Anticipated Winter Films Poll

Thanks to everyone for voting in our most recent poll regarding which films you are most looking forward to this winter. Its the most votes we have ever had for a poll! Although lots of people are saying this is a weak year for film (and I tend to agree as far as American cinema has gone) but it can turn around very quickly with the release of some of these films this winter, assuming that they don't get pushed back. Now that several other films have popped to prominence, some titles are notably absent, but this covers the bulk of the mainstream fare. I'm not really surprised by the films with the most votes, but was a bit surprised by the lack of votes for several Hollywood films that have some significant buzz. Just says something about our readership...and its something I am quite happy about. Thanks again for voting! On with the results!

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Many of you may have seen this by now, in English no less, but this trailer is well worth a look. Looks like a contender to me, and with its December release maybe Fincher will get some love that he should have received for Zodiac. The beginning and end are in Spanish, but the bulk of the trailer has no dialogue or voice over or anything. Enjoy the trailer and your weekends! Plan on seeing a lot more posting here, so please come back and visit every day and keep telling your friends about us!
