[edit] Release year

I wanted to make a note that there is no verifiable release information for Tree of Life. IMDb always makes an estimate about what year an upcoming film would come out, so it should not be cited. The film could very well be released in 2008 or experience a prolonged editing process and be released as late as 2010. For this reason, I've indicated that the release of this film is TBA. I'm sure we can argue that 2009 seems like the best bet, but it's too much of an assumption to incorporate into this Wikipedia article. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 16:34, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

That sounds like the right thing to do per WP:CRYSTAL. Malick is known for re-cutting his films again and again so it could be 2010 or later, but with an estimated budget of $175 million, I bet there is a lot of pressure to get it out on schedule so the investors can get payback! -Nv8200p talk 19:27, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
