While the website does have all the films listed, they are not listed by date, which is important to those wanting to come up for a weekend and who need to pick between all the movies.
I have done my best to sort through the movies and list them by date, best to check with the official site before making any plans based on these dates.

What does this mean to me? September already a wash-out unless I go up for the weekend of the Federal Election.
October a better option with the weekend of the 4 – 6th, 18 – 20th and 25th – 27th available. I already have a ticket to the Handsome Family on the 12th in Melbourne. Watching the four movies listed on 12th October is highly recommended. Be aware that if you recently have had an ear infection, Election 2 can cause physical pain to your body.
November looks good for the Melbourne Cup Weekend, but a lot of people are already going away that weekend.
I am well aware of how much it will cost to fly up to Brisbane for the weekend, but these movies are not going to screen again in this format in Australia.
