COMING SOON Poll – September 2013

September is the month where we start to see films that generate awards buzz, ones that you’ll see pop up on all the end-of-the-year lists. Oh, there have certainly been some great movies already this year (“Mud”, “The Place Beyond the Pines”, “The Way Way Back” and “The Spectacular Now”), but traditionally, studios save their major contenders for the fall.  Among the releases this month, is one of the final films of James Gandolfini (“Enough Said”) and the directorial debut of actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt (“Don Jon”). There’s also “Prisoners”, a crime thriller from Oscar-nominated Canadian director, Denis Villeneuve, which is already receiving good press. There’s also the return of “Riddick” and new movies from Ron Howard and Luc Besson, as well as the requisite monthly sequels (“Insidious Chapter 2” and “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2”) among the many indies. So, it’s time to vote!
