Watchmen Release Date To Be Determined By Judge

Published on January 7th, 2009

So it looks like we find out the faith of the Watchmen on the same as the US gets a new president.That’s right on January 20th.

The L.A. Times is reporting today that lawyers for 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros. have come to an agreement to allow U.S. District Judge Gary A. Feess to decide if Warner Bros. should be allowed to release “Watchmen” this spring as planned, therefore eschewing a potentially lengthy jury trial that would most likely cause the film to be delayed even further.I hope we can get  a release date set in stone.

“We are gratified by the recognition of our rights in the judge’s order, which speaks for itself.” from Fox film.

At the same time  Warner Bros told the press  “We will continue to pursue all of our legal options to defeat Fox’s meritless claims and remain confident that we will ultimately prevail.”
