Discovering good movies, one bad movie at a time

Fall Movie Preview 2017


With only three months left in the year, we’re about to plunge headlong into the twinned moviegoing epochs of Holiday Movie Season and Awards Movie Season, that merry time of year when big-budget tentpole movies about blowing shit up for the whole family and low-budget tragedies about Brits with disabilities rub elbows in the multiplex, vying for your dollars and respect.

Before we take that plunge, the Alternate Ending team is getting ready by looking ahead to our collective most-anticipated films of the fall season. What are we most excited about: the pulp sci-fi pyrotechnics of Thor: Ragnarok? The real-life triumph of Darkest Hour? The arthouse realism of The Florida Project? And just what are our hopes and fears for a certain Star Wars: The Last Jedi?

In Worth Mentioning, Tim shares a classic rewatch of Le Million while Carrie and Rob catch up on Gifted.
