With Labor Day arriving today, the Summer 2015 Box Office is over. With that, it’s time to gear up for a slew of new films. More than summer, though, this fall has something for everyone. Fans of blockbusters will get a couple of the year’s biggest films in the next few months. Family-friendly features will also pop up throughout the rest of the year. And, of course, we’re entering Oscar season, so prepare for a bunch of potential Oscar nominees to flood theaters.

Now, it’s hard to guess what will work and what won’t this far out. After all, most of these films have only been viewed through trailers – and even then, some of these films haven’t yet offered a substantial preview yet. Plus, with many of the smaller films getting staggered release dates, there are chances some of these films won’t hit Atlanta (or whatever your own market is) until 2016, assuming they don’t go the VOD route.

That doesn’t mean we can’t guess what releases from the next few months will be good or bad, though.

Below, Outtakes Atlanta presents 30 films that look like they’re worth seeing this between September and December. They range from grand science fiction epics to independent features, with something for everyone. Unlike our Summer 2015 piece, we’re including some independent films in the list, though the release dates for some of these features could change. Additionally, the final page of this article will list ten films that, for one reason or another, look a bit more troubling. Take a look at our list, and let us know what you’re looking forward to seeing (or avoiding).

—The Light Side—

Black Mass

When it comes to lead roles, Johnny Depp’s been on a losing streak for a while. Still, Black Mass looks like a much-needed change for the actor. The film’s based on the true story of Whitey Bulger, and the supporting cast for this film is loaded with great actors. (September 18)

The Danish Girl

Eddie Redmayne’s casting as Lili Elbe, one of the first people to undergo sex reassignment surgery, has raised some questions about casting trans actors in trans roles.
