READ FIRST: Did not realized till afterwards that George's footage is completely frozen after about 10 seconds into the recording so this video will basically be Simone only. Silver lining is the movie is only new to Simone anyways so the more interesting part is unharmed. But since this movie now can't have a YT version edited, we recorded an extra (smaller) movie to make up the difference which is Rat Race. Which should be posted on here around the same time.

Mark Messer

Oh no. Sorry that happened. Ill still watch.

Jimmy Olofsson

Is it just the video of George that's frozen or audio too? Either way I'll still watch, and also yay for Rat Race!

Freddy Cougar

George was frozen in terror throughout the entire movie.

Michael Robayo

It's okay guys. These things happen. Especially in the creative and technical field. But it worked out since Simone hasn't seen it. We will always support you guys and anything you do is masterful.

Clint Murphy

Frozen George is kind of unsettling, so actually works, ha.

Skylar Burns

One of my favorite movies. Sad we don't get George's reaction but shit happens.

DonkyDave

Definitely still watching, sorry that happened to you guys! You run such a smooth operation particularly the volume of content you make

Vindachi

I've had something similar happen before. A good idea is to have a separate back up audio recording just in case

Garin

I know it doesn't feel great, but these things happen. A suggestion for the future is for both Simone and George to record their discord audio (or whatever they're communicating with) to a separate audio file using OBS. That way we'd at least have the commentary, even if the camera footage is lost.

Mastervodo

I'm going into this as if I'm eavesdropping on some person in a restaurant having a loud conversation on their cell phone, and trying to figure out the context.

Red Freckle

I can't imagine a better double feature than Midsummer and Rat Race :D

Thirty Year Old Mulberry Field

Figured this day would come to go along with the solo George reaction to “Lord of War”. Now everything is balanced. Just sucks that it happened to two movies I really enjoy 😭

Andrew

All we got from George was the M in Midsommar. 😂

Dale Smith

Fair enough, things happen. This film unsettles me more than most horrors, something about cult stuff just makes my skin crawl.

Michael Bauer

I think it's fair to say that this movie is about what people are willing to do to / have done to themselves and the people they love for a feeling of being heard and seen - even when that support is just fake, just an echoing. The emptier the space, the stronger the echo. This community which hurts and kills people they pretend to love is empty in just this way - echoing people's feelings and anchoring them in ritual, but entirely devoid of altruism and actual empathy.

Jay

Been looking forward to this reaction for about 18 months now 😂😂 George, unlike most other reactors I've subbed to, yous never miss a post. It's always up on time every time, no glitches. Don't worry about it:)

maikeru

oh man I was excited for both of your reacts but shit happens, I'll enjoy it anyway 🥳

mpd

First video where I agree with everything George says

Kozmo

Sorry George, I know you’re frustrated. Even though you’ve seen it it’s the conversation with Simone that I like more than the individual reaction.

Red Freckle

Yeah I dunno what they use to chat, maybe just discord? There's gotta be a way to save that audio as a backup.

Stephanie Bedworth

Well, balls. This would have to happen to the one reaction I was looking forward to this week. LOL

theycallmekev

I’m just glad it didn’t happen for Weapons or Saw 2 😮‍💨

Dom

It just like you are watching the movie very intently. No moving or blinking or even breathing.

Dom

Both.

Michel Remy Balschun

Not to hear the graphic joke George makes when the look at the love potion drawings and just hearing Simone's "EW" is gold xD

Jasper Collins

I was looking forward to this movie. Unfortunate that I don't get any access to a version as a Cinephile Patreon member.

iFixSAN

Lesson number 1: OBS lies.

Phil Jacke

Well I'm sad because i was looking forward to this and i don't get access to it because there's no edited version but I really like rat race so that's a great surprise. At least it's not a total loss

Saifu

Are there ways to check if the recording is frozen during filming?

Carlos H

To get us in the holiday spirit, Cinebinge goes as far as to have a ghost haunt the reaction. What other channel will do that for you?

Jpsynergy

Going to be an interesting reaction to watch. All good though, shit happens. At least we get two movies now on Sunday which is pretty sweet. Thanks guys.

Dioskur

Sorry to see this happened but glad it happened to a movie I didnt want to see

Graeme Miller

Been looking forward to this rewatch for a while. Am I disappointed? Sure. Will I still enjoy? Absolutely. Is asking myself a question and then answering it the same insufferable habit that Cary Elwes character had on Seinfeld? Yes, so i’ll stop. But this is a good opportunity to just say that Cinebinge is prolly the most considerate, honest and professional reaction channel I’ve come across, IMO. Working in post-production and broadcast I’ve found MANY “professionals” working on “big” stuff that conduct themselves MUCH less so and with inflated egos to boot. The extra mile is noticed and appreciated. ox

BigHawk

I guess this shows how much i miss Georges awesome stupid jokes.

Cinebinge

i think what i said was "guess this is how love potions in Harry Potter is made".

Paul Mix

Ugh, my sympathies! Kudos for dealing with every creator's worst nightmare honestly and professionally.

Boris Kopp

It was kinda metaphoric watching it this way. Simone that had to deal with what happened in the movie and George the silent bystander that is too fascinated/shocked to speak.

Florian

Shit happens, you are humans after all. Thanks for the extra movie :) The Simone talking to a silent Gerorge is weired AF :D

Daniel Bjork

Could you make an edited YT version of just Simone’s reactions?

Alexander Sparf

Mr. He, your silence will only incriminate you further.

LeperMessiah117

Man, if you were to start the recording, check to make sure it's recording, see that it is and then it freeze right after you check and never check again because you've done this a thousand times and it's become routine, how do you win against the tyranny of faulty hardware/software?

Ben Stevens

watching the solo reaction first while i wrap up my homework for the week, but still pleasantly surprised to get two videos on Sunday this week. no worries, George! <3 see you at the movies, cinebitches

China Andronicus

Aww, such a bummer. You two have my favorite discussions. It was still fun watching Simone, but I really missed George’s commentary. You definitely need to watch The Wicker Man from ‘73, the director’s cut. Similar in subject matter but as much as I love this film, Wicker Man is far better, and has Christopher Lee and Edward Woodward.

Śéáń

Never a good sign when a video starts with the "could pull out a ukelele at any moment" shot framing..! Hard luck on the footage, especially on a big horror one like this one.

lovemoose

half way through the video i forgot george's screen is frozen so i was like "why does he keep holding the same expression?" lol

elias rinis

Bummer that your voice recording didn't also made it. Oh what to do, I'm gonna love it anyway since I really like the movie. You should do the vvitch soon ;)

Dude Longcouch

It would probably be worth establishing the habit of making separate local recordings of your voices in Audacity. It's very easy to do, won't conflict with your usual recordings, and provides a bit of redundancy for any audio issues. In cases like this, you could at least layer in George's audio so we can hear his half of the conversations, even without video, which would make for a much better watch. Just a suggestion.

maikeru

yeah, I‘m watching the react right now and fuck I wanted to hear both opinions but it is what it is. :-)

Anamondaris

George George George. Did it cross anyone else’s mind that George just didn’t want to edit it because of subject matter and that it’s A24?😂

Anamondaris

Happened to me multiple times! But I’m on gummies😂

Anamondaris

And if he wants any of his stuff in he can caption it

Anamondaris

Also, I kind of loved this accidental format and would like to see it happen in reverse on a movie Simone has seen or even loves💜

Inkpendude

Wait the audio froze too? I didn't think it was that bad :(

Adrian

As a Swede, I can confirm that this is how most Swedes celebrate midsummer. Feel free to come and visit us, it's wonderful.

akaTheBAY-AY-RON

*Watching George's frozen footage* "George, your silence will only incriminate you further." *Watching a few more seconds of George's frozen footage* "No George, don't take your anger out on MEEEEE NOOOOO!" (Dramatization. May not have happened)

maikeru

man I'd love to hear George's comments during the sex scene 😆

Niklas Ekman

Thanks for still posting this. I enjoyed Simone's reaction to this fantastic movie.

Psyclopath

An evening with Simone? For us? Oh you shouldn't have...

Anamondaris

Definitely going to be one of Simone’s cozy watches up there with You’ve Got Mail😂💜

derecked

I just imagined Simone was talking to herself the entire time. 10/10

Buttahfingr

Reacting to Simone's one-sided conversation for a horror movie is both insatiable and hilarious lmao

Mycenaeus

It's very unsettling to see George calmly smiling even over the most disturbing scenes of this movie. Also, you should watch Logan's Run (1976).

probablyKoi

was very interesting at the end just being left with Simone's existential crisis, bless her haha

Arthur 'Two Sheds' Jackson

You can KIND OF still hear George in the background 😂. Too bad we don't get a thumbnail of Simone as the May Queen 😄

G P

I actually quite enjoyed seeing George smiling politely as Simone was losing her shit

Blqbrd

goddammit george 😔

Quis

Crazy at 1:16:05 Josh said “This is not some glorified hobby that I’m casually dipping my feet into.” and at 2:14:50 he literally was buried with his feet dipping out the mud Idk I’m just reaching 😂

WalrusWallace

These things happen! Just happy to get a midsommar reaction

BubblyRainbows

This was my first watch for this movie too, and sadly, I'm not impressed. It didn't even really HAVE a story. It was just a bunch of weird shit strung together and a lot of ridiculously poor decisions on the part of our "protagonists". After two people commit suicide in front of a crowd, only a moron would stick around, no matter how much the people tried to persuade them to stay. And then people keep disappearing and everyone's like "oh sure, I bet they just left." I know the whole horror genre is built on stupid decisions (let's open the crypt, read the cursed book, disturb the burial ground, etc.) But it really does ruin my enjoyment of a movie when no one in the whole movie makes even one remotely logical decision. I give it 2/10, would not recommend. More importantly: I am sorry that the recording got messed up on your side, George. I appreciate that you put the video up anyways for your fans to enjoy as much as was possible. It was weird to see Simone holding a conversation with no one, but at times it was really amusing, especially with George sitting there in a frozen smile. Gave me a unique look at something I'm normally not on the outside of. I really do appreciate all that you two do for your patrons. And putting up a bonus movie was so nice. Really above and beyond.

Ea-nāṣir, the worst copper merchant in history!

Too bad about the missing footage of George. It's a bit one-sided now. Maybe you guys should think of a redundancy, like just setting up your phones to record as well, and if all is well, just delete that after. Very low effort, but you won't loose the reaction, even if the footage is from the wrong angle, and the sound might be worse. I remember watching this in the cinema when it came out. Being a Swede living in Ireland, I was most likely the only in the cinema understanding what was being said in Swedish. I couldn't stop but laughing when started talking about ättestupan, and got some very strange looks then.

Liuzetz

Even with the issue, I enjoyed the reaction a lot. This movie is bonkers. It makes you think a lot about the process of grief and emotional support and after watching it multiple times, it gets even more interesting. Florence killed in this role. Also, listening to Simone alone made me think I was eavesdropping a phone call of her and a friend and that kinda fits with the creeps of the movie, like, why I'm so interested in this person's conversation ???

Funkachute

First time watch for me and a few of the deaths brought to mind the Hannibal series. Which is crazy since that aired on network tv. Anyway Simone and George need to react to that someday.

PsiOryx

George has never been more insightful /s I think the oddness of the one sided reaction was very appropriate for the movie

Jacob Colson

Shame this didn't happen for Lord of War. Meaning instead of the whole reaction being useless because of a technical mishap, I wish it was something like this, ya know? Damn, I was really looking forward for that reaction. Oh well.

Jacob Colson

He can make text bubbles appear whenever he speaks. Lol

Jacob Colson

I REALLY wanted to see their Lord of War reaction!!

2026-09-05 05:00 This is actually quite hilarious watching Simone talk to herself LOL!!
2025-10-28 02:36

Jim Watkins

Since there’s no YT version ill never see this reaction

Jamie Maclean

Anyone know what’s happening with stranger things??

Duh-jango

I really hope this wasn’t the first movie where you thanked me on your patreon list with my new name. I was really looking forward to see if it got any reaction from Simone when George said it.

Philipp Roensch

Ah, my fist watch as well, but since George was missing and this isn't the Directors Cut, I'm sorry I skepped. Seen it for myself now and must say, I like Hereditary more. The family B plot did not connect with the relationship and trip A plot. I guess she is happy to cry it out and be rid of the awful boyfriend? We are not checking in? This story could have been a r/relationship_advice post. Interesting insight into Swedish/Norse traditions, but apart from making them look more fucked than the average cult... I agree it is pretty and gripping. But not A-tier horror.

LadyFinger

wow I can't believe George was smiling through the whole thing

Dee Aitch

Haha, reading the description I was like "oh George will be frozen but he'll have his backup audio track he records dubbed in over a static image." Then the movie starts and it's no George audio. This is really like "Garfield minus Garfield."

Alexander Kirichenko

Hey lord of War watchers, now we get the other way around. Cinebinge, you sonofabitch, at the end you did Rat Race, and I am so happy you liked that movie too.

Eric Mc Daniel

George being frozen like he is makes him look speechless and very invested lol

Sheens

I guess I don't understand why there couldn't still be YT edit is this video?

ShittyShittyGameGang

You know I thought that was the girl that was buried but idk, was it him?

Imnotacop

I gotta throw Midnight Mass out there as a MUST WATCH series.

Jay Johnson

then at the end (while I assume George was reading supporter names), we just see her smiling and randomly giggling for like a minute

MorePunsPleaseGeorge

It's quite eerie to hear Simone respond to questions from no one. "Simone, who are you talking to? There's nobody there..."

CryoniC

Simone just having a full on conversation with a cardboard cutout of George.
