    @thedude-abides Ah, that's the one I'd figured would be delayed. What with the article about that particular scene in Gangster Squad and all.

    @the-movieghost Sorry. Had to edit my post. The Gangster Squad. That's probably why TWC felt comfortable moving Killing Them Softly into the Oct. 19th slot.

    Just realized this, but the October 19th slot Killing Them Softly currently finds itself was originally (and currently) occupied by The Gangster Squad, which is perhaps the strongest indicator that it'll indeed be delayed.

    Glad we don't have to wait as long for the Master, and figured they'd push back Killing Them Softly as we have not gotten a trailer for it. Can't wait to see both of these.

    Not to detract from The Master, @thedude-abides please don't hurt me, Lol, the only other things mentioned I'd look forward to are "Killing Them Softly" and maybe "Alex Cross". PA just needs to die already.

    @thedude-abides I'm more interested in the aesthetics and Phoenix's physical appearance. The level of art here is over 9000

    @Dark-White-Knight I agree. As of now, I see it coming down to Phoenix and DDL for Best Actor.

  13. Dark-White-Knight

    I can see Pheonix win best actor, calling it right now and or Phyllip Seymour Hoffman winning supporting actor for sure.

    @dan1 It may not win at the box office, but it will rake in the gold come award season :)
