Hello šŸ˜Š I'm new over here so I just thought I'd say hello and ask you guys what movies you are looking forward to watching?

There seems to be a lot of chatter at the moment surrounding Wicked, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Joker: Folie Ć  Deux, Maria etc.

But a movie I'm looking forward to watching is 'Unstoppable'. I just read online that it's premiering tonight at the Toronto International Film Festival and is officially releasing in December.

It's been labelled an American biographical sports drama film but more than that it is a true story about Anthony Robles, a man who was born with one leg who went on to become an American wrestling champion - and in college even competed against the school that rejected him.

It sounds like a very inspiring story with a strong cast (Jharrel Jerome, Don Cheadle, Bobby Cannavale and Jennifer Lopez) and the director William Goldenberg, won an Oscar for Best Editing for the movie 'Argo'.


It seems like this might be one to watch out for?

    Unstoppable sounds really interesting @Atlas35 I'll be keeping an eye out for that one for sure!

    I'm really looking forward to the new Beetlejuice, but I'll probably have to wait until it's avaiable online. I'm already counting down the many days for Dune pt 3. The previous two have been beautifully done!

    Totally agree with you about Dune! I can't wait for the 3rd one.

    I'm seeing Beetlejuice on Sunday and it'll be the first film I've watched in a cinema for many years! I haven't heard of Unstoppable, I'll have to look it up. I feel very much out of the loop of new films nowadays.

    Hi @Atlas35

    Wishing you a warm welcome to the community.

    I'm also looking forward to the new Beetlejuice movie, it'll bring back a lot of childhood nostalgia and I just know it'll be full of laughs and dark humour, which I love!

    'Unstoppable' sounds great, I do love a true story where the underdog overcomes adversity!šŸ’Ŗ

    Lovely of you to join us!

    Take care

    Jodie šŸ˜Š

    Thank you for the warm welcome šŸ˜Š

    Hope everyone enjoys the new Beetlejuice!

    If I'm honest, I think those true stories where an underdog overcomes adversity are my favourite kind of movies so I was automatically drawn to Unstoppable when I read about Anthony's story. I don't usually much notice of reviews but for a movie like this, I'm quite curious to see how it's received at the first screening tonight.

    Definitely! @Atlas35

    It really does seem like an inspiring story, so it really will be interesting to see how it's received. Thank you for letting us know about it, and again, thanks for joining us on the community.

    Have a great weekend šŸ˜Š

    Hi Atlas35,

    Unstoppable sounds great, I love a story of triumph over adversity. I'm looking forward to Wicked as I love the musical but I'm also very curious about "My Old Ass" the title alone is intriguing and it's out this week šŸ˜‚

    Hi @Lola_Scope,

    Unstoppable has been doing the rounds at the film festivals and I think it's been getting pretty good reviews, which is promising.

    I'm looking forward to Wicked too, - and one I forgot to mention was Gladiator II.

    My Old Ass is definitely intriguing šŸ˜‚ I've seen a few ads on Prime but I've still got absolutely no idea what it's about šŸ˜

    I saw an interview about Terrifier 3 over the weekend, I'm hoping it'll be as creepy as the first one.
