I know there are marketing tactics to take into account and blah blah blah, but it'd just be nice to all few a flick at once.Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-84524517167348777662011-10-03T17:01:06.403-04:002011-10-03T17:01:06.403-04:00@Alex Withrow: To answer your question, I usually ...@Alex Withrow: To answer your question, I usually keep up with the UK release dates on imdb, as they are similar to the scandinavian (where I'm at) <br /><br />If you're interested, I compiled an online to-see-list of both old and new films here:<br /><br />http://moviesandsongs365.blogspot.com/2010/07/my-to-see-list.htmlChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395044055566348346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-33199781541686053892011-10-03T16:04:38.051-04:002011-10-03T16:04:38.051-04:00I really enjoy Alexander Payne’s work too.

Funny that his weakest film (in my opinion) is also his most praised.<br /><br />The Future came out here in July (are you in the UK?), but I’m not the biggest Miranda July fan, so I skipped it.<br /><br />Just looked up Another Happy Day (which I’d never heard of). Looks cool, I’ll have to be on the lookout for that one.<br /><br />Thanks for reading!Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-57715002813625467892011-10-03T12:13:23.201-04:002011-10-03T12:13:23.201-04:00Nice work, sure are a lot of great films to look f...Nice work, sure are a lot of great films to look forward to! <br /><br />Especially excited for The Descendants, Alexander Payne's first film in years, he's among my favourite directors working today.<br /><br />Of the titles you don't mention, "The Future" directed by Miranda July is also on my list, also, "Another Happy Day" Both I heard about at sundance in january-finally they are getting a release date nov 4thChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395044055566348346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-43320236263331229932011-09-25T20:26:11.190-04:002011-09-25T20:26:11.190-04:00Thanks dude, I'm really hoping this fall is be...Thanks dude, I'm really hoping this fall is better than last year (and the year before that)Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-68333827501487628772011-09-25T20:10:23.055-04:002011-09-25T20:10:23.055-04:00Well, I can't argue with too many of these.

Most of these films will be out weeks/months later here is Australia, so it will be a frustrating wait at times, but there is plenty to look forward to. Great post.

Thanks for calling me out (no bullshit).<br /><br />@Aziza, thanks man, glad you liked it, much more Oscar chat to come.<br /><br />@Tom C., so excited about MMMM and Take Shelter, not too surprised that you didn't dig Melancholia, Von Trier's flicks are always so polarizing. Drive was brilliant, and I agree with your indifference toward the Spielbergs and We Bought a Zoo. I know next to nothing about Extremely Loud, so I'll go into that one blind.<br /><br />Thanks all for reading and commenting!!Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-51928505138336666792011-09-25T09:33:42.654-04:002011-09-25T09:33:42.654-04:00I got the chance to see Martha Marcy May Marlene a...I got the chance to see Martha Marcy May Marlene and Take Shelter at MIFF earlier this year, and can confirm they are both are really strong. <br /><br />I also saw Melancholia and loathed it (but I was definitely in the minority).<br /><br />On your list I'm especially excited for Drive, 50/50, The Ides of March, Mission Impossible and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Can't say I have much interest in either Spielberg film, We Bought A Zoo or Extremely Loud (I read the book and didn't care for it at all).Tom Clifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10969940401754806603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-36157502511796714632011-09-24T04:26:00.673-04:002011-09-24T04:26:00.673-04:00And with that wonderful post, I just saw 5 or 6 tr...And with that wonderful post, I just saw 5 or 6 trailers I was interested in!
