Release Date       16th December (India)

Director               Brad Bird

Cast                    Tom Cruise,Jeremy Renner,Paula Patton,Simon Pegg,Anil Kapoor

Pluses                  Trailer looks really cool and sleek,story seems fresh,action is top notch

Minuses               Tom Cruise is not as 'hot' at box office as he used to be once

Box Office Prediction       This should take a big opening because of franchise and strategic release date

Cast                    Asa Butterfield,Jude Law,Ben Kingsley,Chloe Moretz,Christopher Lee

Pluses                  Most acclaimed director directing first time a 3D film is in itself more than enough

Minuses               A fantasy film and Scorsese doesn't go along very well plus a simplistic trailer 

Box Office Prediction       Totally depends on content but will take a decent start due to Scorsese brand 

8. THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO

Release Date       21st December (USA)

Director               David Fincher

Pluses                  Top notch director fresh from his last two classic films 'The Social Network' and 'The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button',Daniel Craig stars at last in something meaningful and exciting,based on high selling novel by Swedish author Stieg Larsson

Minuses               Can Flincher make him(Bond)act too-million dollar question?

Box Office Prediction       There is a hype surrounding film,director and cast which will gurantee a hit opening at least

7. MONEYBALL

Genre                  Biography/Drama/Sport

Release Date       23rd September

Director               Bennett Miller

Cast                    Brad Pitt,Robin Wright,Jonah Hill

Pluses                  Director who gave 'Capote' and amazing documentary 'The Cruise',Brad Pitt plays what he does best-a underdog,a role with subtle emotions,heart warming real story

Minuses               Looks to similar to 'The Blind Side'

Box Office Prediction       This looks already a super hit

6. THE DESCENDANTS

Genre                  Drama/Comedy

Release Date       23rd November

Director               Alexander Payne

Cast                    George Clooney,Judy Gleer,Matthew Lillard

Pluses                  Trailer looks really interesting,Clooney looks in control and real sure in this,director gave us 'About Schmidt' and 'Sideways' so direction will be slow but engaging

Minuses               Clooney had too many releases lately of same genre

Box Office Prediction      Will garner praise  and critical acclaim but collections will not be huge
