Good job Ted! You may have won it thanks to me sitting this one out! You’re welcome 😉😂

WestBound

I feel like the humor In this is a little too raunchy for her liking .

Catherine LW

Never heard of it but it sounds good. Mickey Rooney and small cameo with Robert Mitchum.

Just Plain Bob

Love how well the classics are doing in these Pick-a-flick drawings. I haven’t seen “The Human Comedy” before and am looking forward to seeing it for the first time with Cassie.

Just Plain Bob

I am very underwhelmed by the idea of a sequels poll. If I wanted sequels I’d go to the theater, since remakes and sequels are all Hollywood puts out anymore. So many good original films still unseen, I hate to see reaction slots taken up by sequel garbage.

Mike Lemon

I tried to get "none of the above" on the poll. Let's face it, most sequels are t*******.

Clay F

Agree. With very rare exceptions (e.g., GF2, Aliens), sequels are bad, especially compared to the many good original films still unseen. I call it the bad sequel rule. Mike -- I saw in chat your comment asking for "none of the above" choice in the poll.

Clay F

In a 1943 film?

Just Plain Bob

Yep. And when a sequel is good, like Godfather 2, it really stands out. I’d advocate like hell for a reaction to something like that. But good sequels are few and far between. I’m hard pressed to think of any good ones that Cassie hasn’t already seen.

Mike Lemon

Let's think about the idea of 'if they pick a movie already seen (on the "already watched" list), they can pick another movie.' Why would anybody pick anything other than Robocop? You're guaranteed to have a redo if you win, so if you are one of those people with 50 movies they want, why not pick something you know she has seen then wait and make up your mind later? I vote for follow the rules- 1. Content Restrictions: e. Must be a movie I've never seen (check out my Letterboxd for movies I've seen). -If they can't do that then tough. Maybe next time.

JPDotCom23

I need to start bribing people to get my titles in there, never heard of some of these titles that have been winning

Milton Reduxed

Some people speak like Cassie is a nun

LukeG84

Cassie spotted my comments about Jumanji: The Next Level and Split, so despite the poll winning movie not being for me, I’m so glad I joined the live instead of watching the recording. Now it makes sense why she never watched the Jumanji sequel. She didn’t know it existed.

Mark Vaderr

Cassie, I stayed in the chat for an hour after the chat was disabled. Do I get my movie picked out of loyalty to you? 🥺

WestBound

I'm not saying she's a nun ..I'm not even saying she shouldn't watch it . But I'm expecting her not to like it

Milton Reduxed

I see your point but there are some film series I would like to push on with like Terminator & Pink Panther, and this poll gives them a chance Also it's not intended as a strictly sequels poll but a more broad 'what's next' sort of mood; Like people were bringing up more Jack Ryan movies or US Marshalls

Erik Locquiao

If Cassie is going sequels, she should finish the Predator movies, including Alien vs Predator and its sequel.

Milton Reduxed

Sometimes there's gaps in Cassie's Letterbox It's cool to have a definitive winner on the night, but it's only fair to let the winner re-submit if there's a problem with their selection for whatever reason

Milton Reduxed

I like things about T3. Arnie's wonderful flair for deadpan comedy, the apocalypse, also Claire Danes is always good

Joe J

Was there a list of the movies submitted like last month?

Mike Lemon

Short Circuit 2, Rurouni Kenshin 2 and 3, Addams Family Values... There are a few out there, but I can't think of any of the ones of the franchises she's started already. There are a couple I enjoy but they aren't good Highlander 3 (there is no 2), Terminator 3, and half of Robocop 2 come to mind.

Dave

Yeah, I don't think we need to dwell on it. If Cassie feels it is fair for the winner to submit another title, then that's what we will do. It was never up for a vote, the Queen has spoken.

MikeLL

I agree. I started watching The Human Comedy after the drawing. It's one I've never seen before, also, and let me tell you, it is one special heart warming film. I can't wait to watch the whole thing with Cassie.

Mike Lemon

If there are gaps in the Letterboxd, that is Cassie's fault, and sure get a new pick, but if it is on the list, tough cookies.

Richard Maurer

Mike - can’t go there with you. A win is a win. And I really don’t see Cassie telling someone who made a mistake “ sucks to be you!” UNLESS. Their pick transfers to me if they make a mistake, I’m all about that!

Mike Lemon

"It was never up for a vote, the Queen has spoken." Yeah, and she wrote it down in the rules, which I quoted.

kaiielle

The post has been updated with that link.

Richard Maurer

I don’t understand watching sequels just because they’re sequels. I’m fine with the few good ones. But watching bad movies just to say you’ve watched them - I don’t get it.

Samuel Champ

I've never seen the winner,, looked it up and it seems like it could be very good. I'll watcjh it with you. I'm glad it's a comedy. If you're going to be taking on Game of Thrones, you're going to need a few comedies mixed in.

Happy Hanukkah

Milton, some of us remember when Cassie was still in Alberta, spinning around outside and singing "The fields are alive with the sound of music..."

Richard Maurer

Maybe I’m a fortune teller because I don’t see a YouTube edit in The Human Comedy’s future. I could be wrong - but I’m probably not.

Dave

Mike - Check the rules again, this time under the "Additional Information" section, where she states "You can check out my Letterboxd page to see what movies I've seen. It's not 100% complete, so if you're chosen, and I've seen the movie you requested, I will have you choose another one for me." So she has both written and spoken.

Just Plain Bob

To the unabashed supporters of sequels, I say the same thing that parents say to destructive children, “This is why we can’t have nice things.” Every time that a $100 million sequel is produced, that’s five moderately priced ORIGINAL films that don’t get made. Since most sequels are just retreads of the original, I’d suggest just buying the original and watching it over and over again. That’s what I’ve done.

Happy Hanukkah

RM - In its more extreme forms, it's practically OCD.

Richard Maurer

The Hayes code (the government forcing the studios to “self-censor” movies) was in effect for 10 years when this movie came out. There won’t be anything in there that could possibly offend Cassie.

JohnnyUtah

Welp I'll have other backlog to catch up on! Maybe run lotr with Carly, haven't ventured there yet. Beverly Hills Cop 2 100x of the time with those options.

Just Plain Bob

A peace offering to those that love sequels. I have several sequels in my personal collection. For instance, I have every Friday the 13th film. The difference is that I recognize that most of them are garbage and I’d never ask Cassie to waste a reaction slot on them. I have them for mostly nostalgia reasons and recognize that they have little to appeal to many viewers.

WestBound

I never said she'd be offended of what's in the there . You don't have to be offended by something to not like it .

WestBound

Wow I'm sorry I totally misread ...I thought the movie that won was TED the taking bear movie 😂 😂

Mike Lemon

Let me quote myself- "If there are gaps in the Letterboxd, that is Cassie's fault, and sure get a new pick, but if it is on the list, tough cookies."

Mike Lemon

"I’d suggest just buying the original and watching it over and over again." That's why I have seen Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) hundreds of times, but 2- maybe half a dozen, -3 just two or three times.

Clay F

Below are most of the sequels mentioned listed by PR ranking number. 65. US Marshalls (1998) [RT 30%] 82. The Matrix Revolutions (2003) [RT 33%] 84. Red Dragon (2002) [RT 69%] 148.

Phil Stubblefield

Oh, I'm pretty sure you're right! You shall henceforth be known as "Richard the Seer" or the "Oracle of Maurer". 😂

Richard Maurer

JP Bob - thank you. I love horror movies but hope I we never have to endure all the sequels to Friday the Thirteenth, Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream, The Conjuring, etc., etc., etc.

Richard Maurer

I’ll have to come out with a list of predictions for 2026 before New Year’s Eve. ;-)

Phil Stubblefield

And I *loathe* most horror movies, so I also thank you, Just Plain Bob! 😁

Mike Lemon

Tangent- @Richard- This may be blasphemy but I think the best Friday the 13th for Cassie is the remake. Leave all the originals on the shelf.

Dave

I understand that's what you want, but that's not what's going to happen. Letterboxd or no Letterboxd, if Cassie has already seen the pick, Cassie will have the winner choose another one for her.

Phil Stubblefield

Philip G., I'd like to personally welcome you to the Society of Badly Mistaken Comments! I consider myself a founding member... 😂

Richard Maurer

10 Cloverfield Lane and A Shot in the Dark are the only two I would actually care about. Maybe Manhunter.

Mike Lemon

Then change the rule. Or just have everyone not make a pick, or make it easy for everyone, since it will no longer matter what they pick, and just put every eligible person on the list automatically.

Happy Hanukkah

Apropos sequels, one of the more ironic things I've seen recently is some people agitating for a Free Guy sequel. 🙄

Richard Maurer

Mike - I vote none. But if we had to watch one, I’d say just pick one of the hockey mask ones before Jason X, doesn’t really matter which one that much.

Richard Maurer

Philip - I thought that too until I heard Cassie say the name of the movie.

Clay F

I think likely winner would be one of the below: 65. US Marshalls (1998) [RT 30%] 82. The Matrix Revolutions (2003) [RT 33%] 84. Red Dragon (2002) [RT 69%] 148. BHC 2 (1987) [RT 48%] 152. Predator 2 (1990) [RT 31%] 157. Terminator 3 (2003) [RT 70%] 487. Rambo 2 (1985) [RT 33%] 594. Scream 2 (1997) [RT 82%] 822. Alien3 (1992) [RT 44%]

Dave

I can't change the rule or override the rules that have been set by Cassie any more than you can. Again, I understand your suggestion, but Cassie has decided how she is going to handle the situation if and when it comes up. Not sure why you are continuing to argue with me when I am merely stating that the solution for the issue you raised is already in place - a solution that the vast majority of people participating agree with, and most importantly a solution that Cassie has set forth.

Clay F

I am not a fan of sequels poll, but I think she wants to do one, so I support it. My current top choices (still thinking about it): 291. GF3 (1990) [RT 66%] 303. 10 Cloverfield Lane (2016) [RT 91%] 1100. Furiosa (2024) [RT 90%] Others I might consider: 65. US Marshalls (1998) [RT 30%] 157. Terminator 3 (2003) [RT 70%] 508. Manhunter (1986) [RT 94%] 893. A Shot in the Dark (1964) [RT 94%]

Just Plain Bob

Manhunter doesn’t really belong in the list. It came out a half decade before Silence of the Lambs. Great movie, too.

Happy Hanukkah

I think Beverly Hills Cop 2 could do well in a poll. And while I can live without it, Rambo 2 (of all movies!) might be a good fit for Cassie.

Powers209

I was Popped @11:05 I'm getting closer.

Just Plain Bob

IF, and that’s a huge “if”, Cassie were to ever indulge in the Friday the 13th series, the first four would be the way to go. Without delving into spoiler-y details, each of the first four offers something crucial to the common perception of the character (for instance, how and when he obtains his iconic mask, or Corey Feldman’s well known appearance in one installment and what it portends, Crispin Glover’s legendary dance, the motivation behind the initial murders, etc). After that, any pretense of original storytelling really goes out the window. The legend is built in those first four. No worries, though, I seriously doubt Cassie will ever watch any of them, not even for Halloween.

Clay F

Agree that BHC 2 should do well. My best guess is winner would be one of below: 148. BHC 2 (1987) [RT 48%] 152. Predator 2 (1990) [RT 31%] 157. Terminator 3 (2003) [RT 70%] 487. Rambo 2 (1985) [RT 33%]

Clay F

Yeah - I was puzzled by saying “raunchy.” Now, I understand if you thought TED.

Mike Lemon

"The legend is built in those first four" ...and 6. That is when he gets his "powers". And we can't forget Kane Hodder.

Cole Jennett

Bogus Journey would do well in a poll I think. It’s not great on a first watch but repeat viewings, I think it’s a toss up which I like best.

Clay F

Good point Cole. I think will do well I almost included Bogus Journey in my list of likely winners. For some reason, I am thinking thinking Predator 2, T3, or BHC 2 will win. Maybe the star power.

Mike Lemon

"but Cassie has decided how she is going to handle the situation if and when it comes up." She asked a question, not made a statement. "Not sure why you are continuing to argue ... the solution ... is already in place " Two reasons- 1- Because it isn't. 2- Without rules the whole picking what movie you want when you enter is meaningless. See my original comment- "Why would anybody pick anything other than Robocop? ... why not pick something you know she has seen then wait and make up your mind later?" What about the other rules? Can we pick The Bare Wench Project and just say, "Oops, how about Leonard Part 6?" if we win? Exorcist but we get another pick? Law and Order: Criminal Intent? Why have rules at all if they are meaningless?

Cole Jennett

Action movies get a bump for sure

Just Plain Bob

Kane Hodder is a legend and deservedly so. But my favorite Jason was Richard Brooker.

Gray

My pick is on her letterboxd as seen and she has said that's an error and she hasn't so i think if you win then you can pick a movie regardless if she has seen it as it's so unlikely your last in the pot you should be rewarded with another pick.

Gray

Another classic I don't mind that it's still new to me, GoT tonight! 2 episodes too excellent!. Any chance we can go back to YT live as for us watching on replay there isn't the chat saved.

Gray

Still a few fun sequels to watch but you right on the whole they are almost always much inferior to the original

Neill Shaughness

Iopop.kppm.oll P Lon p pp ok l ok Lol lompoo

Joe J

Matrix 1, 2, 3 is one story. I love Predator 2, entertaining with a good cast. 10 Cloverfield was a letdown for me, it was not what I expected or wanted.

Joe J

There were around 30 films submitted I would have interest in watching, the winner ain't one of them.😕

Dave

Mike - your argument that the solution isn't already in place doesn't make sense in light of the rules that are written on the form for all to see, the rules that have been there from the beginning, the rules that offer a solution to the issue of a movie already seen. Of course, you are more than welcome to do exactly as you propose: to put down RoboCop or any other movie that Cassie has already seen. You can do that with every entry until the end of time if you want. Should your name ever get picked, just be thankful that Cassie doesn't do what you propose and say "tough luck" and move on to the next person. She will ask you for another pick, and she'll do that for anyone who does the same thing. It seems to me that is the kind and generous and right thing to do, and I'm sure that you or anyone else would be grateful that she gives another chance rather than moving on to the next person. If you can't consider it that way, then there's nothing more to say, seeing as you are determined to win whatever argument this has turned into. As for me, I'm done explaining how it works. Make of it as you will. Have a great rest of your day or evening, whichever you find yourself in.

Richard Maurer

LotR with Carly is a lot of fun. It helps that Cassie, despite loving it the first time she watched, forgot quite a bit of it.

Clay F

If I had to choose what I think the predicted winner -- that would be Predator 2.

Ian A

I read the paragraph under this video and gasped. He chose "The Human C...". MY BRAIN IMMEDIATELY SCREAMED...NO! NO! NOoO!! and then I saw Comedy. Phew!!! Thank god. Bullet dodged! 🤣

Mike A

Watching this a few hours later, and it's wild to think that Cassie could be watching the first episode of Game of Thrones while I type this. It's gonna be quite the journey.

Milton Reduxed

Saving the Human Centipede for Halloween, Human Centipede II Directors Cut in 2026

bgb1975 (Brian)

Sweet! The Human Comedy is a great one! Good call, Ted!

Chris Thom

Just jamming to the outro music?

Chris Thom

Oh I thought Ted was the winning movie. lol

Chris Thom

Raley's has some incredible carrot cake. So good.

Nolofinwe

The human comedy the human comedy?…say it ain’t so Joe ! Of all the fun, Mickey Rooney movies, the human comedy for God sakes ……. Plus, it’s baseball season how about “eight men out” how about , the great race for the God sake.

Erik Locquiao

Why not? The Predators are BA and cool. Most of those movies are entertaining, not saying they’re exceptional but still fun, except for the 2018 movie.

Chris Thom

Yeah I miss being able to see the chat.

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

Honestly, I've always found it kind of strange when people flat-out refuse to watch sequels, prequels, remakes, or reboots—no matter how good or bad they turn out. I mean, just because I don't vibe with something doesn't mean I'm going to label it trash right away. Sure, not every sequel or reboot that Hollywood cranks out is great—plenty are hit or miss. But that doesn't mean I automatically write them all off. Yeah, I'll be blunt if something handles real events or historical figures poorly, but even that's rare. I'm not out here condemning every single thing that's not "original." Let's be real—true originality died a long time ago, way before Hollywood even really took off. It's all about how the story is told, not whether it's brand new. I'm honestly tired of the endless bashing, nitpicking, acting like every movie needs to be picked apart in some deep, philosophical way. I just don't have the patience for that. I just want to watch the stuff I love—movies, shows, cartoons, games—no matter if they're a masterpiece or a total flop. And honestly, I always had a soft spot for shared universes, connected stories, sequels, prequels, spin-offs, crossovers—you name it. Star Trek, Star Wars, DC, Marvel, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers… Even if not everything in those worlds is perfect, I'll still show up and enjoy the ride. That's what it's all about for me. I might not love every single version from all those franchises, but Star Trek's the one exception—I've genuinely enjoyed every iteration since it first launched in the '60s. Same with Power Rangers. I've watched all 30 seasons and all three movies, and yeah, I stuck with it all the way through. That kind of consistency matters to me.

Just Plain Bob

Question: Do you watch EVERY movie that comes out? If not, you’re clearly using some criteria to decide what to watch and what not to watch. Just as I do and just as every other person does. I do prefer originality. But I’ll watch a remake or sequel if I hear from a reliable source that it’s good. Two of my absolute favorite films of all time are “The Thing” and “Dawn of the Dead”, a remake and a sequel, respectively. Another of my top 10 favorites is “Dellamorte Dellamore”, an utterly original film. Good movies are good movies, regardless of origin. But it’s absurd to pretend that Hollywood pumps out sequel after sequel and remake after remake because of their artistic integrity. They do it because people like to watch something they’re already familiar with. But most of them are utter dross. As for the claim there are no new stories to tell, that’s ridiculous. There are always new stories to tell. The rest of your angst seems to be directed at the fact that some people break down films into their component parts. Simple solution, if you don’t like that, don’t read it. Like I do with most remakes and sequels.

Mark Vaderr

There was no outro music, only silence. I remained there until I was the last one. Holding out my faith in Cassie, that she would return.

Happy Hanukkah

"totally misread" ... 🤣🤣🤣 At least I got a good laugh out of this. Thanks. :-)

Happy Hanukkah

Since we're not watching Ted and Cassie has already seen Paddington, I assume next up will be Cocaine Bear.

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

I never said there are no new stories to tell—that's not what I meant at all. What I did say is that true originality, in the purest sense, has been gone for a long time. Almost everything today, whether intentionally or not, is influenced by what came before. That doesn't mean creativity is dead—far from it. It just means a lot of stories are told through new lenses, with different voices, cultures, angles, and styles. And that’s still worth something. And no, I obviously don't watch every movie that comes out—who does? I go for what genuinely grabs me. Sometimes that's sci-fi or superhero stuff since I love those genres, but I'm not locked in a box. I've enjoyed plenty of action films, comedies, animation, and even horror, depending on the vibe. I try to stay open-minded. But what wears me down is the constant wave of people who feel the need to tear almost everything apart. It's not just one or two voices either—it's everywhere. On pages and channels I follow, in comment sections, in reviews. It follows you around online whether you're looking for it or not. So no, the "simple solution" of just not reading it doesn't always work when it's constantly in your face. It becomes draining, especially when you're just trying to enjoy what you enjoy without being told it's trash every five minutes. I get that Hollywood isn't always driven by "artistic integrity"—yeah, money plays a big part, we all know that. But sometimes these reboots, sequels, and remakes do bring something meaningful or fresh. And yeah, some suck. But I don't write off everything I dislike or didn't click with as "waste." I try to judge things on more than just whether they're part of a franchise or not. Bottom line: I'm not against criticism. I just get tired of the constant need to prove how much smarter or more "discerning" someone is by nitpicking everything to death. Let people enjoy things—and if you don't, cool, but not everything needs to have an explanation. Sometimes a movie is just a movie, and it's okay to like what you like without turning it into a debate every time.

Richard Maurer

Now hear me out - What If……we replaced comedy with Centipede! Great idea, right?

Just Plain Bob

I’m curious now. What drew you to this particular series of comments and responses? I didn’t notice anyone giving long winded breakdowns of why they dislike a particular film. I simply said I didn’t like the idea of a poll consisting entirely of sequels (particularly the ones that Cassie mentioned) and from there we segued into my love of the admittedly garbage-esque Friday the 13th series, favorite Jasons, which entries in the series might conceivably be worth watching, etc.

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

Big congrats to Ted on the win! I'll be honest—I'd never heard of The Human Comedy until now, so I looked it up. Turns out it's a classic from the 1940s, which explains why it flew under my radar. I don't usually connect with stuff that far back, but there are a few timeless gems I've always loved—like the old-school Superman and Batman, Looney Tunes, Tom & Jerry, Star Trek, Lost in Space, The Addams Family, The Munsters... even Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (1922). Still, I'd really love to see Cassie react to the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie from 1990. Wild timing that it's heading back to theaters from August 15–21 for its 35th anniversary. Yeah, the concept is ridiculous—mutant turtles fighting crime—but I grew up on them. They were a huge part of my childhood, and honestly, my whole family loved them too. Still do.

Clarence Newman

Neil. Just looking at your posts, I find myself in need of clarification.

Neill Shaughness

Hmm. I think a coworker of mine may have gotten a hold of my phone

Clarence Newman

I would say no to 10 Cloverfield Lane, but John Goodman elevates it. A Shot In The Dark would start Cassie off on her Clouseau trail (although I watched it again recently, and it struck me as a *little* bit on the silly side. This is not true of the 70s Panthers.) Rambo 2 is the only other one I care about. It's too iconic to miss.

TheSingulatarian

An early appearance by Van Johnson as well. Johnson was sort of the Tom Hanks of the late 1940s and early 1950s.

Happy Hanukkah

Not only is this a great idea, it should be merely the first episode of a Marvel-style What If series. First up, "What If ... Cassie reacted to The Human Centipede?" Then, "What If ... Cassie reacted to Cannonball Run? And only Cannonball Run, forever?" "What If ... all reactors reacted to *that* version of The Island of Dr Moreau at the same time?" ("What If ... they made a sequel to The Room ... starring Pedro Pascal?")

Mojo One Thousand

Not sure if it is possible, or who the wizard is that built the popping picker, but I threw a suggestion in the live chat. It would be nice if the popped corn names were put up to the left and/or right of the pan once they jump out. Can be tough to see sometimes if you are still in with a chance until it gets down to the last 10-ish.

Mike Lemon

OK, what the hell Patreon? Why did the page refresh randomly? Let's try this again- "your argument that the solution isn't already in place doesn't make sense in light of the rules that are written on the form for all to see" The rule I quoted?- "1. Content Restrictions: e. Must be a movie I've never seen (check out my Letterboxd for movies I've seen)." - And the caveat for IF CASSIE MESSED UP- "You can check out my Letterboxd page to see what movies I've seen. **It's not 100% complete,** so if you're chosen, and I've seen the movie you requested, I will have you choose another one for me." [highlight mine] Right there in black and white. So- "Of course, you are more than welcome to do exactly as you propose: to put down RoboCop or any other movie that Cassie has already seen. " - are you, Dave, a moderator only, officially re-writting the rules for the channel and overruling what the creators have written? "It seems to me that is the kind and generous and right thing to do" It lessens the chances of the people that do follow the rules, hardly the "right thing to do".

Mike Lemon

I've brought it up a couple of times. He has said that he's busy but it has a small chance to be a future upgrade.

Chris Thom

Go ninja go ninja GO

Mike Lemon

@Chris- Again (I think that was you before), wrong movie, that was 2. The song for 1 is T-U-R-T-L-E Power.

Chris Thom

I don't remember that one. Going to look it up now.

Chris Thom

Oh damn that one's kind of hot too. Seriously debating buying that off iTunes. Lol. Super vague memories of it. Being six years old Vanilla Ice just kinda swooped in and stole that thunder.

All great Ideas!…..well, almost all. Scratch that Cannonball Run idea. Bridge too far and all that. But not every idea is a gem. But don’t be discouraged, other than the CR one you were on a roll. How about, for Cannonball Run, she skips the first one and watches Cannonball Run II - that way everyone is miserable. Diabolical, right?

Dave

No Mike, I am not re-writing the rules, I don't have that authority. I am only using RoboCop as an example, just as you were. Sorry that wasn't more clear.

Richard Maurer

Why not? How about the fact that Cassie is watching GoT now and has one less movie slot. I don’t think filling the two remaining spots with mediocre Predator movies would be a popular idea.

Richard Maurer

That’s sadly beautiful. Still not getting your movie picked though.

Richard Maurer

The problem with watching bad or even mediocre sequels is simple. Cassie only watches so many movies a month. There are so many high quality movies she hasn’t watched yet. Taking up those spaces with money-grab sequels is a waste of precious time.

Richard Maurer

Ted should add ‘not the foul-mouthed, living teddy bear’ to his user name so we don’t get confused again.

Chris Thom

Hannibal would make for an interesting PIB reaction. Also I just enjoy the movie.

Chris Thom

Aww that's kind of heartbreaking. She is quite a lovely presence in our lives. Have to admit.

Mike Lemon

Then you may want to edit, because the rules explicitly say, unless CASSIE MADE A MISTAKE on Letterboxd (I'll even be lenient on the just watched movies, like Wargames this month), you can not submit a movie she has already seen. Which comes back to my original comment answering Cassie's question, my vote is, if you don't follow the rules as written, you should be disqualified if you win. Then the next person who did follow the rules should be the winner.

Ian Tonge

Looking forward to The Human Comedy - it'll be a first time watch for me. Congrats to Ted. Layer Cake would have been a fine choice too - not only does it star Daniel Craig, but you've got Chief O'Brien, Dumbledore, Q (Bond, not Trek) and a host of other familiar faces getting up to crime caper shenanigans.

My_Cousin_Mose

I am also not a fan of the sequels poll. Not with so many other great movies yet to be watched.

Chris Thom

That's what I saw too. I need to stop trying to speed read. I'm not good at it.

Sean

There are some great sequels. Im glad your doing a poll to watch some.

Erik Locquiao

Relax man, I’m just suggesting something I personally would like to see eventually on the channel. Isn’t that kinda the point and what everyone does? You don’t have to like every suggestion or even reaction she does but no reason to call out others for it. You don’t like the Predator movies, I do. Cool. If she watches them eventually, great, if not, oh well.

Richard Maurer

You asked “why not?” I gave a reason. So relax man :-)

Erik Locquiao

Again, my point being it's just a suggestion for a franchise I like and that's special to me. Doesn't mean I'm demanding it happen or she do them all at once. You don't have to like/agree with it. I don't care for certain suggestions ppl put out there either or even certain movies she's watched, and that's ok, but I don't go commenting on those about how much I didn't like it because other ppl did, and again, that's totally fine. All that aside, sincerely hope you have a nice day.

Joe J

Unimportant to me. I'm the last man standing or toast, lol.

Richard Maurer

I think a lot of people thought that. Some just took longer to find out it wasn’t.

Richard Maurer

I’m still hearing Human Centipede. Not sure why people have a problem with it. A delightful 2009 rom-com that Cassie would surely love! ❤️ ;-)

Richard Maurer

Same to you, friend. When people give their opinion on subjects that interest me I’m likely to make a comment, agree or disagree. No offense is meant when I disagree, but we are allowed to disagree here, as long as we don’t directly insult people while doing so. I mean, there is a reply button on every post for a reason.

bgb1975 (Brian)

The Great Race? Mickey Rooney wasn't in The Great Race! If you're going for Mickey Rooney - he plays Dingy Bell in "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"! And he nails it! "Quarters?! Whaddaya mean quarters?! You mean that you three all get a quarter and Benji and I have gotta split a quarter?!" But "The Great Race" is an awesome one, too!

Nolofinwe

No do you misunderstood I know the great race doesn't have Mickey Rooney with the guys got 100 movies that are really great anyhow I just think there are better ones than the human comedy but it'll be fine the great race has Curtis and Natalie and Jack Lemmon and Peter Falk is hysterical and it's a classic to me anyway I'm going to comedy

Clay F

Clarence — I think Rambo 2 would do well in the poll.

Erik Locquiao

I appreciate that. And that was my point, we are 100% allowed to disagree and you are obviously free to voice that, the way your initial comment was worded just didn’t feel respectful to me was all.

Richard Maurer

I didn’t intend any disrespect. Sorry if you took it that way. Intent isn’t always conveyed well through printed words.

Richard Maurer

I thought about modifying my original post but I’m honestly not sure what part you found to be disrespectful.

Just Plain Bob

Layer Cake is a fantastic movie. Doesn’t get enough love. Daniel Craig was cast as James Bond, in part, because of his performance in this movie. Personally, I think it’s better than any of the Bond movies starring Craig (with the possible exception of Casino Royale).

Just Plain Bob

A Cassie reaction to Cocaine Bear would be epic.

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

"Go Ninja Go Ninja Go" by Vanilla Ice is from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze (1991), and "Turtle Power" is from the first movie, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990). But honestly? The real jam will always be the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) cartoon theme song. That one still hits harder than both. Pure childhood energy. Lol. 🎵Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Heroes in the half shell Turtle Power! They're the world's most fearsome fighting team (We're really hip!)

Just Plain Bob

Clarence is the patient zero of this “Cannonball Run” epidemic. We really need to get him into quarantine or he’s just gonna infect more people.

Erik Locquiao

I very much appreciate that. And you’re right, I’ve been misinterpreted before too

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

I wasn't really drawn to anyone here giving long breakdowns about why they dislike a certain film—that's totally fine and actually refreshing when it's thoughtful and I apologize if I got a little bit carry away there. What I was more focused on are the folks who flat-out refuse to watch sequels, prequels, or remakes and just write them all off as bad. That's where I don't agree. Sure, there are tons of more amazing, high-quality movies I'd love to see Cassie react to. But there are also a lot of great sequels out there too—not all of them are lazy cash grabs or a waste of time. That's a pretty subjective call. Honestly, I don't think she needs to react to every masterpiece or so-called high-quality film. Sometimes it's just about good, fun popcorn flicks or even guilty pleasures—we all have a few of those. At least, I know I do. Lol. I enjoy plenty of "bad" or just-okay movies too, even though I obviously prefer the really well-made ones. But I think Cassie should stick to what she wants to watch—things that spark her interest—whether they're critically acclaimed or just fan favorites. Everyone's taste is different, and that's part of what makes reactions so fun to watch. I totally understand that some of you don't care for sequels, remakes, or reboots and feel like most of them are low-effort or a waste of your time. But from where I stand, it feels like some people treat movies too seriously—as if every film needs to be some deep, high-quality masterpiece to be worth watching. And honestly, I think that mindset takes some of the joy out of it.

Just Plain Bob

I actually agree with most of what you just said. I try to judge movies based on their own merits, and sequels can be great. But I think Cassie’s already seen most of those. I also agree that she shouldn’t drop everything and just start watching only those films that are critically acclaimed. “Out of Africa” comes to mind as a perfect example. It’s considered an “important” film and adored by critics. It put me to sleep. There are others that I love but recognize wouldn’t be a good fit for a reaction, such as “Hausu” (a really weird Japanese haunted house movie) and “Dellamorte Dellamore” (a really weird Italian zombie film), so I don’t advocate for them. It seems like our only real disagreement is that you are more likely to enjoy a remake or sequel than I am. That’s great, varied tastes in the community make it more interesting!

Above Average Dave

Once again, my film was not selected. Nor did I win the PowerBall jackpot. Coincidence!? I. THINK. NOT! The streaks continue!

Chris Thom

But did ya have FUN?!

Above Average Dave

Still having fun! (and without any meds!) Also, I'm a snappy dresser.

Clarence Newman

You all speak the truth. When I think of Cassie watching Cannonball Run, I get the same twitch that Victor gets when he's about to turn into Captain Chaos. On the bright side, though, I've never recommended Human Centipede.

Clarence Newman

To therefore sum up.....yes to The Great Race!

Clarence Newman

In terms of the type of films Cassie is watching, I would like to protest on behalf of the 60s. I would call it ageist if she wasn't going full Anna Nicole Smith on the 1940s.

Mark Vaderr

Although, Cassie is consistent. There are a couple of moments where she says the exact same thing in both reactions.

Mark Vaderr

I'm sure your Anna Nicole Smith joke is funny, but I'm not getting it.

Mark Vaderr

Cassie already said that she would watch Beverly Hills Cop 2, at a later date. I don't get the love for that sequel. If Cassie were to watch another sequel, let it be "Airplane 2: The Sequel". Especially with the Star Trek convention coming up.

Mark Vaderr

Richard- Yeah, but it was worth a shot, and Cassie did like my comment. If it made her laugh, then I'm satisfied.

Clarence Newman

It's well funny, Mark. You see, Anna Nicole Smith married an 80 year old billionaire while still virtually nubile - all kosher and above board by all accounts. And Cassie has recently been seen in the company of movies that are 80 years old. Therefore, and to otherwise sum up....I've done a joke.

Richard Maurer

You know what they say about jokes you have to explain.

Richard Maurer

Neither have I - not seriously anyway.

Clarence Newman

Mark's clearly more refined than the likes of you and me. It's no bad thing.

JohnnyUtah

I think it's funnier than the 1st, and fleshes out the characters more. I rank both very high in 80s films to be fair.

Catherine LW

I am getting old. I got your joke. 🥴

Joe J

1960's ain't getting no loving, that's for sure.

Canadianant

I wasn't sure what 1940s movie had to do with ample bosoms but now it makes sense

Chris Thom

I always think of Anna Nicole in that Naked Gun movie. Now it looks like it's Pamela Anderson.

Clarence Newman

Do not insult the legend that is Pammy. +1 for Barb Wire.

Happy Hanukkah

And if we must have TV show reactions, I insist on V.I.P.!

Mark White

Congrats Ted, I’ve never seen “The human Comedy”so it Will be another new one for me. Looking forward to it.

Mark White

“Barb Wire”now that’s one I have not heard mentioned in along time! I put that in the “ it’s so bad, it’s good category” along with “Masters of the Universe” 1987

Richard Maurer

Quite a few other people here, including myself, are experiencing this same phenomenon - that is not winning either PaF or Powerball. Which means this is a CONSPIRACY!!!!!!!!!

Richard Maurer

Normally I don’t like killer animal movies but that one is so ridiculous you can’t take it seriously, so I’m all for it.

Richard Maurer

A like from Cassie was about as much as you could expect to get :-)

Catherine LW

A few 60’s films worth watching: 1. The Miracle Worker - Cassie would enjoy this film about Helen Keller and Annie Sullivan (Helen’s teacher), focused on how education for the blind, deaf and mute came about. True story. 2. A Man for All Seasons - Paul Scofield won Best Actor for his excellent portrayal of Sir Thomas More facing the consequences of following his conscience rather than obeying his King (Henry VIII). 3. Zulu - Epic story of the Battle of Rorke’s Drift in South Africa. 150 British soldiers v. 4,000 Zulu warriors. 4. Dr. Zhivago - Another epic directed by David Lean (Lawrence of Arabia) regarding the romance between beautiful Lara and Dr. Zhivago (played by Omar Sharif who we saw in Lawrence of Arabia) with the backdrop of the Russian Revolution. Gorgeous cinematography as expected from Lean.

Above Average Dave

Just a reminder, folks, please don't confuse THE HUMAN COMEDY with THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE. I know, it's difficult because of the similarities, but, while subtle, the little differences of a completly different plot, relatable characters, interesting location, troubled period, legitimate pacing and, especially, lighting and effects, make this the superior film.

Clarence Newman

Haven't seen the first two, Catherine, but I know Man For All Seasons is highly regarded. I remember liking Zulu when I was a kid (that's the one with an astonishingly blond Michael Caine playing the most British character ever), so I wouldn't be against it. Dr Zhivago, however.... I've not seen it, but Lawrence of Arabia nearly did for me it was so "epic". I think I'll stick my Cool Hand Lukes and Bullitts and the like.

Happy Hanukkah

Mark: Funnily enough, "Masters of the Universe" is my own nickname for Barb Wire. 😏

Richard Maurer

But Human Centipede has a human centipede - CHECKMATE.

Above Average Dave

And there is comedy in HUMAN COMEDY because Mickey Rooney. In 1943. Jeepers and B'gosh! I take your Queen and your King!

Richard Maurer

Still not a FREAKIN’ HUMAN CENTIPEDE! My checkmate stands.

Above Average Dave

His Seven Ex-Wives (who are not for Seven Brothers) see your checkmate and raise you massive alimony checks, mate.

Richard Maurer

Someday the true genius of Human Centipede will be understood and it will stand alongside movies like Citizen Kane and The Godfather as one of the greatest achievements in cinema. No, it will stand above them!!!!!

Above Average Dave

It shall stand on it's own 100 feet! In this, I agree! No need now to meet on the field of honor. We shall retire to our separate estates in the comfort of a well reached agreement in both principle and substance. And thus, I remain, as always, your humble liege and esteemed phrend in philm! (not to be confused with phlegm in filum).

Richard Maurer

As Human Centipede has shown us, we as a people need to join together, in the unbreakable bonds of fellowship and unity. If we all are united as one, none may tear us asunder!

Chris Thom

I thought Centipede was the sequel. They're SO similar.

Mike Lemon

"...stand alongside movies like Citizen Kane ..." But, Citizen Kane is ter... not good. If it was played for the school movie in Springwood, Freddy would have every kid at his mercy. It's impossible to not fall asleep to that snorefest.

Richard Maurer

Mike - Citizen Kane is widely regarded as a masterpiece, whether it is one or not to a individual doesn’t change that fact. Personally, I don’t think Citizen Kane or The Godfather come close to being as good as LotR, but I also know the critics wouldn’t agree with me. That doesn’t mean they’re right, but they do have the clout to proclaim they are. Also, why are you taking an obviously silly post seriously?

Mark Vaderr

I know what Anna Nicole Smith was famous for. I now understand the meaning of your joke, but if I'm being honest, it's not that good of a joke. Nothing personal.

Clarence Newman

Opinions vary. Which reminds me.....Cassie needs to watch Roadhouse (1990)

Ted Little

It is thrilling that you picked my suggestion. Just one point: don't get hung up on the word "Comedy" in the title; it is a reference to Dante's Divine Comedy. This movie is funny, tender, sentimental, and sad. Laugh and bring Kleenex.

Above Average Dave

THESE POSTS WERE NOT — AND REMAIN NOT — SILLY! In fact, they are the CITIZEN KANE of posts! This is a hill I will fry on!

"In fact, they are the CITIZEN KANE of posts!" They're not anywhere close to being that bad.

I refuse to describe anything in such black and white terms, sir! Unless it's CITIZEN KANE, which I have seen twice. Which is actually three times more than I prefer.

Shawn Kildal

I saw my name simply fluttering away off to the side. Just like my hopes and dreams.

Happy Hanukkah

Congratulations on your win. (And yes, your clarification is worthwhile.)

Richard Maurer

Rambo II is an unnecessary sequel - imo.

Clay F

There hasn’t been any further discussion on sequels poll, so maybe won’t happen. I am not a fan of the likely winners If the influx of GoT fans is significant (who knows), maybe they will influence poll results in general away from movies like Rambo 2 or Predator 2 or other 80s/90s action movies. But I know there are patrons who are 80s/90s action movies fans, and I would be happy for them if they get a reaction to Rambo 2, Predator 2, etc.

Above Average Dave

I refuse to acknowledge any so-called "ballet" movie where the grand pliés are so obviously amateurish as to ruin the entire premise of the film. Not really buying the échappés, either, which I think were CGI or animated or done with claymation. I walked out 7 minutes in, as should have any viewer with even the slightest appreciation for ballet, never mind the nuances of breakdancing and dub step. Trash.

Happy Hanukkah

I actually happened to see The White Crow (how confusing!) in the theater. I didn't walk out, and it did have positive elements, but I can't really recommend it. If we weren't such great animal lovers, we would probably have derived more enjoyment from locking the swan and the crow in a cage and letting them have at it. On the other hand, I have and still very much recommend White Nights* (1985), starring Mikhail Baryshnikov and also Gregory Hines. No claymation here! * What is it with dance movies and their monochromatic colors?!
