Well, it's not a preview per se, since some of these movies are already out, but here's what's on my list (in no particular order):
1. Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (out now): The W&G short films are hilarious and Chicken Little was damn funny. Looking forward to getting out to the theater for this one.
2. Elizabethtown (out now): From the description, it sounds a lot like Garden State. I absolutely love that movie, but I'll give this one a chance.
3. Serenity (out now): I want to see this, but feel I should watch all of the TV series first. So, I may have to catch this on DVD somewhere down the line.
4. The Exorcism of Emily Rose (out now): I've blogged about this movie and my wussiness regarding "Satan movies", but have yet to see it. Maybe I'll be in the Halloween spirit and head to the theater. I still have yet to see The Nightmare Before Christmas.
5. Corpse Bride (out now): Tim Burton. Johnny Depp. Stop-motion animation. Necrophilia. Yeah, I'm so there.
6. Waiting (out now): I've been a fan of Ryan Reynolds since "Two Guys and a Girl." This looks like Office Space, only with more dick and fart jokes.
7. The Baxter (out now?): A romantic comedy revolving around the prototypical "nice guy." It got a beat down from the critics, but this movie is a product of the brain trust behind "The State," "Stella," and Wet Hot American Summer, so it naturally made my list. I think it's come and gone, so this looks like a rental.
8. Shopgirl (Oct. 21): Maybe this is foolish, but I'm hoping that Steve Martin will someday go back to making good movies. Could this be this year's Lost in Translation?
9. Jarhead (Nov. 4): I'm prepared to see an anti-war movie (this is Hollywood, after all), but the trailer has me hooked.
10. Walk the Line (Nov. 18): As I am a huge Johnny Cash fan, this is probably my most anticipated movie of the season. The poster is great. I'll be buying that someday, I'm sure.
11. Just Friends (Nov. 23): The aforementioned Ryan Reynolds in a fat suit and a title phrase I've heard too many times. Sold.
12. The Weather Man (Oct. 28): I'll see pretty much anything Nicolas Cage is in.
Just as I didn't see everything on my summer movie list, I'll likely not see everything posted above. But I'm going to try.

Hi,
Nice to see another movie fan.
Don't know if you know about hsx.com, its a cool movie based game, but they give you great informaton on upcoming movies.
I added you to my bookmarks. Look forward to seeing more!
jsdye - I'm thinking that's the first movie on my list that I'll go out and see. I have yet to hear anything bad about it.
bond hunter - Thanks for stopping by. I've been playing HSX for years. My current balance is $20.5 million (I got in on the new Superman for $3.63/share). If only that was real...
hmmm...
is this a new type of spam?
oh, no meat in the whole movie. and at this stage right now, that would definitely be a negative.
