Template:Film date
Usage
This template ({movie date}) returns auto formatting for use in the "released" parameter of {Infobox movie}. The template applies Category:Upcoming movies to movies unreleased and replaces it with [[Category:YYYY movies]]
, where YYYY is the year of first release, on the day of release. It also calls {Start date} for the first release date.
