I'm not surprised it was pulled (or "delayed", as they said). The idea of releasing four three-hour movies in theaters and expecting enough people to flock to them to make a profit--in this day and age--was just stupid.

And to expect those same people would be so eager for Chapter 2 that they would run to theaters again barely a month after Chapter 1's release was arrogance.

opened in theaters on June 28, will land on premium on-demand July 16

LOL, I don't understand this thinking!

Why should people go to theaters to see anything when they KNOW they can just wait three weeks and see the movie from the comfort of home? And for less money?
