Spiderman 3 is being released in China before it lands in American theaters… in order to combat piracy.

“It will be almost a day-and-date release because of the time difference, but China will see ‘Spider-Man’ first,” Yuan said. Increasingly, Hollywood studios choose to release big films in China on or near their worldwide premiere dates to stem losses from piracy that increase the longer a film is in theaters.

Gee, that’ll learn ‘em a lesson.  I’m not sure I would have had a good upbringing if my childhood punishments sounded like rewards.

“Mau, this is the last time you steal cars… I’ve had it!  Here’s a brand new Lexus, Ya Basta!”
