Pollception winner was surprisingly "Cassie Picks!" so here we go! See? Not all romcoms! I have an ongoing list of things I want to see and I picked some from there! Honestly have no clue what will win!

THIS IS POLL 1 of 2! Make Sure to check out and vote on BOTH! Multiple choice voting, poll ends in 48 hours and then the top 2 from each will go to a final poll!

Thank you, muah!

nick bell

Moonstruck is overdue. Watch with your sister. Beautiful movie

Dork Diggler

A future movie could be Phenomenon with John travolta.

Alex Gorell

A river runs through it ftw!

Jake McNulty

I'm going for "A River Runs Through It", "The Towering Inferno", "Moonstruck", "Donnie Brasco" and "Air".

Bill Maurer

Went with Towering Inferno, hard to pass up on Paul Newman and the original and only King of Cool, Steve McQueen

Chris Retzlaff

Theres only one of these choices....That Donnie Brasco movie....fuggetabowit

Henry Graham

Moonstruck is SO GOOD. Genuinely one the best romantic comedies ever.

Nick Ireland

It won't win so I think you should just pick Moonstruck as your Popcorn Pick of the Month. It's a classic.

Matt Rose

MOONSTRUCK all the way.

Somehiguy

The Towering Inferno is hot, I saw it when it came out at 12, it was the first "disaster" movie I'd seen.

James T

Lost in Translation is SO good! Profoundly affected me as a pretty lonely teenager. Really hoping it wins :)

Bill Maurer

Ok - still sticking with Towering Inferno

Above Average Dave

SInce this is Cassie's Pick Poll, perhaps we can pick the movies we think she'd like the mostest!? I mean, she does need a brain break/cleansing between GOT double-episodes. 🤣 Going hard for MOONSTRUCK. Just pure Cassie and Carly (and maybe another guest appearance by Cassie's Mom!?!)

Dan M

Didn’t hesitate for a second. Nine Months got my vote. But it doesn’t have a snowflakes chance in hell of winning. So I’ll have to keep submitting as my Pick a Flick choice and keep my fingers crossed. Great selection of movies, though, Cassie! Can’t wait to see what’s on Poll #2 that I’ll vote for and won’t win 😂.

Milton Reduxed

Cassie chose Game of Thrones, she can drop it if she likes. Donnie Brasco!

Steven Fordham

Moonstruck is the kind of romance you're going to enjoy, Cassie. It's not MY favorite film, but I think you'll really enjoy it.

Dan M

That’s my second pick. Such good movie. Cher’s best performance in a movie in my opinion.

Above Average Dave

Without AMERICAN GRAFFITI there is no DAZED AND CONFUSED. But I would offer another direct descendant featuring one of Kevin Costner's first roles: FANDANGO.

Gábor Árki

The Towering Inferno scarred me as a kid. I was 5 maybe, home, sick with some stomach bug, and my parents were watching this in the evening. I couldn't sleep and was allowed to stay with them. I know I didn't finish it and just stuck my face into a pillow, but I still vividly remember that day. I don't think I ever watched it since then, and to this day the possibility of an electrical fire worries me.

Clarence Newman

Two biggies on there for me, although Towering Inferno hasn't caught fire yet. Possibly the first epic disaster movie, so it would be a big one for the channel. Happy Lost In Translation is winning, though. Cassie and Carly would love that one.

Stefan Borglycke

Air is the underdog I root for, but we need Lost In Translation

Chris Retzlaff

Alot of love for Moonstruck...classic RomCom...its a top teir like When Harry Meets Sally for Italians

Dean Holt

Gone for Donnie Brasco, due to I’ve not seen it in a while so I need to rewatch it. And I also think it’s Johnny Depp’s best performance. The forget about it scene is awesome. Also completely off subject, seen a post that MailRats is 30 years old this year. That’s made me feel really old as I used to rent that loads of time from the video shop 😂. Not suggesting it gets watched as I’m not sure if Cassie will get or find Kevin Smith’s movies funny.

Clarence Newman

Brilliant film, though. You'd love it now, Gabor.

Clarence Newman

McQueen and Newman together. How can you lose?

Chris Retzlaff

Would you say its "lit"....or is it more "Thats Fire"

bknsty14

The “I am them” scene still gives me goosebumps to this day. I love that movie.

Ike

Not Gonna Win - but I am still voting “AIR”. Great cast, absolutely fantastic (real) story. Watch it after The Last Dance (both of these are Michael Jordan related). He’s the GOAT!

Clarence Newman

I too was profoundly affected by Scarlett Johansson.

Philip Gordon

I've always been a fan of a good gangster flick, so it's Donnie Brasco for me. And come on guys, let's vote for it so we can also get some of the gone too soon Michael Madsen RIP.

Clarence Newman

I'm voting for Towering Inferno, Lost In Translation, Towering Inferno, Towering Inferno and Lost In Translation. Vive la multiple voting.

Erik Locquiao

Don’t think it’ll win, but I really hope she gets to watch Patriot’s Day soon. That was an emotional roller coaster

Steven Perez

MOONSTRUCK, Cassie. MOONSTRUCK.

Dan M

Hang in there, Celeste! It’ll happen…right after School Ties gets a reaction 😊

Michael Bachman

A very tough choice between Lost in Translation and A River Run Through It. If Local Hero was included, I would have easily picked it.

Cole Jennett

I don’t think she’s big into (as Kevin Smith would put it) dick and fart jokes. Chasing Amy maybe?

J

You absolutely cannot watch "AIr" before watching "The Last Dance"

Clarence Newman

Great film, Philip, but I'm voting for the gone-too-sooner Steve McQueen in Towering Inferno. For Madsen, we need the cuddly chick flick that is Thelma & Louise. OR....the slightly-less-cuddly chick flick that is Reservoir Dogs.

Tara ✨💫

Donnie Brasco is based on a real person and Johnny Depp and Al Pacino are so good!

Above Average Dave

Oh, I don't think she'll drop it. Just like after an intense workout, it's always nice to unwind a bit.

Edgar Gonzalez

Donnie brasco is not only a classic, but also based on a true story. Johnny depp and Al Pacino give amazing performances. Arguably, I think "lefty" was al Pacino's greatest role, even more than Michael corleonene

Tara ✨💫

A River Runs Through It with young Brad Pitt who looks so much like young Robert Redford in this movie and RR is also the director

Joe J

I never cared for Murray in anything. To each his own I guess.

Jay Jay Reyes

9 months has the funniest delivery scene in history!!!!

Ted Whalen

Ike- 100% agree about Michael being the GOAT!

Joe J

No worries, it won't win or even place in the running.

Dean Holt

Cole, I think she would really like Jersey Girl, Maybe Chasing Amy as well (as you’ve said). Red State could be a good choice for October. But I really think she would hate Jay 😂😂

Just Plain Bob

Clarence, keep in mind that she was 17 when they filmed.

Clarence Newman

Heads on fire, half-gainers out of a 140th story window, blue eyes by the dozen, OJ crushing it as a security guard, Faye Dunaway's industrial strength boob tape. Legendary, I tell you.

Omar

It lets you vote for 1 or all, is that a bug?

Walter

I went for Moonstruck, because it's great. I have never been a fan of Lost In Translation or, frankly, any of Bill Murray's "dramatic" work. But that's just me.

Clarence Newman

Alas, yes. It is probably doomed to make Jen Murray's schedule next week. She takes all my favourite stuff.

Philip Gordon

I can't argue with that. I'd be happy with any of those.

Clarence Newman

Cassie can no more drop Game of Thrones than Peregrine Took could drop the Wizard's ball. It's got her by the earlobe.

MikeLL

I so much want The Towering Inferno or Moonstruck to win, but it will be something tame, and, *checks* ah, Lost in Translation it is. *sigh*

Mike A

I saw this movie with my parents when it came out, and those two looked so much alike that my mom couldn't believe that Brad was not actually Robert's son. She was like "No, it's gonna come out that he's his love-child, mark my words." LOL.

Gábor Árki

Movies from the 70s and 60s never win a poll mixed in with movies from more recent decades. Unless we are talking about the mega hits like The Godfather, Superman, etc.

Clarence Newman

Let me finish! I was profoundly affected by Scarlett Johansson in The Island. My original statement is kind of true still. She is sooooo sweet in Lost In Translation.

Cole Jennett

Not my first choice either, but neither were those, lol

Larry Darrell

+100 for Fandango (1985)… incredibly underrated.

Jack

Lost in Translation, it is time.

Cole Jennett

It worked fine for me to pick and choose.

MikeLL

You got The Judge on the other poll, at least. Happy for you for that.

Tara ✨💫

I think Cassie may have asked if they were related after watching a young RR movie

Cole Jennett

Jersey Girl for sure too. I kind of only think of the first 5 with Kevin Smith. Dogma, maybe….😬

MikeLL

I did. Didn't hurt me or anything.

Anthony Carlson

Well, as much as I want to see this film win despite not winning at the moment…. Air! Air! Air! Air! Air!

MikeLL

She'll have to PPOTM it. My gosh people, don't you all realize how much Cassie probably wants to see this film? Have a heart, ha ha.

Clarence Newman

Cassie! You've had a blonde moment! Where is Thelma & Louise on these two polls!

MikeLL

Michael Jordan was NEVER the GOAT, even in the ACC. David. Thompson.

Clarence Newman

Billing, Milton, billing! McQueen was "First", Newman was "Top". Try and keep up.

Ike

You’re not even going to enlighten me? Who’s the GOAT?

Paul Cox

*votes early* Oh wow, I didn't expect Moonstruck to be so popular with this crowd. *comes back half hour later* Yeah, ok

Matt Dellarosa

Last couple of polls don't have any real winners for me. I think you'll appreciate Lost in Translation for the most part. I voted for A River Runs Through it because it's the one you'll like the most. But not a favorite for me.

Dolores Bellini

Definitely Moonstruck. I have a soft spot for Towering Inferno, you'll appreciate the old time actors, people like Fred Astaire, Steve McQueen, Paul Newman, and William Holden.

Ike

“Lost in Translation” was indeed lost in translation for me. Maybe I was too old, too decrepit… maybe too get off-my-lawn, or too “tell-me-where-this-is-going” to enjoy it? Maybe I just need a second watch or 2nd pair of eyes to get it. If it wins, I’ll watch it again.

Chris Retzlaff

I thought the same way...watched it a second time.....like the old adage....Fool me once...Fool me twice...

J

My statement is more geared toward people born outside the US and after ~1990. If you don't have a decent knowledge of MJ's greatness, you won't understand the appropriate significance of "Air".

Milton Reduxed

It's got a great soundtrack but the 2 lead characters are smug a*holes

Milton Reduxed

The multiple-voting polls glitch for me also. If it's a poll on a smaller channel, with not many voters, one can actually manipulate the poll to fix the winner—I've done that a couple of times on another channel. Too difficult with hundreds of votes though

Variable38

I tried to watch it, twice, when it came out on home video and i fell asleep before the halfway point both times. I just remember long, boring shots of people "contemplating" while looking out windows

Richard Maurer

Don’t really care that much about any of these. I voted for Towering Inferno because I haven’t seen it a long time and I wonder if it holds up. But it won’t win anyway so, whatever.

Bill W

Ehhhh..I guess Donnie Brasco.

Ted Whalen

Mike- the ACC has a long history of great players. I am partial to the Univ of Maryland players- Len Elmore, Tom McMillian, John Lucas, Lenny Bias (my favorite)

Steve Holton

If someone claims "The Towering Inferno" does "hold up" is that a spoiler? Or if someone claims it "collapsed" in the third act would that be misleading? 😊

CJ Holden

My vote went to LOST IN TRANSLATION, because I feel like Cassie needs to see more artsy indie films that are more a mood than an actual story and this is a good entry point.

Ike

I watched this movie in Balad, Iraq on my laptop with borrowed Bose headphones, in an semi-air-conditioned 10 man tent, while sitting on an uncomfortable, olive drab canvas cot that was right next to a large [strategically acquired!] round walnut table that was hosting the loudest poker game in history, as I struggled to hear Bill Murray say something funny.

JPDotCom23

You’ve got A River Runs Through It on here, Donnie Brasco and Patriot’s Day, can only vote for one, damn it

Clarence Newman

Negative, Johansson. Multiple votes allowed.

Andrew Mote

Lost in Translation is so freaking good!

Richard Maurer

Steve - Spoilers consist of revealing plot details or actual scenes. Saying all or part of a movie or series is “bad” or “good” is different - it’s usually referred to as a review. But I get that you weren’t be serious.

Richard Maurer

Clarence - Towering Inferno is a literal slow burn.

Clarence Newman

But only for two hours of it’s running time. After that, it goes bat-shizzle.

Richard Maurer

Yeah, the 80’s is the cutoff point here, unfortunately.

Jens Kristensen

Even as much as I love "The Towering Inferno", - this was a easy pick for me... "Lost In Translation" all the way...

Richard Maurer

Yeah, this one’s pretty much over too. A comeback’s possible but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Clay F

Yeah, over in a good way for me.

Clay F

My top two choices are the top 2 in the current results of the poll. Nice when that happens. I've had Lost in Translation as my PAF before. Donnie Brasco is awesome. Johnny Depp, Al Pacino, Michael Madson (R.I.P.). Air (2023) is my 3rd choice but doesn't stand a chance.

Richard Maurer

Well I’m glad somebody is happy. Both polls were kind of Meh for me.

David R

Towering Inferno or Moonstruck. Nothing else I've seen that's on this poll is of any interest to me whatsoever.

Clay F

People either love or hate Lost in Translation. There is generally no in-between. Part of it is the Sofia Coppola directing style (which I happen to like). Lost in Translation is my top (No. 1) request for a reaction on the channel.

Clarence Newman

Not so fast, Richard. Like the first hour or so of Towering Inferno, the fire hasn't got going yet. It'll be blazing past Donnie Brasco by tomorrow morning.

JAKH

you can vote for more than 1 movie.

Clarence Newman

As for Lost in Tranny, me and Clay are breaking open some cold ones in celebration.

Clay F

Clarence -- ditto. Where is Thelma & Louise (a high request for me) -- but if forced to choose, I go with Lost in Translation.

Clarence Newman

Richard. Probably doesn't qualify as a Cassie pick, but she's promised to do it soon along with a few more Godzillas.

Clarence Newman

I'm not complaining, Clay, just being thorough. Lost In Translation is a big win.

Clay F

Currently in a distant last place out of the 8 choices.

Clay F

I like Madsen in Thelma & Louise.

Clay F

Yeah, currently a distant last place of the 8 choices.

JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS

RIP Terence Stamp, a brilliant actor who died this week. Many will know him best as General Zod in Superman 1 and 2 (1978/1980), but he had such an amazing acting career in other films like Ken Loach's Poor Cow (1967), The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert (1994), Star Wars: Episode 1 (1999). Here is a wonderful BBC Scene By Scene interview with him in 1998, he had just finished filming Star Wars: Episode 1 (1999). At 35.40 he talks about doing Hu Man (1975), doing some jaw-droppingly dangerous scenes including lying out of an open helicopter, standing in a surrounding water tide and lying down next to a lava spewing volcano! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViJ3BoeS-kQ

Clay F

Good metaphor Clarence.

Clarence Newman

But Dave....McQueen and Newman! Together!

Clarence Newman

High five! Once LIT's behind us, Clay, our next pincer movement needs to be Vicky Christina Barcelona.

Clay F

I love Scarlett Johansson in Lost in Translation, but she is young At least her character is 21-22, but even that is young for me.

David R

And FRED ASTAIRE!!

Clay F

I voted for only these 3, ranked in order of my preference: 1. Lost in Translation 2. Donnie Brasco 3. Air

David R

I did and I STILL only picked these two

Happy Hanukkah

Can't complain about the results, but it's a pity Moonstruck isn't doing better. (I'll admit to being surprised Nine Months isn't doing better. That scene with Mickey, Kim and the ice cube was a classic.)

JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS

I voted for Donnie Brasco (1997)! It is one of only six or seven films that Michael Madsen was proud of making, and he acted in nearly 350 films! I think that might be an all-time record for most acting credits for one actor!

Katie Jackson

Nine Months was my Pick too😞 We've been fighting for this one for awhile. We'll just have to keep fighting🤕🫡

Jake McNulty

You know you can vote for both of them if you want on this one.

Tracey Mendenhall Porreca

A River Runs Through It won't win, but it's a beautiful moving story. One of Brad Pitt's first films. I do hope you watch it at some point. Hidden gem

Clay F

Yeah, Nine Months [IMDb 5.5 (avg of 40,000 user ratings), RT 28%, RT Audience 37%] is a distant last place. Good cast.

Stephen Dias

Interestingly, the only one of these movies that I own is "Lost in Translation," which is currently leading. I voted, however, for "Moonstruck," which I thought would be more to Cassie's liking, although it's been a while since I've seen it.

Clay F

Clarence, we think alike here. I've had all 3 below as my PAF: 1. LIT 2. Thelma & Louise 3. VCB

Stephen Dias

Yes! I heard that. RIP, Terence Stamp.

Joe J

Towering Inferno just appeals to my reptile brain.😆

Mark Vaderr

Smart move by Cassie. Thelma & Louise is grossly overrated.

Mark Vaderr

Went with The Towering Inferno, Nine Months & Lost in Translation. Looks like Lost in Translation will advance, which is fine. It's a good movie, although I don't know why it was nominated for Best Picture. I guess everyone was bowing down to Sofia Coppola.

Clay F

“LOST IN TRANSLATION” (2003). [RT=95%]. No. 22 at popcorn requests. Won Oscar for Best Screenplay (Sofia Coppola). Oscar nominations: Best Picture, Best Director (Sofia Coppola), Best Actor (Bill Murray).

Clay F

My guess is these will be 3 of the 4 in the final poll -- which happen to be my top 3 choices of the two polls collectively: -Lost in Translation -Donnie Brasco -The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo 3 of my top requested movies on the channel. I think winner of final poll will be one of those 3. Hope she reacts not only to the 1st place finisher of the final poll, but also the 2nd place.

Mark Vaderr

As I said earlier, it's a good movie. I just didn't think it was deserving of a best picture of the year nomination. I've said the same thing about other movies that got nominated for best picture over other deserving movies.

Mark T

I agree, I thought LIT was just okay. On rewatch, I actually find it kind of boring, to be honest. I, too, would have preferred The Towering Inferno. There have been very few reactions to the disaster genre. Cassie reacted to The Poseiden Adventure and she seemed to like that. And who doesn't love Paul Newman and Steve McQueen, together in the same movie no less!

Clay F

Lost in Translation is so excellent to many of us. Towering Inferno is ok.

Chris Thom

Lost in Translation would be great. Have a hard time believing Cassie hasn't seen Hope Floats yet. Carly would enjoy too. Might watch that off the channel at some point if it can't win here. Moonstruck is a classic.

fastecp1

Donnie Brasco is my first pick, and then LIT.

bgb1975 (Brian)

Before: In Clarence's honor, "The Towering Inferno" please.

Cole Jennett

Hopefully the 3rd too if it’s Donnie Brasco😉

Cole Jennett

You should know HH doesn’t make serious posts. He’s referring to 9 1/2 weeks Clay😂

Clay F

Also my top two picks but in reverse order. Both are awesome.

Clay F

Oh, ha, didn't pay attention. And I definitely know that scene from 9 1/2 Weeks. Anybody who lived back then knew of that scene.

Steven Perez

Hey, I know how much she loves a good romance. 😏

MikeLL

You have good taste, David. Those were my two picks as well.

Javier Hernandez

Moonstruck is a gem of a story that reinvented Cher as a serious actress and jump started Nick Cage's career after several years of b-movies (Rumble Fish, Valley Girl, Sixteen Candles)

BriGuy

"A River Runs Through It" is in 6th place -- I'm so depressed.

Rick Rodriguez

Voted Donnie, Patriots, and Nine. I do like River though.

Clarence Newman

Much appreciated, Brian. Inferno is a scorcher!

Clarence Newman

I love the Stevie Nicks theme song from Towering Inferno: "Well maybe I'm just thinking that their heads are all on fire...."

Clarence Newman

Stick World's Fastest Indian on the bottom and we've got us a poll.

Clarence Newman

Maybe so, Mark, but there's no way Cassie is deliberately passing up a young and topless Brad Pitt. She's only human.

Happy Hanukkah

:-) But I was definitely serious about Moonstruck. The Dukakis-Mahoney side-scene on its own is worth the price of admission. (Though not quite as hot as that 9 1/2 weeks scene.)

Clay F

Thelma & Louise a profound and groundbreaking movie. Changed society. Also, highly entertaining. Callie Khouri won Best Writing Oscar. Oscar noms = Ridley Scott (Best Director), Susan Sarandon, Geena Davis. All well deserved. Deserved even more accolades. An underrated movie.

Clay F

I am open to World’s Fastest Indian.

Mark White

I can’t say there is a overwhelming favourite for me on this pole, so Towering inferno and Lost in translation for Clarence and Clay respectively.

Cole Jennett

Where’s Katie Jackson? Figured she’d be happy to see Nine Months on a poll, even though it’s not going to win😔

Clay F

The poll results (both polls) are great for me. I wonder if the incoming GoT fans as new patrons are having a positive influence on the poll results. Cassie's Picks polling = success for me (and her).

Jacob King

Lost in Translation! I did recently see a video of Hugh Grant apologising for Nine Months which I appreciated.

Dan M

Katie, we’re the Rocky Balboas of PiB. We just keeping fighting and fighting even when the odds are against us. 🥊

Tyler Foster

When Harry Met Sally, Moonstruck, Crossing Delancey, and Desperately Seeking Susan -- the four crown jewels of 1980s NYC rom-coms

Dan M

Good grief! Nine Months hasn’t even broken 100 votes! I have a novel idea…how about the bottom two from this poll advance to the next level. I’m desperate.

Dan M

I’m right there with her, Cole. This movie is tailor made for Cassie, and it’s in deader than dead last. I’ve been lobbying for her to watch this movie and School Ties since she finally saw Mr. Holland’s Opus and Pleasantville, the last two movies that I lobbied hard for.

Cole Jennett

Both are on my request list. Not at the tippy top, but on there

Dan M

I mean, C’MON! A romcom with babies?!?!

Cole Jennett

Probably going to have to be a PPOTM at this point. Same with Stepmom and The Judge.

Jack

I’m hoping for Lost in Translation, but I’m also happy to see The Man in the Iron Mask doing well.

Jack

Lost in Translation is a perfect movie to me. The first time I saw it I was like eh? Then I randomly felt like watching it again a few years later and everything clicked. I’ve seen it more than any other movie.

JPDotCom23

Ugh, LiT, at least Donnie Brasco is up there

Clarence Newman

Towering Inferno is creeping up the stairwell, through the elevator shafts and in the pants of poor folks who got too close to the flames. A few more hours and Donnie Brasco will start feeling the heat. (Just looked at how long is left on the poll and it's still 2 days! Guys, I don't think my fire metaphors are going to hold out that long.")

Clarence Newman

You make it sound like a lurgey I passed on to her, Flag. And if you're correct and she's finally started listening to my drivel, then where's Thelma & Louise? Where's Cool Hand Luke? Where's Bullitt & Papillon? Lost In Translation's on there, but me and Clay have double-teamed her on that one.

Richard Maurer

Towering Inferno is moving up the poll - at a ironically glacial pace.

Clarence Newman

We need to be attacking the problem on two fronts - big up the brilliance of Towering Inferno while educating folks about how crap Donnie Brasco is. Who wants to watch a film about a rabbit with long ears terrorising Jake Gyllenhaal??

Dolores Bellini

You're thinking Donnie Darko. Donnie Brasco is with Johnny Depp.

Clarence Newman

Don't tell them, Dolores! My ruse was working!

Nolofinwe

Lost in translation. ???? UGH !! , somebody shoot me . Two hours of sad sack ugly Bill Murray in a non comedy LOL let's go all the way and watch razors edge. man im gonna get some hate for this one 😂😂

Mark Vaderr

Did he apologize for Notting Hill as well?

Richard Maurer

One Donnie is a good as another, right Clarence?

Richard Maurer

Is it weird that I want Cassie to react to Donnie Darko now, considering I don’t really like Donnie Darko that much? But not for October, DD is not a horror movie.

Clay F

"Lost in Translation" (2003) sheer domination. Been my PAF at times. Also glad to see "Donnie Brasco" a dominant 2nd, leaving Towering Inferno in the dust. I've long wanted her to react to Donnie Brasco. Sorry to my fellow patrons who wanted The Towering Inferno (1974). A River Runs Through it (1992), Moonstruck (1987), and Patriots Day (2016) all 3 in a tight race for a respectable 4th place. Nine Months (1995) [unavailable to stream on major services] a distant last place.

Katie Jackson

Nine Months was my vote but it was obvious right away that it wasn't going to win. I did leave a post on Dan's comment. Pretty bummed though, it was my first choice out of both polls combined. I've also had a brutal week. Busting my butt at work and home with little to no sleep, Thank God I don't work tomorrow!

Clayton Johnson

No hate from me, I fell asleep trying to watch it, not my cup of tea.

Clarence Newman

I refuse to believe that Towering Inferno is in the dust. As Flag pointed out in another post, there's a reason Cassie picked it and that's because she wants to watch it BADLY. Right now she is cussing the non-voters and fixing to Popcorn pick the best movie on the list. Disclaimer: As Clay already knows, none of the above affects Lost In Translation's statutory rights as the best movie on this list.

David

Lost in Translation is the obvious choice here, no doubt.

Clarence Newman

Richard. All Donnies are created equal. Except Donnie Osmond. I know true greatness when I hear it.

Above Average Dave

He should apologize for everything before 2002 except 4 WEDDINGS and ABOUT A BOY. All these recent movies where he plays a scumbag seem much more in character for him.

Jacob King

He’s definitely having more fun now he’s not a leading man.

Clay F

I am unsure if Cassie would like Lost in Translation, but nevertheless I want LiT or Dragon Tattoo (or even Donnie Brasco) to win the final poll. If I had to guess, I think she would like LiT, but who knows. LiT is one of those movies in which people love or hate the movie, not much in between. Part of it is Sofia Coppola's directing style.

Clarence Newman

Cassie will LOVE Lost In Translation, and so will Carly. I have not been this sure since Officer and a Gentleman.

Clarence Newman

Notting Hill is pretty good. All the feels, plus an epic pair of Y-fronts.

Clarence Newman

It's happening! Yesterday Towering Inferno was 45 votes behind Donnie Brasco, today it's only 44. Cassie, please leave this poll up for another month and a half.

Richard Maurer

Global warming will melt that ironic Towing Inferno glacier of yours before it catches up to Donnie Brasco, unfortunately.

Clarence Newman

Shower me with all the tomatoes you want. It's already embedded as one of Cassie's picks and is therefore inevitable. Besides, you've got bigger problems. Byrd is up there suggesting Gremlins for October.

Richard Maurer

Gremlins is a horror comedy at least. Not a bad pick, for the “treat” side anyway. I mean he didn’t recommend something silly like King Kong (05) or The Time Machine for Halloween at least.

Richard Maurer

Just a reminder - I voted for Towering Inferno, but I gotta be real about its chances - slim and none, mostly none at this point.

Clarence Newman

Well, I appreciate it. But I once went to a Halloween party (I was an executioner and my wife was a werewolf) where some guy was dressed as a gorilla. Therefore, King Kong gets a hall pass.

Chris Thom

Wow kind of surprised Lost in Translation has this much support. All for it, but a bit surprised with this list.

Richard Maurer

33 Kong has a hall pass. That’s it. The rest are more monster movies than horror.

Clarence Newman

Exactly. Now try convincing Cassie a monster movie is not a horror movie and therefore fair game for October. I bet you can't do it.

Richard Maurer

You got me there. Cassie clearly doesn’t listen to me, especially on subjects I’m over qualified to speak on, like horror movies.

Grad

Yes. Will be interesting to see how it does in the final poll.

Lost in Translation broke 400 votes. FINAL POLL (w/votes shown from preliminary polls) --The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011) [Poll 1 = 462 votes] --The Man in the Iron Mask (1998) [Poll 1 = 327 votes] --Lost in Translation (2003) [Poll 2 = 405 votes] --Donnie Brasco (1997) [Poll 2 = 310 votes] I hope she reacts to the top 2 finishers in the Final Poll, especially if Lost in Translation (2003) and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011). Cassie's Picks Poll = great idea. Glad won Pollception.

Though initially hesitant, I wasn't too surprised. Lost in Translation No. 22 at Popcorn Requests. That's higher than any other movie on this list. The only other two movies in the Top 200 are Moonstruck and Donnie Brasco. Popcorn Requests Ranking No. 22. Lost in Translation No. 223. A River Runs Through it (1992) No. 260. The Towering Inferno (1974) No. 1183. Nine Months (1995) No. 46. Moonstruck No. 48. Donnie Brasco No. 1614. Air (2023) No. 498. Patriot's Day

Clarence Newman

I think she should watch anything that broke 262. That's pretty much the golden threshold.

Chitown Livingston

Hope yah watch Donnie Brasco too. Besides Al Pacino and Johnny Depp, I thought Anne Heche and the others did a great job acting too. Sad movie... I got sent for...

Chitown Livingston

Roll up the window you're given me pneomonia here! I'm getting cancer over here!

Clay F

Anne Heche did do great. R.I.P.
