How many of these movies generating Oscar buzz have you seen?

How many do you want to see in the coming months when they actually come out to theaters near you?

One I don't see on the list is

"We need to talk about Kevin"

It should be getting some buzz once it's released and hopefully acting nominations for Tilda Swinton and Ezra Miller

^ It's on the 'possible' list atm but yeah I really expect it to get more buzz when it premiers [especially in the US].

I really want to see it.

Looks very good.

it does look good. i want to see that one and a few others.
