Ready or not, we have entered the holiday season. Christmas music serves as the soundtrack for every store, and every store is draped with garlands and tiny lights, which blink over trees laden with decorations. This week, the season officially starts for Hollywood, which over the next five weeks will release its biggest movies of the year. Leading that list would be Star Wars: The Force Awakens and, uh, Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Just to add to the insanity for film critics, during those very same five weeks, the studios will release their best movies, the ones they plan to put up for Oscars. Several Oscar hopefuls will open for limited release in New York and Los Angeles, and then open here in January, so of youre looking for a title in this calendar and don't find it, keep your eyes open in 2016.
