Release Day Round-Up is a new, ongoing feature here at Bigfanboy that will be posted every Thursday to showcase the important information and marketing material for the new movies being released that day (special editions will be posted for movies with mid-week openings). This way you can make an informed decision on what movie (or movies) you will see on opening weekend. As always, let us know what you think in the comments, if you would like anything added and if you plan on seeing the particular movie being highlighted on opening weekend, sometime down the road, wait for it on home release or passing all together. Here’s all you could want to know about the re-release of THE LION KING 3D:
