The Barbra Streisand-Seth Rogen comedy "The Guilt Trip" will stay on the road for a little while longer. Paramount announced on Thursday that the film's opening will shift from Nov. 2 to Dec. 25, with the Denzel Washington thriller "Flight" taking its place on the calendar. That's great and all, but HOLY COW HOW MANY MOVIES ARE COMING OUT IN DECEMBER?
Ahem. The practical answer to that question is pretty simple: 12, according to Box Office Mojo. Of those 12, however, 10 are major-league releases featuring either big-name directors, big-names stars or both. Deep breath!
· There's Bill Murray-as-FDR in "Hyde Park on the Hudson" on Dec. 7.
· On Dec. 14, Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" and Tom Hopper's star-studded "Les Miserables" (with Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway and more) arrive.
· Dec. 21 finds Ang Lee's already Oscar buzz-y "Life of Pi," Judd Apatow's "This Is 40," the Tom Cruise-led "One Shot" and Kathryn Bigelow's Osama Bin Laden drama "Zero Dark Thirty."
· And on Christmas Day, "Django Unchained" and "The Great Gatsby" (both with Leonardo DiCaprio) unwrap (ding, groan!). Plus, now, "The Guilt Trip" will sit under the tree, too. (Seriously, sorry.)
So! Busy, busy! If you were hoping to spend the holiday season with your family, Hollywood apologizes in advance.
