5. The Accountant
Release Date: October 14th
Cast: Ben Affleck, Jon Bernthal, Anna Kendrick, John Lithgow, J.K. Simmons, Jeffrey Tambor
Director: Gavin O’Connor (Warrior, Miracle)
I’ve had my eye on this one for a while. First of all, this is another movie where the “ridiculous cast” mantra comes into play. Ben Affleck is crushing it right now, even in the much maligned DCEU. He looks phenomenal here. Scary as hell, but not in an obvious way. This even feels like a movie directed by Affleck. The director is Gavin O’Connor, who’s also very talented. If you haven’t seen Warrior, please watch it immediately. This looks tense as hell, but also has potential for a great character piece on this oddball genius with a mysterious aura. My expectations are very high for this one.
Oscar Alert! There’s potential across the board, although the subject matter doesn’t look super Oscar-ish. This could garner Affleck his first acting nom. We could see a double Affleck in the Best Actor category this year. Whoa.

Wow! You sound like someone who’s so educated on Fantastic Beasts!
If you were a Harry Potter fan you at least do your fucking research and find out that the beasts are not the focus of the film! I know you’d hoping for an underwhelming box office, but it’s fandangos most anticipated fall film! Stop trying to force your douchey negativity on all of us.
This films is about life in Wizarding America, no about beasts. You don’t care about it because you’re a lazy ignorant asshole who takes everything at face value. You seriously think JK Rowling would give us a story just about creatures? It’s a trilogy, you fuckin’ idiot. And it’s had massively amazing test screening reviews. Please stop writing.
