Hey guys, here is Poll 2 of 2 of our Father's Day Poll! Make sure to vote on both! In the past, I have had polls of my own dad's favorite movies but I think I have watched just about all of them now. So instead here are polls with father-focused movies! Thanks for all your suggestions <3

The top 2 or 3 from both polls will go to a championship poll in a couple days!

Cheers to the dads!

Comments

Omar

Lot of good ones here

Alex Gorell

I am Sam would absolutely destroy Cassie.

WestBound

Two for two on the winning movies

Jake McNulty

A lot of good ones here, but I'm gonna have to go with "In the Name of the Father" this time.

Anthony Carlson

Trouble with the Curve is my choice. If Moneyball was on it, that would be my choice too.

Cole Jennett

When I saw Trouble with the Curve, I figured that’s where my vote was going, but I can’t believe she hasn’t seen Mask of Zorro. So fun!

Seymor Butz

You haven't seen father of the bride. WHAT!

Ted Whalen

This poll has a lot of really good options!

Tim Weaver

This poll is STACKED compared to poll 1, but u gotta go I am Sam. Especially if her Sis can join. If Rainman brought out the Joy..this will crush in the best way possible.

Cole Jennett

I want that one day for sure, but I can’t pass up Zorro

Rod Reavern

I remember enjoying "Road to Perdition" when I watched it with my university friends at our student house. It stands out as one of the few "dramatic" movies that we watched and enjoyed together.

Cole Jennett

Note that it’s the 1950 version, she has definitely seen the Steve Martin one

Tim Weaver

I respectfully disagree. The outcome will be right up her alley. Plus the Beatles soundtrack .

Annie519

And the amazing chemistry with Antonio Bandres!! They were unbelievably beautiful together!!

Jim

It’s been a dream to have someone reacting to On Golden Pond on YouTube. Henry Fonda’s last role, playing opposite real life daughter Jane Fonda. Easily the most powerful and emotional movie on this list. I’m sure it won’t win and it will remain a dream, but I can hope.

Clarence Newman

Bah humbug. The only skin I have in this poll is old and wrinkly. It's also getting its delightful, grouchy, but ultimately uplifting butt kicked. Bridge of Spies is good, but I refuse to vote for it because of Mark Rylance's heinous appropriation of Sly Stallone's Oscar.

Chris Retzlaff

Nothing says Fathers day like Mr. MOM!! You gave that baby chili???!!

Cole Jennett

Ok, the first of the two is much better imo

Keith Brown

Was hoping for classic 1948 “Life with Father “ film based on real life family .Longest running play in Broadway history!

Laura Thornley

Mask of Zorro is a fun film, even if it suffers a bit from Hollywood casting (if you know you know).

Robert Jewell

Had the hardest time deciding between Father of the Bride with such an excellent cast, Spencer Tracy, Joan Bennet and Elizabeth Taylor and Mr. Mom,but I went for Mr. Mom because it's tremendous, Cassie will adore it, and it was my brother's favorite movie along with My Cousin Vinny and he was a great father too. 🙏

Tim Weaver

I'm saving Road to Perdition for a gangster poll.

Just Plain Bob

“Road to Perdition” has to be among my top three favorite Tom Hanks performances and Paul Newman is superb, as always.

Justin S.

Captain Fantastic would be a good move to add to this list if you haven't seen it.

Tyler Foster

Haha, it's funny you say "older": the oldest Zorro film is actually from 1920. The most notable of the classic Zorro movies is probably The Mark of Zorro from 1940, and a television remake of the movie from 1974 that uses the same title. I also really liked Alain Delon's Zorro (1975), which (in its uncut form -- the film is public domain and many copies available are butchered) has an incredible swordfight finale.

Clay F

Good job in condensing down the suggestions to give the candidates for these two polls. In this poll 2, I voted Road to Perdition (2002) (makes you think) but also have nostalgia for Mr. Mom (1983). In the Name of the Father (1993) (she would like) is the best movie in the poll but doesn't stand a chance -- so I didn't waste my vote on it. The Mask of Zorro (1998) is not bad, so I will be content if that wins.

fargoboyle .

No The Royal Tenenbaums for Gene Hackman's performance as the doting father. Shame 😉

bgb1975 (Brian)

Not in poll #2 either? (see poll #1 comment below) :_( I think I just died inside a little bit!

Patrick Flanagan

Well good news - BRIDGE OF SPIES is not either of these polls

Tim Weaver

I couldn't believe Sean Penn lost to Denzel. His training day character he could do in his sleep. I mean no shame losing to Denzel of course...but I am Sam lefte shook for awhile.

Patrick Flanagan

I can see how MASK OF ZORRO qualifies but to me it's an adventure or superhero movie. I would love to see IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER pull off an upset, but assuming it doesn't, please keep it mind for a future Courtroom Drama poll.

Richard Maurer

No Son of Godzilla in either poll? What’s this world coming to?

Just Plain Bob

It’s on the first poll and getting no love right now.

Clarence Newman

It nearly made it, but lost out to Over The Top.

Dan M

Ooofff!! This poll is a lot tougher than the first one. But since I suggested Mr. Mom and Three Men and a Little Lady, it’s gotta be one of those for me. I left it up to fate and tossed a coin. Mr Mom it is. Michael Keaton at his comedic height. And the premise is fun.

Tim Weaver

Voting for the "winner" defeats the purpose of voting at all imo.

BriGuy

Although I'm voting for "The Mask of Zorro", it just makes me so sad that "On Golden Pond" is currently polling at a measly 4 %.

Justin S.

Oh, sorry I missed it on that one! It's a pretty good film.

Dan M

“Look guys. Take it easy on daddy. Remember, he’s a rookie.”

FranciscoGios

The top two should tell you it was hard for me to decide but I went for the light one.

Dan M

Way tougher than Poll #1

Dan M

Yeah, I think Road to Perdition is much better suited for a Gangster Movie Poll.

Tracey Mendenhall Porreca

This poll is tough! So many excellent movies, some I can't believe you've never seen. Mr. Mom is a classic and should be seen by all. On Golden Pond is an amazing and heartfelt work. Yours, Mine and Ours is a much overlooked excellent movie. I don't honestly get why Mask of Zorro is even on here, and am not surprised it's doing well. It just appeals to a younger audience and your audience more likely has already seen it. This is a very hard poll to decide on!

Richard Maurer

Like I said, what’s this world coming to?

Clay F

Yep, currently 4th from the bottom.

Justin S.

There was a movie called Dad (1989) with Jack Lemmon, Ted Danson, and Ethan Hawke. It's a decent flick, not fantastic.

Matt Rose

voted IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER. It might be Daniel Day-Lewis' finest hour as an actor. Just a great movie. I won't complain if FATHER OF THE BRIDE, MASK OF ZORRO, or ROAD TO PERDITION win, though.

Richard Maurer

It’s the best movie in the poll and it has a father and son. That’s enough for me.

Clarence Newman

Isn't that the one Robert Downey jr was talking about in Tropic Thunder?

Cole Jennett

I’ve said this a few times before, but I believe Denzel won that year for the snub he received in not winning for The Hurricane the year prior. Sean Penn was a casualty of that.

Nolofinwe

"The mask off Zorro" is a fun movie its true but "trouble with the curve" is better. "The Road to Perdition" Blows ! big time ! Seriously how can people had enough of that Hollywood pedophile yet

Clay F

Road to Perdition (2002) has a realistic chance of winning and is a good father-son movie that makes you think, but may be too new for you.

Cody Nelson

I really hope the Mask of Zorro wins! It’s an excellent movie that I’m sure Cassie will love!

Larry Darrell

Wait? Is she saying she saw The Legend of Zorro (2005) before Mask (1998)?

Robert Baldino

In the Name of the Father is easily the best movie on this poll, and has a bunch of stuff Cassie likes. It's never going to win, though, so I'll vote for Road to Perdition. Mask of Zorro is fun, but it could easily go in some other poll.

Jay

Road to Perdition. But if you want a newer father film check out The Iron Claw

Clay F

The three currently in the run for last place: --The Descendants (2011) = 3% --Yours, Mine and Ours (1968) = 3% --I Am Sam (2001) = 2% I like The Descendants (2011). Glad that Three Men and a Little Lady (1990) not doing well (sorry fans).

Larry Darrell

For next year, please consider again… A Perfect World (1993), starring Kevin Costner and Clint Eastwood, as well as directed by Eastwood. It’s a Great Father’s Day film.

Cole Jennett

That’s the way I’m reading it Larry

Stick Figure Studios

How have you not seen THE MASK OF ZORRO? I thought you already had... otherwise I would have been recommending it long before this!

Clay F

Ditto

Chris Davis

Is that that one with Elijah Wood? I'd like to see that as well...

K, Zachary

You know if The Simpsons makes fun of the movie? It's hilarious. https://youtu.be/mniOdBXH2Yk?si=Ki3mvlmIeSS1db_i Trouble with The Curve is never going to win. Even though I think Cassie would enjoy Clint Eastwood-Amy Adams father daughter duo. And primarily because it's about baseball. Not just any baseball but MLB . If I thought any chance I vote for it. Seriously are we now voting for movies based on the women that are in them? You know Catherine Zeta-Jones was in American Sweethearts with Julia Roberts and with George Clooney in Intolerable Cruelty that were fantastic romcoms. Plus she plays Wednesday Adams mother in the show Wednesday.

Don

Trouble with the curve, on golden pond, the mask of sorrow. I wanna pick three!

Alex Ch

One of my favorite Daniel Craig performances as well.

Clay F

Voting for a sure loser throws away your vote. Defeats the purpose of voting at all imo.

Larry Darrell

The War (1994) is the one with Elijah Wood. It’s really good too. Also a Terrific Father’s Day film, but if I had to pick only one, I’d choose A Perfect World (1993).

Larry Darrell

There’s a comment down below that sounds like she saw the sequel, The Legend of Zorro (2005) before the channel, and that’s where the mixup happened. If that’s true, then… that kinda sucks.

Clay F

"the mask of sorrow" -- was that intentional or a Freudian slip?

Clay F

I like Trouble with The Curve

Patrick

Descendants is great and so unappreciated. But IAS 🤨, u never go full....

Clay F

I voted Road to Perdition (2002) (Tom Hanks), which is a father-teen son movie that makes you think. There is a richness about it. In contrast, Zorro has a theme encompassing a father/adult kid relationship. Also, she has apparently already seen the sequel Legend of Zorro, though I will be ok if Zorro wins.

Stick Figure Studios

Yeah, that totally sucks because LEGEND is awful whereas the first one is a grand film.

Scott

Tough choice for me between The Road to Perdition and The Mask of Zorro. I ultimately went with the happy one

Stick Figure Studios

Absolutely... and Anthony Hopkins... and James Horner's rousing score... and the spectacular stunt work...

Stick Figure Studios

If I had known that, I would have been pushing MASK long before this. It's a terrific movie.

Blake Evans

It’s not going to win, but I Am Sam rips my heart out to this day and I love it. Plus phenomenal soundtrack of Beatles covers.

Tim Weaver

I think it will resurface on an Eastwood director poll

Stick Figure Studios

it's a great film and has absolutely stunning cinematography by the late great Conrad Hall, the last film he ever shot and it won him a posthumous Oscar that was accepted by his son who is also a cinematographer.

Clarence Newman

Though my statement about Rylance being an appropriater stands.

Stick Figure Studios

I'm the opposite. I voted for MASK OF ZORRO because I didn't realize she hadn't already seen it or I would have been recommending it long before this (apparently she's only seen the sequel), but I do love ROAD TO PERDITION and if it wins, I won't be disappointed.

Tim Weaver

What a cruel insensitive thing to say. You know Sean Penn was nominated for an Oscar right??

Tim Weaver

My left foot was so brilliant. He's an extraordinary actor.

Rick Rodriguez

LMAO! I never thought I would see a neck and neck race between The Mask of Zorro and Road to Perdition.

Tim Weaver

That isn't how voting works. No such thing as a wasted vote.

Popcorn In Bed

i saw the legend of zorro! just once maybe-didn’t know there was another before it

Shawn Kildal

I'm confused on how The Mask of Zorro is considered a "Father's Day" movie. Not saying it's a bad movie or anything like that but I don't think it belongs on this particular poll.

Cole Jennett

Hard to say too much without giving away plot details, but there have been movies on other polls that fit more poorly than this, imo

Stick Figure Studios

Well, if it wins I'll be happy. It's a terrific film. I love and I have no doubt you will too. :-)

Tim Weaver

That makes sense. The Hurricane was def a tour de force. The academy does that fairly often. Russell Crowe won for Gladiator which doesn't hold a candle to the previous years The insider.

Jim

She absolutely would.

Tim Weaver

Soundtrack is definitely inspired choice!

Stick Figure Studios

A major character being a father to another major character is a key story/plot element.

Powers209

Another June without Kelly's Heroes, or Fun with Dick and Jane hitting a poll. I'm afraid that at my age and declining health, I won't live long enough to see it. Someone throw me a bone here.

Shawn Kildal

Unfortunately, the movies that least belong on certain polls tend to win though. Like The Revenant as an "Animal movie".

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

The only one here that really interests me is The Mask of Zorro for Cassie react to. I absolutely love that movie—easily one of my all-time favorites, and yeah, I even enjoyed the sequel, The Legend of Zorro, who reminds me of another favorite superhero of mine where he was inspired by Zorro. Lol. As for the rest, most of them I've never even heard of and don't sound interesting to me but I get everybody have different taste of movies. I think I've heard of Mr. Mom with Michael Keaton, but I've never actually seen it. I have seen Father of the Bride—the 1991 version, not the 1950 one—and I remember liking it.

Catherine LW

I love that film but old classics never win. No point in even putting them in a poll. That’s why I’m done with polls.

MikeLL

The Mask of Zorro is the greatest modern adventure film. Made like it was back in the Golden Era of Hollywood.

Clarence Newman

I'm thinking there are a couple of her Dad's favourites thrown in.

Anthony Carlson

You know, since it’s very (already) unlikely Trouble with the Curve will win, I will put that in my Pick a Flick.

Jim

I’m going to watch “On Golden Pond” again even if it doesn’t end up being picked. It’s the most real performance in a movie that I think I’ve ever seen. Henry Fonda’s final role and the only role with his daughter Jane Fonda. Their relationship was extremely difficult and their performance together is just so incredibly real.

Cole Jennett

If I can’t win, I hope you do then

Shawn Kildal

There are countless movies that have a father in it. But sentimentality, not considered a Father's day movie. I wouldn't consider The Empire Strikes Back a Father's day movie but it qualifies more than Zorro.

Cole Jennett

lol, then you will be stuck with People Like Us (2012) which I may be the only person on the planet to have seen.😂

Shawn Kildal

If it's one of Cassie's dad's favorites than I take back everything.

Keith Brown

I understand your feelings just when I was going to give up I have two winners coming up/Patton and Charlie Wilson’s War so I will keep polling away no matter how bad the odds seem to be.

Clay F

You're both right. I was thinking minor kid, not adult. I edited my post. A suitable movie for Father's Day.

Vlad D

I voted for Mr. Mom. But, since the movie is an older one it'll have little chance of winning

Clay F

Clarence -- she gave no indication that any choice in the poll was her Dad's favorite.

Clay F

wasted vote = vote that has infinitesimal chance of affecting the outcome of the poll. In contrast, take poll 2 for example. The top two are currently only separated by 2 votes. Your options: A. Vote on sure loser not in the top 2. Same as not voting. B. Vote your preference of the top 2 = meaningful vote that has realistic chance of affecting the outcome of the poll.

Clay F

I like People Like Us (2012) -- watched a couple of times.

Cole Jennett

He’s just quoting Tropic Thunder, I’m sure there was no harm intended

Cole Jennett

It will be so hard for me not to vote for The Judge, but I will switch my vote eventually as I have a clear preference between the top 2

Patrick Flanagan

Plenty of good actors have been nominated for bad performances before. It's an Oscar tradition

Terry Yelmene

This group is REALLY TOUGH. There are too many great ones listed. And in this group, 'On Golden Pond' won't make it. But, it's so very, very important for Cassie to see/react to OGP someday (hopefully soon, and with another family member, father, or mother). This father-daughter relationship, perhaps as complicated as any has ever been, can never be conveyed more poignantly than this one, as it wasn't a story, as much as it was a dual surrender to guilt, and to time, for the real-life actors themselves. Fonda, Fonda, and Hepburn gave the performances of their lives, as they knew it would be the last for that too injured, yet most precious relationship. No OGP won't win, but I hope Cassie and the community with her, get to experience this great film sometime.

Patrick Flanagan

Richard - Lots of dum-dums of a certain political persuasion push the conspiracy theory that Tom Hanks is guilty of a certain crime

Clay F

Not only is it the best movie in the poll and it has a father and son, but there is signficant dynamics in that father-son relationship.

Clay F

She has apparently seen the sequel Legend of Zorro (2005), so that is enough for me to scratch The Mask of Zorro (1998). Plus, Road to Perdition is the better movie. Yet, The Mask of Zorro is a good movie.

Justin Samlal

Cassie would LOVE Father of the Bride!

Richard Maurer

Did I miss something? When did Zorro become such a revered film. Not a bad film but a little corny and overblown. Certainly not in the league of Road to Perdition.

Richard Maurer

That’s right, I forget about that nonsense. Supposedly he went in the basement of that DC pizza joint that didn’t actually have a basement or something along those lines?

Tray-T

Road to perdition is underrated

Brian's Dog

We need 'I am Sam' so she can fully understand the Tropic Thunder references. That said, I voted for Road to Perdition.

bknsty14

I have to go with the baseball movie. I’m finding my love for baseball again this season and I know that’s a movie she’d like.

Clay F

About an hour ago in Extra Butter Chat, she said: "i looked this one up-because kc movie should be a show in for me but got turned off by a kidnapped child 🥺 should have given it a chance though still"

SeanATX

More of y’all need to watch IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER! Daniel Day-Lewis!!

JC762

I voted for Mr. Mom. I always try to vote for what I think will be the best reaction, not my favorite movie or the “best” movie necessarily. I’m not always right of course, but I come pretty close to guessing good reactions.

Tim Weaver

I feel same about I am Sam which is getting more ridicule ( tropic thunder reference) than praise which I did not expect.

Tim Weaver

Same. While I didn't choose Mr Kim,that's how I approach these polls.

Dan M

Is there a Son of Dracula movie? Would Hotel Transylvania qualify as a Father’s Day movie?

Rick Rodriguez

In this day and age, it's become an endearing throwback to old fashioned derring do and swashbuckling adventure. Has all the classic tropes. I'm a fan.

Rick Rodriguez

Love it. It will get it's day on the channel.

Dan M

I agree that it’s a fantastic movie with a phenomenal cast. But is it more of a gangster movie or is it more a father-son movie? I think the former.

Rick Rodriguez

I need to rewatch Road. I remember finding it a little precious. But that was 22 years ago.

Seymor Butz

I missed that, and it makes a lot more sense.

Dan M

Woobie

LukeG84

I voted for Trouble with the Curve. Clint Eastwood and Amy Adams. A nice slow-paced, feel-good movie that I know Cassie to enjoy.

Walter

The Mask of Zorro? Um...I mean, there are fathers in the movie, I suppose, but how did this end up on a Father's Day poll?

Dan M

Put on those snorkeling fins and win this race!

Chris Thom

Eyy Road to Perdition finally made a poll. That's a good one. I think you'd like The Descendants too. Another good Alexander Payne film.

Tim Weaver

That isn't why we need her to react to it. Its the last thing she will think of.

Tim Weaver

Fun with dick and Jane better be the original if it's ever offered

Tim Weaver

Literally almost lost my beer on that comment Lol

Win

Road to Perdition or Mr Mom for me,I have not seen On Golden Pond , I heard it’s good , so I’m gonna watch it this week

Tim Weaver

We aren't voting best picture we are voting what best reaction will be for her channel

Tim Weaver

Oh he totally knew what he was saying. Shitty response.

Walter

Mr Mom! I do really like Road To Perdition too.

Ike

“Yeah 220, 221, whatever it takes,” has been in my vocabulary for years when I am overwhelmed by details. However,… “Mask of Zorro” is my vote. One of my dad’s favorite movies.

Chris Thom

Wow I didn't even know that was a remake.

Chris Thom

I've been wanting to see that for forever. This might be a good excuse.

Chris Thom

Has there only been one Sam Mendes film on the channel? Skyfall?

YodatheHobbit

The love of the father is a big theme in the film.

Chris Thom

Oh my first thought of father and son in that was Paul Newman and Daniel Craig. Whoops.

Chris Thom

The Descendants is great. Hope she watches that at some point regardless.

Chris Thom

Ohhh good catch. That might be perfect. In a slightly twisted way.

Walter

Ok. I don't agree but that's okay. I still like the movie.

Chris Thom

There's some good ones there. Think you might like some if you give them a chance.

Chris Thom

The score is really good.

Chris Thom

I remember it being good but have zero memory of how it ended. Dakota Fanning was freakishly talented for a child actor.

YodatheHobbit

Overrated, it was the talk of the town during awards season. I found it boring and hard to follow in 2002, bunch of men in suits shooting at each other for no reason, and of course I love Tom Hanks. Much preferred Bridge of Spies.

TheSingulatarian

"Riding the Bus with My Sister" Makes "I am Sam" look like "King Lear". It was a TV movie though.

Katie Jackson

Poll 2 had so many good choices! I went with The Mask Of Zorro, one of my favorite movies. Antonio Banderas, Anthony Hopkins & Catherine Zeta Jones are incredible in it. Some other great ones that i wish I could vote for are Trouble With The Curve, Three Men and a Little Lady & Yours, Mine and Ours with Lucille Ball.

YodatheHobbit

If either Trouble with The Curve, Three Men and a Little Lady(it's time to complete that story!), or Mask of Zorro wins, I'll be happy.

Walter

wait...I take it back. You're right. Took me a minute to remember - it's been a while. Mea culpa - it is a big theme in the film.

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

I've never seen Road to Perdition or even heard of it until now—had no idea it was a DC film based on a DC graphic novel. And with Tom Hanks in it? How the heck did that one slip past me? Lol. Just looked it up on Wikipedia, and now I'm intrigued. It kinda gives off Dick Tracy vibes. I've watched Watchmen, so I know that's DC, but even the Constantine movie with Keanu Reeves flew under my radar. Didn't realize he was a DC character either until I got into the Constantine TV series with Matt Ryan. Then boom—he's showed up in Arrow, and eventually became a regular in DC's Legends of Tomorrow. I loved that whole crossover era in the Arrowverse. Also, I still want to see Cassie react to The Mask of Zorro—didn't even know she watched the sequel before the original. Lol. I've always loved that movie. And I really love how Zorro inspired Batman. Bob Kane was obviously a fan, and once you know that, you can totally see the influence—masked vigilante, dual identity, justice with flair. Same goes for Green Arrow being clearly modeled after Robin Hood, but with Batman's wealth. Oliver Queen's basically Robin Hood with Bruce Wayne's bank account. Lol.

Cole Jennett

I didn’t want to get into any spoilers, glad you agree.

Mike A

My choices currently have 9% and 6% of the vote. Guess I'm not with the majority, LOL.

Julie

I'm shocked Mask of Zorro is winning. Don't get me wrong, I remember enjoying the movie and the music, but looking at this list it is no where near the top for me. After a struggle I went with On Golden Pond. It fits the "Father" theme on multiple levels and a movie I think it would give Cassie all the feels.

Julie

I'm with you there

Mark Vaderr

Fantastic movie. William Powell is great in it.

Tracey Mendenhall Porreca

I've seen it. It's a very good movie. I just think the newer ones tend to win the polls more often because the older ones are less known

Mark Vaderr

It's a crime. Although I'm not surprised.

Mark Vaderr

I agree with you Richard, Mask of Zorro is nothing special at all.

Clay F

Yeah, most voting in the poll have probably never seen On Golden Pond

Mark Vaderr

On Golden Pond is a great movie, Henry Fonda ends his career on a super high note, and the first ever pairing with him and Katherine Hepburn. Seeing these two legendary actors on the screen is a true delight. This movie is a must watch for Cassie & Carly. The Mask of Zorro? Yuck! There's a reason why this movie was pushed back a few times for its initial release. It's not good.

Clay F

Yes, a gangster movie setting but the father-kid dynamic is significant (some ways key) till the very end of the movie. I still process the end of Road to Perdition.

Chris Thom

Doesn't his real life daughter play his daughter in the film? Haven't seen it yet. But I've seen it referenced a bit.

Clay F

On Golden Pond increased to 5%. I would say safely out of finishing in last plast.

Clay F

Most people voting in the poll have probably never seen On Golden Pond. I remember when it was released.

Thomas Meredith

Anything with Spencer Tracy gets my vote.

Mark Vaderr

Yes, she does. It's a fantastic movie. The characters in it are great.

Gábor Árki

I'm surprised that The Mask of Zorro dominates this poll so much. Although it probably has the biggest name recognition of all and many other channels reacted to it already. Also, hasn't Cassie already seen this movie? Both this and its sequel, The Legend of Zorro, are marked as already seen. Have these been marked as such by a mistake, or will this be a re-watch reaction?

Chris B.

Mask of Zorro for a fathers day poll is an odd choice. Love the movie, just think it's an odd one for the purposes here. I picked Mr. Mom. It's very 80's but carried well by Keaton, Garr, and the kids.

Clarence Newman

Just woke up and saw that my pick of On Golden Pond is sitting at a healthy 5%. If we were talking body fat, Cassie would be putting it on her shortlist right now.

Clarence Newman

"Maybe we could....pick some strawberries." I remember seeing Jim Carrey on a chat show in his pre-Ace Ventura days. As part of his act, he did a superb Henry Fonda from On Golden Pond - the way his face slowly collapsed into a perfect imitation of Henry's. Genius.

Clarence Newman

My pick too. One of those films that would have a faint smile on Cassie's lips the whole time.

Doug Fisher

Well... "MoZ" does have a strong father theme within it.

Doug Fisher

If you do what I did and just resign yourself to the fact that Patreon/YouTube polls live in Bizzaro land and that most people voting have very limited Film exposure and knowledge... it makes it a little easier to swallow... a little.

Doug Fisher

Glad you remembered Walter... but it could also or additionally be as simple as it being a movie her Dad likes, which she tends to put in these polls (as she puts her Mom's favorite movies in Mother's Day Polls).

Doug Fisher

Great movie! I am not sure if it tonally fits Father's Day... but still a great movie.

Doug Fisher

Two likely reasons, it is a major theme of the movie and it is probably on her Dad's favorites list.

Samuel Champ

Mask of Zorro is beating On Golden Pond by 22%? I'm definitely in the minority in this group.

Richard Maurer

Dan - there is indeed a film called Son of Dracula (1943) and a film called Dracula’s Daughter (1936) - Universal really milked the Dracula thing for all that they could. Can’t really recommend either of them though, best to stick with Son of Godzilla. Never watched Hotel Transylvania. Can’t comment on that one.

Richard Maurer

Tim - no, you are voting for what you think will be the best reaction. I always vote for the best film in the poll and let Cassie handle the reaction part.

Richard Maurer

Question to the people voting for Zorro. Did you first see it when you were a kid? Because I first saw it as an adult and I think nostalgia might be a factor here. No shade, I admit that nostalgia affects my feelings towards certain films.

K, Zachary

On Golden Pond is such a beautiful movie. So is I am Sam, such a tear-jerker. Mask Of Zorro. Don't get me wrong it's a decent flick. We probably won't watch it again it's not worth watching a second time. All the rest of the movies on this poll are. It's just our opinion. Our opinion doesn't matter so if Cassie likes it that's all that counts in the end. We may we missing the point (which tends to happen a lot) Oh well. That's the great thing about this channel if you don't like you don't the movie you don't have to watch it. Though that's the second future movie this week that we're not going to watch 🤷. But that's ok. Cassie will still get a likes from us.

Richard Maurer

Dan - I never care that much about a polls theme (unless I came up with the poll idea, then I care A LOT), I just vote for the best film on the poll. I’m one of the ones who voted for The Revenant in the controversial animal themed poll.

Joe J

Cassie, "The Mask of Zorro" shows as watched on your Letterbox.

Popcorn In Bed

i didn’t know there was 2, i saw the second one-the legend one once but not the one from the 90s!

Popcorn In Bed

it was a mistake-i have seen the second-not the first though

MikeLL

There is a father/daughter relationship that is important to the main plot of Mask of Zorro.

K, Zachary

Oh! Well I was wrong I stand corrected. I really don't have any idea what I am talking about most of the time I am talking out of my.... Nevermind I appreciate the input Mike. Thanks for setting this old dog straight.

Nolofinwe

im Mainly referring to him as an actor getting every part ... now Pedro Pascal is taking over getting every part in hollywierd . and the 523 monkee movies ... BTW how many are left😅

Clay F

This is the likely finish. The percents may change by a point or two, but this ranking is likely fixed. The top 2 (or top 3) go to the subsequent poll (championship poll). 1. The Mask of Zorro (1998) -- 27% 2. Road to Perdition (2002) - 23% 3. Mr. Mom (1983) -- 13%

Cole Jennett

I would have been about 20 when I saw it in the theater. Loved it! Still really enjoy it, and think she will too.

Cole Jennett

That doesn’t really address the pedophile part🤔

Rick Rodriguez

Road is more akin tonally to...The Godfather. Not the same but definitely not akin to a living comic like Dick Tracy. If Zorro wins, I think Cassie will enjoy tremendously. It's a fun as heck movie.

Rick Rodriguez

Seem it multiple times since and it does hold up. It'll be a great reaction/watch if it wins.

Tim C

Trouble with a Curve is a good Movie !

Richard Maurer

You made me think of a good April fools prank Cassie could pull next year. They set up a poll, end it April first, then announce she’ll be watching the film with the LEAST votes. The angry comments alone would be worth it.

Clarence Newman

Oh hell yes. Our films would suddenly be front-runners.

Clarence Newman

I'm a huge Clint fan, and a few years ago, I checked out his IMDB page so I could sweep up any of his films I'd missed. Turns out I'd only missed one, and that one was Trouble With The Curve. Fun little film.

Doc Larry/old geezer

Good choices on this Father’s Day polls any one of these choices I would enjoy watching along with Cassie and Carly and see their reactions. I’m glad to see there’s an abundance of movies to watch.

Clay F

In the championship poll, will be interesting to see if The Mask of Zorro (1998) beats The Wrestler (2008) and Kramer vs Kramer (1979).

ShadowStunts

Would you consider watching Andor? It's 2 seasons, 24 episodes long in total, just finished up. It's also easily the best Star Wars project since the original trilogy. Definitely a must watch!

Chris Thom

Haven't seen that yet. Didn't know Clint Eastwood directed it. Do vaguely remember N'Sync guy being in it.

Chris Thom

Just yesterday the algorithm sent me a vid of Jim doing an impression of Gary Oldman as Dracula. Lol. I'd forgot how good Damon Wayans was too.

Chris Thom

I don't remember a ton about it tbh. Solid action/adventure but somewhat forgettable. Peak Catherine Zeta Jones' beauty. I remember that.

Clay F

A big +1 for Andor.

Mike Lemon

I think we better not risk it being a rewatch and go with another Zorro movie she has definitely not seen. I nominate Zorro: The Gay Blade (1981). (jk)

Clay F

Yeah, 1998 is a sweet spot for nostalgia by 35-48 year olds — a big voting group.

Tim Weaver

I don't speak doucheanese. Translate please.

Anthony V Petty

I guess I don’t remember Mask of Zorro being a father centric film. It’s ok I guess. Road to Perdition was my vote.

Terry Yelmene

Hummm... something in that request belies that claim.

Gray

I'd no idea Zorro was this popular my pick was Road to Perdition great film with a stellar cast.

Chris Thom

Road to Perdition is an excellent film. Great story, acting, cinematography, score by Thomas Newman...do hope you choose to watch it on the channel at some point. It's one of the best. Directed by Sam Mendes, one of the top directors of all time.

Mark Vaderr

I like that Cassie is open to seeing the original "Father of the Bride" and "Yours, Mine and Ours." I feel that Cassie should also see the original "Cheaper by the Dozen", which is completely different than the re-make. Someone also suggested that "Life with Father" should have been in one of these polls, and I agree wholeheartedly with that.

Richard Maurer

Zorro and the Three Musketeers (1963) not jk

John Cranberry

This may be the first time I have chosen a movie that is winning the poll. Go Zorro!

fastecp1

I don't remember The Mask of Zorro being that good. It wouldn't have been my first pic or second.

Old As Dirt Bert

Revered or not, it's a movie Cassie will really enjoy. All the Kernels like when that happens.

Old As Dirt Bert

That "most notable" is fun, with several of the cast from the older Robin Hood Cassie watched in the past including Basil Rathbone. It has one of the best swordfights ever on film between Rathbone and Tyrone Power. Eugene Pallette plays a padre, much like he played Friar Tuck in Robin Hood.

Old As Dirt Bert

Watching The Mask of Zorro is how Michael Douglas got hooked on Catherine Zeta-Jones, and they've been married for 25 years.

Nolofinwe

theyre all guilty in that godforsaken wilderness find a pretty young girl it starts sexually comprimising scripts groom them. And nobody in Hollywood knew about Weinstein .Rickey Gervace wasnt kidding . He was warning then keep your mouth shut for a while

Likely candidates for championship poll: --The Wrestler (2008) --Kramer vs. Kramer (1979) --The Mask of Zorro (1998) --Road to Perdition (2002) If 3rd place goes, then add Mr. Mom (1983) from Poll 2, and Over the Top (1987) or Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner (1967) from Poll 1. I thnk The Mask of Zorro (1998) will win (which is fine), but I am hoping for Road to Perdition (2002) or The Wrestler (2008). Kramer vs. Kramer (1979) has a chance, which would also be fine. I have nostalgia for Mr. Mom (1983), but I don't see a 3rd place winning the championship poll.

Joe J

IMO, The Mask of Zorro (1st) and Road to Perdition (2nd). She could watch them both...no harm in that, lol.

Stranger2Reality

It isn't very good, but beyond that, it's a very bizarre choice for a "father movie" as other than some mostly throwaway silly twist it has basically nothing to do with fatherhood. So, very on brand for this channel for the one movie that least has to do with the theme to be the one that wins. This always happens here without fail 🤦

Stranger2Reality

It has almost nothing to do with fatherhood, it's exceptionally strange that it's even in this poll. But whomever picks these polls always manages to throw in some popular blockbuster that has nothing to do with the poll, and that's what always ends up winning. Honestly it's just comical at this point.

Mark Deadman

One film I always enjoy watching with my father is The Boat That Rocked. It's a film that he always enjoys watching.

Tara ✨💫

I wish On Golden Pond had a chance. Katharine Hepburn along with real life father and daughter Henry and Jane Fonda. I always wonder what it's like for your real life child to play your child as different characters.

Tara ✨💫

If I remember correctly, Meryl Streep won her first Oscar for Kramer vs Kramer which put her on the map. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Cassie, you have a few Oscar winning and nominated movies on these polls

Mike Lemon

??? Was that a reply to something?

Patrick Flanagan

One character is father to another character, but I wouldn't characterize the film as a celebration of fatherhood or anything

Patrick Flanagan

Way down in the comments this person made a remark implicating Tom Hanks in a certain despicable crime involving children, a popular conspiracy theory among people of a certain political persuasion.

D. T. Nelson

These aren't movies about fathers, these are movies that Cassie's father likes. So, not a bizzare choice at all. And the Mask of Zorro is good. Great fun right up there with movies like Pirates of the Carabbean. Now the sequel, The Legend of Zorro was not as good. My top two picks on this poll took the top two spots. That's never happened before.

Tim Weaver

I am Sam got Annihilated. I'll freely admit, I did not in a million years see Mask of Zorro crushing as it did in a fathers day poll.
