Fanboys Anonymous

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 March 2020?

Which films make the cut?

6. The Way Back / The Roads Not Taken — I have no interest in either. Flip a coin.

5. My Spy — There's no way I'm seeing this, but it does have Batista in it and since I cover pro wrestling over on Smark Out Moment and other avenues, I'd get more out of seeing this and approaching it from that angle than some of the other movies.

4. Mulan — To be honest, I haven't even seen the original. It never appealed to me. This doesn't, either, but it's a bad month for movies.

3. Bloodshot — As I've mentioned before when I thought Bloodshot was coming out in February, this is a movie based on a comic book that has actiony superhero-esque elements to it. By default, that's more my speed than a lot of other things, so I'll check it out at some point, even if I don't see it in theaters.

2. Onward — This seems cute and I can't help but assume any Pixar movie deserves the benefit of the doubt that it will be at least decent, if not great.

1. A Quiet Place Part II — I really enjoyed the first one. You bet I'm seeing this.
