Must See Fall 2010 Movies

Stephanie Armstrong
These movies have been generating a lot of buzz in Hollywood for quite some time now. These must see movies are set to be released during the fall 2010 season and I had to add Blue Valentine to the list because it has been well received since January. Fans are counting down the months to see these movies that will be a great change of pace after all of the summer blockbusters.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I
This film release will probably be bitter sweet for Harry Potter films. It is the second to last movie for the Harry Potter series, but it is one of the most highly anticipated. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I will be released in 3D. Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Ralph Fiennes and Rupert Grint return to the big-screen November 19, 2010. The final Harry Potter film will be released summer 2011.

The Social Network
This fall 2010 movie is commonly refered to as "The Facebook Movie" because it's based on Ben Mezrich's The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook, A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius, and Betrayal. The film stars Rooney Mara, Justin Timberlake and Jesse Eisenberg as Mark Zuckerberg. PopEater recently announced the Rooney Mara is set to play Lisbeth Salander in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. In theatres November 5, 2010.

Easy A
Emma Stone, Amanda Bynes and Penn Badgley star in this Scarlet Letter-esque film about a girl who pretends to have sex with different classmates to revamp her image. Emma Stone's character even plays up her new status by donning a red "A" like Hester Prynne. Amanda Bynes declared that she was retiring from acting on Twitter, but she recently tweeted that she is "unretired" to promote this fall 2010 movie, according to PopEater. Easy A is due in theatres September 17, 2010.

Little Fockers
It will be interesting to see what will be in store for the Fockers this time around since we met them in Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers. Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, and Barbara Streisand return. Jessica Alba and Harvey Keitel are new to the comedy franchise. This must see fall 2010 movie takes place during the Focker boys' fifth birthday party. Little Fockers is set to be released December 22.

Blue Valentine
Blue Valentine's release has been highly anticipated after it was well received at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival in January. The Notebook's Ryan Gosling and actress Michelle Williams portray a couple dealing with their disintegrating marriage. The movie shows the two sides to their story and also gives viewers a peek at how they fell in love. Blue Valentine's release date is December 31, 2010.

    Not sure about any of these really though in my view Harvey Keitel and Ben Stiller are both usually worth watching.
