My mom and I talked about this last weekend.

Something like, a tie in betwen the book and movie. Any other speculations?

Marketing. Creating more hype with the movie in turn creates more hype for the book. Bigger sales both places-- people are curious as to why they moved it up, then will be even more excited to buy the book.

Genius.

Wasn't the book supposed to come out before the movie at one point? I thought that was dumb, to see what happens in 7, then backtrack to 5. I'm glad it's this way...I'M IMPATIENT!!
