That, you are both right. Kevin and Scott do a huge amount of the Post work themselves and that would require a longer time frame. Add to that that the visial elements of this film will be different than usual, I'm sure, when you throw Vilmos Zsigmond's cinematography into the mix, well...
Secondly, from all accounts, this probably won't be a summer type action flick and Miramax has to look at what other releases are coming out and when...You don't want to put JG up against XXX5 and Die Hard 24, now do you? Plus my guess (again) would be that November is also attractive because it is a "Non-Affleck" month...What's that, you ask? Daredevil is out in Feb and will probably have a typical 8-10 week shelf life. Gigli opens in May, which takes us through summer...Hence they (Miramax) needed a fall Affleck movie. Or maybe I'm just full of shit...
