 		Great list.

July 4th would certainly make a great opening date for the Poppeteers website...

 		Interesting experiment!

Though to continue following it, you'd have to be very stringent in also listing any clue releases that do NOT coincide with a 'space date' as well, to truly tell if a pattern exists or if it's simply random coincidence.

One must admit, that's a fairly full calendar list of dates, even just using "significant" highlights. It wouldn't be hard to hit some of them by utter chance, and missing others could be just as random. A matching pattern would have to be very strong to imply deliberate choices. We'll see.

True, but in the movie world, May is the start of the summer release season mainly due to it having the first "summer" season holiday and the growing influx of out-of-school ticket buyers.

 		Just hope we don't have to wait till the 21st for the next thing LOL.


Yes yes I know we've only just begun, and patience is a virtue... but I hate being virtuous! Wink

 		New clue in next 48h
Okay, so the pattern still holds. And if anyone has been following, the 4th/5th (timezone issues I'm sure) is crunch time for this theory. Hopefully a nice new clue in the next 48h Cool

.... though failing that I'd still hang on for 20th

True, but in the movie world, May is the start of the summer release season mainly due to it having the first "summer" season holiday and the growing influx of out-of-school ticket buyers.

In the movie world, summer begins the weekend of Memorial Day.
School, on the other hand, does not let out until mid June.
In 2011, the first day of Summer would be June 22 - A Wednesday.

Also, in the Summer months, many movies are released on a Wednesday!
The closest date multipsychoapopheniosis had to offer was:
"June 21, 2004 First Manned Private Space Flight *NEW PRINTOUT "

My first thought would have been July 1, 2011. But that would put Super 8 up against another Paramount release: Transformers 3 (wouldn't work).
http://www.themovieinsider.com/movie-releases/-/2011/

Not much in the way of competition that week:
Jun 17
Green Lantern
Jun 24
Cars 2: World Grand Prix, Rise of the Apes


****SIDE NOTE****
Recent Wednesday Summer releases:
Wednesday, June 16
Stonewall Uprising
Wednesday, June 23
Knight and Day
Wednesday, June 30
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse
