Why is the German version of Prometheus released 2 months after the world premiere?
Usually Big Blockbusters are timed to be released in major countries at roughly the same time. This even includes movies that are dubbed for localised version.
The London premiere was on 31 May 2012 but the German release will be on 9 August 2012.
Is there any information why the German version got a 2 month delay?

Seems like Vijin was right. I asked @foxdeutschland about this and they responded:
This roughly translates to:
oers: Why is Prometheus released here [in germany] two month after the world premiere?
fox: The german release had to be postponed due to the UEFA Euro 2012 to august.
