Mark Vaderr

I'm watching from work, so I cannot comment on Youtube. But I'm watching!

Katie Sivak

Watch Sherlock Holmes with RDH

Anthony Carlson

Good luck everyone! I didn’t submit one this time so maybe thanks to me, you might win! 😂

Vlad D

Hello. Were these the pics for October or for November. On the screen it said November's submitions

Chris Thom

I forget who suggest Nine Months most recently...but you definitely called it. Congrats. Thinking Katie or Rosario or Catherine maybe? Had a feeling you'd be on the money this November.

Chris Thom

I just remembered today. Only six days too late. Lol

David Collins

I wouldn't complain at all. Richard Gere is horribly underserved on the channel, Sean Connery demands attention every time he's on screen and Julia Ormond is an angel. And Ben Cross is delightfully despicable. Nothing not to like there.

Chris Thom

The pick is usually the first week of the month, of all the submissions entered in the previous month.

Cole Jennett

Katie pushed it the hardest that I’m aware of

Chris Thom

Yeah I just saw her comment on YTube. Apparently she sent her the DVD a while ago. So she should have it somewhere in the collection.

Chris Thom

Thought that was the one with Shannon Sossamon?

Stephen Dias

Alas, I was in a meeting, so missed this live stream. I'm not familiar with the chosen movie, but I'm game!

Vlad D

Thank you

Clay F

Unavailable to stream on a major service. Thus, most of us wouldn't watch the full reaction.

Cole Jennett

I don’t think a lot of people will be but it’s worth a watch.

Clay F

Brent Petty

On her YT page, Train to Busan is not on there at all. Can someone correct this? Thanks!

Above Average Dave

It's good to see that my Pick-A-Flick luck is identical to my PowerBall luck. There's a lot to be said for consistency! However, since this is a G-Rated channel, I won't say it. 😁

Coleton B.

Hello, Brent! Sorry, but at this time Train to Busan is in Copyright limbo! We're hoping to get it back as soon as possible!

Brent Petty

NOOO! Why is it always the good ones? A few months ago it was No Country, now this. Hope they are able to get this one back too. Thanks for the quick reply!

Cole Jennett

I reserved a copy at my library. Hopefully it will become available around the time she watches it

Chris Thom

Ohhhh YES. That's it. With um....Joker, Brokeback. Blanking on his name atm. RIP.

Michael West

This is a great movie. Very moving.

crazyivan

Has she watched any James Garner movies yet?

fastecp1

Congratulations, Odd Thomas. Testament of Youth is a movie I have never even heard of, which is very unusual for me. I'm looking forward to something new.

Joe J

I think MI 8 is in our immediate future.

crazyivan

d'OH! I watched that reaction with her....

Samual

I miss out on this. I wanted to put in " Real Genius will with Val Kramer" the movie " the traveler" for hollween mounth next year also a val Kramer movie. The movie creeped me out the first time I saw it.

2-Can

Congrats OT. I hadn’t heard of this before. Looking at the picture above, my first thought was ‘is that Ramsay Bolton???’, but on checking the IMDB entry I see that it has another GoT cast member - Cassie will be pleased.

Clay F

I've never watched a Tom Cruise "Mission Impossible" movie -- maybe a little of the first. They generally get decent/good reviews. Loved Mission Impossible TV show as kid (age 6 in 1969). The one show my parents would let me stay up after bedtime on a school night to watch. My parents were young in their mid-20s.

Old As Dirt Bert

Wow, thanks for the analysis Clay. It's neat to see some of the picks categorized with more detail.

Richard Maurer

Clay - If you watch the first one you’ll have basically seen them all.

RobertNDouglass

That would actually be Val KILMER. I L M, not R A M. RIP.

Ian A

Congrats Odd, can't believe you didn't pick the Odd Thomas movie.

Cole Jennett

Nah, they are all generally pretty good except 2. Didn’t love the last 2 as much as 3-6

Cole Jennett

What, no one else picked People Like Us (2012)?!😂

Mojo One Thousand

Wasn't able to catch this live. A piece of advice, check to see if the movie not been seen prior to submitting... otherwise the chance may be lost. There were a couple movies in the list as Cassie scrolled that I am sure have been seen.

Clarence Newman

I don’t think anyone likes PaF more than Cassie. She seems to relish the opportunity to watch the weird and the wonderful. This one has Jon Snow in it, which is a big bonus for her, and because it’s fairly new, it’ll hopefully get a YT edit. I’ve never seen it, but it looks like a good choice.

Clay F

Two I saw on the list she has seen are Hell or Highwater (2016) and Darkest Hour (2017).

Clay F

I like both you mentioned. I forgot she had seen August Rush.

Just Plain Bob

They’re boring. World in danger, only Ethan Hunt and his team can save everyone, they get blamed instead of praised, chases/explosions/CGI ensues, day is saved, rinse and repeat ad nauseum. The last one was so boring I quit halfway thru and have never revisited. I believe if you showed the average fan of the franchise the fourth entry (or 5th, 6th, etc) they wouldn’t even realize they’d seen it before.

Mike Lemon

We've already been told that rule doesn't matter by one of the mods.

Mojo One Thousand

I worded that a little poorly... they have to choose a different one Not lose the opportunity to choose, just the original choice of movie. It has happened at least once. But it still in the interest of the winner and the PIB clan that the movie is unseen to avoid any hassles.

Richard Maurer

Bob - that’s what got me, the sameness. I have a good memory but after watching the first four I had a hard time remembering which things happened in which movie, because it’s basically just the same plot over and over again.

Christian Becker

Great effort, Clay! Thx. So, I see I got a co-supporter for The Dish :-) Nice. Need to drum up more support ;-) for that one. And The Court Jester!

Clarence Newman

JP Bob and Richard. How can you criticise the "World in danger, only this/these guys can save it, blamed instead of praised, day is saved, everyone's happy" trope? I LOVED that shit on Scooby Doo!

Clarence Newman

I will say this, though. The ideal length of any franchise for me is 3 films. You can maybe stretch to 4 if it's that good, maybe 6 if it's the Rockys, but if you get beyond 7, you should be working on something else instead.

Richard Maurer

Clarence - I think most movie series should consist of one movie, and some of them less than that.

Clarence Newman

See, this is why we don't let you in our planning meetings.

Joe J

Not many would have seen it, I can't see a YT edit for this one. Of all the PAF submissions, I counted only around (17) films I would have any interest in seeing...this is not one of them, lol.

Richard Maurer

Never wanted to be in your planning meetings. Can’t think of a bigger waste of time.

Clarence Newman

Too bad. At the last meeting, I proposed Horror of Dracula for the October schedule, but there was no one there to back me up.

Richard Maurer

That’s because there’s no one in those planning meetings except yourself.

Joe J

I really think Cassie could trust us with all programming decisions...what could possiblity go wrong, lol.

Richard Maurer

That’s kind of the point of PaF. It’s basically Cassie doing a reaction for an audience of a handful of people, in some cases it might end up being a single person.

Clarence Newman

That would be dangerous. I have at least two personalities, so I could suggest Rhinestone and second my own recommendation. Sounds like heaven to me. ("No it doesn't." "Shut up.")

Joe J

Of course Richard, but I secretly hope for something I can enjoy, I'm sure you do the same. This month was slim pickens IMO.

Clarence Newman

That's actually the main frustration for me, Joe. I know my pick will probably not win, but I always hope the winner will have picked something off my list. Never happened yet.

OddThomas

Woo hoo I won! Thanks Cassie, I hope you enjoy it!

Clay F

congrats

Clay F

Joe -- wow, 17 out of 261 -- that ain't much. My list of films off the PAF entries each month I would like to win/watch is much greater than 17. I did notice that October was a little slimmer pickings for me. Clarence, we are less than a year into this. In the Name of the Father was a big win off my list. I mean big. In the Name of the Father was in the realm of my personal PAF material. 1 in 7 chance winning if remain patron 3 yrs and participate every month? The number of patrons participating has dropped. The number in October was 261. Assuming as a basis for calculation that the number of PAF entries each month over the next 3 years is mid-200s, then you have about a 1 in 7 chance of winning if you participate every month the next 3 years. Statisticians may disagree w/my calcs. For me, a key is I am happy if a fellow patron wins and I really like their movie submitted.

Joe J

Cassie is doing an edit for "In the Name of the Father", so she must feel the views will justify the edit costs.

Richard Maurer

Joe - if you mean November, sure, but I’ve come to expect that after October.

Richard Maurer

Clarence I don’t even expect it to be something off my list, I’d settle for something I was mildly interested in watching.

Cole Jennett

I like the choice. It’s just the type of movie that would never get a reaction normally.

Clay F

I am happy that Testament of Youth won. Genre mix “romance/war” is one of my favorites, and I remember liking the movie. I like a period drama – Biography, History, Drama, War. The cast is splendid = Kit Harrington, Taron Egerton (great actor), Dominic West (of Wire fame), Emily Watson (awesome), etc. The female (Alicia Vikander) in the romance is the excellent Swedish actress who was “Ava” in Ex Machina. “Testament of Youth is well-acted and beautifully filmed, adding up to an enriching if not adventurous experience for fans of British period dramas.”

Clay F

In addition to this movie, some other October PAF entries I wanted to win are below. There are additional entries not listed below I would have liked. -A History of Violence (2005) (awesome - a top movie for me) -Capote (2005) (my entry) -Children of Men (2006) (great movie – Cassie would be invested. No. 4 at PR) -Coherence (2013) -Thunderheart (1992) (PAF material personally – my favorite Val Kilmer movie) -Escape from NY (1981) (I have a lot of nostalgia) -Gone With the Wind (1939) -Indictment: The McMartin Trial (1995) -Invictus (2009) (considered for my PAF entry) -Jackie Brown (1997) (my 2nd favorite Tarantino film after Pulp Fiction) -Michael Clayton (2007) -The Night of the Hunter (1955) (on my watchlist) -Out of Sight (1998) (PAF material for me personally) -Paper Moon (1973) -Mulholland Drive (2001) (R.I.P. David Lynch – Lynch poll would have been good) -School Ties (1992) -People Like Us (2012) -Road to Perdition (2002) (stunning) -Rob Roy (1995) (saw in theater when released) -Steve Jobs (2015) (Michael Fassbender, Kate Winslet, Seth Rogen, Jeff Daniels) -The Blues Brothers (1980) (No. 2 at Popcorn Requests) -The Cooler (2003) (love this movie) -The Illusionist (2006) (PAF material for me personally) -Terms of Endearment (1983) -The Assassination of Jesse James (2007) -The Cider House Rules (1999) -The Dish (2000) -Crash (2004) -Split (2016) -The Hurricane (1999) -The English Patient (1996) (everybody should watch at least once) -The World’s Fastest Indian (2005) (on my watchlist) -Under Siege (1992) (the best Seagal movie) -Your Name (2016) (see it mentioned a lot, but unsure).

Clay F

Rocky 2 is rare sequel that I like. Rocky 4 and Rocky 5 are bad.

Clarence Newman

Can't agree with those numbers, Clay. They would eventually be accurate if the entries diminished month after month, but for the odds to EVER be 1 in 7, there would have to be just 7 entries in a given month. Just because you stay a patron for 3 years and enter every month, the odds are never going to be anything but 1 in how ever many entrants are up against you. Our best chance, as many of us have tried to sneakily tell Cassie, is to stop reminding folks to put in their entry. That way, my kernel will have a decent shot and Rhinestone will finally get the reaction it deserves.

Clarence Newman

5 is bad, Clay, no doubt about it. 4 wasn't bad, it just looks overly glossy and tubthumpy now. Strangely enough, my favourite these days is Rocky Balboa (2006).

Clarence Newman

Thomas. I feel the need to touch you and see if you're real. Such things do not happen to us regular folk. You are truly Chosen.

Mike Lemon

That once was for a screw up on Cassie's part (Letterboxd was wrong if I remember right). We were told that even if it is 100% known she watched it, that rule doesn't matter.

Cole Jennett

You mean Alicia Vikander, you listed her character name by accident

Nolofinwe

UGH ! another fuckin winner

Nolofinwe

Thunder hearts an excellent movie so we'll never see it. The hurricane is a lie Ruben Carter murdered that guy with Artis .

Clay F

Thanks Cole. I did. I edited to correct.

Just Plain Bob

Guillermo del Toro’s version of Frankenstein premiered on Netflix today and I loved it. He told the classic tale with reverence for the core story while adding touches of his own. Charles Dance was magnificent (as always) as Victor Frankenstein’s father, Oscar Isaac was pitch perfect as Victor and Jacob Elordi was the best monster since Boris Karloff. The sets and costuming appeared very authentic to my untrained eye, with the Frankenstein estate being lavish, beautiful and perfectly shot. The ship set is also magnificent, particularly the captain’s quarters, and Victor’s lab is the closest I’ve seen to what I imagined when reading the book. The entire production features some of the best cinematography I’ve seen in years (evidence of del Toro’s painterly eye), featuring both warm and cold color palettes to great effect. Some of the imagery captured is reminiscent of Bernie Wrightson’s legendary work when he drew the story back in the 70s yet, at the same time, I could not point to a single frame that mimics Wrightson’s work. It’s simply evocative, in a manner I can’t verbalize, of Wrightson’s work. If del Toro didn’t have copies of his work at hand during production, I’d be surprised. Meanwhile, even with all the gorgeous imagery on display, del Toro once again demonstrates his ability to tell a story simply while imbuing it with emotion and weight. Netflix and critics will undoubtedly refer to it as a horror film and it definitely tells a horrific story. But it’s really a gothic romance, with all the melodrama and tragedy that implies. Great film by a master at the top of his game.

Richard Maurer

Where is this list at? Looked for it but couldn’t find it.

Clay F

Clarence -- you make a good point but depends on how you look at. Your point makes sense if you treat the odds as re-setting each month, which they do. But on the flip side, you can look at the cummulative effect of participating over time. If I participate 1 month over the next 36 months, my odds are plainly 1/261. If I participate every month over the next 36 months, you are saying my odds are the same (as long as the patron who wins each month is replaced with a new participant to maintain the number of partcipants at 261). But at 36 months, my odds can be characterized as 36/261 = 1/7 (however incorrectly that might be). I did say statisticians may disagree. That's because PAF selection is an independent event, and the PAF selection has no "memory" of previous results. So you are saying the patron who plays once has the some odds to win as the patron who plays 36 times or 100 times. However, if assume the pool decreases by one each time, i.e., 261 1st month, 260 2nd month, 259 3rd month, etc. b/c the rules are a patron can only win once, then a patron who plays 100 times would have 1/161 chance to win the 100th time. But that's b/c of the size of the pool changing, not because of any pseudo cummulative effect.

Clay F

Your comments help me confirm that I will watch it.

Coleton B.

Would you mind kindly censoring your language? It would be much appreciated

Chris Thom

Was waiting for it to load last night, but I fell asleep before it happened. Not sure if they're still doing midnight premieres or not?

Richard Maurer

Didn’t know that dropped today, probably won’t get a chance to watch it till next week. Looking forward to it though.

Chris Thom

Such great performances in Steve Jobs. Keep forgetting about that one. Would be a good one for the channel.

Chris Thom

Is it considered a war movie? Or is it mostly about the before and after?

Chris Thom

Yeah that's what I thought won at first. I didn't know there was a movie of it, but I vaguely remember the book.

Chris Thom

It's his personal list of past and future pick a flick entries.

Cole Jennett

The rule matters in the sense that we don’t want people to pick something that is known to have been seen, just to be a pain in the butt. But common decency allows them a second chance if they don’t realize she has already seen the movie they had chosen. As Cassie is a decent person, that’s how she has chosen to handle it.

Chris Thom

Ohhh that's why she was mentioning Jon Snow. Didn't realize that was Kit Harrington in the poster.

Clarence Newman

I like the optimism, Clay. I’ll go with it.

Just Plain Bob

PS to original post: After writing my original post, I did a little research and confirmed that del Toro was heavily influenced by Wrightson’s work. Del Toro apparently instructed the creature designer to use Wrightson’s drawings of the monster as a reference when designing the creature for his film. As a fan of Wrightson’s art, I can’t think of any better artist from which to draw inspiration. For anyone that’s unfamiliar with Wrightson’s work, here’s a link to some of his sketches of Frankenstein’s monster (full disclosure: his version was published in 1983, not the late 70s as I previously stated/thought): https://www.berniewrightson.com/galleries/frankenstein/

Joshua s. Jackson

I much rather the movie "Odd Thomas" got picked.

Mike Lemon

There you go, confirmation of exactly what I said from the mod mentioned.

Richard Maurer

The only way that your odds could improve is if there were a fixed number of participants, with one being removed each month. But in reality there a number of factors, how many actually make a pick per month, new patrons joining PaF, patrons leaving PiB, patrons who only pick sometimes, etc, etc, that it’s impossible to make any long term odds.

Clarence Newman

It's ironic really, that us lifers never get a win, because we could legitimately be described as "The Long Term Odds".

Chris Thom

Just finished it. It was quite good. Haven't seen any Frankenstein movies in a long time, and forgot what a sympathetic character he was. Can't believe I never made the connection between Frankenstein's monster and The Hulk before, but the inspiration seemed obvious here. To modern zombies, too. Solid art-direction. Liked the way Del Toro made the movie feel specific to the time and place, but with enough flair to make it fantastical as well. Think I preferred the new Nosferatu to this, but definitely a fun movie. But also sadder than I expected for some reason.

Chris Thom

Damn that's going to be a five hour movie, isn't it? By released, do you mean in theaters, or just on DVD?

Richard Maurer

Theater’s first. I would assume streaming later.

Just Plain Bob

The sadness was one of del Toro’s changes. If you read the book, the creature is far less of a sympathetic character, extorting Victor with the threat of violence and murdering women and children. Re: the Hulk, I used to read the comics and watch the cartoon before school. I never made the connection to Frankenstein’s monster until I read an interview with Stan Lee. The Hulk was originally grey, meant to represent dead flesh, but comic book printers at the time were iffy and it didn’t show up well. So they changed him to green. In that same interview, Lee stated that the character was based on Mary Shelley’s creation, something I don’t think I’d have ever realized on my own.

Chris Thom

Makes me curious of how a Snyder Cut of Justice League would've done at the box office. Think Titanic and Return of the King were the longest movies I ever saw at the theater.

Clarence Newman

Great idea. We’re overdue a Cannonball Omnibus.

Richard Maurer

Cannonball Omnibus: all the boredom, twice the cringe

Mike Lemon

Wasn't that already released, like years ago? I've watched it. I looked it up. I watched "The Whole Bloody Affair", a fan edit that has the extra footage and color.

Richard Maurer

Yeah, some of it was released outside the US

Björn Karlsson

Btw Richard 😀 The sequel to Sisu will have premiere in the US 21st of November 😁😁😁

Nolofinwe

ok dad. Contact Game of Thrones I think they may have crossed the line a Jott

Cole Jennett

I’d say if Cassie doesn’t use the language we can respect her by doing the same on her channel.

Cole Jennett

How long have you been around now Clarence? I only remember you the last year or so, which would hardly constitute referring to yourself as a lifer?😂

Doc Larry/old geezer

To my fellow Popcorn in Bed enthusiasts, I just watched Frankenstein (2025) on Netflix — directed and written by the brilliant Guillermo del Toro, based on Mary Shelley’s timeless novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. It stars Oscar Isaac as Victor Frankenstein and Jacob Elordi as the Creature, and it premiered on November 7, 2025. It’s an absolute masterpiece — visually stunning, emotionally rich, and a perfect blend of del Toro’s gothic artistry and heartfelt storytelling. I’m only disappointed that I’ll have to wait until next year to see Cassie’s reaction to it. her insights and emotional takes make every viewing even more enjoyable.) It’s a bit odd for a horror film to drop right after Halloween, but movies come when they come — just like Miracle on 34th Street (1947), which was famously released in June, well before Christmas season. (That classic, directed by George Seaton and starring Maureen O’Hara, John Payne, and Edmund Gwenn as Kris Kringle, still holds up beautifully.)

Chris Thom

Jacob Elordi and Mia Goth were the standouts for me. They did a fantastic job. Jacob specifically I thought might be a bit too young for the role perhaps, but he nailed it.

Chris Thom

Bob, do you feel like Guillermo left it open for a sequel? I've seen photos of his house and he has a very large Bride of Frankenstein figure in his living room. I never saw those original Universal sequels so I don't know that story at all.

Just Plain Bob

In the book, the creature extorts Victor into making him a bride. This was addressed in The Bride of Frankenstein by Universal Studios. Victor destroyed his new creation before reanimating it (in the book). I feel like it was addressed in this movie pretty well, although his version obviously deviated from both the book and the original Universal films. I’d be very surprised if he revisited this world. I would NOT be surprised if blood sucking studio execs decided to exploit the franchise with a follow up directed by some hack. Personally, now that he’s done his two dream projects (Pinocchio and Frankenstein), I’m hoping that del Toro re-focuses on either bringing us a third Hellboy (there’ve been rumors) or brings “At the Mountains of Madness” to the big screen. I’ve heard him talk about his ideas for ATMOM and seen his test footage and think he may be the only filmmaker alive today that could do Lovecraft’s story justice. Here’s the test footage if you’re interested: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iBA6TThb1yI&pp=ygUbYXQgdGhlIG1vdW50YWlucyBvZiBtYWRuZXNz

Richard Maurer

Clarence was here when the first acorn grew. Show him some respect.

Richard Maurer

Actually, Clarence hasn’t been here that long, it just seems that way.

Cole Jennett

Yeah I get the feeling he would have been tough to miss, lol. It’s not like he was just lurking for two years, ha ha. I think you have been here as long as I have been Richard.

Coleton B.

Del Toro's Frankenstein truly is exceptional!! An incredible watch!

Chris Thom

Guillermo always has some beautiful set design in his movies. Want to watch some behind the scenes stuff to see if any of the locations were real. Some of theme looked very convincing.

Sean

Just as a change of pace, for January, how about a medieval epic from 1954, The Black Shield of Falworth, starring Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh. And just to set the record straight, it is NOT the film in which Tony so infamously proclaimed in his muddled Bronx drawl, "Yonda lies da castle of my fadda."

Sean

January is the month of Sherlock's birthday, when the Baker Street Irregulars celebrate, meeting in NYC from all over the world. Cassie cd devote the whole month to watching the best of the over 200 Holmes films. I don't see the RDJ version making the cut, however.

Byrd N. Hand

*4 hours. I've been holding out for the single-film cut for like 20 years now. It better also get a physical media release. 🤞

Clarence Newman

One does not have to have arrived when Pontius was a pilot to be a lifer, Cole. In my case, it refers more to the fact that Cassie isn’t getting rid of me any time soon. I’m like that 1% of all known germs Domestos cannot kill. Historically speaking, I became a YT sub in October ‘23 and joined Patreon in June ‘24. A GREAT day for all fans of Cannonball Run!

Mark White

Same Clarence. Rocky 5 is the weak link. But the other sequels are good in their own right. Rocky Balboa for me is excellent, it goes back to that tone and feeling in the first Two. 3/4 are of there time very Eighties, like you say Glossy, but I like that about them. Richard sez 4 is cheesy! Yeah I think he is right! But I like that about it. One of the things I like about the Rocky movies are they are not all the same in tone. They change through the decades, reflecting the time they were made in.

Mark White

This explains a lot about you and me Clarence, we probably watched far too much Scooby doo! 🤪😆

Richard Maurer

Since we’re flexing about when we joined I subbed PiB’s YouTube channel in Dec 2020 and joined her Patreon in May 2021, so I could watch the full reaction to LotR. The plan was to cancel after I finished it, but somehow I forgot………..oh well, it’s been fun. See you around!

Richard Maurer

Scooby Doo is a gateway drug to repetitive plot acceptance. I remember watching SD when it first came out (yes, I’m that old) waiting for them to find a real monster. After about 6 episodes I began to realize this was never going to happen and i was really pissed about it.

Byrd N. Hand

"Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" also recently got blocked. Some have come back ("Sin City," "An Officer and a Gentleman," "No Country for Old Men," "Jurassic World"), some haven't ("The Rainmaker," the first "Mission" Impossible," "Lost Ark," "Crystal Skull") -- at least not yet. I'm guessing they're no longer doing re-edits, as they did with "Mission: Impossible 2," "Sabrina," and "National Lampoon's Vacation" (the original edit of the latter having also eventually come back, so now there are redundantly *2* videos of it over on YT 🤔).

Clarence Newman

So what you're saying is, if Cassie had treated LoTR the way Ames has, you'd be offski.

Richard Maurer

Oh hell yes. I tolerate a lot of things. Disrespecting LotR is not one of them.

Joe J

Maybe Cassie will react to this when available, since she indicated she should spread out horror reactions more.

Joe J

I'm not sure when I joined here tbh. Cassie does have a very active patreon compared to almost all other reactors. Who else can get 500+ comments to a single post, it's crazy.

Richard that would have you joining the YouTube channel before she released a video so you might be a month or two off, but your Patreon join time sounds right. Either way, you predate me. I subscribed in Feb or March 2021 after seeing The Sixth Sense reaction and Patreon just in time to vote for Firefly on a tv poll so October 2021 I’m pretty sure. Coincidentally I held off joining until Natalie Gold finished Game of Thrones and then ditched her for Cassie, ha ha.

YouTube said I joined in Dec 2020. Who am I to argue?

Richard Maurer

Actually, now that I think about it, it was in January after I watched her Shawshank reaction. Why YouTube says Dec I don’t know.

Sure, it's a confirmation if you didn't read or ignore what was written in the thread, particularly the phrase "in a sense the rule matters". So, not a confirmation of anything you said, it is actually closer to what I said. You made the same point twice that the rule doesn't matter. This implies that movies that are seen would be rewatched, which is highly unlikely to be the case. The only time this has happened in the past was when Carly was involved due to her not seeing the movie. The only other thing you included was evidence where a movie marked as unseen was actually already seen, which is the reverse of what is being discussed/advised here - not picking movies that are marked as seen (which doesn't take long to check). Also, no one was talking about the rules as written (that was you). It was about avoiding losing the chosen movie due it being seen already, requiring a different selection to be made. Although the rule isn't enforce as written (which is the part you have correct about), the spirit of the rule still matters. Honouring that spirit is actually in the best interest of all the folks involved, which is what this was all about in the first place.

I would love to see this one a lot of fun Tony Curtis movies are very good operation petticoat I'd like to see him and Cary Grant together and of course the great race Jack Lemon is absolutely brilliant

Sean

All fine Tony Curtis comedies, Nolo. And can't you jus see Cassie say, "Push the button, Max"? Ha-ha!!

Good grief

I'm so confused, I could have sworn I've seen "The whole bloody affair" many years ago. Must have been a fan edit or something and I guess they edited in the Japanse Crazy 88 full color scene. Either way, it's so good when you're mentally prepared for the length of it

John A

Is it good? I have the book still to read, always look forward to the movie after, but I'm a little hesitant after how bad Watchers was compared to the book lmao

John A

And what will an asterisk achieve? We're still gonna know what the word is, and by the way, it's just a word. Try not being so pathetically sensitive, he can say as he pleases and no asterisk is gonna change anything

John A

It's wild how long she's been doing this and how many great movies there still are for her to watch

John A

You lost me at Kit Harrington

John A

Maybe he's talking about Cosmo Kramer's brother

John A

Yeah don't listen to Richard. They aren't some boring art house crap winning best picture, but they're entertaining as hell each one as much as the last. There's a reason they keep doing these, and a reason they keep doing really well

Cassie will love it, she'll cry buckets. For many of us..not so much, lol.
