Bond 23 release date screws the yanks for once

Sony have announced the release date for the next Bond film, and it's quite far away but you know the best bit? It's going to be released in the UK a full two weeks before the US! Time to break out the tea - that almost never happens.

Sony, EON Productions and MGM did one of them press releases today to announce the date that Bond 23 (title still pending, but I'm hoping for 'Zombie Killsquad') will be released in UK cinemas. Here's what they said:

...and us:



Now, let's hope MGM can actually make the fucker.
