Andromeda Strain is a good one. Looking forward to it

Cactus Tony

I was thiiisss close. Congrats Michael.

Garry L

How about “The Wheel of Schmittune?”

Toc

Cool! That's going to be a fun one! Congrats to Mr. Seaney!

Paul Cox

After knowing ~of~ it for decades, I finally watched The Andromeda Strain during the height of lockdown. Optimal timing, lol!

Dryfesands

"The Andromeda Strain" is a belter. A really good movie. Someone do us a favor and get "Day of the Jackal" on the list. :-)

Jason Dolan

I’m gonna go with Shaney as the pronunciation and Andromeda Strain is from the same mind who created Jurassic Park

Jason Dolan

More like The Schmittwheel of Misfortune ( for everyone who doesn’t win, lol ) 😭

Chris Bruneau

Congrats!! I have never seen this one, so looking forward to it!!!

James Miley

Have heard of The Andromeda Strain but haven’t seen it or read the book. It was written by Michael Crichton, who also wrote Jurassic Park among other things. Also, I would stick with the Wheel of Schmitt for the monthly picks.

Paul Cox

"Wheel of Schmitt" sounds very Monty Python to me for some reason. In my head, I can even hear John Cleese saying it.

Jax

Great choice Michael!

Smooticus

Haven't seen Andromeda Strain in almost 20 years. Great flick and highly recommend the book for anyone who has some reading time

Andy

He also was an actual MD and helped create the show ER. I've read a bunch of his books, and I think the movies did really well bringing them to screen.

Michael Seaney

Last minute entry… almost forgot to enter as well 😂 Thanks all, hope you like something a little different. It was a choice between Doctor Zhivago, Zulu, The Haunting (60s version) or this! @Sam, don’t worry about pronunciation of name. Spent 10 mins on the doorstep with postman telling me I was pronouncing it wrong 😂 I say see-ney. Thinks it’s descended from Irish surname O’ceeney! Hope you enjoy! Loving the reactions! Hope you’re feeling better from the Flu 🤧 too.

Michael Seaney

I’ve several of his books too… great read!

Guston Zimasheen

Congratulations Michael. Before I heard "1971" I was wondering which version you'd chosen. I loved the book, and the various TV & Movie versions are usually pretty good. The synchronised "Michael" from Daniel and Sam cracked me up.

Samolina Pilchard

Awesome! Can't wait! I watched this so many times on TV growing up!

ElmSt Reactions

Congrats, don't think I've heard of this movie

Deano

Watching you two try and figure out the start some 4 months or so in is such a highlight ❤️

Jen Barnes

Congrats! I've never seen it, but I'm loving all the variety of these picks.

David Wilkins

A solid choice that I haven’t seen for many moons.

KeithJ

Excellent film. Really kinda spooked me watching it as a kid!

TBR Schmitt

Congratulations, Michael! We’re excited to check it out! And thanks so much, feeling much better! -Sam

Ron

Congrats, Michael! Great movie!

Michael Seaney

I did also consider Colossus the Forbin project (which is very relevant to the current AI development.) This, however is very difficult to get on any streaming services!

Jay Davis

Nice! A classic... just prepare your ears. That's all I'ma say.

Jeff B.

Another classic choice courtesy of the Schmitt-wheel. This is a great device for mixing things up!

Skyler Thomas

Really good pull. Perfect example of why this is such a good idea.

Donna Castellano

How do you put in a suggestion for a monthly movie drawing? I just upgraded my Patreon membership and would love to throw my suggestion on the wheel.
