Well this was one world i would never want to “jump” into. It was just relentless, never giving you a minute to get over what you were seeing before the next thing. It was very different from anything I have seen before but I struggled with this one 😳

Sin City (2005) - Full Reaction - Popcorn In Bed

Watch the full reaction to Sin City on Popcorn In Bed.

Comments

Tyler Foster

I know many people insist that the only thing that matters is that you expand your horizons, and to each their own, but I definitely thought this one would be pretty unrelentingly dark for you...

Phil Stubblefield

Yeah, I wasn't sure whether I wanted to see this one, but you may have convinced me to spend my time on things I would enjoy more... Thank you, my similarly sensitive friend! 😊

Wesley White

I had a hunch you would struggle with this one! Me on the other hand, this is one of my favorite movies! I first saw this in the theater when I was finally old enough to see R rated movies, in other words, 17 lol! I commend you for watching this movie Cassie, even I didn't vote for this one for you to watch, but what can you do! On the positive side of things with this movie however, this has one heck of a star studded cast and each one of them played their part perfectly! I never read the graphic novel which this film is based on, but the action and guns blazing is what got me into this movie lol! I also like how each segment is played out just like the graphic novel itself, very clever! Hands down my favorite segment is the Bruce Willis story ark, if there's anything I hate more than anything is pedos and r**ists, seeing what Bruce Willis does to the Yellow Rat Bastard at the end of the second half of the story ark is so satisfying! I'll say this though, this was a good choice to watch since one of its main actors recently passed away, Michael Madsen! Only one of these actors I actually recently met in person, Carla Gugino, she plays Marv's paroll officer, you may recognize her from "Night At the Museum" and the "Spy Kids" movies, but she was also in that one bad movie you reacted to recently "Son In Law"! She was very nice and very beautiful! Fun fact, the creator of this graphic novel, Frank Miller makes a cameo in this movie, he plays the priest that Marv shoots in the confession booth lol! In my opinion, if there was any death scene that was actually hilarious, it would be Benicio Del Toro's death, first getting his hand cut off by a throwing star in the shape of (you know what), then he slips on his severed hand and gets the throwing star stuck in his rear end and finally after not seeing his pistol barrel getting blocked and he goes to shoot it and the slide back fires into his forehead, that makes me laugh every time when it comes to villain deaths, can't help it lol🤣 I'll give this a watch when I get a chance, lately I've been in a DC Animated Movie marathon, especially ones with Batman, many of which you must watch/react to! Love and support Cassie, hope you are doing well, you (and Carly) are the best, and God bless you and the family🥰😇🙏🤗😁😉✌🌹

Jeff

I think every comment is going to start with some sort of “this is not a Cassie type movie but”. No buts for me, it’s not my kind of movie either. Now we’ve both seen it so we can move on again to something fun and happy.

Choof

Based on comic book miniseries by Frank Miller. He also co-directed this movie. He was one of the most acclaimed writers and artists in comics in the 80s and 90s. His work on Daredevil in the 70s and 80s was a lot of the inspiration for the Netflix show and his story "The Dark Knight Returns" about an alternative future Batman was hugely influential on the entire industry. His modern work the last 20 years is extremely divisive and IMO his art now is putrid but no one can deny his influence overall. He also made the "300" comic, and that movie just like this is deliberately trying to mimic the visual look and even individual panels from the comics as close as it can

Milton Reduxed

''Welcome to Sin City. This town beckons to the tough, the corrupt, the brokenhearted. Some call it dark… Hard-boiled. Then there are those who call it home — Crooked cops, sexy dames, desperate vigilantes. Some are seeking revenge, others lust after redemption''

Clarence Newman

You didn’t like this one, Cassie? I am shocked and stunned, and not a little amazed.

Dave

Cassie's internal monologue during the outro: "How do I get the last 2 hours of my life back?"

Patrick Flanagan

I liked this a lot when I saw it 20 years ago but I suspect it would not hold up well on a rematch today. There's a difference between trying to evoke an older style of storytelling through pastiche or tribute, and turning up the volume so high that what's intended as sincere tribute comes across as cringeworthy try-too-hard goofiness.

Shawn Kildal

Ugh. Seeing Cassie's reaction to this, I'm even more bummed Midnight Run didn't win.

Mike Lemon

" lately I've been in a DC Animated Movie marathon, " Be sure to get Flashpoint Paradox and Green Lantern: Emerald Knights, and if you can, listen to the Batman: Gotham Knight commentary track.

Clarence Newman

I watched that a week ago, Shawn. Definitely more fun.

Shawn Kildal

Well said. Game of Thrones here we come. (sarcasm, I do apologize)

Clarence Newman

Cassie. I don't mean to take advantage of you when you're all vulnerable and freaked out, but.....Every Which But Loose.

Jeff

Oh God

TheSingulatarian

I hope this does not put you off Robert Rodriquez movies entirely. He has made a number of movies that would be more to your liking Cassie. "Spy Kids," "Alitta Battle Angel", "Desperado" ,"El Mariachi " and "Once Upon a Time in Mexico". Artist of the graphic novel Frank Miller played a large role in putting this film together and it shows for better or worse. I understand that it is not your taste. Fine just move on down the road there are 100 years of movies more to your liking.

Shawn Kildal

Great Eddie Rabbit song! Cassie might like it.

Phillip Bates

I had a strong feeling that Cassie was not going to like this one. I'm watching this now and Cassie just said, "I've seen so many boobs this week." LOL - possibly the funniest thing I've seen/heard lately. This is why I haven't pushed for her to watch "About Last Night" with Rob Lowe and Demi Moore, because even though it's a really good movie with a nice love story, it has a lot of cursing, nudity and sex. This one is a hard watch with Cassie, because the uncomfortableness is at record highs. I really like Frank Miller's art and style in this movie, but it's over-the-topness isn't for everyone. I do agree with @TheSingulatarian that Robert Rodriquez movies like "Spy Kids", "Alita: Battle Angel", "Desperado", "El Mariachi" and "Once Upon a Time in Mexico", which I designed the movie poster for, are all good.

Nick Ireland

I think you should now watch the runner up - The Birdcage, to even things out.

Alex Gorell

I knew you weren’t gonna like this one at all.

Ike

You know, part of the journey is watching the occasional “BAD” movie. I did not vote for this one, BUT I won’t pretend that I knew what your response would be. 🙂 We’ve all been wrong before (Batman ‘89, Mad Max, Blazin’ Saddles, etc…). What’s up at bat next?

Samuel Champ

Yeah, there were better movies on the poll than this one. I watched it years ago and remember liking it. However, I can see why many wouldn't like it. You're honesty about the films you watch is why you're the GOAT.

Gryflet

Love this flick. Interweaved stories. It's implied Josh Hartnett is a hitman and the ladies sought revenge. Lol can tell you don't like violent movies/stories that embellish on the details.

Blake Evans

True this isnt the highest caliber of cinema, but i was mildly obsessed with this movie when it came out since I was in film school. The very idea that Robert Rodriguez shot this entire film pretty much in his garage studio in Austin TX with just a green screen and a stage still impresses me. The final product is up for debate though.

Just Plain Bob

Frank Miller’s storytelling and unique style were never on better display than in his “Sin City” graphic novels. I was fortunate enough to buy the hard back compendium of Sin City stories, “Big Damn Sin City”, before it skyrocketed in price. Almost 1,400 pages of noir goodness. This was a great film. Cassie might not have loved it, but it’s still one of my faves. You’d never guess it was made by the director of the “Spy Kids” franchise (Robert Rodriguez). It was one of several collaborations between Rodriguez and his buddy Quentin Tarantino (although Tarantino’s contribution to the film was minimal - the scene in the car when Jackie Boy/Benecio Del Toro is talking to Dwight/Clive Owen). I highly recommend their major collaborations: “From Dusk Till Dawn” (written and acted by Tarantino and directed by Rodriguez) and “Grindhouse” (Rodriguez directed the “Planet Terror” half, Tarantino the “Death Proof” half). “From Dusk Till Dawn” would be perfect for a “Scary but not too scary” reaction. The latter film attempts (successfully IMO) to capture the spirit of the grindhouse films of the 70s, with commercials for non-existent films preceding the Rodriguez half and sandwiched between his film and Tarantino’s. The whole thing runs three hours and every minute is genius. It would also be perfect Halloween viewing. It’s wildly different (Rodriguez’s half includes quite a bit of humor) and just scary enough to qualify for October viewing but not so scary as to actually creep anyone out. Oh yes, and Bruce Willis again makes an appearance. PS: Cassie, about the tar pits that Dwight takes the cops’ corpses to. You can’t swim in tar. You just sink, like quick sand. It’s why tar pits, such as the La Brea Tar Pits, became so famous. Prehistoric animals would become trapped, sink, die and be preserved in the tar. That’s also why the dinosaur statues decorated the site. PPS: Cassie, “Sin City” is definitely neo-noir but you shouldn’t think that it’s emblematic of the neo-noir style. You’ve seen neo-noir films before, it’s just that no one drew your attention to that facet of those films. Examples are as divergent as “Blade Runner” and “The Usual Suspects.” Common traits shared by noir films typically include a predominantly dark color palette (not necessarily black and white), some sort of mystery element and an emphasis on style and cinematography. Neo-noir are simply modern noir films, with noir films including the same traits already listed. You’ve also seen noir films on the channel before, most notably “Casablanca.”

Walter

I remember when I saw this in the theater, I thought it was pretty cool. I had read a lot of the books and to see it brought to life was really interesting. Years later I sat down to watch it again and that time I found it really unwatchable. Something had changed for me so I don't think I'll be watching this one again. It really is the comic brought to life, so for that, it is impressive.

Milton Reduxed

Where are the fans for this film? It won a poll ffs

Keith Brown

Cassie after this one you need to get yourself a break and go enjoy a fun classic movie ! Sit back, get a Cary Grant or James Stewart movie to laugh with to put yourself in a happy place again !

MikeLL

I'm having a very hard time trying to find a 2 hour 4 minute version of this film online. I'm finding many 2 hours 21 minute versions of the film. Edit: After reading some comments I skipped to the outro. Wow. Really didn't hit for her and I can't say it hit for me when I saw it in the theaters when it came out. I really didn't think too much about it. I could probably rent it, but I'm going to wait for it to come to one of my services before I watch the full reaction. I'm sure not going to rent it.

Jeri1979

Would be great if you could tell us which version of the movie you are watching everytime. This is the 124 minutes theatrical version. Unfortunately I own the 142 minutes recut and cant even buy the 124 minutes theatrical version here in Germany, only the 118 minutes german version, which is running faster and cant be synced. Even internet archive has only the longer recut. Unfortunately there are always so much problems with the different versions of the movies if you live outside the US. Lately with Mad Max 3 I bought 2 versions on 2 different streaming service because I could not sync the movie only to to find out Cassie was watching an outside US version. That really sucked. Thats of course not Cassies fault, but to know the exact lentgh of the movie would really help to identify the correct version.

Clarence Newman

Yeah, conspicuously elsewhere. You have to remember, Milt, a massive majority of Cassie's patrons don't comment at all.

Art of Free Speech

I'm with you, Cassie. I have never understood the appeal of this film. "Struggled" is putting it nicely.

Just Plain Bob

I’ll comment. The graphic novels are great and so is this film. Some people don’t like it. That’s fine. I abhor romantic comedies. That’s fine, too.

JL_83

haven’t seen this in 20 years when it was released theatrically; Kill Bill came to mind while watching it

Jacob King

Sin City is constructed entirely out of cliches and tropes, the characters are all stock characters and, for the fans, we’ve all seen these exact situations and stories a hundred times before. The fun part is asking what if they all existed at once, in one place and everyone knew each other? A direct equivalent would be Sondheim’s Into The Woods. If you don’t know the fairytales that play would be completely incomprehensible and slightly deranged. The casual violence in Sin City is a lot but it’s cartoon violence that assumes the audience is in on the joke.

Chris Thom

She would ADORE Freddy Got Fingered.

Chris Thom

It's a bit fun to watch mom and dad running around looking for the glasses on top of their head, not gonna lie. But eventually you have to take pity and tell them what's up.

Chris Thom

Hulk (2003) had some neat wipe effects that kept the comic book feel.

Chris Thom

Lol. She's struggling to find the words to tell us how fast that movie went in one ear and out the other.

Clarence Newman

Except Every Which But Loose, Bob. That's a romantic comedy.

Steve Mercier

This a crime-noir, trope-heavy graphic novel come to life. I happen to love it, as I do the source material, but would never have picked it for you to watch. It's a lot, and it comes at you like a ton of bricks. I guess it's cool that you watched it, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if you didn't dig it.

Catherine LW

Ditto. I guessed it is not my cup of tea and your saying you struggled with it confirmed I won’t bother watching it.

Tara ✨💫

Cassie, I struggled with this movie too when I first watched it. I understand people love it and as Fandom Crusader commented "It's a fantastic representation of a graphic novel made for the screen..." but it's just not my thing and when I went straight to the outro, apparently it's not yours either. You should watch The Birdcage and laugh with Robin Williams, Gene Hackmen and Nathan Lane.

Just Plain Bob

Dammit, Clarence, don’t ruin it for me!

K, Zachary

This was like graphic novel made for the big screen. Yeah I admit it took me two or three times before I actually "got" it. That's actually normal for me. The violence, the tropes and a story that seemed to be get more confusing by the minute. I have no idea how this ended up in my DVD collection. Or where it even came from. My gf said it was too fast for her. She basically totally agreed with you. I would never want to jump into this world either. However we are still going to watch it with you. Before we do I want to tell you a little story......

Joe J

Same way I felt about "Bridesmaids", best part is, I didn't have to actually lose the 2 hours. 😂

Walter

yeah, those aspects of the film was pretty interesting. Very visually representative of comics.

Chris Thom

Dang twenty years old already. Time flies.

Chris Thom

I don't know if people have come back around on that one or if they will ever but I always enjoyed that one. Great score by Elfman.

Mojo One Thousand

Remember not every patron has access to full reactions, but they vote on polls. These comments may appear on the YT edit.

Joe J

I thought it was great, these movies are made for teenage boys and grown men with a lot of teenage boy still in them (haha).

Chris Thom

You might appreciate the artistry of it. The style is very distinct. The plots though are...not sure how to explain it. Pulpy and a bit silly.

Shawn Kildal

To Catch a Thief with Cary Grant is on the near horizon!

Joe J

This ain't no chick flick. GoT, anyone? 😂

Joe J

GoT will surely expand her horizons. 😂

Joe J

Birdcage? I would run for the hills.😂

Mojo One Thousand

It was pretty much how I thought it would go, there is very little redeeming character qualities (by design) for Cassie to cling to. I did enjoyed some of Cassie's one-liners far more than movie. I didn't like this first time I saw it, and still don't like it now. However, I watch all the reactions regardless of my opinions, because it seems the least I can do, considering most of the time these are chosen by us. Hopefully we do get "The Birdcage" and/or "Midnight Run" sooner rather than later, as I said in the poll, this would have been my last choice of those available.

Joe J

I always vote for what I want to see, since I'm paying the patron fee. Kinda works that way for most folks.

Flounder

Yeah posting the total running time of whatever version is being watched would be helpful

Phillip Bates

The Birdcage is hilarious and so much fun!

Joe J

Cassie just needed to channel her inner teenage boy, she would have loved it!

Walter

I remember The Birdcage being very funny and I feel confident Cassie wouold really enjoy it

Flounder

“Next Stop Wonderland” would be a perfect palette cleanser for her. A smart romantic comedy that includes a subplot of the mob putting out a contract for a hit on a fish. Stars Hope Davis and a cameo by Philip Seymour Hoffman that bookends the movie https://youtu.be/LbfNbPsed88

Brandon

Which version is this

Joe J

Not "better" movies, just different movies.

Joe J

GoT will be fun. 😂

Joe J

Clarence - she just needed to channel her inner teenage boy. 😂

Clay F

Surely it's the theatrical version. I am about to put on the reaction and will find out.

Art of Free Speech

@Joe J, See, I collected comics growing up. My brother and I went to the comic book store every Saturday (we would literally bike 12 miles there, and 12 miles home to do it). We were HUGE into comics, and this movie appealed to neither of us. It was too disjointed for us and too difficult to follow.

Joe J

Cassie picks fun and happy...we don't do that. 😂

Richard Maurer

Love this film. And I enjoyed your reaction to it Cassie. This reminded me of your reaction to The Crow, in that they’re both movies that are outside of your…..norm? Wheelhouse? Frame of reference? Not the typical movie you’d watch, which makes your reaction all the more interesting to me. I didn’t really think you’d love this, but I’m glad you watched it.

Art of Free Speech

@Fandom Crusader Too stylized, too difficult to follow. When my brother and I, both huge comic book fans, couldn't follow it, despite being excited to watch it, it was, in our opinion, poorly done. The 300 was much better done. Maybe it was just poorly written, and that's why so many of us find it hard to follow.

Richard Maurer

Tarantino in an interview called this, along with The Devil’s Rejects, the best films of 2005 - and I agree.

Joe J

I thought she'd just love it. 😂 Always fun to see her outside her comfort zone.

AdrianF

It's going to be messy for sure. To be fair to GoT, the gratuity does taper off after a few seasons. So there's that for the uninitiated to cling to.

Clay F

While what she would like is a consideration for me, it's not my No. 1 consideration. I generally vote for the movie I most want to see, whether or not I think she will like the movie.

AdrianF

A lot of the other reaction channels do exactly this, it's surprising that one of the biggest doesn't.

Richard Maurer

I voted for this - and I have no regrets. Good reaction.

AdrianF

Jeri, iTunes should have the 124 version there. It does for me in Europe.

Clay F

Ditto

Clay F

While there are slow parts to me, I overall love this movie especially the Marv (Micky Rourke) story = perfection to me – everything about how that character and his story are done. Secondarily, I like the Bruce Willis character arc. Carla Gugino is stunning. Other actors (Clive Owen, Rosario Dawson, Alexis Bledel, Brittany Murphy, even Jessica Alba, etc.) had their moments. I have never really read a comic book or graphic novel. Putting on your reaction now.

Ulf Jerlström

she does in the find your own copy link

Richard Maurer

Joe - agree. This was the best film in the poll, followed by Taxi Driver.

Richard Maurer

Clarence - you like Cannonball Run and Every Which Way but Loose. How can I take your opinions on film seriously?

Cole Jennett

I wonder what else she watched, because she ended up watching this before Game of Thrones even.🤔

Ulf Jerlström

frank millers stuff is hard its either you love it or hate ittoo the extremes this movie is just so beatiful the contrast and cinematography is masterclass but as a movie it's weird because its not an whole adaption of the graphic novel just some of them and not in order

Silver Machine

Hot garbage. It’s a mockery of an actual movie.

Above Average Dave

I knew this would not be a fave, Cassie. Alas, such is the Reactor Life® when you're left at the mercy of folks who like to watch you squirm outside your comfort zone. On the flip-side, this should get some eyeballs on YouTube. Here's hoping. Now these same folks will be forced to watch you smile and enjoy the comparative innocence and splendor of the 1950s French Riviera, the sauve cool of Cary Grant and the effortless beauty and class of Grace Kelly in TO CATCH A THIEF.

Joe J

Cassie secretly loved it...she just has to keep up appearances.😉

Richard Maurer

The fact that this isn’t a film that Cassie would normally watch just makes the reaction more interesting to me. While don’t think every reaction should to be films like this I do wish she’d do more of them. We’ve already seen literal hundreds of reactions with Cassie’s outro being “I loved this film!, so tender!”. Changing things up keeps it fresh.

Richard Maurer

Nobody’s forced to watch any of her reactions, Dave. When I don’t like a film she’s reacting to I just don’t watch.

Clay F

Batman v Superman? If you want additional dark/grittiness, go with “Batman v Superman” (2016) [RT 28%] [PR No. 683] inspired by the tone and grit of Frank Miller comics, as noted by LittleGalaxyBoy in a comment below. Overly dark, somber, depressing, w/violent tone and convoluted plot. Much more in those respects than Man of Steel. You indicated in Man of Steel outro, you missed lighter part of Superman/Clark Kent ("goofy, nerdy"). You can throw that out the window with Batman v Superman. You also said in Man of Steel outro: “I could have done with one less fight scene.” Forget that sentiment with Batman v Superman that is smothered in "a grim whirlwind of effects-driven action."

Clarence Newman

Richard. As I enjoy proving you wrong, I've just looked up the top 100 grossing movies of each year those two films were released AND the year Horror of Dracula came out. Every Which Way But Loose was the 38th most popular film of 1978 and Cannonball Run was the 45th most popular of 1981. Whereas!.....your piece of hot garbage is languishing at a lowly number 7 on the 1958 list. I rest my case, sir!

Clarence Newman

Isn't that the woke version of Debbie Does Dallas? (Hey, Chris started it.)

Above Average Dave

True, true. But you do go in an give it a like right?....RIGHT!?

Stick Figure Studios

Yeah, I knew you'd struggle with this is one, Cassie. I had read the Frank Miller SIN CITY comics, so I knew what I was in for when I first watched it and mostly enjoyed it, but It's always been a film I found I more admire for its impeccable craft and striking visuals than really love for its story and characters. It's like film noir on acid, it's like DICK TRACY infused with nihilism. Stylish and worth seeing, but not a particularly pleasant experience. Here's hoping you get to see MIDNIGHT RUN soon.

Richard Maurer

Seems like a lot of people are here because their film didn’t win the poll. Sorry but Sin City won, and I couldn’t be happier about it.

Richard Maurer

Opinions of others mean nothing to me. I know bad movies when I see them. And those two films that you like so much are bad films. So there, Clarence.

Richard Maurer

Dave - On YouTube, where it helps her, yes I do.

Joe J

"To Catch a Thief" will need the help Richard, lol.

Clarence Newman

I'm here purely to peddle my own superior wares. Time Machine anyone?

Uncle Phoenix

I think Sin City is what the Real World would look like IF you could see the World like John Coffie from “The Green Mile.”

Joe J

Cassie, when will GoT drop?

Richard Maurer

Just like Bringing Up Baby, I fear my help won’t be enough for that one. (I like Bringing Up Baby, just for the record)

Richard Maurer

Time Machine is one of the rare good movies you like, Clarence. But nowhere near as good as Sin City.

Joe J

Time Machine's pretty dark Clarence, you sure about that, lol.

Joe J

Thanks!

Night King01

Didn’t the dick tracy movie feel the same way? I think that has more problems but they are similar in their shortcomings.

Cole Jennett

That is often the case unfortunately. I would have thought you did the same but maybe you have been keeping your opinions on movies you don’t like just on the upcoming posts or polls. That’s fair.

Above Average Dave

Wait, everyone else doesn't have a matrixed array of 577 different Gmail accounts with the subroutine that allows them to log onto YouTube simultaneously through various browers and platforms to give Cassie likes!?! Did I wake up on the wrong side of my multiverse today!? How is this possible!? And where is my cup of caffeine!?!

Night King01

From the director of Spy Kids lol

Clarence Newman

Time Machine isn't dark at all, Joe! Rod Taylor in fine form, the greatest movie prop of all time (I want one), the witheringly adorable Yvette Mimieux, and the cuddly Morlocks to round it all off.

Night King01

The comic is pretty much an anthology of different stories centered around characters in Sin City.

Stick Figure Studios

Yes, the Dick Tracy movie had a somewhat similar style (many of the characters were equally grotesque and the world had an artificial comic book-like aesthetic), but it wasn't nearly as dark, violent or nihilistic. Like SIN CITY, its story and characters are its weakest element, but its stunning visuals are its strength. Plus, when Beatty did it, it was still a fresh and innovative approach. In fact, while both of them use some of the same sources of inspiration, the DICK TRACY movie could possibly have influenced Frank Miller's comic since the film was released in 1990 and the first SIN CITY comic came out in 1991. At any rate, they're both worth seeing with much in them to admire, but I think DICK TRACY is the better movie and would almost certainly be more enjoyable for Cassie.

Richard Maurer

Cole- I used to go to reactions and trash films I didn’t like, but I realized that at that point it’s over and done with, and it’s just sour grapes. Time to move on. I still do struggle with it sometimes though, I really wanted to go on the Jaws II reaction and say what waste of times it was. Also, Season 8 of GoT will be difficult to restraint myself, and I may have to make an exception to my own rule, but I will acknowledge my hypocrisy if I do.

Clarence Newman

See that? You can't even compliment this guy with a backhanded slap from a wriggling kipper. Devoid of joy and allergic to sunlight he is.

Cole Jennett

I do kinda wish that when people hate a movie, they didn’t feel a need to seek out the reaction just to trash it. Like, if you can’t say anything nice… When I love a movie, you will see me all over the comments, but when I hate one, I ignore it completely. Takes a lot of the stress away, lol

Richard Maurer

Dave - If we could do that pre-80’s films might actually do well on YouTube. ;-)

Cole Jennett

I appreciate you saying that. I just made a post about the topic. I just don’t see the point in “yucking others yum”. Free country of course, but when I love a movie, I want to talk to other people who love it too, not sift through all the haters, lol. Like I’m no fan of this movie, but I know a ton of people are, and there’s nothing wrong with that. There’s nothing wrong with hating it really either, just some things can go unsaid sometimes.

Joe J

Better to promote movies I want reactions to, than rag on those she's already watched, or may watch.

Gray

This reaction was cracking me up, haven't seen it for such a long time I forgot how over the top it was and seeing you reacting to it made me laugh. Also thought you watched GoT after this so what other shows have you been watching lol. For a second there I thought you recognised George Luz's actor from Band Of Brothers as one of Yellow guy's henchmen, always nice seeing those actors in other things we also had Bull Randleman's actor as one of the bullies in Dragon a Bruce Lee Story.

Just Plain Bob

Seeing the expected hate from people that don’t like this movie and voted for something else in the poll. As usual, a lot of performative posturing by those pretending to only be looking out for Cassie’s “best interest” as they see/interpret it, instead of being honest and just admitting they don’t like the film and wished something else had won. So, I’m hoping this will serve as a reminder to the “I told you so” patrons and “shame on you for forcing Cassie to watch this” crowd. Aside from the obvious (she’s a grown woman fully capable of deciding whether something should go on a poll), and the fact that she’s REPEATEDLY said that one purpose of the channel is to expose her to films she wouldn’t have watched otherwise, there’s also this: y’all are wrong as often as you’re right. Here are some some films that Cassie has either loved or expressed a deep appreciation for, but would’ve missed if patrons only voted for movies they were sure she’d like (and the reasons she wouldn’t like them per either patrons or Cassie’s statements re why she hadn’t watched them previously): *Lethal Weapon series (guy movies/violent) *Mad Max series (guy movies/violent) *Rocky series (guy movies/violent) *Star Trek (tv and film franchises - old tv shows/sci-fi) *Tucker and Dale vs Evil (scary/violent) *Top Gun franchise (guy movies) *The Passion of the Christ (not on a poll, but people assured her it was too tough/gruesome for her sensibilities) *Kill Bill (guy movies/too violent) *Leon: The Professional (violence/creepy relationship) *True Romance (guy movies/too violent) *Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (she doesn’t even like Tarantino) *Tombstone (violence/dusty western) *Bad News Bears (wouldn’t get the humor) *Planet of the Apes (original series, too old/effects are dated) *Everything else before 1980 (too old) And I’m sure, if I went thru her watched list, I’d find many others. On the flip side, patrons couldn’t wait for her to see “An Officer and a Gentleman”, she was gonna love it. She didn’t. At all. Even her own social circle can’t guess what she’ll like. On a couple of occasions, she’s recounted stories of girlfriends assuring her that movies she was about to watch were boring. “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” and “Bridge of Spies” both spring to mind. The point here is twofold. First, Cassie’s a grown woman and fully capable of deciding to exclude movies from polls (and obviously does or there would be hundreds of movies per poll). Second, no one can guess what she’ll end up liking. Now, I’ve said my piece, so let the hate rain down (masquerading as concern for Cassie’s well being).

It was a too much for me the first time, back in the day, I wasn't into these types of movies, was more the Oscar calibre movies, but over the years, with more Quentin Tarantino movies and Zack Snyder, they've grown on me, I actually finally watched it all the way thru and enjoyed it, I did make mention that this was probably not for Cassie, a lot of guys who enjoy "guy movies" really push stuff like this, which is not a movie girls like, it's their personal preference, I wish they'd stop doing that. 'The Godfather', 'Scarface', 'GoodFellas', are all guy movies. Just stick with the simple action/comedy stuff, great dramatic movies, watch your guy movie faves yourselves.

Just Plain Bob

I don’t care if you do. Skip it. That’s fine. PS: Thank you for your concern for my emotional well being. It’s touching and I’m sure it was heart felt.

Phil Stubblefield

Chris, I've also heard that it has a fantastic style, but I doubt whether that would be enough to offset the rest of it for me. Richard, the problem with Mr. Tarantino's endorsement is that I rarely agree with him on the definition of cinematic excellence. I absolutely *loved* the first two hours of The Hateful Eight, only for his trademark over-the-top violence and shock to ruin the ending for me. My rating of the film went from 9 to 4 in those final sequences. ☹️ (And I'm not even talking about Kurt Russell accidentally smashing that irreplaceable antique guitar!) I'm sure many of you will enjoy Cassie's reaction, but I guess the rest of us will probably go for a walk instead. 🚶🏼‍➡️

Milton Reduxed

If you want more girl-movies then get more girls to sign up and participate in polls. If the channel isn't going to feature movies guys like why would guys, who make up 90% of PiBs audience, stay subbed?

KingofCoo1

They were stating their opinion like you did. No one asked for your opinion in the first place either and yet you gave it.

JPDotCom23

Not talking about girl movies, don't start getting sucky here, 'Midnight Run' would've been fine. I wanted her to watch 'The Exorcist', you guys told me to back off, she has limitations, stuff like this, if we know she won't get or enjoy, should also qualify. Sometimes these types of movies go too far, the types of movies certain guys just get off on, if your girlfriend or wife won't watch it, why push it on her? Those are guy movies, just keep them to yourselves.

Milton Reduxed

I'm leaving this unasked for comment just to trigger Matt

KingofCoo1

Jamison seems like the expert on everyone.

KingofCoo1

It's is. Mockery doesn't equal bad though.

KingofCoo1

How dare you comment on a comment! Only I can comment!

My_Cousin_Mose

I haven't seen this since I was a teenager and I didn't care for the movie that much this go round. It was a great reaction though.

bgb1975 (Brian)

Ugh....can't believe this beat out both "The Birdcage" and "Midnight Run". When will people learn? Democracy doesn't work! :P

Milton Reduxed

Nobody is pushing anything so much customers suggesting & voting for films they are interested in seeing a reaction to If Cassie wanted to have a schedule of chick flicks, she could. But PiB is a business and Sin City is a movie with 8.0 on IMDB from 811K votes making it exceptionally popular

Milton Reduxed

To be fair this is considerably less gay than The Birdcage /j

Gray

you just going to add /j to post comments like that each time, cmon man.

Clay F

I was like you with respect to Sin City in that I didn't think I would like it (though I did love Pulp Fiction), and like you I leaned toward Oscar-awarded movies. I didn't even watch Sin City until few years after release, but when I did, I surprisingly loved it. The phrase "guy movies" is broad. I agree that The Godfather (1972) is a guy movie but signficant number of women like it. The Godfather (1972) = nominated for 11 Oscars, won 3 Oscars including Best Picture. No. 2 on American Film Institute (AFI) Top 100 Movies all time. I have long loved Tarantino, so maybe I should have not been surprised I liked Sin City. I like the visual style and dialogue of Sin City. My personal top 4 movies all time: 1. GF 2. GF2 3. Shawshank Redemption 4. Pulp Fiction.

Scott Macaulay

Interesting choice of movies. Your reaction is pretty much what I would have expected lol. Always fun regardless

Mike Lemon

1787?... oh, you meant for movie polls. Never.

Clay F

The ignorant masses. (Just kidding with you Brian). I felt like that 2 years ago when Adventures in Babysitting decisively beat Thelma & Louise in a poll. Not b/c I thought Cassie would necessarily like Thelma & Louise better, and I do like Adventures in Babysitting ok, but Thelma & Louise is much more profound movie imo and I would much rather see a reaction to that.

Kawaii Leonard

She watched the 1st 2 episodes of GOT before this, just hasn't been posted yet.

Gray

Originally I thought that too but on the live chat for Wargames othernight she had done a switch up and watched Sin City already but was watching GoT that night. Rather confusing haha.

Richard Maurer

Cole - totally agree. This reaction and the Thunderbolts reaction are full of comments eager to tell everyone how bad these movies are. But the fans of these movies aren’t going to suddenly change their minds about them, so what’s the point?

Richard Maurer

The only reason anyone told you to “back off” The Exorcist is because Cassie said she’s never watching it, so asking for it is a waste of time.

OddThomas

I still have PTSD from Game of Thrones. I might dip in to the odd episode but no way am I revisiting all of it.

JPDotCom23

Well I didn’t know it at the time, haven’t been here as long as the rest of you. So now we can agree all this graphic Frank Miller is a no for her as well, that’s all I’m saying.

Richard Maurer

I don’t always agree with Tarantino either, but I generally agree with his taste in movies.

Clay F

Great reaction. "That's Frodo!" I liked how you were attentive and had human responses. You seemed uncomfortable generally [e.g., "woof times woof"] during the reaction (but handling it), and in the outro you said you didn't "love" the movie and thought the movie "weird." Yet, you didn't seem to articulate detailed negative comments. Less intense, for example, than Highlander, Blade, Coming to America, Das Boot, Total Recall, Red Dawn, Batman 89, and Howard the Duck. "I want to reach over and taste Goldie's sweat one more time." Marv is my favorite character. "... it's pretty damn weird to eat people." Josh Harnett was a hitman. The guy you said his voice sounds familiar is Clive Owen who is the lead in "Children of Men" (2006) [No. 4 at Popcorn Requests] which I hope you react to. You recognized Michael Clarke Duncan as being in The Green Mile -- he was also in the Wahlberg "Planet of the Apes" (2001). For a moment, I thought you may have recognized Mike Gomez as George Luz from Band of Brothers but that was a long time ago you saw BoB and you've seen so many (hundreds) of movies/series. "The Pits," officially the Santa Yolanda Tar Pits, are outside Basin City. Inspired by the real-life Tar Pits in Los Angeles. Initially, Basin City tried to capitalize on them as a tourist attraction w/dinosaur statues, but a fatal incident led to their closure. Criminals then used The Pits as a dumping ground for bodies.

Chris Thom

Never know what she'll enjoy. Very true. Personally think the best reactions are ones that are maybe a novel movie-going experience for her, but that she's also glued to and invested in. Can't really know what those are for sure until they're sampled. Now I'm really curious for Batman v Superman. Another Frank Miller inspired thing.

Chris Thom

Are you at the Vegas thing Gray?

Richard Maurer

Democracy doesn’t work, except when it does.

Richard Maurer

I do not agree with that at all, I’m glad she watched it.

Gray

Nah I'm in the UK about to go to work sadly, was just wondering if anyone was. I saw just now on her twitter account she's posted some pictures from the convention

JPDotCom23

To each his or her own

Richard Maurer

Just a thought - If you make a negative comment about a film on a reaction to that film, don’t be surprised if you get a lot of disagreeing comments. I mean the comments section is bound to be full of fans of that film, who are going to voice their disagreement.

Clay F

I sympathesize with you having PTSD from GoT, which fortunately I don't. I will be watching her reaction to each and every episode of GoT.

Just Plain Bob

Clay, about Cassie’s realization that Elijah Wood played Kevin, I was a little surprised that it took her a couple of scenes to realize it. This isn’t the first time that’s happened, either. She frequently seems to not recognize familiar faces in film. I wonder if she’s got a mild case of face blindness. As I understand it, it’s kinda like being a little color blind. Only, instead of having difficulty differentiating colors, the person has difficulty recognizing faces. At any rate, I hope that his role in this film didn’t damage her opinion of Wood too much. I used to attend Fantastic Fest in Austin every year and he was there all the time. No pretensions, no entourage; he was just another guest. He mingled with everyone else and seemed like a really nice guy. If you didn’t recognize him from films, you’d never guess he was famous. He’s also a HUGE geek, loving genre films and all other things geek. Like a smaller Henry Cavill, without the muscles.

Just Plain Bob

Chris, I’m not a fan of “Batman v Superman”, but I do think a Cassie reaction would be very interesting.

Clarence Newman

Your principle is spot on, Cole, but on this one it might also be about empathy towards Cassie. She clearly didn't like the film, so instead of contradicting her by boosting the positives, folks are maybe just backing up her conclusions with a general tone of "yeah, we knew." If it was on a film she really liked, that would be negative. But this may actually be a positive negative. What say you?

Cole Jennett

Did I get blocked by someone named Matt too?😂 I can’t see there comments. To my knowledge I’m only blocked by Zachary K, and the red flag guy. Badge of honor with them, lol

Just Plain Bob

Definitely true. I disagree with you about not making negative remarks about films that Cassie reacts to. But I also know that, if do so, I can expect some backlash. And that’s fine, as long as the attacks don’t become personal.

Clay F

Good comments in your reply. I was thinking that her slow response to recognizing Elijah Wood was him being in a completely different setting (and the dark shades). I am glad to hear that Elijah Wood is a good guy. My son lives in Austin. I wonder if he has been to Fantastic Fest.

Cole Jennett

It was an in general comment, not specifically meant for this movie only. It happens all the time, this just happened to be the time I chose to voice it.

Milton Reduxed

@ Gray, I just didn't want anyone to feel attacked. I know Cassie doesn't want a toxic comment section

Richard Maurer

JP Bob - That’s good to know. I’ve heard pretty much the same about Sean Aston, which considering that both his parents were famous actors in their day, is extra cool.

Just Plain Bob

To this day, “Addams Family” is my favorite sitcom of all time. Admittedly, I’m not a fan of sitcoms, so that’s not saying much. But I adored “Addams Family” as a child and still do. The on air chemistry between John Astin and the gorgeous Carolyn Jones was a big part of that.

Milton Reduxed

@ Chris, I think expectation is part of it. You need to be in the right mood to enjoy any movie. Ordinarily I advocate going in as blind as possible, but if Cassie went in expecting a highly-stylized comic-book anthology she might have enjoyed it more, instead of expecting a conventional narrative and then feeling confused

Richard Maurer

Cole - I can’t see them either. They may have taken their posts down, or had it taken down depending what they wrote. There have been quite a few disappearing posts lately. Even a whole thread that disappeared the other day, I assume because of somewhat negative words were used to describe other patrons.

Clay F

I know that all too well. I make negative comments about movies she reacts to in the comments section. Moreover, I regularly recommend to not watch the sequels to the movie (which often at least a few in the comments are recommending to watch the sequels). I generally comment on every movie she reacts to if I watched the reaction -- I give my genuine thoughts, both negative and positive. For movies I truly dislike, I truthfully look for and comment on aspects I do like. I was trained intensely early in my engineering career 35 years ago to be a good customer you must give detailed feedback (both positive and negative) on the product. Being silent is not being a good customer.

Phil Stubblefield

Yeah, I'm still pretty shocked that she's chosen to watch GoT. I can't imagine 2021 Cassie ever making that choice! 🫨

Cole Jennett

Yes Clay, but there’s also no need to beat a dead horse (looking at you Batman v Superman😂). You make your point many, many times over and I usually agree with you so I can’t imagine if I was on the other side of it the majority of the time.

Cole Jennett

Yeah, that’s probably more likely

Clay F

Cole I appreciate your sentiment (and I do agree with you majority of the time), but there is so much noise that it takes being repetitive to some extent to get through, especially on movies she is considering watching. I doubt that she has even noticed my comments on Batman v Superman.

Just Plain Bob

He made a somewhat derisive post to the effect that I ought to try a little introspection and not be so verbose. I suspect he took the comment down when people liked the post. Whatever. I am verbose. That’s not a revelation to me. I use twenty words when five would suffice - my editor in my old job made it clear this is an area I could improve and I never have. This post being an example.

Richard Maurer

Clay - I feel once the movies been reacted to you’re just beating a dead horse. I have no problem with trashing movies I consider bad - before they’re reacted to. But once it’s been decided, and watched, what’s the point other than irritate the fans of movie. I know when it’s a film I enjoy and I go to comments and see someone trashing it, I mostly just think ‘you can’t let it go, can you?’. Edit: didn’t see Cole’s post till after I made mine. We both used the phrase ‘beating a dead horse’ - obviously great minds think alike.

Clay F

As a kid, I liked The Addams Family series (and The Munsters series).

My_Cousin_Mose

I'm pro leaving a negative comment about a movie you thought sucked but I agree with this comment. It's just the comments that cry about Cassie needing therapy and how horrible of people to recommend such a movie that annoy me.

Just Plain Bob

Clay, Fantastic Fest is awesome for fans of genre cinema. Eight days of pure film heaven, running from 11 am to midnight every day. The movie selection is eclectic, with lots of foreign films, documentaries, undiscovered gems from years past (“Miami Connection” being the most “famous” example), and lots and lots of sci-fi and horror films. They load the lobby with new and old video games and it’s held at the Alamo Drafthouse, so you can order and eat breakfast, lunch and supper right at your seat (and have an adult beverage or two). It’s the perfect festival at the perfect venue and you’re surrounded by people that LOVE film.

Richard Maurer

Yeah I always preferred the Addams Family to the Munsters. The Munsters were always trying to conform to “normal” society, while the Addams didn’t care what other people thought. When I was a kid I wanted to go live with the Addams, or at least stay with them for a while. The Munsters had a better pet though. A lion is cool but a dragon is way cooler.

Just Plain Bob

Richard, I am one that will voice my opinion about a movie I don’t like. But, in my defense, I generally only do it once - either during the poll or, if I missed it for some reason, as a comment to the full reaction. Not both. And I never engage in that “this will irreparably harm Cassie” nonsense.

Cole Jennett

I mean, I’m always hopeful she will see comments I leave, but my best guess is that she just skims the comments, and the ones she’s most likely to respond to tend to be positive towards what she just watched, or a quick question. Long speeches are probably the least likely to be read, imo anyways.

Cole Jennett

I think I’ve long been considered to be one of her white nights by the folks in here who even register my existence on the platform, but I was fully in favour of Game of Thrones not being too much for her to handle. I think I have a pretty good grasp of what she will like and what she won’t (and I may state my opinion on that), but Cassie has come a long way, and I don’t think a lot of people less familiar with her have registered that yet. Carly on the other hand…😂

Clay F

I don't think it's beating a dead horse to make one post on a movie reaction that includes negative feedback on the movie. Patron feedback on a movie after the movie has been reacted to is useful. For example, maybe will lessen the chance of getting a reaction to that particular type of movie or to another movie in that franchise. There are other reasons. I do try to be sensitive and reasoned, and give positive thoughts on any movie I comment on. While I appreciate sensitivies and do love reactions to movies that she likes, I never (absolutely never) give negative feedback to 'protect' Cassie. I am never the superficial white knight in shining armor w/delusions of riding in to guard her -- that is insulting to her -- she is an intelligent adult -- and has said she wants to expand her horizon -- and has indicated we should want movies that we like and think would make for good reaction. I think it good that she now has the Sin City reaction on her reactor belt -- helps her grow as a reactor.

Richard Maurer

Cole -Yeah I’d never recommend the same films for Carly, especially horror films. If it’s too scary for a 6 yr old, it’s too scary for Carly is my motto. ;-)

Richard Maurer

JP Bob - for me it’s open season till the films been reacted to, I comment ten, twenty times how bad I think the film is, after it’s been reacted to, I don’t see the point.

Clay F

Cole, good comments. I don't view you as a white knight (after all, like you said, you are a proponent of GoT). Agree that she has evolved (and maybe wasn't even quite as sensitive to adult issues pre-channel), and that maybe many don't recognize that. You may be like me in the sense that I like her reactions to movies she likes. That could be No. 1 for you. That's always at least a No. 2 or No. 3 consideration to me when I vote. I love her reaction to Dirty Dancing (which was not a movie I paid attention to before but now like ok) -- that reaction one on my favorite reactions -- her face is lit up the entire reaction.

Richard Maurer

Just to be clear, my decision to no longer comment negatively on films in that film’s reaction comments is a personal decision and I don’t look down upon anyone who continues to do so. I gave my reasons why I won’t do so but if you disagree that’s okay by me, you do you.

Cole Jennett

I never thought I would like Dirty Dancing but I also never gave it chance. It was one of her best, imo. I don’t vote ever for movies I don’t think she will like. I don’t expect everyone to do the same, but I always will.

Clay F

I think she will like GoT but the verdict is still out. There may be much negative to her that she doesn't like but the positives of great TV will win out. Cole - you seem less about protection but more about wanting to give her movies she likes.

Richard Maurer

I used write mostly short posts, believe it or not, rarely more than four sentences. Lately though, I’d be out of line accusing anyone of being verbose. Except for Clarence, of course.

Richard Rolen

This film has a very particular "flavor" and doesn't really fit well into any single genre. I like it a lot, yet I don't feel particularly compelled to rewatch it very much. I own it, but it mostly sits there on the shelf. Anyway, the film will ALWAYS tend to provoke a very strong reaction, whether it's positive or negative... It's just too striking in it's imagery and certain aspects of it's storyline to do otherwise. I figure you just have to understand that liking or disliking this film is just going to boil down to personal taste and is not really a question of the viewer's sophistication level. To each their own.

Cole Jennett

I’d say you have me pegged correctly. I’m always hopeful she will find a new favourite. There’s not many left that I believe have the potential, but I still have a personal request list of about 80. Some on there are movies I don’t think she will love, but like and appreciate, ie, Sleepers, and Donnie Brasco. I was also a big advocate for A Time to Kill which I knew would be tough on her, but also knew she would leave thinking it was a great movie.

Richard Maurer

If Cassie ever says she thinks a film is better than LotR, it will hurt me deeply. Otherwise I don’t care if she likes the films I do. If she does like a film I like that’s great, but if she doesn’t it won’t change my opinion of the film.

Cole Jennett

I’d imagine that’s why she doesn’t like to do tier lists. You’re always going to upset someone. Agree to disagree, but I don’t think she considers LOTR to be her favourite film. Trilogy possibly and definitely in her S tier.

Richard Maurer

Cole - I heard her say LotR was her favorite movie (she’s reacted to, but that part doesn’t count). I’ve never heard her say otherwise, therefore it’s her favorite. (Don’t burst my bubble)

Clarence Newman

To restore Cassie's faith in Bruce Willis movies, she should try Blind Date (1987). A light comedy where the poor fella gets the runaround from nutty-as-a-fruitcake Kim Batswinger.

Joe J

"When will people learn". Learn what? People vote for what they like. Most polls don't go my way..so was happy Sin City won.

Cole Jennett

I will leave you to your delusions, lol. Though you could totally be right. I’ve heard others too, but I’m sure it would be her top epic

Joe R

How about The Whole Nine Yards?

Joe J

Yes, Sin City is a "guy" movie. So is 300 and Fury Road, and Cassie liked both those films.

Joe J

For something a tad different, Last Man Standing is excellent.

Yaisu

I read it. Bob had a good point.

Joe J

Two Joe's can't be wrong, lol.

phillip giroux

Gotta say, comments on this channel seem to be getting more toxic with every new upload.

Stick Figure Studios

I think there are a lot of other much better movies that could restore her faith in Bruce Willis.

Just Plain Bob

“Blind Date”? Really? First, “Cannonball Run”, now this. How many bad suggestions can you make, Clarence? Cause it’s starting to feel deliberate.

Just Plain Bob

Joe J, I’d LOVE to see a “Last Man Standing” reaction, but she should really do “Yojimbo” and “A Fistful of Dollars” first. When it comes to remakes, I really believe the films should be watched/appreciated in order. Each iteration informs the next.

Just Plain Bob

Joe R, Cassie said she’d seen “Whole Nine Yards” before the channel.

Joe J

I like Cannonball Run, funny movie.

Stick Figure Studios

I don't think anyone else as mentioned this yet, but to answer your question you asked in the intro about what neo-noir is: "Noir" Is the French word for "black" and it was a term attached to a certain kind of movie that got made a lot after World War II, when people had a much darker and more cynical view of the world. It's a subgenre known for it s bleak, minimalist aesthetic, for its stylish (asually black and white) camerawork, for its morally compromised characters and for its seedier subject matter (and yes, a lot of private eye mysteries do fit into that genre). It's a kind of heightened reality hugely inspired by the pulp crime magazines of the time and of the nightmarish German expressionist movement in film. Some of the greatest movies ever made are film noir: THE BIG SLEEP, LAURA, DOUBLE INDEMNITY, TOUCH OF EVIL, GUN CRAZY, THE KILLERS, OUT OF THE PAST and THE MALTESE FALCON to name just a few. "Neo" means new, so "neo- noir" refers to movies that could be categorized as film noir but that are "newer" or more "recent" or at the very least were not made in the decades immediately following WWII (The '40s and '50s). They are films made in the '70s '80s '90s and 2000s. There is some debate as to whether or not they really qualify as "noir' because even though they might use many of the tropes of the genre (the male antihero, the tough "dames," the narration, etc), some people argue that they are mere imitation and that noir can really only exist in a particular historical era. Nonetheless, some of the greatest movies ever made are also neo-noir (CHINATOWN, BODY HEAT, BRICK, THE LONG GOODBYE, etc) and indeed you even watched a few on the channel: KISS KISS BANG BANG, CAPE FEAR, LA CONFIDENTIAL, SHUTTER ISLAND, PULP FICTION and even BLADE RUNNER can be considered a kind of neo-noir (or "future noir" to borrow the title from the book by Paul M. Sammonn on the making/legacy of the film). Hope that helps. :-)

Joe J

Curious how Cassie would rank Sin City up against other unpleasantries like Batman 89, Robocop, Highlander, and Howard the Duck. 😂

inpham0us

First off, I have to say Sin City is one favorite movies and one my favorite comic series. And I love that Cassie reacted to it candidly from her perspective. It was understandable (to me) why she was so confused from the beginning. If somebody had told her this was a comic book movie akin to Marvel it probably would've been less confusing. Some characters were just born with greater strength, agility, toughness but no, it's never explicitly explained why. The audience is just expected to roll with it. This style of comic/movie is not for everyone and if I had to guess if Cassie would like this movie or not, I would say probably not. But there are times where she unexpectedly will like something out of her comfort zone and that's the beauty of it! - Josh Hartnett's character is a hitman. He begins the movie killing his mark on the balcony and ends the movie sent to fulfill his contract in the elevator with Alexis Bledel's character for selling out Oldtown. - The dinosaurs were present at a touristy attraction kind of like the La Brea Tarpits.

Gray

Well I only saw her check the time left once in this wereas howard the duck was probably double figures 😅

Joe J

For me the Duck is just silly...but silly beats gross I would guess, lol.

Wesley White

Well, that was fun lol! Without to much of myself like I already said in my first comment, I commend you for watching this movie all the way through Cassie, because I knew this was not going to be for you, though I got a guilty pleasure seeing you all desensitized at it's visuals and violence LOL🤣 Hands down, favorite segment is Bruce Willis' story ark! Just so you're not to confused Cassie, you are correct that each story segment is connected, however each one doesn't exactly have anything to do with one another! This kind of genre of film making is called an "Anthology" where a collection of short stories are all in the same universe, but completely seperate in their own timeline, simply put lol! If you want answers and closures, then I'd say watch the sequel "Sin City - A Dame to Kill For" it's just as gritty as this one, but no where near as good as this one in my opinion and I'm sure everyone here can agree to that lol! Because in the sequel which in some ways serves as a prequel as well, shows what Dwight meant when he said "with a new face", you get to see what happened to him in the sequel and what he meant by that! A lot of the same actors return to reprise their roles! And to be honest it was because of this movie, I then bought the graphic novel itself which this was based on, and almost shot for shot of this movie looks like it came right out of the pages, art style and everything! One thing impresses me is the make up effects, especially for Benicio Del Toro who plays Jackie boy, that chin of his is fake, you wouldn't be able to recognize him with that big chin lol! Don't worry Cass, I forgive you if you didn't like this movie much, I knew this wasn't for you, heck I didn't even vote for it in the poll, but I actually did enjoy your reaction to it, and this movie still remains one of my favorites! Can't help it sometimes, guns blazing, mindless violence, explosions and seeing bad guys getting their just desserts, I love it, a good stress releiver for me lol! Oh and one other thing, that part when you were confused about the Dinosaurs and the Tar Pits, it's copying the infamous La Brea Tar Pits out here in California which is the sight of where many fossels of prehistoric animals have been discovered, just thought I'd clear that part up for you lol! Still, great reaction Cassie, I enjoyed it! Love and support, you (and Carly) are the best, hope you're doing well and God bless y'all and the family🥰😇🙏🤗😁😉✌🌹

Mojo One Thousand

She watched "Game of Thrones" first due to scheduling/logistics. That's why there was a comment "I have seen so many breasts this week", and why it gave me a chuckle.

Mojo One Thousand

The cast is a reason to give "Dick Tracy" a go. So many high profile actors in interesting costumes, giving interesting performances.

Brian's Dog

I feel like the exaggerated characters in Dick Tracy must have contributed to this. Maybe not for the comic, but as they were being screen adapted from Frank Miller's wild art style.

Gray

Haha yeah same Mojo, but on the live she said she had watched Sin City first and GoT was to be watched. My guess is she is trying to avoid GoT chat and the possibility of spoilers. Probably won't see her on live chat for GoT premiere for that reason would be impossible to avoid them.

Stick Figure Studios

Well, to be fair, the cast of both of these movies is stacked, but I still think that DICK TRACY is the superior film.

Stick Figure Studios

I wouldn't be surprised if it did contribute to the comic because Warren Beatty's film came out in 1990 and Frank Miller's first SIN CITY story came out in 1991.

Stick Figure Studios

I would love to see her react to DEATH BECOMES HER at some point.

Stick Figure Studios

I'm not that big a fan myself of it, but I could see Cassie enjoying that film... certainly more than this one.

Richard Maurer

We’ve been told it’s alright to disagree in the comments as long as we don’t insult the person we’re replying to. I read through this comment section several times and haven’t seen any comments that were personal insults. I’ve seen a lot of people commenting on the movie, both for and against, but that’s about it.

Stick Figure Studios

I'd say it was mid-tier. There were better movies on the poll, but there were worse ones as well.

Farbod

Why do you guys keep doing this to Cassie? lol

Shreddy

Well, that's the fundamental problem with all movie reactions. Only fans of the movie would rewatch it. So, movie reactor kinda "has to" be overly positive about everything, to not upset anyone. Even if they didn't much care for it, they have to say the "quite enjoyed it" etc.

fastecp1

Yep, this was the reaction I expected. It reminds me a lot of when she watched Batman, except for being a little more confused. Now she needs to watch Dick Tracy (1990) with Warren Beatty, Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman, and Madonna. Does anyone think she would like the movie Deliverance? I just thought of it because of Beatty, not Warren Beatty, but Ned Beatty, AKA Lex Luthor. It has a 90% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Mike Lemon

Mods, I just made a history joke and recommended some DC movies, don't try blaming me for anything.

Richard Maurer

Shreddy- To be serious (as I wasn’t before) Cassie doesn’t really say she loves everything. As far LotR goes, she did a tier list once in a live chat (so she did literally rank the films she watched up to that point). LotR was s-tier, and she said it was her favorite (at that time). She has also made no attempt to hide her dislike for Howard the Duck, as well as other films. When you watch her reactions for a while you can generally tell her feelings for a film. She may want to “soften the blow” for the film’s fans but she doesn’t pretend like she loves a film either - Sin City being a case in point.

Mike Lemon

"Does anyone think she would like the movie Deliverance?" Doubtful.

Richard Maurer

I doubt she would have liked Taxi Driver either. But if Sin City wasn’t in the poll that was my second choice.

Mojo One Thousand

I think it was the PAF live where she changed things due to life admin and GoT was going to fit better into the available time, but the release is honouring the broadcasted schedule for the week.I could be wrong, but has been my understanding from what I was seen/read this week.

Richard Maurer

She REALLY didn’t like HtD. I think she liked aspects of Sin City. She clearly cared about Marv and Hartigan, at least a little. I don’t think she would’ve cared one bit if Howard got fried in the electric chair.

My_Cousin_Mose

@Bob I wouldn't be surprised if watching around 150 movies every year has some sort of "information overload" effects like not recognizing Frodo Baggins. And I have also heard a similar story about Elijah Wood from an old coworker.

Gray

Think were going round in circles I'm talking about the live YT chat from Thursday lol. Anyway GoT tommorow should be good, I'll save it for Monday when I'm off work.

Cole Jennett

Mojo, she was going to watch Game of Thrones before Sin City, but it didn’t happen. Sin City was watched first. Not sure what she watched prior this week for her to make that comment. Must have been off channel

Mojo One Thousand

I agree with both of your points Stick, however the context of the casts at the time of production is a bit different. "Dick Tracy" is a bit akin to the "Ocean 11" movies (both versions), where it is a group of well established acclaimed or well-known actors at the time of production (making it noteworthy), whereas "Sin City" is a mixed bag of a few established actors and those that were hot at the time, with the passage of time since the movie was made making them more noteworthy than at the time.

Joe J

Would Deliverance be on the TRICK poll or the TREAT poll? 😆

thansen

I do not think she would enjoy any part of Deliverance. Or Dick Tracy. Both fine films, though.

thansen

THE BIG SLEEP, LAURA, DOUBLE INDEMNITY, TOUCH OF EVIL, GUN CRAZY, THE KILLERS, OUT OF THE PAST, THE MALTESE FALCON, CHINATOWN, BODY HEAT, BRICK, THE LONG GOODBYE What a list of films! I have seen all those films and some are my all time favorites. Not a lot of reactions to those films, though. A shame because I would much rather watch any of those over Sin City.

Clay F

Taxi Driver was my 2nd choice. I hope we get a reaction one day. +1 for Deliverance.

Cole Jennett

As discussed earlier, I don’t expect Cassie would like either of them at all, so they will never have my vote. My vote doesn’t count for any more than anyone else’s so my abstaining won’t much matter. They are bound to happen eventually

Richard Maurer

Joe - Neither. Deliverance is not a horror movie, it’s listed as a adventure/thriller.

Astraeos

I feel like such a degenerate in this channel lol. I saw this movie as a 15 year old with my High School girlfriend and her parents in theaters. Just such different sensibilities and experiences in our lives. Also, this channel needs to see Chinatown, if you want to see quintessential Film Noir. Actually quite depressing to see just how little that movie's name has been thrown around in these parts over the years.

Astraeos

I think she'd like Southern Comfort more, less horror/psychological elements, and just more of an action flick .

Rick Williams

Cassie your reaction to this movie is what I figured it would be. And weird is a good way to describe the movie. The story came from graphic novels. So, they wanted to shoot the movie like a graphic novel. Yes, it was very graphic and harsh. I like in the beginning of the movie when you said you have seen a lot of boobs this week. Sounds like a good week to me. It was an entertaining reaction. Hopefully the next movie will be a little easier on you.

K, Zachary

After watching this with Cassie. The movie is complete bananas. So here is a better story a good story. Cassie and Carly will like this one. This one happened last night. So gf gets home from work she sits down on the couch next to me and asks if I ever heard the term Generosity of Spirit. Yeah I heard it on Dexter but don't know what it means exactly she tells me to look it up here is what Google AI said it was: Generosity of spirit refers to a disposition or attitude of kindness, compassion, and willingness to share with others without expecting anything in return. It involves giving freely of one's time, resources, or emotional support, and celebrating the successes of others without envy. This includes empathy, understanding, and a willingness to see the best in others. She asks who the first people come to mind are. Is this a trick question? Ok your heroes and me. Actually after you and Sharon Tate the first names that come to mind are, Cassie and Carly from PIB. She said after Sharon Tate and Caitlin Clark, Cassie and Carly is immediately who she thought of as well. The meaning kind of fits Cassie and Carly to a tee doesn't it? Yeah You don't see many people online who think like they do I replied.

Shad Kanyak

This movie had fallen so far off my radar I wasn't really looking forward to it. I think maybe the lackluster sequel had to do with that. Despite the reaction, I'm glad to have seen it again. I forgot how unique and gorgeous this movie was.

Richard Rolen

Ned Beatty wasn't Lex Luthor, he was "Otis". Gene Hackman was LL.

pat on

been trying to sync up for hours with different versions of the movie can't get it

Chris Thom

Chinatown was on a poll this year. I forget how well it did. Classic noir.

Chris Thom

Had no idea there was a sequel.

Just Plain Bob

There was, and lackluster describes it perfectly.

Chris Thom

The Black Dahlia was an interesting newer noir film. Think that counts. By Brian DePalma.

Stick Figure Studios

@Chris: It definitely counts. I just didn't mention it because I don't think it was very good (and I'm normally a huge Brian DePalma fan).

Shad Kanyak

Sin City: A Dame to Kill For from 2014. It wasn’t good. Clive Owen didn’t return, so he was replaced by Josh Brolin. A majority of the rest of the cast did return.

Chris Thom

Stick does a noir need to include a detective and police work to be considered one?

Stick Figure Studios

@thansen: I doubt she would like DELIVERANCE, but I could see her enjoying DICK TRACY.

Stick Figure Studios

Not necessarily, no. Some of the best film noir movies of all time don't include a detective character or feature the police (except maybe just getting mentioned in the dialogue): some examples are DOUBLE INDEMNITY, NIGHTMARE ALLEY and ACE IN THE HOLE. They do usually involve some kind of crime though.

Milton Reduxed

I put Mean Creek on PaF last month, which is like the kids version of Deliverance and comfortably within Cassie's wheelhouse

ArsTropica

for those trying to sync up your dvd copy with Cassie's streaming version, there is a 1 min deletion in the streaming version around 57:37 of the reaction video - the part where benicio's character attacks brittany murphy - noticed it when I tried watching another reaction to this movie. not sure if it's accidental or censorship, given all the other graphic stuff in the movie.

ArsTropica

nothing wrong with the acting performances in the sequel, but style-heavy productions like this one should be one and done. we're not watching it for its deep content.

ArsTropica

I wouldn't necessarily term it a guy movie as much as a matter of taste - penny from pennyiswatching absolutely loved this film, but hated watchmen because she can't stand on-screen male nudity.

Milton Reduxed

Thanks for this, it's at about 51 minutes on this copy

Clay F

In a January poll this year, Chinatown tied for last place with Patton (1970) out of 8 choices. See results below. She reacted to the top two: Risky Business and Willow. Patton (1970) won a more recent poll (a true events poll) and thus she then reacted to Patton (1970). Risky Business (1983) - 21% Willow (1988) - 20% Wind River (2017) - 12% Mad Max (1979) - 11% American Graffiti (1973) - 10% Payback (1999) - 10% Patton (1970) - 8% Chinatown (1974) - 8%

Clay F

During a bare breasted shot in Sin City, you said you saw a lot of boobs this week -- I assumed you were also talking about GoT first two episodes.

Clay F

Deliverance would be fine. She likes Burt Reynolds. When reacting to Big Fish, she didn't realize the banjo boy as a cameo.

Richard Maurer

Clay - Of the 3 films you mentioned that were reacted to on YouTube: Risky Business has 75k views in 6 months Willow has 116k views in 3 months. Patton has 106k views in 1 month. While none of them are setting records, Patton did surprisingly well for a 70’s movie, compared to the usually dominating 80’s movies.

Shawn Kildal

My theory on why this is. Someone has a movie that they love and has longed for it to be reacted to. By some unexpected miracle, it's FINALLY in a poll - but it goes up against a movie that is "dark, gritty and intense" which perhaps could be assumed as almost a sure-fire formula to win just about any PIB poll, regardless if that movie is good or bad, and then he or she lashes out in a moment of frustration feeling the movie has missed its only real chance and has forever lost it's one true opportunity to get reacted to. And then that resentment feeling gets enhanced if Cassie didn't care for the other movie that won and feel it was a wasted reaction and thinks of what could have been. Just my theory, I could be wrong. I did give it some thought though. Other reasons it could be late night and it's the alcohol talking or just having a bad day. BTW, not reflecting on Sin City. I haven't seen it in quite a while but remember enjoying most of it.

Canadianant

I don't think your wrong Shawn.

Canadianant

LThis one was tough. I saw this at release and felt mixed about it at the time. The stylized noir graphic novel come to life visuals are certainly impressive but much like Cassie it seems I found it a tough watch and reaction. At times it feels like there's really no one to root for in this. Sex and violence simply for there own sake. I felt like I needed a shower after this to clean the grime off. Maybe that was the point? The Bruce Willis and Jessica alba story line is as close as we get but the romance angle ends up being tough to stomach. After all,even Cassie, a lover of all things romance even found it difficult to cheer that one on. That having been said if Cassie wanted to expand her horizons , this is certainly a unique viewing experience. In some ways this is similar to the watchmen. Graphic novel comes to life. But in the case of the watchmen yes there's also violence and flawed characters but I think there's also a few that we can empathize with. I'm truly curious whether she would like that one or not I know it's kind of a divisive movie. That having been said you can count me as one of the folks who is at times befuddled as to what Cassie likes and what she doesn't. There's no rhyme or reason it seems at some point. I m not complaining, everyone has their own tastes and sometimes things just don't give with a person. I never would have thought she would have liked something like 300 or kill Bill but at the same time I thought she would have liked the fifth element and she didn't really care for it. In that same spirit, I do hope we manage to get a taxi driver reaction at some point and midnight run.

Clarence Newman

JP Bob, Stick. Re your contention that there are far better Bruce Willis films than Blind Date….when you’re right, you’re right. I just see it as a light bit of cleansing fluff amid all the recent dark stuff and gore.

Milton Reduxed

Watching Cassie's reaction reminds one how hardcore this movie is. Hollywood wouldn't make anything like this today, now full of careerists but a lack of artists with passion & cojones. And say what you want about Weinstein, he backed people like Tarantino, Kevin Smith, and Robert Rodriguez to make exciting pictures

Grad

I never really liked/bought the conclusion to Hartigan's arc. Was it really necessary? Nancy has been safe for the last eight years. The only reason they found her was because they were able to trick Hartigan. And if Roark is really that powerful, I don’t think the movie did a very good job showing it. He couldn't even protect his son. But I get it from a story perspective.

Richard Maurer

The stories in Sin City don’t really make much sense, not in real world logic anyway. But like everything else in this movie it’s more about style than reality. The over the top energy of this film owes as much to the so-called exploitation films of the 60’s - 70’s as it does to film noir of the 40’s - 50’s.

Joe J

+1 for boobs 😉

Clay F

Chinatown (1974) [RT 98%] and American Graffiti (1973) [RT 95%] are both AFI Top 100 films, finishing in the bottom half of the poll. This year, I did my first full watch of Willow and thus have no nostalgia. Willow [RT 53%] seemed like a kids' movie to me, but Val Kilmer salvaged it for me to be bearable. I do have nostalgia for Risky Business [RT 93%] but she didn't really seem to like it. I was 20 when Risky Business was released in 1983 - 10th highest grossing movie that year against a relatively small budget. I like Patton [RT 92%] ok -- watched it a couple of times as a kid and young adult, and then with her reaction. I saw Wind River (2017) [RT 87%] in the theater and liked it. I wasn't completely surprised by Patton (1970) YT performance -- it's popular enough war movie among a sizable core base to break the chains of being a 1970 movie. Yet, I think the difference in income for say 75k views vs 150k views (for 3 movies per week) is small compared to income from Patreon paid membership. When you start talking 200k-300k or more views, then the discussion is more worthy, both in income and exposure for the channel. But I am no expert.

Joe J

So, next week more GoT, and I think A.I. Artificial Intelligence. 3rd reaction maybe is To Catch a Thief.

Clarence Newman

She'll never see more boobs than she saw in Total Recall. Not on the same woman anyway.

Richard Maurer

Income for YouTube videos isn’t a primary concern for reactors, at least for the most popular, more established ones. Viewer engagement , especially in the first 24 hours of release, is more important as it determines their place in the YT algorithm, which leads to their video being in the recommended videos tab more prominently. Which hopefully brings more people to join their Patreon.

Tyler Hale

Arguably the most violent film ever made. That and Marv is one of the best characters ever.

Silver Machine

That’s true. Some people collect garbage. I throw it away.

Chris Thom

"Who dudn't like t*ts?"--Howard Hughes (The Aviator)

Chris Thom

Haven't seen Dick Tracy since the week it came out in theaters. Was five years old. That would be a trip to see again. I remember nothing about it except for the intense make up jobs and prosthetics.

Clay F

The PAF winner "The Human Comedy" (1943) at some point this month. I don't remember liking A.I. that well but keeping an open mind. Also keeping an open mind about To Catch a Thief (on my watchlist and has the striking Grace Kelly). What's nice is every week will be GoT. Even if the content in the 2 other reaction slots are blah for me, I have GoT to deliver for me week in and week out for 8 months.

Clay F

+1 for the Marv character.

Chris Thom

It's very cartoonish violence though. Which makes it ok, I guess?

Just Plain Bob

Very much looking forward to “To Catch A Thief.” First, you can never go wrong with Hitchcock (except for “Under Capricorn”, that was terrible). Second, you can never go wrong with Cary Grant or Grace Kelly (still the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen). Put them together and you move got a must-see movie.

Grad

True Richard. It fits the style.

David

I don't know why folks would vote this movie for this channel.

Clarence Newman

Always look on the bright side, folks. This film does give us the rare opportunity to inform Cassie that she can lighten things up considerably in the movie room by watching the following, much tamer fare: Deliverance (1972) Scarface (1983) Rambo 2 (1985) The Fly (1987) The Hitcher (1987) Reservoir Dogs (1992) Casino (1995)

Chris Thom

Legit think she might like Casino. Not sure about the rest.

Clarence Newman

Alternatively, if she's after a more frolicy ambience: Blue Hawaii (1962) - Elv the Pelv The Great Race (1965) - Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon ride again Freebie and the Bean (1974) - The best buddy cop movie ever, with James Caan and Alan Arkin in fine form. Every Which Way But Loose (1978) - Clint and Clyde. I know it's already on her August schedule but I include it for the completionists. Perfect (1985) - You remember Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween? She all growed up now and teaching aerobics. Also John Travolta, but frankly, who cares? City Slickers (1991) - How did you heinously miss this? Vicky Christina Barcelona (2008) - It's as if Cassie wrote it.

Clarence Newman

My wife doesn't like it because of the baseball.

Clarence Newman

Cassie developed a considerable girly-crush on Grace when she watched Rear Window.

Richard Maurer

Maybe, but considering a significant number of patrons tend to go for movies she would like in the polls it makes sense she would like most of them.

Ian Tonge

I'm not surprised Cassie didn't like it, but you never know and it was worth a shot. She still managed put out an entertaining reaction, and I appreciate the effort. This movie is 100% style over substance, but my goodness what a style it is. Of course if the style isn't your cup of tea, there's not really much else about the movie to like. The Spirit (2008) is a more family friendly take on the same aesthetic, it's generally not well regarded but I think it's pretty good.

Clay F

Glad to see you connected with VCB (the only movie on your list less than 34 years old). I think she would appreciate the narration as a guide.

Clay F

Good list. +1 for: -Deliverance (1972) -Scarface (1983) -The Fly (1987) -The Hitcher (1987) -Reservoir Dogs (1992) -Casino (1995) As Richard said, I think Rambo 2 (1985) is an unecessary sequel, but to each their own.

Clay F

To help her grow as a reactor, and because we like the reaction.

The Writer Black

Oof, Deliverance might be her cup of tea either, same with Scarface. Although man I would LOVE to see her reaction to Casino.

The Writer Black

Had a feeling from the start that this wouldn't be her cup of tea. Sorry we did this to you Cassie, but hey it was entertaining at least.

David

Its not her type of movie. It doesn't take a genius to know she wouldn't like it. Grow as a reactor , What does that mean, fake liking a movie she didn't enjoy ? Why would you like watching someone view a movie she really dislikes? There are entire channels that do this exact type of movie.

Cole Jennett

It will do well for her on YouTube, so in the end it will be worth it for her

Clay F

Priest: ...ask yourself if that corpse of a slut is worth dying for. Marv: Worth dying for. [shoots priest] Marv: Worth killing for. [shoots priest again] Marv: Worth going to hell for. [shoots priest again] Marv: Amen.

Keith Jacobsen

You animals made Cassie watch Sin City? Fr, fr?

Clay F

She does make a striking appearance in Rear Window.

Clarence Newman

You’re too obsessed with the age of my films, Clay. I deal in timeless excellence.

Clarence Newman

Heads up for The Writer Black - this list is very tongue-in-cheek, the point being that this is one of those rare times that this list can be peddled as "lighter fare". My real suggestions are in the post above.

Clarence Newman

Rambo 2 seemed far from an unnecessary sequel when it came out. One of the most iconic films of the 1980s.

fastecp1

You are right. I knew that, but I wasn't thinking.

fastecp1

They are both great movies, but I have learned to be careful what I ask for. I had a girl last year do a reaction to Deliverance, and it totally destroyed her. I was thinking to myself, it's not much different than The Shawshank Redemption, you know what I'm talking about, but she was fine with that.

fastecp1

All great movies.

fastecp1

Every movie can't be a rom-com, and Sin City did win, and I don't think that was because we all thought she would hate it. And you never know for sure what anyone will like until they watch it. I remember when she couldn't handle violence, but she liked Kill Bill, so you never know.

Richard Maurer

I don’t vote for what Cassie wants to see, I vote for what I want to see her react to.

Chris Thom

Surprised City Slickers hasn't happened yet.

Mannygogou

I finally got to watch the reaction. These are separate stories basically loosely tied to the "Sin City" theme. Towards the end we see a sign... "Basin City" and that's how it got the name... no it's not Las Vegas, ah. And... the opening and ending bookend scenes... that guy looks like an assassin... and so therefore in the end "Rory" is getting what's coming to her. Also she gave a look that she knew... and said a quick goodbye to mom. "I love you Goldie" - thought Marv

Mannygogou

"Sometimes you gotta prove to your friends that you're worth a damn."

Clay F

Marv: “You can scream now if you want.”

Clay F

She said she wants to expand her horizon. She grows as a reactor means she watches movies of various types -- becomes more informed and aware. Some of her best reactions are to movies outside of her comfort zone. When I vote in a poll, whether or not a movie is her 'type' of movie, or whether or not I think she wll like the movie, are considerations for me but not my No. 1 consideration.

Mannygogou

wait a second... if we recall the timeline, Nancy up the stairs saying hello to Marv and finding beers. She looked okay. Was that a safehouse? That would have been after Hartigan's end. Soon thereafter Marv would take care of the Cardinal Rourke. I guess senator Rourke would still be left. But Nancy might have been alright. A happy ending all around 🥲 considering😊

LukeG84

Finally found the time to watch this one, and Cassie's reaction to it was exactly as I predicted. Sure, it has an all-star cast and unique visuals, but it's just too dark and weird a movie, and doesn't have a happy ending. Cassie was never going to enjoy this one. It's been 20 years since I watched this movie for the first and last time, and unlike some of the other movies Cassie has reacted to, this one I still don't like. The only thing that made this movie enjoyable was seeing Cassie's reactions to the over-the-top violence and gore. 🤣 Thank you for that! That being said, I would have rather seen Cassie smile and laugh while watching The Birdcage. I still don't understand why the majority of this community chose this rubbish over a movie Cassie is guaranteed to love. Here's hoping Cassie calls and audible and watches The Birdcage anyway. 🙏🏻

Chris Thom

This is now the single most-commented-on movie release in PIB Patreon history. Believe American Psycho is second. Go engagement.

Clay F

Marv: “The night is hot as hell. It's a lousy room in a lousy part of a lousy town. I'm staring at a goddess, she's telling me she wants me. I'm not going to waste one more second wondering how I've gotten so lucky. She smells like angels ought to smell. The perfect woman. The goddess. Goldie.”

Diiirk706

Another phenomenal movie that Cassie OF COURSE hated....................siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiggh.....

Thoko

I'm glad we have PIB historians like you keeping track of things like this. Not all heroes wear capes.

Thoko

Well, we would have voted for The Human Centipede instead if that were an option!

Patrick Switzer

I did watch it with you Cassie. I would not want to be there
