Pissed that Killing Them Softly was pushed to next month (it was right?), but I definitely want to see Seven Psychopaths and Argo.

Without a doubt: Cloud Atlas. I've seen that trailer countless times.
They've been doing this disappointing release pattern since CR. Why do you hate North America, EON?

I hope GAF goes to see Sinister instead of Paranormal Activity, it looks soooo much better and reviews are great.

Feb release for Cloud Atlas in the UK. Where's the humanity?

So is V/H/S just a remake of the Poughkeepsie Takes or...?
Looks intriguing, especially since it seems to

dabble in the more supernatural stuff, although I'm sure it's all BS or something.
hOLY MOTORS WAS A BLAST! sAW IT FEW WEEKS BACK AND WHILE IT WAS BIT ODD, i REALLY ENJOYED IT. iT WAS VISUALLY GOOD LOOKING MOVIE AND i REALLY LIKED THE CAST. eVEN mINOGUE WAS GOOD. cLOUD AT LAST HAS SUCH ANNOYING CAST THAT i WON'T BE SEEING IT, ALSO i STILL DON'T SEE HOW THE BOOK COULD BE TURNED INTO A DECENT MOVIE.

2. Argo (Ben Affleck; Oct. 12th)
Synopsis: As the Iranian revolution reaches a boiling point, a CIA 'exfiltration' specialist concocts a risky plan to free six Americans who have found shelter at the home of the Canadian ambassador.
Trailer
Why You Should See It: After crafting two confident features with both Gone Baby Gone and The Town, the reinvigorated actor-turned-director Ben Affleck has now gone back in time for his third outing, with this 1979-set hostage drama. Blending more comedy than ever before, we highly recommended this one coming out of Toronto and one can read our full review here.
Comedy? I don't remember that in his previous films...but Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms yo!
This weekend, Killing Them Softly and Holy Motors (some buzz here in UK even if cast doesn't seem appealing).
Favorite movie right now is Beasts of the Southern Wild, will be glad to see if there can be any better movies this year.
Expendable.

Yeah, there was some comedic elements to relieve the tension in his other films but I keep how straight-up funny his latest is...and still tense of course.

More disappointing, Australia doesn't get Bond films until late November - this time on the 22nd. Why do you hate Australia, EON? Bond films in Australia get a delay by a month. What is that? A whole month? I honestly don't understand the logic behind this in any way.
4. Holy Motors (Leos Carax; Oct. 17th)
Synopsis: 24 hours in the life of a being moving from life to life: by turns murderer, beggar, company chairman, monstrous creature, worker, family man
Trailer
Why You Should See It: One of our favorite films at Cannes is getting a limited bow this month. We described Leos Caraxs latest as delightfully surreal, with the filmmaker channeling the absurd sensibilities of Luis Buñuel in his prime. The film has so many holy crap! moments that it becomes a breathtaking spectacle to witness. Featuring a series of outlandish vignettes strung together by an enigmatic chameleon-like lead character, Holy Motors is one of the most eccentric films of the year.
Is this some kind of sequel to Carax's "short" in Tokyo ?
I mean ... the character looks TOO MUCH alike

October: Interested in Taken 2, Smashed, Seven Psychopaths, and Cloud Atlas.
Unsure if I'll get around to seeing any of them, as free time for movies will be dedicated to my Bondtober's Bond Rewatchathon in preperation for Skyfall.
November: shockingly, Skyfall.

The Loneliest Planet, Argo & Cloud Atlas for me.
Don't sleep on Sinister if you are a fan of horror or found footage films - I saw it at the FrightFest last month and was pretty impressed. It builds tension very well at the start, and the title is very fitting as 'sinister' is the best way to describe the tone of the film. Ethan Hawke is great in the lead role, there's some nice scares throughout, a satisfying conclusion and a surprising dose of humour here and there. Good stuff.

Went to see Holy Motors yesterday.
Was good and interesting enough that I'd see it again on DVD/Netflix
Films I'm seeing this month:
Looper (lol)
Skyfall (SO HYPED)
Seven Psychopaths (fuckin' loved In Bruges)
Cloud Atlas (purely because it looks so intriguing and magical)
The Sessions
Argo
The Master (love PTA)
Looks like a great month for films; something for everyone.

I intend to, during the christmas or new year sales.
on topic, everyone in the US should watch killing them softly when it's released. I watched it recently and found it to be quite amazing. brad pitt continues to show that he's getting much better at choosing acting roles, he was simply amazing in this, I'll even go out on a limb and say this was his best movie and performance to date.
