Movies I'm looking forward upon summers close

Doing nothing and having a movie weekend last weekend (I watched "Cover" and "Things we lost in the fire" for the first time, and I highly recommend both) made me realize I have not been to the movies since SATC came out. I only went to see that because of all the hype and thought I was missing something. Never been a big fan of going to the movies in the summer. They always have the A/C way too damn high and I'd rather be doing activities you can do outside since the nice weather in NYC is limited and the movies are always cozier in the fall/winter anyway. Now that its August, that means the summer is starting to wind down and I have been scoping the net for previews of movies I am looking forward to. Here are a couple:

September 12 - The Women


September 12 - The Family that Preys


September 19 - Lakeview Terrace


What are some movies you are looking forward to the rest of this year?

Hope everyone's weekend is going well!

I want to see the Family That Preys, but Lake View reminds me of White Mans Burden, and that sucked.

I do want to see Traitor and Pineapple Express.

Unfortunately, I haven't heard of any of these movies you have mentioned. I do plan on seeing Tropic Thunder but that is as far as I've gotten.
I've been the movie queen this summer and I was pleasantly surprised that they've had the A/C on a comfortable temperature at all the shows I've visited.

Did you go out last night? I finally watched Superbad...so funny!

Wait I know what Tropic Thunder is.. That Ben Stiller movie... my friend saw a screening for it a while back... she said it was really good but touches on a lot of racial things... so dont go if your really sensitive to that type of stuff

Yea Im really looking forward to "the woman" with jada

I want to see the Family that Preys , glad to see Perry is "diversifying"- gain more viewers that way.
I saw Tropic Thunder at an advance screening- HILARIOUS (touches on racial things but dealt with it very well in my opinion, b/c I was ready to be mad when I saw Downey Jr. in black face but there is more to it).
I saw a trailer for Lake view Terrace- interesting.
Other movies, besides Harry Potter (yeah I said it) I want to see won't be out to 09(Like Wolverine and Star Trek- but I'm no sci fi geek!)
