November is interesting for movies this year. Usually the movies are all serious and wanting to go for the oscars. Obviously not so this year which our first pick proves.

Nov 4th Borat. Sacha Baron Cohen’s offensive movie hits and the nation of Kakhasthan weeps. I’m intrigued to see if he can pull this off. It’s been dropped too 800 theatres from 2000 so that will hurt its audience some.

Nov 10th I can’t believe I’m interested in a Will Ferrel movie but Stranger than Fiction looks pretty good. I may wait to rent it depending on how busy I am. It also goes up agaisnt the always box office strong Russel Crowe and Ridley Scott in a odd film for them. Adapting Peter Mayles A Good Year. No violence there and may be a Oscar contender.

NOV 17th. Craig, Daniel Craig. Casino Royale hits and we see if the Broccoli’s were wise in rebooting the franchise. I think they may have hit it from the previews I’ve seen. I was one of the many who said what? when they cast Craig, but now I’m leaning towards the yes, and I want nothing more than for the master spy to get back to action and spying and away from the past movies special effects.

Nov 24th The Fountain. If this actually finally comes out I’ll be happy. I don’t care about the reviews. This film looks amazing. I think too many directors forget they have a paint brush, especially in science fiction and don’t use enough colors. I’ll be in my seat for the weirdness that is Aranofsky and the Fountain.

Also Jack Black’s Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny comes out today. See what im saying about strange placement in November.
