More fall previews.

"The Fall must make up for a previously mediocre eight months at the movies," demands Bill Gibron as he introduces PopMatters' "Fall Movie Preview: A Season of Musts." That's "Must See," "Must Wait" and "Must Rent."

Sean Burns takes on the movie section in the Philadelphia Weekly's, where Matt Prigge tells tales of sneaking among the screens at the multiplex: "You come up with bizarre double and triple features, often including films you've no interest in or even outright dread. I've seen Terrence Malick's three-hour The Thin Red Line right after imbibing Varsity Blues. Scorsese's Bringing out the Dead once preceded the Tara Reid boob-a-thon Body Shots, and Apt Pupil was squeezed in between Pleasantville and Rush Hour."

The Philadelphia City Paper sweeps movies out if its fall preview, but the Independent Weekly blows them right into its. David Fellerath adds a piece on the season's special series.

The City Pages has been allowed to blurb a few items on the Twin Cities fall schedule, a job someone realized couldn't be outsourced to the coasts.

The Nashville Scene goes for an interesting twist, with Jim Ridley recommending "movies for an autumn night’s romantic entertainment, whether your taste runs toward shared sniffles or cinematic foreplay." From All That Heaven Allows through The Umbrellas of Cherbourg.
