Not sure what to make of last week's announcement that Walt Disney Pictures was pushing back the release date of "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" ? Join the club.
People all over Hollywood are trying to figure out why the Mouse moved this highly anticipated Jerry Bruckheimer production out of its previously announced June 16, 2009 slot. Opting instead to push the release of "POP : TSOT" back to May 28, 2010.
