No, but undoubtedly casual cinema audiences will suffer because of the World Cup. People will be choosing with mates between going to the pub to watch a match, or going to the cinema. Far more sensible to release when they don't have that competition.
But why is it only the UK (And Ireland I believe)? Germany, France and everywhere else all still have the July release date as far as I'm aware and they're just as into the World Cup as the UK is.
EDIT: And why a month? Why not a week, or even two?
EDIT: EDIT: There's not even any other big movies out during July that might get in the way.
