Many new movies planned for fall
"Irreconcilable Differences"

O'Neal and Shelley Long, for divorce in this
contemporary comedy.

Well, the summer movie sea
son is almost over. We've seen
several small midwestern
towns destroyed, the USS En
terprise destroyed, nerds vindi
cated, karate kids vindicated,
ghosts busted and Bo busted.
And that's just a small sample
of the highs and lows — it has
been a season of both super-hits
and huge disasters.
Now, comes the fall. Usually
this means a very dry period for
movie-goers. Potentially high-
grossing films are almost al
ways either released during the
summer or saved until
Christmas. For example,
"Gremlins," "Ghostbusters,"
"Indiana Jones and The Temple
of Doom" and "Star Trek III"
were all rushed into early sum
mer releases to catch as much
money as possible. On the flip
side, three other presumed big
gies are being saved for
Christmas. "2010," the sequel
CAMPUS
PUCTC
CENTER
INC.
Northgate 401 University Dr.
to "2001: A Space Odyssey,"
"Dune," basea on the Frank
Herbert science-fiction classic,
and "City Heat," starring the
high-powered pair of Clint
Eastwood and ourt Reynolds,
will all have December releases
in anticipation of holiday
crowds.
The fall season usually only
produces one or two big-gross
ing sleepers and that scares the
producers. It is commonly used
to release the arty films that end
up vying for the Academy
Awards, but which won't be
commercially successful. That
trend will continue.
This fall, there is a difference.
Over 40 new films are set to be
released between now and late
November. The reason for the
turnaround has been attributed
to the wonderful state of the
movie business after this sum
mer. Both U.S. and Canadian
box office returns are setting re
cords and the largest number of
films ever are in the works.
The following is a list of mov
ies to be released for the rest of
September and October by the
major studios with date of re
lease, title, cast and brief synop
sis.
