        That's what I wasn't sure of. Maybe if the movie's already released they wait for the adjust? -- nm - Meg Jun 20, 15:42
      - I don't recall how it used to work though I recall it was different - ty97 Jun 20, 15:40 2
        
        I think at one time it delisted at 0 but they decided that wasn't fare. - pmb Jun 20, 15:41 1
        
        yah, I think I remember noting the switch being an improvement from that. -- nm - b. Jun 20, 15:43
  - I mean the guy is Nick Fudge on steroids, heroine, and meth, but still. -- nm - ty97 Jun 20, 15:26
