So I didn't remember the exact day of the release of The Force Awakens, so I look Metacritic and I see that other two movies release the same day as StarWars:

This is going to be a slaughter. Why would people release any movie the exact same day as that behemoth? I think in some european countries this movies were moved, why not in USA?

Star Wars against the Chipmunks movie. Get ready to watch the battle of the century XD
