Hello beautiful popcorners!

Hope you had a great weekend!

Spring sports are in full swing here so byyyyeeee weekends! Looking at my calendar for April makes me so happy and want to cry at the same time. I know I do this to myself and I actually love having my kids in stuff, something for us to do, get out of the house etc. and watching them play sports and activities is one of my favourite parts of being a mom buuuuuttttt then I also am so overscheduled and a taxi driver and coordinating how to be in all the places at once can be overwhelming. All it takes is hands pumped in the air and pure excitement and shock after scoring a goal in pink tiny cleats to make it all worth it though.

What are your guys plans for Easter? We will do the classic easter egg hunts and celebrations with the neighborhood and a big ham dinner on Sunday. In Alberta, growing up we had a big chunk off school for Easter break and I wish they did that here as well. Seems like Easter Monday should be a holiday?

This week we have TLOU S2E1-like I said in the post, were trying out the one episode at a time as quick as we can after it airs to see if it works, but may switch it up. We also will be watching DAWN of the POTA (cant wait), our Pick-a-Flick winner Jule's pick-A Matter of Life and Death and our Val Kilmer Pol winner-Willow! Next week will be Blazing Saddles and Leon.

There is a very close, evenly spread Wildcard Poll going as we speak. Like
I said, I was very wrong on what I thought would win. Right now 12 Monkeys is in the lead with 9-5 closely behind! I thought it would have been Dirty Rotten Scoundrels or King Kong for sure!

Here is another reminder about our Spring YT LIVE package opening on April 26th! I hope you can make it, BYOP!

Our Extra Butter LIVE will be a watch along is tentatively 4.29 in the evening!

Carly and I interviewed our amazing editor Matt in this weeks podcast episode and I loved this one. Go check it out-it came out on YT and podcast platforms today! Also, would love if you would subscribe to our Popcorn to Go channel if you feel so inclined!!

Thanks again for all you do-every comment, view, like, sub, and just being you! Have a most excellent week!

Hoping for "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels", but it doesn't look good. "12 Monkeys" will be a good one, too!

Jason Fulbright

You Should call an audible and watch DRAFT DAY since the NFL Draft is upon us. Kevin Costner, A different kind of sports movie. A love story. A great ending, need I say more.

BridgesNotBurned

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes!!! Yessss!!!!!!!

Michael O'Connor

Harvey (1950) James Stewart should be a must watch every Easter. It is for me. = : )

Katie Sivak

Can’t wait to con TLOU journey was Cassie. Excited for Willow

Philip Alan

Go ahead and watch the top 5 in that Wildcard poll. Go ahead and do that. We're good with that! :)

Walter

Watching 2 out of 4 myself. Actually, I’ve never seen A Matter of Life and Death - so maybe 3 out of 4. I can’t watch Willow again. I just rewatched it last year and ooof…it was best left in my childhood.

Silver Machine

Nice mix of movies coming up! And Blazing Saddles too? Good stuff!

Mark Vaderr

I think Cassie has already seen this pre-channel.

Sam Whitewater

Please watch the American edit of Leon (just The Professional). The int'l cut is not indicative of the film Americans loved in the 90s...

Dan M

Hey Cassie! I totally sympathize AND agree with your sentiments about Spring sports. Both of my girls were very active in sports, and they were both very active in competitive dance. So practices, games, dance rehearsals, and completions always seemed to converge at once. The mom and dad taxi service was in full service from April through the summer. Those days are gone now, but I do miss them. Especially the dance competitions …the amount of talent in the ballrooms was amazing. Easter will be at my brother in law’s house, as we usually host Christmas and Thanksgiving. Most of the kids in the family are older now, so the Easter egg hunts are done, and it’s all about eating and playing board games. I’ve just started season 1 of of TLoU, so I’ve got some catching up to do before I can join up with you for season 2. But I CANNOT WAIT for you and Carly to watch Dawn of the POTA. As incredible as Rise was, Dawn and War are even better. Also looking forward to your reaction to Willow, but since Real Genius was such a close 2nd, are you considering watching that movie as well? Pretty please!! 🙏

Dan M

Happy Easter Neil! 🐰 🐣 🌹

Ted Whalen

Oh , how I remember my mom driving us to all of our practices/games). I have three brothers and two sisters, I don’t know how my mom kept the schedules so organized. Then of course when we got home from practices/ games we always wondered why dinner was not ready! Big Easter Day brunch (and a long nap) are on the schedule for Sunday!

Stick Figure Studios

Hard disagree. Definitely watch the international cut. It is vastly superior.

Art Vandalaay

Schools here in the UK have a two week Easter break. Also Good Friday and Easter Monday are what we call Bank Holidays, which is just a term we use for a National day off work, for most non essential jobs. So yes, a four day weekend ahead for me with nothing to do except watch sport and movies. Happy Easter indeed..

MikeLL

It will be exciting to see A Matter of Life and Death as I’ve never seen that one. More Apes is good. Easter is just another Sunday for me. Sad, but true. Can’t wait for Blazing Saddles next week!

Mark Vaderr

Back when I was a kid, Cassie, we would get Easter Vacation, which lasted a whole week! Now that schools don't want to seem like kids are being indoctrinated by religion, they changed it to "Spring Break" which they've made at random times of Spring. Although it's funny that "Winter Break" which used to be called "Christmas Vacation" is always scheduled around Christmas. Whatever. How many movies will you be watching from the wildcard poll? The top 2 or top 4? I love that you are enjoying the Apes series, they are very well made movies. 2025 has turned into quite a fun year. I'm just sad that I can't watch your package opening on the 26th, but I look forward to re-watching it. Best wishes and Happy Easter to you and your family!

Clay F

She said in the text above: "Next week will be Blazing Saddles and Leon."

Clay F

The Last of Us S2E1 reaction was excellent. I recommend to everyone the latest podcast episode with Matt. Looking forward to Dawn. I have not seen the Pick-a-Flick winner but I am curious (gets great reviews) and will watch the reaction along with my first watch of the movie. I lived in southern Louisiana for 5 years in which several days (including Good Friday and Easter Monday) are taken off for Easter (in lieu of a March spring break).

Anthony Carlson

Well, at my job, we have Easter Monday (and Good Friday) off so that’s one of the perks of my job 😎😂 Anyway, my Tigers are off to a hot start in baseball. First place in our division and in the American League. I know it’s early, but nevertheless Go Tigers! ⚾️🐅 Have a most excellent week to you too! 🎸 🎸 🎸

JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS

"What are your guys plans for Easter?" Easter will be a family time for me, probably the same for everyone else. I have to say, although I do buy nice Easter eggs for the family, I do tend to buy some for myself...and eat them before Easter even arrives! I have already eaten two dark, mint chocolate After Eight eggs! Talking of which, tomorrow I'm going to try to post some Cadbury Orange Mini Eggs to Cassie. Hopefully they will arrive before the 26th April, I know I should have tried to post them sooner, really sorry Cassie!

Joe

Woah, yeah watch the international cut.

Shreddy

Sorry, but I 100% agree with Sam. The longer cut includes some disturbing elements to the relationship of the main characters. It has some good added scenes, like the extended training montage.. and some that make the whole thing feel very creepy. I've seen lots of reactors cringing and not really liking the whole film all that much.... because they saw the extended cut. Longer cut is not always the better cut. (Actually, almost all Director Cuts or Extended Cuts are mixed bags). But in this case it changes the tone of the whole movie, making it just plain creepy. The shorter cut is a beautiful story, where everything that felt "off" could be explained by Mathilda's immaturity and her horrible family. In the extended cut, not really

JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS

Can't wait for Collateral (2004), I remember first seeing it in the cinema when it was first released way back in 2004. Brilliant film!

Sam Whitewater

This is exactly what I'm talking about. I fell in love with the film in the 90s and later read the script and plot synopsis of the int'l cut and was immediately turned off. Finally watching it when it was released in the early 00s cemented the fact that, for me, the U.S. cut is way less creepy.

David Freese

Hope Dark Crystal gets the PiB treatment someday

David Freese

I can agree with 2 or 3 but why have a poll if shes basically watching half? Just my observation.

David Freese

I think she said she seen it so hopefully we can get some clarification

Bill Maurer

"Blazing Saddles" .... please, please add Carly to that one. After some of the more heavier movies you have reacted to lately, The Searchers, Cape Fear, Collateral and The Passion of the Christ. Blazing Saddles is the cool dip in the pool of non-political correctness and humor you need

Philip Alan

If it means one of your favorite films gets reacted to, so be it!! (hides)

Chris Thom

Oh hey there ya go, Carly. Ape on horseback with a machine gun. We made it.

Walter

Not Krull?! Kidding. Maybe so. I just found it lacking when I rewatched it in a way other films from that time did not. Just didn’t work for me.

Gray

Some good TV/movies to watch this week, sadly for me I work nights at the weekend so this upcoming one is not different for me lol

William Brownlee

When you watch Blazing Saddles please remember this most important thing, Mel Brooks talked many times about the best way to fight terrible things was to make them a laughing stock. The butt of the joke. He does it with nazis in another film and does it here with, no spoilers. He uses bad situations to turn a bad thing into just something you should make fun of and laugh at. I've seen other channels watch this and they grab their pearls and are horrified at the language without any understanding of why he included it. The movie was written by Mel Brooks and Richard Pryor. Richard was a black comedian. One of the funniest men ever, and he convinced Mel that the bad words had to be used to make the whole point of the movie. All I ask is that you watch the movie with these points in mind. It is a classic in every way and should be required viewing for everybody. Make fun of the evil things. Let everyone know that evil isn't powerful.

Wesley White

Happy early Easter to you Cass! I'm looking forward to your reaction to "Dawn of the Plantet of the Apes" personally it's my favorite of the new series! I'm most especially looking forward to your reaction to one of my all time favorite fantasy movies growing up as a kid "Willow" I know for a fact you'll love it, I'm a little bummed Carly isn't joining you for that one, I'm sure she'll like it too! You're going to watch/react to "Blazing Saddles"? I never thought you'd finally get there and watch that Mel Brooks classic, I'm happy you are though! If you can handle Monty Python, I'm sure you can handle this movie, just be prepared for the absurdity of the hilarious humor that Mel Brooks is known for lol! BTW, I love that movie, I laugh hysterically every time lol! "Leon the Professional" eh, that's a good one, no spoilers, wait till you see how young and talented Natalie Portman is in that movie! Unfortunately no plans for Easter for me, other than working my tail off! Anyway, I'm looking forward to those reactions! Love and support, Happy early Easter, you and Carly are the best, and God bless your kind heart and the rest of the family🥰😇🙏😁🤗😉👍✌🌹

Walter Crockett

Hey Cassie. For Leon Please watch the Extended Cut 🙏 It’s a lot better.

William Brownlee

Harvey is a quiet gem. Not much really happens, but you see a gentle loving man. Jimmy Stewart was a treasure. So many good movies. And the scripts were so much better.

TechJJ

Regarding reacting to TLOU S2 per episode release or batch them later, it's fine either way for me. Cassie has her own unique reaction style and will attract TLOU S2 fans regardless of when. Of course sooner still better!

Bill Maurer

Looking forward to the "camp fire scene" in Blazing Saddles. Along with a bunch of other scenes. But that one definitely stands out among the entire movie " .. excuse me as I ...."

JC

Rory Mcllroy is probably watching.

Curtis Martin

Pay attention to who uses that word. And when. Some folks are cured of their ignorance and some are not.

David Collins

Yay! Willow. I really, really hope Carly comes along, she'll enjoy this one.

Raven Dark

Dawn: POTA! Yeeeesss! I love all three, but the second movie is my favorite. I am so thrilled you're watching these, and with Carly, too! If you thought the first one was good, wait until you see Dawn. Carly was right (as you can see from the poster, so no spoilers). Dawn is what you thought Rise was. It'll give you everything you wanted and then some. Rise was great, but Dawn is going to blow your fracking mind. Can't wait!

Larry Darrell

Did anyone else read “TLOU S2E1” as Toulouse… as in Toulouse-Lautrec? Anyone? Anyone? Really looking forward to Powell & Pressburger’s, A Matter of Life and Death. Never thought the day would come so soon. Thank You Jules!! Please, Please consider watching the 2nd place Val Kilmer poll film… Real Genius (1985) It was so close, and it would cover over 50% of the votes cast. It would also give you 2 different ranges of Val Kilmer’s acting talent. Thank You Thank You. :-)

QuiGon_Jim

Couldn't be more wrong there, bud. The Theatrical Cut (or whatever the short version is called) is the one to be watched. Hope everyone who knows exactly what I'm talking about backs me up here.

Joe J

Watch as many as needed for Pitch Black to sneak in, Lol.

Kristin

You should watch dirty Rotten Scoundrels anyway. It's fun, lighthearted.

Ib-René Jørgensen

Easter Egg hunt must be an American thing, i definitely don't know it here in Scandinavia. On Thursday I'm going to my cousin's husbands 60th birthday, on Saturday my friends 30th birthday, she's a vegan (my first vegan meal), so that'll be interesting and on Sunday my little club of single guys we will have a traditional danish Easter meal, so fully packed. Happy Easter to everyone. 😊

Mike Lemon

I'm laying my bet down- Cassie (and Carly if she were to watch it) will not find it as funny as the people old enough to watch at least some of the original airings of The Jeffersons.

Jason Fulbright

It's all in good fun. No need to pressure our Popcorn Princess.

Mike Lemon

"What are your guys plans for Easter?" Sunday is laundry day and taco day, but if my family decides to invite me to Easter dinner, I'll go have some ham and switch laundry to Saturday. I'm planning on tacos.

VirtuallyVeronicka

I’m curious of A Matter of Life and Death…and I’m stoked for Willow!!

Michael O'Connor

Harvey is hilarious! 😂 🤣🐰 It features a unique, creative script that provides excellent Easter Laughs and Giggles! Great Extended and Immediate Family Cooping Mechanisms too! Nothing happens in Seinfeld either but I'm a big fan of it too. Escapism at its best!

Randy Schuh

I am so glad you are watching classic movies. A Matter of Life and Death is a great fantasy/romance. I've seen it several times. It's interesting how they made movies of this nature back in the 40s.

Milton Reduxed

I haven't watched an old film in ages so am really looking forward to to this month's PaF winner

TheSingulatarian

It is creepy any way you slice it. Creep city.

Milton Reduxed

For Good Friday there's a small group of Indian Christians locally who have an Easter festival where one of them drags a full size crucifix up a local beauty spot and they stop and read parts of the gospel to the crowd along the way, hopefully they'll do it again this year

Richard Maurer

I try to find the good in everything. So as far as watching Willow goes, at least we’ll never see it again on this channel.

TheSingulatarian

Philipino's nail themselves to the cross. Wimps.

Milton Reduxed

I've not seen the extended so gets my vote

Clay F

I don't think she is really going to like Blazing Saddles. Carly even less (if she joins). But we will see.

Clay F

Agree, awesome film. Are you waiting for the YT edit? The full reaction to Collateral was posted to Patreon on April 6.

Clarence Newman

Unless she decides to watch the Buffy series. There's a really good Willow in that.

Clarence Newman

Still waiting for you to reach 6 months or whatever it is, Cassie, so I can do a full year's subby to Popcorn to Go (I don't do monthly so the Feds can't track me). In the meantime, I will continue to press my face up against the window like a poor kid outside a sweet shop. And by the way, you need some comedies in your diet. You always, ALWAYS, without fail always, watch the runners-up in the polls, so City Slickers has got to be on the schedule. "Either shoot me or shut the hell up! I'm on vacation."

Joe

Respectfully disagree here. It is those additional elements that make this movie unique compared to a more standard action movie. Trying to stay vague here but those creepy scenes are part of the growth of these characters. At its core the relationship between the two main charecters is pure, but it is between two very troubled people. They do not know how to love others or be loved. So, it leads to some uncomfortable and inappropriate moments to watch. How they interpret love is a reflection of the world around them, which is incredibly unhealthy. But the creepiness is thankfully never reciprocated and you see the characters grow throughout the movie. It is worth noting the director does not endorse the American cut and it was not the movie he intended to make.

Milton Reduxed

There's also a Willow in The Wicker Man

zynjams

YESSSS FOR WILLOW. can't wait

Brent Petty

Not a week of choices that really interest me. Hope others enjoy it though.

2-Can

She was ok with Tanner in Bad News Bears. She’ll catch on.

Clarence Newman

We're off to Hampton Court Palace on Good Friday. You'd love it, Cassie. There's a maze there like the one in The Shining. And Easter Monday IS a holiday. You just have to move to England.

Stick Figure Studios

I have to admit, I never thought that I would see A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH reacted to on this channel, but I am very pleased. It is a great movie and an excellent gateway into the cinema of Powell and Pressburger. Hopefully something like THE RED SHOES or BLACK NARCISSUS Is soon to follow. WILLOW should be fun. It's sort of a precursor to the LORD OF THE RINGS movies (although not nearly of the same caliber and it is obviously is heavily derivative of Tolkien's writings). There are better Val Kilmer movies to react to, but it's not a bad one. It's also oddly appropriate because Jean Marsh (define English actress who plays Bavmorda) also just passed away. I think you will have fun with it. But the film I am most looking forward to this week is DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES. RISE was very good, but this was the entry that, for me, cemented the new Apes movies as being a fitting continuation of this landmark decades-old franchise. Indeed, I think this one is the best of all the new movies. I can't wait to see your and Carly's reaction to it. As always, keep up the good work. :-)

Mark White

I don’t have any plans myself Mike for Easter. Probably just chill out at home, catch up on some PiB reactions. I work outdoors, so I quite like to have my time off in the house in front of the telly. Its relaxing for me. Might watch a movie. I think Lucy wants to watch “Wall street” as she has never seen it. It’s been a while for me too. I use to eat tacos every week a long time ago. I think I need to find a gluten free ones and get back to them. They are so tasty.

Kristin

It needs to a reaction, but it will never win a poll!

Mark White

Your ears burning Clarence?! Popcorn to go, You are mentioned. Twice I think!

Mark White

Cassie is not going near anything that reminds her of the shining! Not unless Ben is holding her hand and even then! Cassie can’t move to England unless she watch’s Lock Stock and two smoking barrels! 😆 Have a good time on Friday buddy 🙂

JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS

Yes, I'm waiting for the YouTube edit, I'm only a little kernel, I don't have access to full reactions (although I was able to see the full reaction to The Spy Who Loved Me, I think they put that on the lower tier by mistake!)

Richard Maurer

Please - Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The Wicker Man (73) - love to see them on this Channel. Dollar Store LotR - not so much.

Mark White

Cassie, you are pumping out the content at the moment! I can barely keep up! All good stuff and so much to look forward too. Easter, I think just chilling out at home. Apart from today, we have had some really good weather in North Norfolk, so I’ve been working hard, but I’m ready for a good four day break. Just finished watching your Popcorn to go latest podcast. Sooo good. Thank you for that. Ok, I have an Easter movie idea for you: Ben randomly places 50 Easter eggs around your house, you have to collect as many as you can in 5 minutes. If you collect, say, 17 eggs, you then react to the 17 most requested movie on popcorn requests? Go on, give it a go! Have a great Easter. You are the best ❤️

Mike Lemon

Aren't all hard shell tacos gluten free? Soft corn tortilla ones too?

Mark White

Are they?! Great, that’s something else I can now eat without turning into a balloon!

James M

Years ago I had two teenagers Easter morning and I said "come on Easter egg hunt time!" Predictable eye rolling and remarks like "really?" Immediately filled the air. I said "yes yes sit down" and started the DVD player. I then had them take turns hunting for the secret Easter eggs hidden in a series of DVDs about one of their favorite things, "Red Vs Blue". After they had spent an hour loading and unloading disks and laughing at the hidden messages they found, they both conceded it was a fun Easter egg hunt.

Milton Reduxed

This week's lineup follows a good method for scheduling #1 - PaF Winner (A Matter of Life and Death) #2 - Weekly Poll Winner (Willow) #3 - Cassie's Choice (Planet of the Apes) + Additional TV Episode

Milton Reduxed

Willow used authentic midgets, the genuine article. Plus the Death Dogs in Willow are much more intimidating than the CGI Wargs

Chris Thom

I think you're safe in Amish Country...as long as Harrison Ford doesn't show up.

Chris Thom

Unless she does Life is Too Short. A lot of Willow 2 in that.

Chris Thom

Taco Sunday sounds amazing.

Dean Holt

Glad to see Willow on the list as there seems to be a lot of heavy dark movies on the channel at the moment, and add another one if 12 Monkeys wins the poll. I think definitely need a couple of comedy’s to balance it out. Would definitely love to see Cassie finally watch Beverly Hill Cop, Tropic Thunder would be great or something a bit underrated like Tag (2018) or Paul (2011). Paul just one of my favourites with all the lines in it from other sci-fi films, you also can’t go wrong when Simon Penn & Nick Frost team up.

Dean Holt

I’ll be honest, I’ve never gotten why people go metal for this. I personally think it’s one of his worst movies. And it’s not because I find it offensive, I just think they take a joke and milk it to death. Like the camp fire scene just goes on way to long. But comedy is probably the most subjective genre, so there’s probably a lot of things I find hilarious that you might not like.

Joel Wayne

I think you'll be surprised by her reaction....just a hunch

Bill Maurer

Agree. I know I will laugh my a** off watching it and I've seen it about 20 times

Clarence Newman

Woke up early again so I just watched it. They only mentioned two of my questions, though, deliberately leaving out the one about Officer and a Gentleman! The scars run deep, so they do. I have to say, it's always nice to hear our names come out of Cassie and Carly's mouths. It's like when the pop star points at you and waves during a concert. You can't help but turn to your friend and do frantic jazz hands while screaming in their face. I also have to say, how beautiful did Cassie look in that podcast? Her latest flesh-eating lurgy seems to be agreeing with her.

Clarence Newman

Definite yes to Lock Stock. Cassie will love Vinnie Jones. We've all had that frustrating moment when the car door just won't close properly.

Richard Maurer

Milton - The use of real little people in Willow was done out of necessity more than anything else. The Hobbits in Jackson’s LotR were portrayed as they were in the books, that is shorter than normal humans but proportionate to their size. A lot ingenuity and artistry when into recreating the Hobbits accurately. The Wargs could only be portrayed by cgi as they were big enough to be used as mounts for orcs, while the death dogs were just big dogs, hardly intimidating at all. There is literally nothing in Willow that is superior to Jackson’s LotR, as (imo) there are no movies in existence that are superior to Jackson’s LotR, certainly not a cheap Tolkien ripoff like Willow.

Richard Maurer

Clarence - dollar store LotR is Willow. I don’t know if they have them in the UK, but here in America we have what are called dollar stores. Stores that carry cheap, off-brand, inferior merchandise . So like Willow in comparison to Jackson’s LotR.

Milton Reduxed

@Richard. CGI has never been thrilling, and never will, because it carries no threat; That's the fundamental flaw in Jackson's LOTR. Watching humans fight CGI Cave Trolls, CGI Wargs, CGI Dragons, against a CGI background is dull. The action sequences in Willow are actually fun even if the drama is less compelling

Milton Reduxed

It's like #30 on Popcorn Requests. I would like to schedule the top-rated movie from the app each week

Richard Maurer

Sorry , but no. CGI is a tool that when done correctly (LotR, Jurassic Park, etc) is superior to any form of realistic movie animation. You’re stuck in the past if you think cgi can never be good, that’s just denying reality at this point. The only halfway decent thing in Willow was the stop motion dragon. But as much as I love stop motion, particularly the work of Ray Harryhausen, its time is over and the best way to portray larger than life creatures is cgi, we’re not going back to stop motion or men in rubber monster suits, except maybe for some retro project.

Sean

Blazing saddles should be a great reaction.

Big Lazy Dragon

My plans for Easter usually revolve around my watching a trip of my favorite Easter shows; specifically 'It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown', 'The Easter Bunny is Coming to Town' & 'Hop' while enjoying a few Easter treats.

Kristin

Not a bad idea!!

Rose

Hampton Court Palace is on my to-do list now. My niece will be finishing her last semester for grad school in London next year so I plan to take her there when I go visit her.

Paul Cox

After 'A Matter of Life and Death' won this month's draw, I started looking around to see where it's streaming. In the US, it's not on Prime, it's not on the library services Kanopy or Hoopla, I don't know if it's on Max or Apple because I'm not a subscriber to those platforms. I did find it free on YouTube, though, both in an official and also a non-official capacity. However, if you're not a YouTube Premium user, it's gonna be interrupted by ads making a watch-along extremely difficult. Anyway, here's the link. Best of luck! https://youtu.be/djkkJxHXMQc?si=s3SqZY17blU0TZdg

TheSingulatarian

You just have to be quick on the pause button for You Tube.

Joe J

I assume Cassie will make a YT edit, but that's not a given for PAF picks.

Dean Holt

Ok no problem, I just couldn’t be bothered to look 😂. But it has surprises me a little that she has.

Björn Karlsson

It's a new thing here in Sweden I think. When I was kid we never hunted easter eggs, but now it's pretty common among kids 🙂

Milton Reduxed

Have you ever seen a CGI fight sequence that equals the battles in Braveheart? Or CGI action sequences which equal the original Indiana Jones trilogy? What do you think looks better, and is more exciting, the minecart chase in Temple of Doom or the tuk tuk chase in Dial of Destiny? Practical effects were still evolving in the early 90s when they were making those great monsters in Gremlins II, with new robotics and other techniques we'll never know how good they could have gotten. I still watch practical effects from 75 years ago that make me wonder how they did it, but with CGI it's just a bunch of colours on a screen put there by some anonymous underpaid Chinaman in a Disney sweatshop

Mike Lemon

"if you're not a YouTube Premium user, it's gonna be interrupted by ads" Yeah...ads... I'll say again, I don't know how people use the internet with ads. I gave up on that after YouTube decided an *hour* long unskippable ad was a good idea.

Richard Maurer

I don’t remember any giant trolls or spiders, or any other monsters in Braveheart. But to answer your question, I prefer the battles in LotR to Braveheart, no question. I don’t have your hang-up with CGI, especially when it’s as well done as LotR. Even with Gollum, who technically could have been done live action, I’m glad they didn’t as the cgi version worked much better. At this point it’s apparent that you have trouble with change and I don’t. CGI is a tool in a filmmakers tool box now, and like any tool it can be misused or overused, but can also create art when used properly. CGI was the only possible way LotR could be done. No clunky robotic monster of that time or of the foreseeable future could have matched what they were able accomplish with the beautiful cgi in LotR.

Clay F

Thanks Paul. I have YT Premium, so will be watching the full movie on YT (no adds). I occasionally watch full movies on YT for free. I recently watched High Plains Drifter (1973) and Sommersby (1993) because those were not available for free on other services I subscribe to.

Milton Reduxed

It's not a 'hang up' or being 'stuck in the past', it's a question of how the film makes you feel, and CGI action makes me feel bored, whereas actual action with actual stunts is exciting & marvelous. I think watching Buster Keaton or Charlie Chaplin actually doing things that are dangerous and require exceptional skill is more impressive than watching actors against a green screen; watching Jackie Chan perform actual stunts and fight choreography with real people is more impressive than watching Keanu Reeves battle 50 agent Smiths' and none of them are even there

Richard Maurer

Well clearly we’re never going to see eye to eye on this subject so best to just agree to disagree.

Robert Durant

Bring on DAWN Of The Planet Of The Apes!!! I hope both of you ladies will be doing this whole series of Apes films together this time. You will love DAWN and you will really love the third film, WAR.

zynjams

Jean Marsh, who played Queen Bavmorda in Willow has passed away at the age of 90

Clarence Newman

Yeah, but he sucked in that. I hope she remembers him more for Gone In 60 Seconds.

Richard Maurer

It’s probably going to go about the same as Holy Grail did, she’ll like some of it, dislike other parts, be befuddled in still other parts. I enjoyed her reaction to Holy Grail, because I didn’t expect her to love all of it, and I expect to enjoy her reaction to Blazing Saddles for the same reason.

Chris Thom

On one of the lives she said 'people keep saying I've seen Tropic Thunder but I haven't." If it's checked off on the already watched list it may've been a mistake.

Dang...swanky. I think we learned about that place in school. Wasn't it the last castle of Henry the Eighth?

Clarence Newman

Don't think so. He may have lived there for a while, but then got married to the widow next door who'd been married 7 times before. Apparently, every one was an 'Enery. She wouldn't have a Willie or a Sam.

Chris Thom

Is Krampus a thing where you live?

Dean Holt

Well I did see Roger Rabbit on her watched list a while back. But apparently she can’t have as it was on the March Madness tournament.

Willow !!!! The red-haired warrior was my first crush!! And, I ended up finding my own red-haired beauty to marry and our son is beautiful !

Patrick Switzer

Look forward to the live on April 26th and the reaction to Blazing Saddles

Hi Cassie, I hope you and all of your family have a great Easter weekend. I wish I could say that I would be celebrating Easter, even low key, but last year was the final one for me, as my mom passed away last June. Any traditions I shared with her died with her. I have no wife, no girlfriend, no kids, none of that. Any holidays I celebrate I will have to figure out on my own. On top of all of that I was diagnosed with High Functioning Autism 14 years ago. I am glad to see you are finally reacting to Willow. A great Val Kilmer movie as well as a great George Lucas and Ron Howard collaboration.

Her and Val Kilmer passed just a couple of weeks apart

Ted Whalen

Matthew- I am sorry to hear about your mom. I am sure the holidays can be a hard time, but hopefully you can start a new tradition (maybe something to help honor your mom).

Chris Thom

Sorry about your loss. RIP. Hope you're alright.

Chris Thom

She's watching Blazing Saddles for the LIVE watch-a-long?

Steve Holton

@Chris Thom, I believe Patrick is looking forward to the package opening on April 26th. Since the live watch-a-long is currently scheduled for April 29th, it is likely he was just expressing anticipation for two separate upcoming events.

Checking ever few hrs or so for Dawn of The Planet of The Apes. Can't wait to see what you think of it.

Joe J

Is it expected this weekend? Her Patreon week seems to run from Tuesday to Tuesday, so movies can be posted later than even Sunday.

JasonM

She said during the Oppenheimer Youtube stream that they had to reschedule watching Dawn of Planet of the Apes with Carly until Sunday, so I wouldn't expect it until Monday or Tuesday.

Chris Thom

Oh ok. Curious what the movie will be.
