Has anyone else noticed that IMDb lists The Hurt Locker as having been released in 2008 when it actually came out in 2009? If you Google Oscar winners for Best Picture, IMDb lists two for 2008 and none for 2009, and one of the big thrills that year was that Kathryn Bigelow was going up against her ex-husband, James Cameron, who directed Avatar, which came out in 2009. This needs to be fixed.

IMDb goes by the first available screenings, which was at several festivals in 2008.



Also the correct wide release is there in small print,
