Paramount Bumps Up 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' Release Date

Well, it worked with the first two, so why stop now? Deadline reports that Paramount Pictures has officially moved up the release date for 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' from its original Friday, July 1, date to Wednesday, June 29. Doesn't come as much of surprise since Paramount did the same thing with 'Transformers' and 'Revenge of the Fallen,' but aside from being a clear ploy to turn this into the biggest cash cow of year, it's a pretty smart move; 'Cars 2' opens one week prior on June 24, and 'Harry Potter and the Death Hallows, Part 2' follows two weeks later on July 15.

They Walk: Disney Releases Poster for 'The Muppets'

t's been way too many years since the Muppets have graced the big screen -- 11 and a half to be exact -- but all that will be remedied in November when Disney (which owns so many franchises it's getting impossible to keep track of them, from the Muppets to Pooh to Marvel) brings 'The Muppets' to theaters everywhere. Though the release date is six months away, the folks at Disney have graced us with a poster hyping the Nov. 23 debut of the film.

What do you see in the kinda creepy poster featuring the Muppets standing around in a pose that's a cross between 'The X-Files' and 'Law & Order: Special Victims Unit'? Feet. Hot dawg, the Muppets have feet. Is this a harbinger of the CGI Muppet world to come -- or just artistic license for the poster? We won't know until he first trailers and teasers begin to trickle out. In the meantime, check out the Disney-provided synopsis below, and then the poster after the jump.

The slow, tender track, which is currently streaming on the group's publicity website, finds the trio preaching the power of a simple goodnight kiss between a new couple.
