I just went LIVE and picked at random 9 numbers from our PR #1-50 and here is our poll! Next time we will cast the net bigger!

Good List, great list!

Comments

djKENTO

Hell yeah for The Accountant. Autistic representation that isn’t cringe or fetishizing it. Let’s goooooo!!!

Benjamin Gerrald

Dang Dr Strangelove should outright win this.

Just Plain Bob

Lynda Carter is the true Wonder Woman.

Gray

Dr Strangelove all the way!

WestBound

Let's go panic room !

Jake McNulty

Another chance for Donnie Brasco!

Stephen Malloy

Dr. Strangelove, one of the greatest movies ever made. Will probably finish in last place.

Starpartyguy

I voted for the accountant but honestly, so many reactors have already done that movie, I’m actually hoping for something else to win.

Pop n Lock

Moonstruck is such a a freaking classic

Adam Doyle

Panic Room is an under appreciated David Fincher movie. Tense scenes and great cast. I think it would be right up Cassie's alley.

Stick Figure Studios

I figured you were going to do WONDER WOMAN after BATMAN V SUPERMAN anyway, so I'm voting for DR. STRANGELOVE.

Shawn Kildal

Isn't Cassie watching Wonder Woman regardless after Batman V Superman? It's part of the Zack Snyder's DC universe.

WestBound

For the love of no more boomer movies

Joel Baumgartner

Great movie. Story, action, comedy, everything is nailed.

Cole Jennett

I think Wonder Woman has a chance of being watched between Batman v Superman and Justice League, but I’m still throwing a vote towards it. Glad it’s multi-vote as there are some good ones

LukeG84

I voted for Short Circuit and The Accountant, but knowing how these polls go I’m guessing neither will win.

Omar

Short Circuit more like Short a few votes

Cole Jennett

There’s been no confirmation, but I’m hopeful. It’s probably the best DC movie

Richard Maurer

My picks are The Accountant, Jackie Brown, Wonder Woman in that order. The rest - don’t hate any of them - except Short Circuit

Cole Jennett

You can vote for as many as you want

Dan M

Naturally, my choices of Moonstruck and Sixteen Candles are in last place already. Surprise, surprise.

Brent Petty

Panic Room. Not scary, but intense. Would be a good one for Carly as well.

Jim at Super Powered Design

Wonder Woman has it all. Fantasy, Girl Power, Action & Romance. I like to vote on stuff that she will like, not necessarily what I like. (although I really like WW.)

Ike

SIXTEEN CANDLES is an 80’s classic. Gotta have it. Next, WONDER WOMAN. Why not? You’re on a Zack Snyder-verse run anyway. Third, JACKIE BROWN, which I think is one of Quentin Tarantino’s best.

Jack

Why not just watch an extra Cassie’s Pick from the other poll? 😭

Old As Dirt Bert

Many folks vote for what they'd like best. I'm voting for the film Cassie would like best (in my opinion) - Moonstruck. It'll lose again, but she'll get to delight in it some day.

Starpartyguy

Peter Sellers played so many roles and had some great ad-lib lines.

Dork Diggler

Doctor strange Love is such a bad movie. I tried to watch it for the first time last week and I couldn't even get halfway through it. War games was much better.

Shad Kanyak

Didn’t expect the Accountant would even be in the mix. I guess we’re striving for mediocrity now?

Omar

I STILL BELIEVE IN MIRACLES

K, Zachary

We are about half through The Human Comedy. Jackie Brown directed by Quentin Tarantino my friends and I watched that in HS.

Garrett Wilson

If Dr. Strangelove wins, she'll have to answer to the Coca-Cola company.

Tyler Foster

As always, rooting for Moonstruck.

Cole Jennett

Donnie Brasco had done so well on the previous poll, I guess everyone used up their votes😂

Joe J

Another 10 day Poll (haha).

Happy Hanukkah

Thank you for easing my task by making this multi-vote. :-)

Chris Thom

Whoops accidently voted for all of them. Kind of defeats the purpose. lol

bknsty14

Donnie Brasco in last is shameful

Anthony Carlson

Not only I picked the Accountant, but I also chose Short Circuit and Wonder Woman.

TheSingulatarian

If I didn't watch movies with awful people involved, I wouldn't watch any movies at all.

Brent Petty

Yeah. Never have understood the love for it. It's decent, but nothing special.

Carlos

I CANNOT believe Moonstruck is coming in last. Cassie would LOVE that one.

Shehab Dawoud

Thank you, brother. I was gonna write it but it might've gotten me in trouble.

Cole Jennett

I think it’s pretty obvious that it’s a mistake and will be fixed

Shad Kanyak

I didn’t dislike it either. Very vanilla and average. Especially with it being in a list of some very iconic movies.

Jacob King

My votes went to Dr Strangelove, Jackie Brown and The Accountant. I will say, The Accountant is a ton of fun but Warrior (2011) is by the same director and would be the number 1 pick of everyone who likes to see Cassie cry.

Clay F

Next to last

Shahin Amir

I think Short Circuit is an underrated classic, and will be appreciated for how heart-warming and adorable Johnny 5 is.

brooke atkins

My picks are in last place every single time she makes a poll. I don’t even bother to vote anymore. It’s just pointless at this point.

Keith Jacobsen

C'moooon y'all, Accountant is under-appreciated...

Mojo One Thousand

Cassie has already seen "Warrior" before the channel, which is likely why it doesn't come up often... I would be suggesting it if was unseen.

Cole Jennett

Aside from my top choice in Donnie Brasco, this is a really tight race!

Shehab Dawoud

I didn't love The Accountant, but if it gets us to the sequel, which I thought was much better, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. I do love me some Affleck and Bernthal.

Clay F

Donnie Brasco (1997) is my favorite movie on the list -- little love here. My favorite Johnny Depp movie. Depp, Al Pacino = stellar performances. Also, Michael Madson (R.I.P.). Donnie Brasco (1997) performed better in Cassie's Picks polls. Finished 2nd of 8 choices in its Cassie's Picks preliminary poll. Came in 4th (last) in the final poll, but at least made it to the final poll.

Dan M

Don’t give up, Brooke! We need to stay strong if we’re going to have these movies that we love get their time in the spotlight.

Robert Jewell

That is a goid list. Thank goodness there's multiple choice. Sixteen Candles because it's my teen/childhood experience; Moonstruck because it's something you'll love; Jackie Brown because it's a director I don't much care for best picture and another one you'll like because ( I'll whisper it...it's got romance.)

Milton Reduxed

Short Circuit, Donnie Brasco, Jackie Brown

Jacob King

It’s a mean comparison but boomer movies like Dr Strangelove over Gen X movies like Short Circuit.

Andrew Mote

Jackie Brown is such an underrated Tarantino. Please no Wonder Woman.

Benjamin Gerrald

It is not even about it being a "Boomer" film. It is one of the greatest films ever made.

Wayne McKinney

These are all good movies but "Moonstruck" is the one that Cassie & Carly will fall in love with.

Happy Hanukkah

Philip: No, they seem to be using airplanes only, not submarines.

Benjamin Gerrald

... You realize it has a nearly perfect rating on most review sites right?

Mark T

Yeah, I don't understand how it's currently in last place

Justtired

For various reasons, I hope you react to everything on this list. Moonstruck, Short Circuit and Sixteen Candles would be perfect for cassie/carly reactions. I’m not a huge fan of the Wonder Woman franchise. No one has really brought that character to life yet, but it’s still worth a watch. Everyone should watch Dr Strangelove at least once

djKENTO

It’s a movie that respects neurodivergent characters without boiling them down to unrealistic or cringey tropes. Representation matters and for a lot of us autistic people this is kind of all we’ve got.

Knight Squirrel

Panic Room might have to wait for October. I know its not a scary movie per-se, but the premise might be jarring for Cassie. 🤷‍♂️ I think she and Carly would enjoy Wonder Woman.

Shawn Kildal

Her kids would probably like it too

Dan W

donnie brasco can’t seem to break through 😭

Happy Hanukkah

"I'm not touching you! I'm not touching you!" 🙄

thebeefmaster

Top 5 best satire of all time. The viewer must be able to recognize and appreciate satire in order to be able to enjoy this film.

Ryan Mitchell

I have a hunch Jackie Brown will be Cassie's favorite Tarantino movie, whenever she gets around to watching it.

Chad Laurence

Making her watch boring movies like Jackie Brown or Donnie B is a good idea though lol? And Wonder Woman is good so...

Benjamin Gerrald

Wonder woman is easily the weakest film on the list. is gets a mediocre score on review sites at best. The last 20 mins of the film is total trash.

Benjamin Gerrald

Jackie Brown has way better reviews than Wonder woman.

Robert Baldino

93 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. 7.3/10 on IMDB. 3.2/5 on Letterboxd. Plus it has Chris Pine, who she will enjoy seeing.

Zander

"Well, above average"

Zander

It's frustrating. Do we know if American Graffiti is on the top 50 list?

Marc Peterson

Only one masterpiece on the list…Dr. Strangelove

Happy Hanukkah

"for a lot of us autistic people" Ah. Never mind, then.

Chris Tucker

First one is OK; 2nd one (WW84)... oh man.

Benjamin Gerrald

Rotten tomatoes is corrupt as hell, it you look at the other more reliable sites like IMDB and meta critic, as you mentioned is gets 7.x grades, as in solid C grades. Jackie Brown generally gets a 4.5 out of 5.

Benjamin Gerrald

Agree it is ok at best. The ending was terrible. The second one got such terrible reviews I never even watched it.

Timothy Williams

You will LOVE Wonder Woman, Cassie! Everyone vote for what she would love.

Milton Reduxed

Did we not agree to no more Ben Assfleck movies, or did I dream that?

Tim Weaver

Jackie Brown Moonstruck & Donnie Brasco earned my votes

Jacob King

I think everyone’s red lines and hard limits are going to different but everyone has people they don’t want to see in a movie (especially in escapist fantasy movies).

Shehab Dawoud

You dreamt it. Just like how you dreamt that Bill Murray was a good actor or even funny.

Rose Cullenward

Monnstruck is amazing. A perfect Cassie and Carly watch. It has the best cast (Cher, Nicholas Cage) and Olympia Dukakis won her Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her performance. Wonderful romance and heart.

Happy Hanukkah

Ah, so we should ignore Rotten Tomatoes and look at the "reliable" IMDb. OK, then. 8.3 Dr. Strangelove --- 7.7 Donnie Brasco 7.5 Jackie Brown -> 7.3 Wonder Woman 7.3 The Accountant 7.2 Moonstruck 7.0 Sixteen Candles 6.8 Panic Room 6.6 Short Circuit I fail to see how this supports your contention that "Wonder woman is easily the weakest film on the list," or even that Jackie Brown is clearly better.

Stan the Man

@Shehab Dawoud That’s because Bill Murray isn’t a good actor & isn’t funny. Bill Murray is a GREAT actor & he’s HILARIOUS

Happy Hanukkah

No please. Finish your thought. What makes Gal Gadot a "genuinely awful person" and what has she been "saying and justifying lately"?

Benjamin Gerrald

So you agree, Jackie Brown does better. And Dr Stranglove blows the rest out of the water. Thanks for proving my point.

Stan the Man

Don’t you think that would make the channel boring? What’s better than a movie you don’t think she’d love but she ends up digging it? Or a movie that challenges her, makes her think? I voted for Dr. Strangelove. Do I think Cassie will love or appreciate the humour? I really don’t know. But it’s a film everyone should see. Wonder Woman is a movie she’ll come around to anyways after she watched Batman V Superman.

Timothy Williams

I voted Strangelove, too, but there is nothing wrong with suggesting a very good and popular movie that she would like. Should we vote against movies we think she would like? I never said ONLY vote for movies she would like.

Andrew Mote

Jackie Brown boring and Wonder Woman is good??? What color is the sky in your world?

Rob

Dr Strangelove is must see.

Happy Hanukkah

I'd be quite satisfied with a Strangelove win (though I'm not it would make for the best reaction), and I sympathize with anybody disappointed it is not leading. But if you think I proved your point, ... well, I'm glad I was able to gratify you. :-)

Clay F

Wonder Woman is definitely better than BvS. Wonder Woman would make for a great reaction. Needs to win now, no waiting till after BvS or till after Justice League or till after Superman (2025) -- instead Wonder Woman now (immediately) while the fire is hot. I voted Wonder Woman w/o question. The future is not predictable on this channel. if Wonder Woman doesn't win this win poll, may never get a reaction to Wonder Woman.

Maisie

Ugh the Accountant is terrible.

Shehab Dawoud

Aww someone got his feelings hurt😂😂

Clay F

Good movie. Battling for last place.

Benjamin Gerrald

I am easy to please when people make my point for me.

Dan M

Kind of ironic that a movie Cassie AND Carly would absolutely adore is in dead last. 🙄

Happy Hanukkah

Clay: Sadly. And I am slightly surprised by its low-ish IMDb score of 7.2.

Clay F

I voted only these 3: 1. Donnie Brasco 2. Jackie Brown 3. Wonder Woman I like The Accountant ok but prefer Wonder Woman. I watched Short Circuit in 1987 and didn't really like it. My wife at the time did. I liked Panic Room ok.

Chris Thom

She should just pick that one at some point just because.

Xavier Casanova

Jackie Brown is my favorite Quentin Tarantino movie.

Dan M

What does any actor’s or actress’ personal life and actions off screen have anything to do with a movie they’re starring in being a good movie or an enjoyable movie?

Ace Degenerate

Dr. Strangelove, Moonstruck, Panic Room and Short Circuit for me. Jackie Brown never quite landed for me except for a few scenes and I’ve never seen Dr. Strangelove. Just never got around to it.

Clay F

CURRENT #19 Wonder Woman (2017) – 192 #31 The Accountant (2016) – 184 The 5 in the middle = 137, 143, 144, 151, 161 #48 Moonstruck (1982) - 84 #45 Donnie Brasco (1997) – 82

Clay F

Jackie Brown is my 2nd favorite Tarantino after Pulp Fiction. I voted Jackie Brown.

Cole Jennett

None of this happens if you keep your political thoughts to yourself. This is definitely not the place for it.

Renato Stojanovic

The Accountant is my fav out of the group, but also selected Wonder Woman and Panic Room. All 3 are movies I can and have watched more than once. I have seen all others, but didn't care for them that much.

Clay F

Yah -- I know. Not top 3 for me here but I like The Accountant ok. I like the Ben Affleck character. I like the actor who plays his brother. I like Anna Kendrick. But overall not a top movie for me. I am hoping to like The Accountant 2 (2025).

Cole Jennett

Being put on polls puts movies more on her radar for future PPotM’s

Richard Maurer

No more bad Ben Affleck movies - The Accountant is a good movie so is unaffected by that rule.

Johnny

I can't believe The Accountant is doing so well.

Clay F

I liked Panic Room.

John Liebling

I know Cassie is going to enjoy Wonder Woman...let us all collectively encourage her to not... ever watch the sequel. How could the first one be an excellent A+ and its follow up be at best a D-???

Johnny

Good list. I don't understand how Donnie Brasco is getting no love. It's such a good movie, and based on a true story, too.

Clay F

Yeah, skip the sequel.

Clay F

"The Accountant writes off a committed performance from Ben Affleck, leaving viewers with a scattershot action thriller beset by an array of ill-advised deductions."

Matt Rose

Bummed that MOONSTRUCK isn't running away with this.

Cole Jennett

So you think “she’s a genuinely awful person” for some non-political reason? And her “dog water takes” have nothing to do with politics? If so, I apologize.

Clay F

This poll random selection of candidates from PR 1-50. So not stacked.

Clay F

Good movie. Fighting for last place.

Cole Jennett

Agreed. His comment was ignorant too. Should have said something about both in hindsight.

Chris Tucker

I'd rank these, best to worst: 1. Dr Strangelove (As another user mentioned, the only masterpiece on the list.) 2. Jackie Brown (I should watch this one again.) 3. Sixteen Candles (Classic 80s, Molly Ringwald) 4. Wonder Woman (2017 one is good, but the sequel, Wonder Woman '84 is LOLOLOLOL bad and one of the worst films I've seen in my life.) 5. Short Circuit (Enjoyed this when I saw it as a kid; but would I still like it today? "Nun Soup.") 6. Moonstruck (good but sleepy) Have not seen: Donnie Brasco (1997) The Accountant (2016) Panic Room (2002)

Happy Hanukkah

??? I didn't get mad at you and certainly wasn't lashing out. Indeed, I was happy that I was able to find an explanation for your behavior. Since you apparently need me to spell it out, it is well-established that a common symptom of ASD is a more literal interpretation of the rules than the neurotypical. This would allow me to interpret your breaking Rule #3 (no politics) as an ASD-linked misapprehension that as long as you are not making *explicitly* political statements, you are fine. Most of us realize that deliberately skirting the rules in this way, as you did, is clearly against Cassie's wishes and invites a corrosive political debate. It would normally mark anyone doing so as a disingenuous jerk acting in bad faith. Again, I am so very happy to learn that isn't the case.

Christian Becker

Some nice movies on the list, but for me there's really just one classic, must see, on it - Strangelove ;-)

Happy Hanukkah

Is it possible you two are using different interpretations of "stacked"? Clay's negative "the deck was stacked" vs Spank's positive "the music festival has a stacked lineup"?

Clay F

I though that possible -- for instance that "stacked" to him meant stacked with many good movies and thus a great poll (and his comment having nothing to do with fairness or deception or rigging). But Google AI told me: "The phrase 'a poll being stacked' means that the poll is intentionally designed to produce a specific, biased result."

Happy Hanukkah

Clay, I don't think anyone actually fights for last place. :-) :-) :-)

Milton Reduxed

When I heard 'stacked' I was waiting for Cassie to chime in with a 'your mom' joke

Clay F

I think plainly she would like Wonder Woman better than Jackie Brown. I voted these 3: Donnie Brasco, Jackie Brown, Wonder Woman.

Happy Hanukkah

At this point, it is up to Spank to clarify, should he wish.

Happy Hanukkah

Could some high panjandrum verify the length of the poll?

Clay F

Dr Stranglelove (1964) a respectable distant 3rd.

CJ Holden

Despite one unfortunate element that is quite a huge part of the movie (You know what I'm talking about), SHORT CIRCUIT is still some good 80s fun. DR STRANGELOVE is obviously the one stone cold masterpiece on the list. JACKIE BROWN always rubbed me the wrong way. I've never been the biggest Tarantino fan, but when he takes on Elmore Leonard, things get awkward. (Elmore Leonard: "Don't write the parts that the readers will skip anyway." Tarantino: "This scene now runs for 10 minutes and nothing interesting has been said or done, so I let it run five more minutes and do the same in the next scene.")

Milton Reduxed

We need some kind of electoral college for PiB where nerds are the blue states /j

Milton Reduxed

@ Stick, it's the only Tarantino movie I like and one of just two proper films he's made

kaiielle

Cassie said in the EB Live tonight that she meant to set it for 48 hours. Patreon defaults to 7-8 days when you set up a poll - she simply forgot to change it.

Happy Hanukkah

Thanks for the info. (If I recall correctly, the poll length can be adjusted without having to re-start the poll.)

Dean Holt

Chris the 3 you’ve not seen before would probably be my favourite out of them lol. But you might have to watch Donnie Brasco in your own time as it keeps loosing all the polls it gets put in. I do agree about Short Circuit I think the last time I saw it was in the 90s when I was in my teens.

Dean Holt

I actually really enjoyed it and the sequel I thought was even better. But I love action movies, but tbh I wasn’t a massive fan of WW though it was ok film but just a bit average.

Rick Rodriguez

Donnie, Dr strangelove, and Moonstruck.

Clarence Newman

Donnie Brasco is definitely greasing somebody's palm. It's literally been on every poll since last February. Otherwise, Panic Room is the best movie on here. Jodie is good, but it's Forest Whitaker who adds the depth to it.

Johnny

Yeah, the sequel is so horrible. I watched it after hearing it was bad, but I still told myself that it was going to be fun to watch, but holy crap it was awful.

Dean Holt

Well she going to be watching BvS at some point, so you must have dream it. I’ll be honest I don’t really see why people have a big issue with him. Yeah he might have been in some bad films. But even the greatest actor have been in something bad. For example Pacino - Jack & Jill and Dick Tracy Denzel - Safe House, Gladiator 2, Flight & Fallen Hanks - The Da Vinci Code, Cloud Atlas & Asteroid City

Ria Grix

As an 80s kid I have a soft spot for Sixteen Candles and as a film nerd I have a soft spot for Dr. Strangelove.

Just Plain Bob

I’m a huge fan of Elmore Leonard, having read every novel (including his westerns, which are superb) and short story he ever wrote. He loved Tarantino’s adaptation of “Rum Punch.” Asked by Time Magazine which movie was the best adaptation of his work, he stated, “Jackie Brown, which [Quentin] Tarantino did. He surprised me. I thought he might be all over the place, but he stayed very, very close to the plot and used quite a bit of the dialogue.”

MikeLL

Moonstruck loses yet another poll and my heart breaks all over again.

Just Plain Bob

I enjoyed “The Accountant.” Having majored in accounting in college and being a CPA, I can confirm that our standard skill set is exactly as depicted in the film. And, having worked for more than twenty years as an investigator of public corruption, I can say that the movie hit the nail on the head regarding forensic accounting. Never did a single investigation that didn’t require the extensive use of martial arts and firearms.😂

MikeLL

Wait, Wonder Woman is in the lead now? A mediocre at best DCEU movie? Surely a new low for a PiB poll.

Just Plain Bob

Sadly, “Panic Room” is exactly the kind of suspense movie that frequently gets passed off here as being “scary but not too scary.” So I’d say it has a decent chance come October.

Just Plain Bob

Clay, I enjoyed “The Accountant.” It’s absurd but fun. But I thought Affleck completely lost the character in the sequel. He no longer acts like he’s autistic (or, at least, it’s not nearly so pronounced) and its action is mainly comprised of a couple of standard, but overly long, gunfight scenes. It really bored me.

John Cranberry

Have to admit, WW was an awesome movie. CP and his assistant were a perfect balance to WW. Can't wait to watch it with Cassie.

John Cranberry

Disagree, WW was very well made and the best DC movie by a country mile.

John Cranberry

Interesting, but DB and WW are the pick of the crop for me.

John Cranberry

Go WW....🤣🤣🤣 I think Cassie will love WW because of the romance. Bet you anything she cries. 😭

Larry Darrell

Actually, given the current state of things, it might be the other way around for nerds.

David Livingston

"Wonder Woman" is VERY good!! "Short Circuit" is a CLASSIC - it is a great movie!! Even if it doesn't win the poll, I highly recommend this movie (and the sequel)!!!

CJ Holden

I know I'm in the minority when it comes to JACKIE BROWN and Tarantino. Storywise it is maybe his most focused movie except RESERVOIR DOGS (Which also happens to be the only one of his movies that I absolutely love!), but this was really the point when his head fully disappeared up his A-money-money and nobody dared to tell him what to cut. I don't mind long movies, I am okay with dialogue heavy movies and I love it when a movie has a bunch of random stuff in it that doesn't necessarily advances the plot. But this is a 100-110 minutes movie, stretched into at times painfully long 2 1/2 hours. If Cassie watches it, I hope she has a great time with it, but I feel that the short version in her reaction video will be much more enjoyable than the full length work.

Clay F

Looks like Moonstruck will secure last place.

Just Plain Bob

I also voted for Jackie Brown. Elmore Leonard loved Tarantino’s adaptation of his novel Rum Punch, considering it the best adaptation of his work ever made. It was a very nice marriage of man to material. Being a fan of both Leonard and Tarantino, it’s no surprise that it’s high on my list of personal faves.

ElmSt Reactions

Short circuit, classic that you dont see much. Reactions can start getting boring when everyone keeps doing the same ones

Aaron Mann

Seriously guys, another comic book movie? 🙄

Aaron Mann

Thank you. Can we give the comic book movies a rest? Especially WW. It was okay, but no way befitting of #1 spot in this poll.

Just Plain Bob

An overrated one, at that. WW is fine but nothing special. There’s at least a half dozen better choices in the poll.

Alex Gorell

Guys… she’s going to watch WW as she continues her DCEU journey why are we voting for it??

Ian Tonge

I don't understand the hate for the sequel. Or the praise for the first one for that matter. They're both fine. Nothing special, but perfectly adequate.

Sam Hiraoka

Because we're not very bright. I vote for Panic Room .

Sam Hiraoka

And the Accountant. Maybe it will catch up to WW.

Richard Maurer

To be fair Moonstruck is a Rom-Com. And rom-coms don’t do well here when they’re in polls with other genres. Something that the patrons actually get right, imo.

Richard Maurer

Without being specific, I identified a lot with Ben Affleck’s character in The Accountant. This film started me on a journey of self-realization. This film will always have a special significance to me. You can read between the lines all you want.

Richard Maurer

Dean - Fallen is a good movie. But you make a good point about all big actors having a bad movie or two. Or three…….

Richard Maurer

Just as long as she doesn’t watch Wonder Woman 1984 *cringe*

John Deardurff

Tough choices! I think all of these would be great. But... JOHNNY 5 is Alive! 🤖

Richard Maurer

JP Bob - Panic Room; not even close to a horror film. Or a Halloween film. So of course it gets suggested for October.

bgb1975 (Brian)

"Gentlemen! You can't fight in here! This is the war room!"

Richard Maurer

I tried to watch a reaction to Short Circuit recently, couldn’t get through the reaction. It’s the epitome of 80’s cringe to me.

Dork Diggler

Yes I do which is why I was blown away at how much I didn't like it..

Clarence Newman

I have to agree, guys. MCU/DCU/Comic book superheroes fall totally flat on me. My interest peaked with the first Iron Man.

Richard Maurer

Clarence - you like Cannonball Run. Need I say more?

George G

If you watch "Dr Strangelove" then you MUST WATCH "Fail-Safe" as well

Mark White

I’ve got to say Clarence I am a big fan of the MCU, we’ll certainly the infinity saga and I do appreciate, without really enjoying the DCU. BUT, I’m really not sure why anybody is voting for wonder woman??!! Cassie is going to watch it within the next month. You can be positive about that. Although as I right this, I think I remember 🤔Cassie saying she was going to watch the Fly some decades ago! 😏😆

Mark White

And that Richard is possibly the greatest superhero movie of all time! 😆 Captain Chaos to the rescue. Da-dum-duuummmm!

Mark White

Was going for “Panic room” But changed my mind to “The Accountant” for you Richard. It’s a good movie. Cassie will enjoy.

Clarence Newman

Wut? Back to Panic Room, Mark. Abort, abort!

Clarence Newman

He will never understand, Mark. Richard frowns on anything below the rank of Count.

Joe J

I went with The Accountant, I've been wanting that one to get watched for awhile now. I like WW also, I just assumed she would be watching it anyway.

Mark White

surely Cassie is watching Wonder Woman after BvS? Just wondering why put on the list? I think what will happen guys, is if it wins Cassie will just watch second place as well as WW.

Mark White

End the poll now! Cassie will watch WW and The Accountant.

Joe J

Panic Room would make for an entertaining reaction, it will get watched at some point.

Joe J

I need a Bloodsport reaction, cheesy I know, but I've always liked it.

Cole Jennett

Nothing is guaranteed, not even Justice League

Cole Jennett

Hard disagree, I think it’s the best one.

Mark White

Yep, panic room is a good movie, which is also a rare movie like from my wife. I’m sure that will get its chance on the channel.

Mark White

I agree Cole, nothing is guaranteed, but, I think we can be 99% sure, Justice League will be watched! If you watch man of steel/BvS and WW, because one way or the other it looks like that is happening. I’m sure Cassie will watch JL.

Richard Maurer

Just to be clear, I wasn’t asking anyone to vote for The Accountant or change their vote. I was just giving my reason for doing so, and I struggled with the decision to do so precisely because I wasn’t looking for anything from anyone with this post.

7KingKong7

Jackie Brown lets go, more QT movies the better!

Richard Maurer

I appreciate that you did change your vote Mark. But if you really prefer Panic Room you can change it back. I won’t be offended.

Steve Hutchinson

Jackie Brown may be my favorite Tarantino movie. Such great acting to go with the great story

Cole Jennett

She said in the butter tier live that she didn’t think she would do it because of the length. Many people told her that Snyder fans would revolt if she stopped. I still expect it, but If BvS doesn’t get great views though… So yeah, it’s not a sure thing

Just Plain Bob

I don’t blame the filmmakers for making such I mid movie. The simple truth is that’s about the best you can expect for a film version of a DC Comics character. Richard Donner’s Superman was fantastic and Batman is a great character. Other than that, the simple fact is that Marvel Comics has always been miles better than DC.

Just Plain Bob

Glad to see a rom-com doing poorly. Can’t stand the genre. All the truly good ones were made before 1980. The true greats were almost exclusively in black and white and starred people like Cary Grant, Jimmy Stewart and Katharine Hepburn. But modern rom-coms are nauseatingly bad.

Just Plain Bob

Richard, Fallen was fine but if I want a movie about a fallen angel with a Hollywood lead, I’ll go with Prophecy. Christopher Walken owned that movie and character.

Richard Maurer

I always have to laugh at the modern version of Wonder Woman at little, knowing the original WW was a bondage / S&M fetish character. Look at the og comics on google if you don’t believe it.

Mark White

It’s really ok Richard, it was a close call. Too close really. So it makes no difference to me!

Joel

Yes, Jackie Brown. The best QT movie in my opinion.

Clarence Newman

Don't worry, Mark, I am fluent in Maurer. He said he won't be offended if you change it back, which means he *will* be offended if you don't. He can't say it outright because of his pride thing, but he's giving you the nod to abort.

Richard Maurer

Clarence - you and your movie choices are the only things that really offend me here.

Milton Reduxed

@Richard, To me it's the epitome of homey 80s family sci-fi. Not my first choice, but I'd put it in the top half of this list

Clarence Newman

I think the treatment October gets offends you. Polls that last 9 days. Spoilers. Cassie liking 20 posts in a row, then skipping yours before dropping 20 more. I mean, that's gotta hurt.

Richard Maurer

Those things are annoying. You are truly offensive.

Mark White

You guys 😂😂😂

Richard Maurer

I’m just going to say it. I am. In fact, a accountant. ;-)

Above Average Dave

Also, based on an Elmore Leonard novel, so guaranteed goodness.

Larry Darrell

Umm… that’s “an” accountant. That’s all. ;-)

Richard Maurer

Larry - My phone says either one is correct. No wonder someone blocked you. ;-)

Larry Darrell

Well you may need to update your phone then, because it sounds like it’s still in the 2nd grade.

Richard Maurer

I actually wrote an first, but for some reason a seemed more correct at the time I wrote it. I would change it, but now that you’ve made a big deal about I won’t.

Javier Hernandez

I'll agree that The Accountant and Wonder Woman are good entertaining films but Moonstruck is the best overall production on this list. I hope she takes the time to revisit that one. Maybe she'll see Donnie Brasco on the next "based on a true story" poll. If she's not familiar with the impact of the Cold War on the American psyche the satire of Dr Strangelove might go over her head. Go see The Accountant sequel, it is just as good as the first. Wonder Woman 1984... not so much.

Joe J

I will point out that the 4:02 run time of Justice League is only 15 minutes longer that Lawrence of Arabia run time.

Larry Darrell

You’re testing me right?? It’s “a seem’ed’ more correct” Oh I stepped in it today. :-)

Richard Maurer

Now that was my phone, word police officer Larry. It’s always helpfully changing words to what it thinks I was going to write. If I forgot the ‘ed’ I’d admit it, but I won’t take the blame for my overly “helpful” phone. Now stop correcting my posts before I become the second person to block you.

Larry Darrell

That’s it. I’m done. Scraping it off!! I feel your pain with the phone though. Every time I type “the,” it changes it to “Theresa.” I don’t even know a Theresa!!

Happy Hanukkah

"I am. In fact, a accountant." OMG! I'm so sorry to hear that! How far along are they in developing a cure for this tragic condition?

Richard Maurer

I’m afraid there is is no possibility of a cure for accounting.

Joe J

Good action film. Cassie likes Affleck.

Happy Hanukkah

"Moonstruck is 1987, not 1982." This is *undoubtedly* why it isn't running away with this. Too many people got confused and thought this might be another movie of the same name. :-) Cassie should thus watch it regardless. Justice for Moonstruck!

Happy Hanukkah

I guess we'll have to turn to the mystical arts. Clarence, Mark, Larry, and I will stand around you in a pentagram* and ritualistically chant: "There is no accounting for Richard!" * Hey, I'm not an accountant! [ADDED: RM, thanks for your help.]

Dean Holt

Richard ok I’ll take that one back, but I just didn’t really like it tbh.

Kit Taylor

One of my all-time favorite movies. Character building, action, chemistry, and a touching ending.

Clayton David-Thomas

I can't believe thats the lowest voted haha best rom com for my money

Richard Maurer

Took away my vote for Wonder Woman last night - too close to The Accountant. Gave that vote to Dr. Strangelove. Now voting for (in order) The Accountant, Jackie Brown. Dr. Strangelove.

Clarence Newman

The only comic book movie I want to see is Morbus Gravis. I believe Druuna to be a more well-rounded character than Wonder Woman.

Richard Maurer

Dean - Not a problem, just a difference of opinion.

Bryan Erickson

The Accountant and Wonder Woman are good fun….but man, I’ve been wanting Cassie to watch Dr Strangelove for a while. Hope she gets to it soon 🙏

Mark White

Once again Clarence you expect to much from me! I had to look Druuna up! And I agree, she is more..ummm… well-rounded than Wonder Woman. 😳😆

Chitown Livingston

I can't vote... too tough... Moonstruck, Donnie Brasco, or Dr Strangelove!

Chris Tucker

I just watched the trailer for Brasco; I like it. Also I saw Ebert gave it 3.5/4 stars.

Jack

It’s gonna either be The Accountant or Wonder Woman. I don’t care about either, but I feel like WW will get watched regardless eventually so I’m throwing a vote to The Accountant to get rid of it taking votes from something I like in the future.

Stephen Dias

Many good movies. I'm in the mood for a little lighthearted fun, so "Short Circuit."

Rick Williams

Maybe but Cassie is wanting g to watch Accountant.

Happy Hanukkah

Christian Wolff is rubbing his temples in actual pain. :-)

Tyler Foster

Cassie, I suspect you're just going to have the bite the bullet and make Moonstruck a Popcorn Pick of the Month. I hope you do someday, you won't regret it. (It's not really Christmas-y, but it is technically set around Christmas.)

Tyler Foster

It's pretty much a lost cause but I would love for any Jackie Brown watch to be paired with Out of Sight.

Mark Vaderr

I'm all in on "Doctor Strangelove", but would also be fine with "Jackie Brown" & "Short Circuit". "Wonder Woman" should not count, because more likely Cassie will already watch it. What is the big deal about "The Accountant"? How many of these movies advance to a final poll?

Mark Vaderr

Unfortunately, it also has Ben Affleck. A sub-par actor.

Mark Vaderr

Wonder Woman is a good movie, but critics and people gave it far more salivating love than it deserved. One critic posted in their review of it, "Wonder Woman Saves the Genre". What genre? Comic Book movies, because during that time period, Marvel was doing just fine. Critics love to pile on the artificial love just because the main character is a woman. They did the same thing with the crap fest that was the all-female Ghostbusters movie.

Mark Vaderr

I disagree. It's all about the reactor(s). Some are good at it, some are not.

Cole Jennett

Final polls tend to only happen when there’s an A and a B poll.

Clay F

I voted Jackie Brown but based on current results, predict will finish in 5th, 6th, or 7th place.

Clay F

Currently a respectable 3rd place.

Clay F

Saying that she will react to Wonder Woman (2017) eventually anyway even if Wonder Woman loses the poll = false hope. Now is the time to vote (jump on) Wonder Woman (2017) while it's hot. I mean now. Immediately. If loses this poll, Cassie may never (I mean never) react to Wonder Woman (2017), or could be years. Have you paid attention to the massive number of movies talked about as likely reaction and/or ranked high at Popcorn Requests -- and still no reaction over the years of the channel? She has so much to react to. Unless you absolutely love The Accountant, now is the time to vote Wonder Woman (2017).

Clay F

Cassie would like Wonder Woman better than The Accountant. I like The Accountant barely = convoluted confusing story. "The Accountant writes off a committed performance from Ben Affleck, leaving viewers with a scattershot action thriller beset by an array of ill-advised deductions." Wonder Woman (2017) much better. Gal Gadot is stunning. Cassie likes Chris Pine. Wonder Woman (2017) = "an action film, a romantic comedy and a coming-of-age story and a period piece and a war movie all in one. Above all, it’s a hopeful story about humanity." I am not big on superhero movies but very much like Wonder Woman (2017) and Cassie will too. Donnie Brasco (another top choice for me) and Moonstruck currently tied for last place. Looks like Donnie Brasco will never win a poll. Puzzling considering how good the movie and fascinating the true story, and the stellar performances by Johnny Depp and Al Pacino. I also like the performance by Anne Heche.

Clay F

Convoluted confusing story. Wonder Woman (2017) much better. Gal Gadot is stunning. Cassie likes Chris Piine.

Clay F

Th Accountant may never see another poll. Kill it now.

Clay F

Cassie will find Gal Gadot stunning and she loves Chris Pine. Cassie woul d like Wonder Woman better than The Accountant.

Clay F

Jackie Brown + Out of Sight = excellent combo.

Clay F

If Wonder Woman doesn't win this poll, she may never react to Wonder Woman, or could be years. Too unpredictable.

Jens Kristensen

Okay, I have to state that my primary pick is "Short Circuit"... "Dr. Strangelove" and "Jackie Brown" too... and that's for cinematic value... but I do really love "Short Circuit"...

RP

Aawwh Wonderwoman is so good ,shame it’s gonna get edged out here. I know PiB would love it,. Hopefully soon it comes around. 🍻

Kawaii Leonard

Stunning isn't really the #1 thing I look for in an actress. Acting, however, she seems allergic to.

Mark White

Maybe Clay, but my gut feeling is Cassie will watch the top 2. Although saying that, scheduling due to GoT is becoming a little tighter than it use to be.

ElmSt Reactions

Yeah but variety is good and im not watching reactors that are terrible at doing it lol

Story Archer

@Clay F Initially, I was dead set against her casting and that turned out to be as wrong as I've ever been. Some people consider it fashionable to crap on her acting, but the truth is she emotes on screen as good or better than anyone I've ever seen. Plus, if you think about it, we're talking about a woman who was a literal beauty queen, combat instructor and mother to four girls... she IS Wonder Woman. I fell completely in love with her in that film and don't hold the dumpster fire that was 1984 against her in the slightest - it wasn't her script.

Story Archer

To be fair, she'll be getting around to Wonder Woman as she goes through her DCU watch-through anyway, right?

LukeG84

I voted for Short Circuit and The Accountant. While I think Cassie would enjoy Short Circuit more, I think she’ll enjoy The Accountant if it wins.

LukeG84

I hope Cassie & Carly decide to watch Woman Woman after BvS, but given how James Gunn has retconned the Synderverse, I wonder if it’s worth them watching it, or skipping straight to Zack Snyder's Justice League before starting the new DCU? 🤔 Of course I would love for Cassie & Carly to watch everything: - Man Of Steel (2013) ✅ - Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice (2016) ✅ - Suicide Squad (2016) - Wonder Woman (2017) - Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021) - Aquaman (2018) - Shazam! (2019) - Birds Of Prey: And The Fantabulous Emancipation Of One Harley Quinn (2020) - Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) - The Suicide Squad (2021) - Peacemaker Season One (2022) - Black Adam (2022) - Shazam! Fury Of The Gods (2023) - The Flash (2023) - Blue Beetle (2023) - Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom (2023)

Joe J

Okay...I'm assuming this poll is not running for 8 more days (haha). I say just watch the Top 3, why not?

Gray

looking at 3rd place right now i agree with you :D

Jennifer Medicus

I mean I watched The Accountant but can't remember all that much of it. Gal is just freaking gorgeous.

Richard Maurer

It’s barely changed any for at least a day, end it now.

Richard Maurer

She wasn’t bad in Wonder Woman. Can’t say that about anything else I’ve seen her in, including Wonder Woman 1984.

MikeLL

I added a vote to The Accountant, because it's a good movie and I wouldn't mind at all if it won.

Joe J

PIB team - when will the poll actually end?

Cole Jennett

I think it’s safe to rule out anything after Justice League. Maybe The Suicide Squad…but as much as I like Peacemaker, I’d say it has as much chance of making the channel as The Boys😂

Cole Jennett

I’d like to think so, but she has never made any mention of it when talking about what she may or may not watch after BvS

Story Archer

With WW being introduced in BvS, it would be hard for her to skip that... and you have to figure she's going to jump at Aquaman and Snyder's JL as well. We just need to keep her away from 1984!

Cole Jennett

I was trying to avoid mentioning that introduction in BvS

Story Archer

That's fair, but if you're trying to avoid mentioning it for spoiler reasons, she's already seen it, we just haven't gotten it yet. At least, I'm assuming that's the case because it was included in the latest schedule for the upcoming week. If I'm wrong and it doesn't work that way, somebody please let me know.

kaiielle

It now reflects 11 hours left at the time of me posting this reply.

McShades

On my screen it shows the time left under the poll choices.

Clay F

There is no guarantee she will ever watch Wonder Woman (2017), or could be years.

Clay F

Currently, only difference of 21 votes between the top two.

Tara ✨💫

I'm still gobsmacked that Cassie has not seen the John Hughes classic Sixteen Candles

K, Zachary

All these movies would be good for her to react to. I don't think one movie stands out more than another, like she would like that one or she would like this one better. Everytime I think I have any woman figured out they totally surprise me. Weather it be my gf Eva or one my sisters or my Mom or Eva sisters or her Mom they totally say things that leave me confused. Sixteen Candles is a movie every girl should see It's a 80's classic. Wonder Woman was a really good movie. So was the Accountant. So was Jackie Brown. Classic Tarantino there. She really can't go wrong with any of these.

Ignis Rændl

✅ #All of the Above 😉 i voted Wonder Woman with Cassie and Carly in mind, but the Accountant is a must watch too.

Richard Maurer

Short Circuit did better than Jackie Brown? SMH.

OddThomas

I saw The Accountant once. I have no memory of it. Not sure why it seems to have such a following, but I'll give it another go.

Kit Taylor

OMG this is the year of Cassie for me. Game Of Thrones, Girl With the Dragon Tattoo AND The Accountant. All movies/shows in my top 20 all time. Holy moly. Cassie I'm sure you get these requests all the time, but I'm a professional pianist and songwriter. If you ever have a need for music or want to collab. on something I'd be honored. Keep up the good work! https://www.youtube.com/@KitTaylorOfficial

Dean Holt

Wow there’s a turn up. Something I wanted to win actually won 😂😂. Please don’t leave it too long before you watch the sequel. Obviously not going to say why but I actually really enjoyed just as much but it’s a bit more of fun action movie.

Dean Holt

It actually finished 4th lol. Not sure how it holds up tbh because I think last time I watched it I was probably about 14/15 years old and that was I very long time ago 😂😂 in 1991 or 92 that’s about 15 years ago right lol.

Clay F

I watched Short Ciruit on VHS in 1987 and didn't really like it. My wife at the time liked it. I remember making fun of it but then noticed my wife getting into (enjoying) the movie, so I toned down my condescension. Jackie Brown is 10X better than Short Circuit.

Dork Diggler

Both are good, but Jackie Brown is top shelf. Maybe people are unaware of the cast and depth of the movie.

Richard Maurer

Agree with you about Jackie Brown. Short Circuit? Not a fan.

Mark White

Richard, pleased for you, “The Accountant” won.

Richard Maurer

Thanks Mark. I’ll be interested to see Cassie’s take on it.

Stephen Dias

Today, I was walking through Barnes & Noble, the one remaining chain bookstore in the area, and I found a copy of "The Accountant" for $5. I've never seen it before; it looks like there's a sequel. Anyway, I now have the movie in my hot little hands.

Stephen Dias

“Short Circuit” is really goofy mindless fun, IMO. I have not seen “Jackie Brown,” but will probably appreciate it. What a cast!

Richard Maurer

Stephen - “Short Circuit is really goofy mindless fun”. I would have left fun off the end but otherwise agree :-)

Clarence Newman

Just doing a sanity check, Richard. I’m not unmindful of the seriousness of your original post up on the SBNTS poll thread, so if you’re response (“you posted on the wrong thread”) was serious, let me know and I’ll delete my Liar Liar joke. The thread had started to lighten up and I was responding to Bob’s little joke about CR, mainly because I think it illustrates how to disagree in the RIGHT way on here (we do it all the time). Just checking though, so let me know. I know you’ve taken some unnecessary flak lately.

Richard Maurer

Clarence - I literally meant meant your post is under the wrong post. Bob’s WFI comment is on Trevor Woodburns post, below the one you posted your comment. Read the comments above yours (like I just did to make sure I wasn’t wrong), it’s in the wrong place brother.

Richard Maurer

Never mind I just read it again. I thought you meant to put under the thread below. Carry on, ignore me too much going on yesterday

Clarence Newman

Well hot damn, I didn’t even notice those comments. I was responding to the one JP Bob put on your post. Ok, good. I have no problem besting him twice. As you were.

Richard Maurer

No problem. By the way, I wonder what I said to get Milton’s dander up. He’s been coming at me way too much lately. We haven’t really ever been “friends” but now he takes every opportunity to take jabs at me. It’s a one-sided war, I don’t even know or really care, what the problem is, but if he keeps it up I’m going to flat out ask him what his problem is.

Clarence Newman

Did Milton Reduxed used to be Milton William Burray? Or is it a new guy? Either way, he's always been a bit blunt. I think those conversations up there have turned out okay. Quite a bit of support from regular patrons for the "will you guys just let us talk?" POV. Cole's post shows it was heard. I do think he's trying to do the right thing, and he's only been a mod for a couple of weeks so we need to give him some leeway. I don't necessarily think that's the case for *all* the mods. If you feel the need to pull Milton up on his sniping, then go for it. I always think your pushbacks are quite reserved anyway.

Clarence Newman

By the way....I just re-read that message from Milton and I'm not sure he's having a dig at you at all. I think he's making a tongue-in-cheek comment about how several patrons had been calling YOU names, but, for some reason, the mods put THAT down to friendly banter. Therefore, he's agreeing with you about the double standards. I think you may have done Milt dirty on this occasion because you'd been dealing with genuine assaults for the previous couple of days and were kind of expecting it. It would help to have a second post from Milt in that thread to either confirm or deny, but without it, that's my conclusion. You're too sensitive, that's what it is.

Richard Maurer

I might think that too, if he hadn’t made other posts egging on people who were coming at me. Saying things like “go get him” and adding laughing emojis. Don’t worry, you know I won’t be baited into making comments that will get me blocked or even my post taken down.
