Seems like more and more these days that new movies are starting on Wednesday rather than the traditional Friday release.  And for the record two movies opened on Wednesday:  ‘Lawless’ and ‘The Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure.’ I hate to say this but the Oogieloves characters kind of creep me out. Speaking about being creeped out, the Friday release is "The Possession" need I say more.

Think I'll go with the bootleggers movie "Lawless."

Lawless’ is a true tale of Prohibition-era bootlegging brothers stars Shia LaBeouf, Tom Hardy (Bane from The Dark Knight Rises), Guy Pearce, Jessica Chastain, Jason Clarke and Mia Wasikowska.

The Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure’ is the musical Oogieloves search for a magical balloon in the family adventure with Christopher Lloyd, Chazz Palminteri, Cary Elwes, Cloris Leachman and Jaime Pressly.

In ‘The Possession,’ a box from a yard sale unleashes supernatural trouble for a family in the supposedly based-in-truth horror flick with Natasha Calis, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Kyra Sedgwick and Grant Show.

Here’s a sneak peek.
