There is plenty to see in the month of November for new releases but if you want to see any the films I consider to be the top ten, you’ll have to bide your time until November 7th when animated features like Disney’s Big Hero 6 rockets into theatres. For those of you who are waiting for animated animals of the cute and cuddly kind, the end of November can’t bring Penguins of Madagascar and Paddington (for those in the UK) fast enough.
But until the new releases appear, there is enough selection to enjoy at your local theatre. Vic Theatre has Rocky Horror Picture Show on October 30th and 31st and according to their website they are allowing toast but not the buttered kind.
Star Cinema in Sidney have an interesting documentary being screened on Nov 19th, Just Eat It: A Food Waste Story explores the billions of dollars of food disposed farmers, retailers and consumers throw out each year. We follow filmmakers Grant Baldwin and Jenny Rustemeyer as they pledge to stop buying their food from grocery stores and start living living off of society’s throwaways.
ArtSpring on Salt Spring Island will be also be screening Just Eat It as a presentation of the Salt Spring Film Festival. The screening will take place on November 19th at 7 pm. Tickets to the ArtSpring screening can be purchased by clicking on the link here.
It will also be held at the Victoria Event Center Wed. November 19th, 2014
It seems that even when you manage to find ten movies of the month that you can’t wait to see, why is it that the one Canadian film I love has no photos, no trailers and no official website? Maybe it’s because I answered my own question: it is Canadian — meaning no US distributor has taken notice.
Over this past week I have discovered that the places to see films in a local independent setting wasn’t just exclusive to the theatres whose films we list weekly. 
Hello again and welcome back to my weekly article. As we approach the month of October there can only be one thing on people’s minds. No, it’s not Halloween and it’s not pumpkin pie, it is the upcoming movies. As we leave the hum drum that can sometimes be the September movie month, we arrive at the doorstep of October where animation and horror films can be found inside just by turning the doorknob.
For the month of September, Cinecenta has a treat for film lovers of both old and new. Movies such as Ghostbusters, X-Men: Days of Future Past, Obvious Child, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Taking My Parents To Burning Man, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show will delight all at the little theatre located on the University of Victoria campus.
