Abraham

If you do Karate kid I’d like to see you see all three movies and the spin-off show

Chris H

Think about it everyone. Would Scarface really lend itself to a good reaction from Nat?

Ian

For the love of god anything but scarface plz 🙏

Nautilus1492

I hope so much for Predator!!

David Bennett

Natalie, I would love to watch both robocop AND predator with you, I think you will enjoy both films. But if I have to PICK one, I would go with predator first…..

Randee Carreno

Happy Wednesday, Natalie! 😊 All great choices. As much as I want to see you react to "E.T.", "The Karate Kid 100% got my vote. Have a great day today! 😊 Stay Golden! 💛

Mike Hell

Damn I know Scarface has been requested a bunch of times but I think I’d prefer Predator instead. Or Robocop. That’d prob be a fun reaction. These are all good choices, though.

Jason Gillman

Voting for Robocop but I’ll switch to Predator to beat Karate Kid if needed. Robocop is one of my favorite movies so I’m hoping that’ll pull ahead.

Lisa Tosti

Cobra Kai is AMAZING!!!!

REDR58

Out of all of these choices, I’d rather watch Predator, RoboCop and Karate Kid before watching ET and Scarface again. Not that ET and Scarface are bad but they are not something I need to see very often.

Nick Freer

Get to da chopper Nat !!

Chris Cooper

First poll where my answer is "watch all of them"!

John Piazza

YES! Finally Karate Kid will win a poll

mrhalfbit

Yeah honestly any of these except Scarface

Abraham

I know she doesn’t like oversaturating her channel with one thing though :(((

Abraham

I haven’t been watching her channel in a while because I just haven’t seen her watching anything really standout. Just my opinion though

Jacketb

Karate Kid vs Predator, the 80s mashup we didn't know we needed...

Diiirk706

Robocop needs wayyy moar Love...... But honestly I NEEEED Nat to react to Cobra Kai SO bad, sohhhhh.............

Daniel Green

If Predator doesn’t get up, we riot

Jeff K.

Certainly not, but it's not a series (I'm talking about the overall franchise) that, like, REQUIRES someone to watch them all in quick succession, so I could see her spreading the original trilogy (while ignoring the Hilary Swank movie and the remake) out and then doing Cobra Kai similar to how she's done Lasso. Just a few episodes at a time, a few weeks apart, etc.

Daniel Green

Predator is one of the great action films. Directed by the same man who directed Die Hard one year later. It’s brilliantly simple, efficient in plot movement and entertaining. In my opinion, the best action film ever made.

Jeff K.

Karate Kid is by far my top choice, but after that, it's Predator. (I think Scarface is overrated, I can't stand ET, and RoboCop is... fine, and has actually aged well in terms of its satire.)

Jeff K.

I'd bet my life that Miyagi could come out on top in that one.

SmokeAndACoffee

Scarface is one of those classics that just didn't age well at all. It was amazing for the time it came out; the action, drugs, sex, violence, etc... but it's poorly shot, the editing and pacing are terrible, and the script is pretty laughable at times. If anyone other than Al Pacino had been the lead, it would be a no-name film that no one remembered. Still worth a watch just for the sheer amount of references and influence it has on other media, and of course, Al xD

Abraham

I agree 💯. I just sorta lost interest in her channel after she decided a while back she wasn’t going to do longer shows and franchises.

Alan Felicia

Voted for E.T. as I've never seen it ever especially since I'm a Nerd LOL! Hoping Karate Kids wins the poll since IMO the best movie that will have a fun reaction from Nat! 80s movies just has cheesy vibes LOL! And those were my teen years thus the reason I love & enjoy Stranger Things! Oh, just a reminder to Nat, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 is available on Digital LOL!

Darryl Low

Happy Wednesday Nat. Its finally time to get to da choppa! 😄 Have an awesome day Nat 💛

Sean Obrock

I ain't got time to bleed as I wax on/wax off, but please say hello to my little friend, ED-209, who really likes Reese's Pieces.

UngawdlyJish

I definitely voted more selfish this round. Personally it was a toss up between Predator and Robocop. I really don't want to watch Karate Kid again. I couldn't finish Cobra Kai as the cringe just got too high for me. I feel Scare Face wouldn't be a good reaction. But I don't think Nat would have a bad time with any of these films.

Jim Lent

I was just thinking yesterday, The Karate Kid would be a perfect movie for Nat to watch. It's almost surprising how good it is.

Misty Crom

So torn between Karate Kid as 1. excuse to rewatch, 2. classic 80s and C. might lead to Cobra Kai, but.... Had to go Predator. Can't beat some classic Arnie!

Skizane

I'm going with Predator here, it's a classic. Robocop is a masterpiece, but I think Natalie would be traumatized by its violence.

Daniel McGuinness

I voted predator cos I’m a horror stan and it’s a classic - also meme history Unrelated but I hope when some space is free in a poll you consider adding Star Wars: The Clone Wars 🤞🏻 some of the best Star Wars content out there!

Patrick Egan

I’m a little sad that E.T. isn’t getting more love, it’s such a wonderful film. If it doesn’t win I’m hoping for Predator, if only so it can eventually lead to a Prey reaction.

Andy Jordan

I was a little disheartened that Karate Kid didn't do better in the last poll, so hopefully it wins this time. Daniel and Mr. Miyagi may just be my favorite cinematic friendship of all-time. If she can start the Karate Kid path, hopefully it may eventually lead her to Cobra Kai one day, maybe the best legacy revival of the last 10, 15 years.

Logan Kerlee

Love these options! I'll be happy with any of the leaders winning but my vote's for Scarface. It's the film that I proposed a good bit ago and it's what I'm most interested in seeing a reaction to. :)

Adam Doyle

I personally do not see E.T. holding up. I recently rewatched it and while well filmed and acted, the story and pacing just dragged on for me. Some movies just are better as old memories

That’s Not Acting

I'm with Logan on Scarface. But I'd be happy with The Karate Kid, too. Robocop is just such generic 80's/90's shoot-em-up action flick and Predator isn't much better. I would still really like to see her get back to the Rocky franchise at some point.

Vince Ledezma

No offense to anyone but Scarface sux, just my opinion

Logan Kerlee

I'll always prefer The Terminator over Predator but that's me! I'm biased because I watched The Terminator when I was suuuuuuuuuuuper young! I also watched Predator young as well but not nearly as young as the other, Plus - come on! Arnie's always a bad ass, but I'll always prefer the cyborg to the man.

FoH Film Club

What’s up with this list sooo many great 80s flicks idk about these choices 😆 can I write in The Outsiders, Raging Bull, Beverly Hills Cop, Do the Right Thing, When Harry Met Sally, (some Nat might have reacted to already) my memory ain’t what it used to be 😆

MertzRocks

Wow I literally got the noti SECONDS ago and find 40+ comments lol! Natalie, I think Predator and Karate Kid will be 1 & 2... maybe do both? You'll like both I'm sure.

Logan Kerlee

I'm a huge Scarface fan but I'll agree with you in that Pacino carries it. If it wasn't for him the movie wouldn't be nearly as great as it is. I do enjoy the soundtrack quite a bit though. I'm not even from the era the movie came out in - I was born in 88. I'll always feel that the movie's excellent and I"ll be the guy that introduces his friends to it.

Logan Kerlee

This comment is amazing! xD Love it!!

Choof

Really hoping for Predator, it's a great "reaction" movie

TONYA JACKSON

The Burbs! I know it's not on the poll but maybe for a future one. I adore this movie! 😁

Richard Maurer

Don't count your karate chickens before they hatch.

Mike Hell

She has heavily implied that Friday’s movie is GotG3

Richard Maurer

She watched Hereditary and is doing fine. I don't think Robocop would even bother her.

Dale Smith

You've seen the alien movies so Predator gets my vote. They do share a universe after all ;)

Mike Hell

I just realized: if Nat was a fan of That 70s Show then watching Robocop would be… interesting 😉

Richard Maurer

I voted Robocop then changed to my second choice, Predator, since it has better chance of beating Karate Kid. I don't hate Karate Kid but I'd rather see a reaction to Predator or Robocop.

Tiger Chu

Top Gun for next time hopefully

Vexkun

Predator!

Richard Maurer

@ AC555 - With two series I don't care about running simultaneously, I've been hoping to at least get some Friday movies I could enjoy. But so far it's been movies I haven't seen yet (I don't do first watches with reactors) or movies I don't care about. So I'm hoping Predator wins (or Robocop comes from behind) so I'll finally have something to watch.

dieselbeast

I'm sad my fellow patrons don't share the same love for Scarface as I do, I mean who doesn't want to see Al Pacino at any given time!, eh what are you gonna do, this is how the chips fall I suppose, Hopefully one day, I love Arnold but predator is too much action not enough storytelling character development imo, if its not Scarface I hope karate kid wins

Edward Rahardjo

I think Robocop would make a better reaction video. But Predator is a solid choice aswell

Alan Felicia

don't say that? LOL! now you're getting my hopes up! I'm going to keep thinking Friday's movie will be something Random like Free Guy. LOL!

David Sumner

Scarface is the most violent because it's based the most in reality. Robocop is decent but I don't think it's great.

LightsCameraJake

These are all amazing movies, but I think the one with the best shock value and would warrant the best reaction is Scarface. That movie is just perfectly written and acted all the way through. Though it won't win because all the other movies are the stereotypical reaction winners in the reaction space and the blockbuster hits

dieselbeast

yeah its unfortunate but maybe one day

Cody Steele

Uh oh, choosing between Predator and Robocop is like choosing between my children.

Skizane

Maybe I'm projecting because I saw Robocop for the first time at a very young age and was pretty scared by it myself. The guy with his skin melting off from the toxic waste gave me nightmares for months, along with Murphy getting dismembered by shotgun fire early in the film.

Mastervodo

Once Natalie has seen the original Predator, maybe we can sneak in the Alien vs. Predator movie! Nat is gonna like Predator. Solid movie all around. Still holds up decades later. So excited!

giovanni colombo

Shame to see Robocop not getting enough love here, but Predator is still a fun time! Btw I don't know if you take suggestions other than polls here (maybe if I had a higher membership? I haven't checked) but if you do, I'd love for you to react to the One Piece Live Action Series when it comes out (August 31).

Roook

If you do Predator I highly recommend watching Prey after. It's great.

Yoda

Jeff K.

Agreed. Some people will say that she would need to watch Predator 2 since there's an Easter egg from that in Prey, but I don't think it's necessary honestly. I also don't think Predator 2 is a particularly good movie, but that's just me. Prey, meanwhile, is great.

Baggie Mark

I think people are just picking the films that will make Nat jump the most lol..

Jeff K.

I can tell you exactly the moment, if Natalie watched the show and got that far, that she would bow out from ever watching it again. And everyone who has watched the show knows exactly the moment I'm talking about. I cannot imagine Nat ever coming back from that incident.

Cuttlefish

As incredible and enjoyable I think you would personally find Karate Kid to be, I can't not vote for Predator. One of my favorite movies ever, with possibly the best movie monster to ever grace cinema. I hope you end up appreciating it and loving it as much as I do.

Jack Burton

Nah. Predator is just a good fing movie. There aren't many jump scares in the movie at all. It's just tension and action. One of the best 80's action flicks period.

Jack Burton

I agree with this sentiment. Watching them together is a fun time.

Jason Hallett

Robocop is one of my favourite films, so this vote's an easy one for me.

Jo

I've given up hope of TGM

James Hull

I also voted Robocop, bc I'd buy that for a dollar!

Jenny Tolls

I just want Scarface to win one poll 😪

Harry Reece

All great. But I had to go for the out and out best all round film. But I’m currently in the minority. Come On E.T.! Not going to happen is it 😞

Katrina

I want Karate Kid so she can watch Corbra Kai lol

overdev

Stay out of trouble

Byron

Oooo… Cage match between Karate Kid and Predator!

Zavooloo

As I clicked my vote for Predator I had a momentary montage of Nat screaming "oh god no"s "what the f**k"s and "bleghhghgh"s through my head

Shen V

Yeah, Predator 2 is a hot (pun intended) mess. That's why I'd want her to see it! I don't get this obsession with everyone always just "making" her watch all the amazing movies. That's like doing a landscape painting and only using red. Watch more crazy and baffling movies, Nat. Full of dumb decisions, weaker effects, and ... Gary Busey!! Come on.

Cody Steele

It's alright, I picked Predator. Robocop was skipping school last week. #favoritekid

Cody Steele

I'm sure she'll get to it eventually. It's a classic of classics.

REDR58

Predator 2 and of course Prey are worth a watch. I’d stop there.

JayObliviate

Natalie has said on her live streams on her 2nd channel that she used to watch The Walking Dead when it was really popular back in the day so she's most likely watched the first 3-5 seasons already and imo the rest aren't worth reacting to since the show drops off rapidly with season 7 and I know it gets better with season 9 but man it's just not the same

Jordan Love

How come nobody ever reacts to Little Nicky (2000)? I never even see it in a poll.

Tim D.

All are movies I could watch again. Scarface is probably the most dated in terms of how it would play today.

Michael G. Munz

The Karate Kid and Predator are essentially the same movie anyway. ;)

Mastervodo

Sweep the leg, Arnold!

Jeff K.

@Mastervodo: "Come on! Do it! Kill me, I'm here!" - Daniel, to the Cobra Kai crew, at the Halloween dance

Wild_Lee_Coyote

It was a tossup between Predator and Karate Kid, but for me Prey is the sequel that you have to watch.

Gabriel Lozano, WLC

I chose "Predator", but it was actually a tie between that movie and "Robocop".

Robert Miller

Karate Kid, one of the best trilogies (the others don't matter) made. Then can get into Cobra Kai Netflix series!

Mastervodo

I am on board with those who say Predator and then Prey.

EldrinJak

Does anyone know if Natalie has seen The Truman Show? Good movie.

Logan Kerlee

lol, yup! I figured that the poll would go this route. I said earlier that all of the picks were winners in my book. so I'm not upset. One day - I hope that she'll wind up watching Scarface! That's a movie that I'd love to see a reaction for.

jamie jones

Robocop would be by far the best reaction

Baggie Mark

Agreed... but I still think Nat will jump at certain points of the film lol.. definitely worth watching with Nat.

Thomas Richter

Finally, Predator is winning!!!! It's a Great Sci-Fi Action Horror!

Baron Imhoof

Definitely react to Prey after Predator, or before since it's a prequel.

Stephen K

100% this. Predator and Prey are the only movies in the franchise that I would really classify as good and worth a watch.

Erik Stevenson

Hopefully Predator winning means a reaction to Prey is in the cards eventually!

Richard Maurer

The Wolfman with Lon Chaney Jr' scared me when I was six. Now, literally thousands of horror films later, very little in movies can scare me. You can't go by what scared you as a kid.

john Alexander

I love all these so this was a hard poll

Richard Maurer

Yeah, I went with predator as it has the best chance of winning.

Skizane

I think that's a pretty ridiculous comparison, to be frank. Robocop had to be cut several times and re-submitted to the ratings board in order to avoid an X rating because its violence was so excessive and disturbing. Even with its R rating it's still infamous for it's violence. People look at the wolfman today and think it's quaint and charming that it used to scare children. Even forty years after it was released, Robocop stands apart as one of the most violent action films ever made. And I really doubt that Natalie, our little ball of sunshine who hates horror movies and has to force herself to watch three or four of them once a year, is going to have the same reaction to Robocop's violence as you do, someone who is a horror fan and has watched thousands of horror films willingly and enjoys them.

LightsCameraJake

I can't believe the movie about getting to the chopper is winning. This will be fun 😁

Jeff K.

@AngelAlCapone - Ah! So if she used to watch it but stopped, I wouldn't be surprised if it was *that* moment that made her stop. I know that was what sent a ton of people off the bandwagon. (I realize it was a scene straight out of the comics, with a slight extra alteration/addition, but the way they handled it as a season finale cliffhanger will be studied in film schools for how NOT to do things.)

Jeff K.

I would just like to say I am going to move forward, every time I see your screen name on these posts, assuming you are the phenomenal, Academy Award-winning actor who just happens to spend his downtime watching Nat's reactions.

Richard Maurer

"one of the best trilogies made" - yep, that's a opinion alright.

Richard Maurer

So now we're just skipping MCU movies too? No Quantumania reaction? Well isn't that just great. This channel's been a real disappointment lately.

Richard Maurer

It's not ridiculous at all. The point is that things that scared you as a child don't necessarily still scare you as an adult, or at least they shouldn't. What film it was is irrelevant, you grow up and realize that it only affected you because you were a child and it played on certain specific fears you had at that time. And the violence in Robocop isn't even that bad compared to a lot of action films. Sure, it makes all the "most violent action films ever made" lists but if you've seen the other films on those lists you know it barely even belongs there. You even said yourself that you may have been projecting as you saw it at a very young age - which I'm pretty sure is correct.

Jacob King

Voting for Robocop because it is the best but I want to join the chorus of people saying Prey needs to be reacted to after Predator.

John Rando

Prequels are meant to be seen after

Erik Stevenson

At this point if people want her to watch TGM, they should just be saying that. It's a good enough movie that you don't actually have to have seen the original to understand what's happening. Sure, it connects some dots, but even if Nat sees the original she's not going to have the actual nostalgia that a lot of people have for it.

Tiresome Rhinox

I wanna see you do the 4 Karate Kid movies, then watch Cobra Kai

kenneth

I finally voted on a movie thats winning lol. I love Predator! As a kid I was terrified of this movie though. I remember about to see P2 as a little kid with my dad and older brothers. At the last minute I chickened out and said I couldn't watch it lol. My mom took me to see Problem Child instead (great comedy). Eventually I saw P2 and loved it, almost as much as P1.

History Nuggets

It astonishes me that Robocop isn't doing better. It's one of the best action, sci-fi, and satire films ever made.

Logan Kerlee

Not surprised at all, being honest. I'd of loved for Scarface to win but I don't see that happening any time soon. It's all good though! I love each of these movies! :)

Wild_Lee_Coyote

I would also suggest Nimona. It is a great movie that almost didn’t get made but has a great story everyone should know.

ivan

Karate Kid, Robocop, and Predator ALL have to be watched. Essential movies. Recent stuff can be pushed back. There’s so many classics that you should watch. Definitely watch all of the movies on that poll (sooner rather than later) and the suggestions in these comments. Someone mentioned the Truman show. Brilliant movie. Seriously, watch the classics.

Checo Lara

For next suggest True Romance from Tony Scott a very interesting 90's movie, the scrip was written by Quentin Tarantino
