The assumption is they are delaying this because of the sniper in DC. If that's true, then we also assume the studio has ethics. WHOOOA!! IT CAN'T BE!!

Wonders never cease.

A eerie case of art imitating life. Or is that the other way around?

Don't be so optomistic. I'm sure it was a business decision. Dollars rule.

Must be something for the Sci-Fi Channel...when was the last time you saw a phone booth? Maybe it is retro back to the pre-eighties.

HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - Twentieth Century Fox has elected to postpone indefinitely the release of director Joel Schumacher's sniper thriller "Phone Booth," while a real-life gunman terrorizes residents around the nation's capital.

"In light of recent events, we are delaying the release of 'Phone Booth,"' said Flo Grace, a spokeswoman for the studio. "We don't have a new date yet."

The movie was scheduled to be released Nov. 15.

Guess this won't be coming out at all.
