Why is this listed as 2001?


It came out in 2000.

reply

It's US theatrical release date was January 19th, 2001.

reply

Really? I remember seeing this in the theatre here in Canada in October or November.

reply

"U.S." was the key word there...

reply

is "U.S." really a "word"?

reply

So because its an abbreviation of a proper noun, that somehow discredits my point that Canada is not the same as US? 🤔

Is that what your point is?

reply

Canada and USA are grouped together in terms of movie industry and box office numbers.

reply

They are always released the same time in both countries.

reply

Everything I found online said US was January 19th 2001. Memories play tricks in us all the time. Maybe you saw it the following fall in a special release or the cheap theaters. We had one that always showed movies that were about 6 months old, but the tickets were 2 dollars. Hard saying.

reply

Yes, you're right it was released in 2000.

reply

It probably had a limited release at the very end of 2000, but didn't get the wide theatrical release until
2001.
