6 Flicks Picks for October 2017 Movie Release Schedule

Posted by Anthony Mango Sunday, October 1, 2017
Welcome to another edition of 6 Flicks Picks, wherein I list all of the upcoming films that are scheduled to be released in the United States for the month which is about to begin and break down which ones I'll be watching in theaters, which ones I'll wait to rent at home, and which ones I'll be skipping out on entirely. After going through the list, I'll choose which six films stand out to me as the ones I want to see the most, even if there are more or less than six that interest me.

Note: The list below is based primarily off the expanded nationwide USA release dates on IMDB as well as some other random outlets if possible, so some information may be different. If I am missing some of the limited releases or the dates conflict in some fashion, please let me know in the comments below and any adjustments and corrections will be made!

Without further ado, another new month means another new set of films, so what's coming soon to theaters in October 2017?

6 FLICKS PICKS

Well, woof. This is a bad month. I mean, really bad. I actually don't plan on seeing a single one of these movies in theaters. But hey, that's what makes this kind of fun sometimes, so let's give it a shot anyway and see which films make the cut.

6. The Snowman — Mother! looks like it's trying too hard and I wasn't as into Black Swan as other people were. Jigsaw...well, I learned my lesson with the previous films, so there's no way you're convincing me that this will be good. At least The Snowman has some potential.

5. Geostorm — This is clearly insane.

4. All I See is You — More so than any drama in the film itself, I'm more nervous about people overreacting to the movie and bitching and complaining that this is offensive to blind people.

3. The Foreigner — This is a horror heavy month, and I'm not a fan of that genre. Give me generic action over generic horror any day, even if a generic action film tends to be kind of blah. Jackie Chan is fun, though.

2. The Mountain Between Us — Normally, I don't like tension films, because I don't go to the movies to feel nervous. That's not my ideal form of entertainment. However, I was more into this trailer than all the others, for some reason.

1. Blade Runner 2049 — Admittedly, I fell asleep watching Blade Runner and it took me two times to watch it and I still didn't understand what was so great about it. It's been years since I've seen it, so maybe if I revisited it, I would appreciate it more, now that I'm older and more attuned. Generally speaking, this is the film that has a premise and a style that is much more my speed than anything else, so it tops the list.
