[QUOTE="Marote, post: 11903441, member: 84568"]Is that answer given on one of the mentioned sites? Or is this once again an AI "answer" based on a mix of information? Wikipedia is shown as a source for this answer, but the Ben-Hur page on wiki, only mentions (reprints of) lobby cards that came with a 2002 boxed deluxe edition. If you ask the same question to Google AI, and replaced 1960 by 1970, the answer is: Lobby cards for the 1959 film Ben-Hur are often dated 1970 because Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) launched a major 10th Anniversary theatrical re-release that year. 1975: Lobby cards for the 1959 film Ben-Hur are often dated 1970 because Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) launched a significant theatrical re-release of the movie during that year. For 79: Lobby cards for the 1959 film Ben-Hur are often dated 1979 (and sometimes 1980) because of a specific international theatrical re-release. For many years AI has an answer explaining the date. Even for 1957: Lobby cards for the 1959 version of Ben-Hur are often dated 1957 because that was the year pre-production and principal photography officially began at Cinecittà Studios in Rome.[/QUOTE]
