Some of you might know I'm in New York for a bit this month so I will post the first two May watch-alongs early next week. 

If I get tied up genre-wise I plan on posing some polls! Thanks for bearing with me through my vacation :)  

I plan to go down the list of these bad boys: 

Field of Dreams

Die Hard with Vengence 

Edward Scissorhands 

Men In Black (probably definitely doing 1 this month, then 2 another) 

A Few Good Men 

Jay and Silent Bob 

True Romance 

Others for a comedic shakeup (WILDCARD BABY)

American Pie 2 

Shaun of the Dead 

Best in Show

Talk to me below about these (which of these NEED to live on my channel?) 

Mean Streets 

Taxi Driver

Heat 

The Town 

The Italian Job

Most people are going to say Taxi Driver, but I think Heat is equally as brilliant but the subject matter isn't near as dark as Taxi Driver. Some of the best directing and performances I've seen are in Heat, but Taxi Driver is no slouch. Ultimately, do you want a character study or a riveting crime epic?

Jerry Almonte

My vote is for Heat. DeNiro vs Pacino before they became caricatures of themselves. Plus A++ supporting cast

Kindbeat

Taxi Driver is a cultural must, looking forward to Best in Show

Paul Cox

I agree with smithfan22. Heat is tops. Taxi Driver can come later (if at all).

Heat, just because the writing is phenomenal. And the actions sequences set the bar. And the cinematography is gorgeous. And the sound design is epic. Not sure what I can say about the acting. Oh, wait: Pacino and DeNiro facing off against each other!

Elliot Nesterman

"The Italian Job," the original not the useless remake. You won't find a finer caper comedy. That said, "Taxi Driver" is the most significant to cinema history.

Peter Register

I have no objections to any of these.

Kevin Charley

I say Taxi Driver and Heat you should watch for sure. Watch Taxi Driver and Dog Day Afternoon and then watch Heat. Also, if/when you watch Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back there is a very short after credits scene

Adam Doyle

Mean Streets: A classic but slow and unfocused at times. Good performances thought might not be great for a wide audience appeal. Taxi Driver: Dark and Gritty, is great from a film critics perspective, of which you are, but again, the themes might limit your viewer numbers Heat: Great Action Heist movie, with great cinematography, and score. A fun one for fans of shootouts. The Town: Very much in the same vein as Heat, but with more grit than finesse. Both worth a watch, but maybe space them apart. The Italian Job: Fun lighter fare heist, more along the lines of Ocean's 11. Wide audience appeal and an easy watch.

Adam Doyle

Before watching Best in Show, an earlier and equally good Christopher Guest movie is Waiting for Guffman. Also, in the same mockumentary vibes, you need to watch Drop Dead Gorgeous!

Adam Doyle

after Die Hard with a Vengeance, you could probably skip the later Die Hard movies. End on a high note.

Shawn Goforth

I would agree that Heat and Taxi Driver are your best options to elicit good reactions. Mean Streets is technically great, but deliberately paced (read: slow), with not as many iconic scenes. It did skyrocket Marty as an auteur.

I did enjoy it, but it wasn't nearly on the Level as 1 or 3. Worth a watch if Shanelle wants to complete the series, but not a must watch, in my opinion. Don't ruin the KS surprise ;)

Donna E.

I vote Taxi Driver.

Jacob Colson

If you dig Ben Affleck flicks, go for The Town! And with True Romance don't look up who's in the cast! Go in it as blind as you can!

Echo

I'm jazzed about Edward Scissorhands, Men in Black, and especially Shaun of the Dead- which I think you'll really like. It's a great film, done really well- a lot of excellent subtlety, top tier. I haven't seen any of the ones on the bottom list.

Paul Cox

Yeah, if you're going to start the Christopher Guest films, I think it's best to watch them in order. My subjective opinion is that Guffman is the best one, but even if other people prefer Best In Show, Guffman is a great place to be introduced to his crew of actors and the tone of his work.

Paul Cox

One thing about Heat that reactors don't take into consideration (and why would they?) is that its biggest selling point at the time was De Niro and Pacino being in scenes together. People had been waiting for 25 years to see that happen. And they're great scenes, and people typically recognize them as such, but in 1995 it carried SO MUCH MORE weight.

Kevin Charley

They were both caricatures of themselves at this point. Just not jokes yet. Edit: I may have come off too snarky. I didn't mean to belittle. They're both perfect in Heat.

Bill W

Bring the Heat.

Gary David Holbrook

Heat. Also M3GAN; an over-the-top movie that, for some reason, is under-the-radar as far as YouTube reactions go. Please consider giving it a look.

Michael Buhl

Which version of The Italian Job, the 1969 original with Michael Caine or the 2003 remake? I'm excited about Taxi Driver, Best in Show, and Shaun of the Dead! I have never seen anyone react to the 1979 comedy The In-Laws with Peter Falk and Alan Arkin, but I highly recommend it. I've not seen the 2003 remake, but I like Albert Brooks. Speaking of Albert Brooks, I really like Defending Your Life and Lost in America, both of which he directed. I also really like Real Life, which he also directed, but it's a little weird.

Dee Aitch

Add me to the "Heat" lovers. I think "The Italian Job" remake was a nice fun bit of fluff comparable to "Ocean's Eleven."

Joe Blankenship

Not a bad one in the bunch! Glad I'm back on the Patreon.

Chris

You will love Best In Show. American Pie 2 is also a solid sequel.

Exactly...it's like Gone In 60 Seconds meets Ocean's Eleven.

Travis Nickerson

There's a movie coming out May 26th that I just seen the screening for. The Wrath of Becky. Stars Lulu Wilson and Sean Williams Scott. It is bloody and sarcastic and a great revenge kind of movie. Apparently there was a first movie called Becky that had Kevin James as the bad guy with Lulu Wilson as the 16 year old girl that fights them off. If you get a chance I recommend going to see it.

Travis Nickerson

This movie you don't have to have seen the first one to see this one as it does a little bit of a recap

Starbuck1234!

The Italian job is a must. If the Town is what I think it is Ben Affleck, that’s a yes. I actually think his strength is directing. Argo. Gone baby Gone. Omg. I like him as a director.

Travis Nickerson

There is a movie I doubt you seen as a lot of people didn't. 1995 movie Four Rooms with Tim Roth, Antonio Bandaras, and others. Four different directors including Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. Interesting cast of characters takes place in a hotel. Think you might enjoy it.

Grinznmore

Taxi Driver, Shaun of the Dead. How about The Graduate for something different?

Josh Spinney

I’m super excited for all these! This may have already been covered but I’m a new Patreon Follower, has Shanelle seen The Grand Budapest Hotel? If not I think she should absolutely give it a shot as it’s right up her alley for fun and Wes’ film style is extraordinary.
