Hmmm - perhaps something weird was going on with a previous update on my computer to Adobe Flash because the latest update was installed on my computer the other day and now when I go to the official site for the DS film, the pages that I thought were removed are back. Well, either it was the Adobe Flash installation or they put the pages back for some reason. But I suspect it's more the former than the latter because why would WB remove the pages only to put them back?
But anyway, the point of this post is that apparently something odd is indeed going on with the release of the DS film in Venezuela. Now that I have access to all the pages on the official site again, I was able to access the Global Release Dates page - and the release date for Venezuela is
still listed as August 17th even though we know the film never did open there then. But the big tipoff is that now when you click the Facebook link for Venezuela, instead of being taken to the Facebook page that I was taken to a few months back that was specifically for DS in Venezuela, you're taken to a generic Facebook page for WB Pictures Latin America. And DS is heavily represented there (and at some point I need to go back to see everything), but with just a quick glance, while I did see indications there that DS was supposed to come out in Venezuela on August 17th, I didn't see anything saying the date had changed or that it wasn't coming out there at all. Who knows?
