The BBC had the rights to the 2006 WB films as they showed Superman Returns and The Ant Bully so it's possible that Channel 4 gained the rights to the Sony films from 2010 and 2011 before Channel 5 renewed their contract with Sony, 5 did show some Sony films from 2010 like Grown Ups and The Other Guys.
We're still waiting on some really big titles like The Dark Knight, Sherlock Holmes and Inception to get a terrestrial premiere. Much longer and they'll start talking about a Dark Knight re-make

Anyone know what the current state of play is regarding more recent WB movies?

With the exception of the Harry Potter film which are on a different deal, and Slumdog Millionaire, Terminator: Salvation, Watchmen and The Invention of Lying (which were all distributed by somebody else in the UK), I don't think we've had any post-2007 Warner Bros. premières, which would mean either ITV are very slow, or their deal has expired...
Oh well, if it's not just ITV being silly (as if!), fingers crossed that someone else will sign on the dotted line at some point. Thanks for the info! |

I didn't realise that it was so extensive. I thought it was just a few of the big-hitters being held back.

21 Jump Street was co-financed by MGM, back when they were big in the TV game, so I'm guessing the TV rights will have been brought from MGM rather than Sony.
It seems odd to me that C4 would show a few Sony films only for the contract to revert back a year later... |

So will we ever get any more Warner Brother films again on terrestrial TV. Films like Sherlock or the Hangover have not been shown. So will the films such as new year of Jack and the Giant Slayer be shown.

Ah, that's the one I was thinking of. I was surprised about that. Can't remember what BBC1 were showing at the time, but it must've been a premiere also as it was on at 3.10pm.

Since TV stations like to time premieres to air with their sequels, I thought we would've seen 2011's Planet of the Apes remake air in time for the new film.

However, it isn't scheduled for the Saturday and the Sunday schedule is embargoed until tomorrow, but somebody with digiguide may be able to tell you... |

That could make sense seeing as that would be Age of Extinction's opening weekend (it opens this forthcoming Saturday, which makes the following weekend it's opening weekend - it has to be open on the Friday to qualify as an opening weekend)..
(Bad) Neighbo(u)rs also did that. I wonder if this is the start of a trend. Quote:

Just checked. They've got a double bill of The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, from 9pm.(Just kidding) At the moment, on C4, Sat July 12th just says TBA for 9-11.15pm, which is too short a slot. Sun already lists Titanic from 7pm. |

It's a real con, that. They obviously don't think it can manage No.1 on its own, so do this to get almost two full weekends out of it, to make a sure-fire No.1.

The credits for The Armstrong Lie, were weird, they were squeezed throughout except for the logos at the end. I must say it was the first time in ages I've been annoyed at a credit squeeze...

Rise of the Planet of the Apes should do well although Channel 4 could have shown it a week earlier since Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is out next Thursday, bit odd that Hugo is being shown in summer, seems more of a Christmassy film.
