Hey everyone! I hope you're all having a cozy, peaceful start to your week. I've got a really fun lineup ahead; plus some exciting updates I want to share with you!First up- Battlestar Galactica officially won the latest shows poll! I'm really excited to get into this world for the first time. I'll be putting up a conversation post later today, so if you're a BSG fan or have any must-know tips for a first-time watcher, definitely keep an eye out for that and feel free to chime in. I'd love to hear your thoughts as we move into that series! I plan to start it next week.Also, on the horizon- I'm gearing up to officially start my journey into Star Wars! I'll be starting around the last week of this month, but I'll keep you posted if I decide to move it up a week. Over the weekend, I'll be putting out another conversation post, where we can all openly discuss how to best watch the films (release order? chronological? machete?) and any must-know tips for a beginner going into the series. I'm super excited to finally watch these films!! I've heard SO much about them but never got into them myself. I did watch Mandalorian Season 1 when it was hyped up and loved it! But honestly didn't know what was going on most of the time or who anyone was lol. Now for this week's watch list!📺 WandaVision - Episodes 5 & 6Can't wait to keep going with this one. It's been a really crazy fun ride so far, and now that some of the mystery is starting to unfold, I'm even more excited to dive deeper into what's really going on in Westview.🎟️ Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid | Movie Ticket This one is another Movie Ticket pick, and it'll be my first official western watch! Unless we are counting Back to the Future Part III lol. I'm really looking forward to watching it for the first time! Great pick!!🎟️ The Illusionist | Movie TicketAnother awesome Movie Ticket pick, and it has Edward Norton in it 🔥 So you know I'm already all in here lol. Really looking forward to seeing where this story takes me. Based on the cover art alone, I'm intrigued. 🗡️ Gladiator | Poll Winner!I've heard so many great things and tons of recommendations for this film. I'm finally about to see what all the hype is about! I noticed there is both a theatrical version and an extended edition - for this first watch, I'm going with the theatrical cut. Maybe I'll return to the extended version a year from now for a revisit! (I got this idea from when I was watching LoTR but decided to go straight into the deep dive with that one. Figured I'll give it a try this way now! Let me know your thoughts though, of course!Sooo much good stuff on the way, and I'm thankful to have you all here to share it with! Keep an eye out for those conversation posts for BSG and Star Wars throughout the week. I'm really looking forward to chatting with you all about both of those new adventures. Thank you for helping me get the most out of them! As always, thank you for being here, for your support, and for making this space such a joy to be a part of ❤️ Hope you have a lovely week ahead!

Love the lineup! Hope you're doing well.

Hi Kali, hope you’re having a great day so far Looks like an excellent week ahead! My only advice would be please watch the Star Wars films in release order. I’ve seen a few reactors watch them in chronological order and I believe they did a huge disservice to themselves

Omg there is *so much* cool stuff coming this month! For this week, I'm pretty sure I've seen The Illusionist sometime a while ago and loved it, but can't remember haha. But I'm always so ready for another Edward Norton film! Also, super excited you're finally starting Star Wars!! I'd also 1000% recommend doing release order. Like it's actually really really important for this series. Just as a fair warning, for some of the more recent movies and series, there's a lot of opinions swirling around them, much like phase 4 MCU haha. So I'd just suggest, as you've done with Marvel, to keep an open mind and watch what you want to watch :)

What a great lineup. Haven't watched The Illusionist in years so looking forward to a rewatch.

Richard

Oh wow what an eclectic lineup! This should be fun. Looks like we might get a killer 3-episode WandaVision finale next week; buckle up for that because a lot happens. Definitely looking forward to your take on episodes 5 and 6 this week. Very excited for you to get into the Star Wars saga; that sure oughta boost your profile on YouTube. Cant’t wait for the conversation!

Congrats to the BSG winners, really gave the other choices a good whoopin'. Theatrical cut for Gladiator is better IMO, not getting much more to the story with the other. Solid movie ticket request, I'm sure Kali will enjoy it.

Curaitis

second that. theatrical cut makes more sense.

really happy BSG won, its a fantastic Scifi series. just remember to watch the miniseries first. also looking forward to Gladiator and SW. i would recomend that you watch starwars in release order... its the way we all first saw it, and i feel there are some small spoilers if you watch in any other order. Imho

Curaitis

Great week ahead. Cant wait. In regards to Star Wars...release order is imho always the way to go for a "first watch" , and for a rewatch the chronological Order. Although there is one exception , atleast if you plan to watch Clone Wars as well. Its a great show and gives a lot of story, character development and background and if you plan to, you should go with this watch order.... https://www.starwars.com/news/star-wars-the-clone-wars-chronological-episodeorder

Looking forward to frackin BSG! Get used to that word "frackin" lol. Gladiator won't disappoint! Have your tissues handy. As an old timer, I believe the best way to watch Star Wars is still in release order, it's the way everyone experienced it from the start in 1977, I know some younger folk out there may prefer the prequels 1st but I think knowing the original trilogy 1st is a better experience. But really, what do I know? lol.

There's no better day to start a Star Wars journey than May 4th.

McShades

All Time Classic, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid... A must watch for any movie enthusiast. How can it be possible you never saw Star Wars!!! I thought you were a true nerd, now I'm having doubts, :P
