Movies Coming Soon: October 2017
This post is so late that some of the movies have came and gone, but I didn't want to skip a month, so it'll partially be a review post too. I have only watched two movies so far this month, so that won't be hard.

While looking through my many drafts, I found this post from almost two years ago. I never got around to polishing it, or by the time I did, it was already two months after the fact, which made me embarrassed to show how long I had procrastinated, so I just left it there. Though a bit outdated, I still have the same sentiments, so might as well let it see the light of day now.
Spotlight won Best Picture! It was a surprise, as The Revenant looked on track to win after picking up two of the major awards, while Spotlight hadn't won anything other than Original Screenplay. But I'm pleased it won.
The Oscars are tomorrow morning, and I wanted to get my predictions in -- or more accurately, my wishlist -- before results are announced. I haven't watched all the movies, much less the documentaries and shorts -- everything I've chosen is based on awards that have already been given out, analyses I've read from entertainment blogs and trade magazines, and pure guesses.
In the words of one of the numerous reviewers raving over Mad Max: Fury Road: "See. That. Damn. Movie."
We're now in the summer blockbuster season! I've been waiting for this since 2012, after The Avengers came out and they announced the sequel for May 1, 2015. :')
