It always looks bleak this time of the year. The months between January and March are, traditionally, a barren wasteland of cinema. Things will pick up starting in May for the summer blockbuster season and then improve greatly around October through December.

There are a lot of interesting movies on the horizon: Chappie (Blomkamp); Crimson Peak (del Toro); Spectre (Mendes); The Martian (Scott); Tomorrowland (Bird); The Hateful Eight (Tarantino); Pawn Sacrifice (Zwick); St. James Place (Spielberg); The Revenant (Inarritu); and many more.
