Why not release it everywhere at the same time? I'm sure there's a good marketing reason for it...


I remember reading somewhere that the reason was down to film stock and the numbers of prints made. You can get round needing loads of copies by staggering the releases and moving the prints from country to country.

Apparently digital cinema would put an end to that problem and enable simultaneous global releases.

....or something like that.
