesting release change. I think a smarter move would have been to release in just a few theaters (3-4) for the first weekend, like some Disney movies in the past have.

Awesome. I can see it earlier now.

However, I'm not sure the move would have any effect on the box office.

They are using Love Actually's strategy for it. It opened in about 500 screens against The Matrix Revolutions last year before it went wide. That should be a good strategy, in my opinion.
