New Flicks

As we all know I am a movie fanatic, they are what I live for. I always look towards the fall for films, not so much the whole summer blockbuster thing necessarily. I did however see the Dark Knight and it was awesome as reviewed and expected. I look to movies at all times for "still images", scenes that look like they would make perfect photographs. There were a fair amount of good scenes in this movie for that. Im always looking out for what's coming up though on a daily basis. I definitely need to do some more research but for now here are a few movies im looking forward to.

 "Knowing", I have never been a huge Nicolas Cage fan, but this one looks pretty good and i have usually enjoyed him in the "National Treasure" series. It seems a little M. Night Shamylan-esque. In this film, back in the 60's school children were asked to draw their predictions for the future and 50 years later they will be revealed from a time capsule. Things get weird when one of the papers is covered in number, which Cage figures out to have predicted all disasters in the last 50 years. He is now at a point where he can see whats going to happen in the future. The big question is...what happens when the numbers run out? This one goes out to Phillip Noel in the spirit of 2012.

"Towelhead" has such an abrasive title, but it looks really good, funny yet super intense about coming of age in the states and trying to deal with heritage and overbearing parents. 

Im looking forward to "Death Race" for its explosions, the sounds of guns and other gratuitous violence, I have yet to see the original but this just looks fun. 

"Dorothy" is an upcoming horror film based in Ireland but subtitled in french. The movie follows a psychiatrist that is just getting over the accidental death of her son when she is sent to an Irish island to help a 15 year old girl. The girl is accused of attempting to murder a baby that she is caring for, at first she is diagnosed with multiple personality disorder but once she speaks to the doctor is her dead sons voice, the doctor is forced to realize there is a larger power at hand here.
