There's so many awesome things coming up at the Coolidge that it'd be a shame if someone didn't post about them!

I'll update you losers here.

Creature from the Black Lagoon - in 3D
Fri & Sat, Dec 2 & 3, Midnite

1hr 19mins // directed by:Jack Arnold

A geological expedition into the depths of the Amazon goes terribly awry when a centuries-old creature stalks and kills the members of the expedition in this classic Universal creature feature - in 3D!

Every horror fan has a favorite Universal monster. Those of us who choose the Creature, over Dracula and the Wolfman, are a unique bunch. Perhaps it's the amazing monster design and costume; or maybe even the fact that this particular monster is more sympathetic than most. The Gillman is the last of his kind and, after all, he's only trying to get the girl.

12 Monkeys
Monday, December 12, 7PM

2hr 09mins // directed by:Terry Gilliam // featuring:Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, Madeleine Stowe

In a future world devastated by disease, convicted criminal James Cole (Bruce Willis) is given the chance to erase his record by traveling back to the past to investigate the origins of a virus that wiped out nearly all of the earth’s population decades earlier.

But when Cole is mistakenly sent to the wrong year, he is arrested and hospitalized in a mental institution, where he meets a psychiatrist (Madeline Stowe) who is initially convinced he’s insane and a patient (Brad Pitt) with links to a radical group that may have unleashed the deadly virus. Part psychological thriller, part apocalyptic drama, Terry Gilliam’s riveting drama combines intricate storytelling, visual ingenuity, and stellar performances.

Virus outbreaks have long been portrayed in cinema, from The Andromeda Strain to Outbreak to Contagion. Is it pure fantasy to imagine an epidemic wiping out humanity? Or is it something we need to prepare for? Popular science writer Carl Zimmer will attempt to answer by looking at the history of real virus outbreaks and at cutting-edge research on previously unknown viruses that could potentially attack our species in the future.

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
Opens Friday, December 16, regular run

2hr 07mins // directed by:Tomas Alfredson // featuring:Gary Oldman, John Hurt, Colin Firth, Thomas Hardy

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is the long-awaited feature film version of John le Carré’s classic bestselling novel. The thriller is directed by Tomas Alfredson (Let the Right One In). The screenplay adaptation is by the writing team of Bridget O’Connor & Peter Straughan.

The time is 1973. The Cold War of the mid-20th Century continues to damage international relations. Britain’s Secret Intelligence Service (SIS), a.k.a. MI6 and code-named the Circus, is striving to keep pace with other countries’ espionage efforts and to keep the U.K. secure. The head of the Circus, known as Control (John Hurt), personally sends dedicated operative Jim Prideaux (Mark Strong) into Hungary. But Jim’s mission goes bloodily awry, and Control is forced out of the Circus – as is his top lieutenant, George Smiley (Gary Oldman), a career spy with razor-sharp senses.

Estranged from his absent wife Ann, Smiley is soon called in to see undersecretary Oliver Lacon (Simon McBurney); he is to be rehired in secret at the government’s behest, as there is a gnawing fear that the Circus has long been compromised by a double agent, or mole, working for the Soviets and jeopardizing England. Supported by younger agent Peter Guillam (Benedict Cumberbatch), Smiley parses Circus activities past and present. In trying to track and identify the mole, Smiley is haunted by his decades-earlier interaction with the shadowy Russian spy master Karla.

The mole’s trail remains cold until maverick field agent Ricki Tarr (Tom Hardy) unexpectedly contacts Lacon. While undercover in Turkey, Ricki has fallen for a betrayed married woman, Irina (Svetlana Khodchenkova), who claims to possess crucial intelligence. Separately, Smiley learns that Control narrowed down the list of mole suspects to five men. They are the ambitious Percy Alleline (Toby Jones), whom he had code-named Tinker; suavely confident Bill Haydon (Colin Firth), dubbed Tailor; stalwart Roy Bland (Ciarán Hinds), called Soldier; officious Toby Esterhase (David Dencik), dubbed Poor Man; and – Smiley himself.

Even before the startling truth is revealed, the emotional and physical tolls on the players enmeshed in the deadly international spy game will escalate…
(this looks awesome btw)

I'll post more next week.

2012 is looking amazing for midnites, The Terminator, Battle Royale, The Holy Mountain and many more!
