Even though it feels like the world of streaming has taken over, going to the cinema is still an experience. The atmospheric sound, the massive screen, and of course eating all of your popcorn before halftime. In November, we have instalments of the Marvel universe and The Hunger Games to enjoy, as well as an outback thriller set at an Aussie pub. Here’s a list of the hotly anticipated films dropping in Australian cinemas this month.
