The last polls winners was Deadpool 2 (yes we've both seen Logan ;)  ) and we'll be watching/filming our reactions later today and uploaded Saturday.

Until then, here is this weeks poll with some of the movies suggested by you guys!

Remember, you can vote for multiple films!

Reminder: movies that don't win does not mean they will never be watched, it just means they will be watched later. Please be respectful to each others opinions, we're all just here to have fun and watch movies :)

Taylor

Shout-out to all death of Stalin voters. I don't see it winning, but I wanted you to know I appreciate your taste

George Baxter

I’d love to see someone watch Hitchhikers Guide. I think it’s gloriously British. Fans of the books found it too self-contained whilst new people find it very weird… but honestly fans of Loki should really enjoy this film!!

David Gallagher

Good lineup. Im goos with everything except for death of stalin. Only because i have not seen it yet

auntxeSERVER

“A bit of the old ultraviolence” a clockwork orange is amazing

QuiGon_Jim (Howe)

I think its about time Simone got to watch Hitchhikers Guide.

Śéáń

I only watched Death of Stalin recently, what a fun, dark film.

Elijah

I’d love to see a reaction to boy in the striped pyjamas, brilliant film but hardly anyone has done reactions to it.

Fuzzy

All of these are great so I'm hyped for whichever one wins, especially if it's Lock Stock since you both enjoyed Snatch so much

Viilutaja

Will You have a comedy movie poll also in near future? I would suggest putting Shallow Hal (2001) with Jack Black into the poll list.

tristan renaut

Hope Dunkirk won't win, nothing against it but we usually don't have many reactions for the rest of the films.

Kyle Baker

Death of Stalin is very underrated on this poll right now, that reaction would be amazing.

tryin_gosling

Oh man, Death of Stalin won't win but damn that's a great film

Nick Sneddon

Trainspotting, Trainspotting, Trainspotting – not just one of the best British films of the 90s, but one of the best films of the 90s PERIOD. Arguably the best film about drugs ever made barring maybe Requiem For A Dream. If anyone has any interest in films ( and following this channel im guessing they have ) and they haven’t seen it I don’t know what you are waiting for – get it watched. Yes the other films on that list are great as well – Dunkirk especially, however Trainspotting is an absolute treasure I guarantee you will NOT be disappointed

PIG

“I am no longer constipated…”

Jeromy M

Clockwork Orange needs to be watched.

Tom Smith

Death at a Funeral UK version would be great!

Adam Wetstein

Since Clockwork Orange appears to be the winning. It is interesting that Kubrick was wrong and British Board of censors were right about how it would effect youth. ( no spoilers). Please discuss in the outto

Adam Wetstein

How about a Cringe poll of tax break Canadian films of the 70s

Opti_Frog

This is a pretty sweet poll. I could vote for every one of these films.

Travis Bounds

Death of Stalin is hilarious, 28 days later is amazing too.

Tim_119

Trainspotting has to be done at some point absolutely one of the best British films of the 90’s, I’d also recommend Get Carter 1971 with Michael Caine it may have just had it’s 50th anniversary it’s still holding it own even after all that time.

Marko T.

28 Days Later is great. I like the sequel even more.

JayF

All of the above.

James O'Sullivan

Problem with HHG2TG, the film version is probably the weakest version released. If this is Simone's intro to Douglas Adams, it feels unfair 😁

JayF

Also, I would like to thank you both for the dedication to your channel you've shown over the last few weeks. Doubling up on your work to cover your off time was a really nice thing to do for your subscribers here. Keep up the great work! :)

Florian

I was waiting for Trainspotting, for a while 😊. Go for it 🚂🚃🚃

RLYtoxic

I wonder if they have ever seen Beetlejuice (1988). This is my all time favorite movies.

Byron

Trainspotting is an all-time favorite of mine, starring a young Obi-Wan Kenobi, with a lot of really “react-y” moments. If it doesn’t make the cut this round, please keep this one in the queue!

William Burnham

Death of Stalin is a brilliant film and the performance by Simon Russell Beale is extraordinary

Bjorn Andreassen

Some decent choices for this voting poll. However, it is a massive opportunity missed as far as UK films to not have films such as Paddington, Paddington 2, Chicken Run, Kingsman The Golden Circle, Wallace And Gromit The Curse Of The Warerabbit, The Italian Job (Michael Caine version), Eddie The Eagle and the UK original Ealing comedy version of the Coen Brothers film The Ladykillers

MacGuffinStuff

Dude, they're all great movies. Even the underdog so far in the poll, Death Of Stalin is so damn good Also, happy to see two Danny Boyle directed movies on the poll, I maintain that 28 Days Later is directly responsible for the resurgence of the zombie genre, and Trainspotting is one of my personal all time favorite movies. Also, is The Beach that bad? I actually liked the movie, I hear a lot of people don't.

James Whalen

You guys really need to finish the Lethal Weapon franchise, it’s really good.

Michael_AP

A UK poll without "A fish called Wanda" 😱 Oh dear, oh dear... what has this world come to 😋

Senec

I remember Trainspotting being the single worst film I've ever seen. I literally ejected the DVD when it was done, and snapped it in half.

Matthew Meunier

Death of Stalin is one of my all time favourites! It's not particularly well known but it's incredible.

Lawrence Gough

Actually a good set of choices. Alas, my preference, Death of Stalin languishes in dead last. It’ll be a good counterpart to Jojo rabbit, although it’s a much darker black comedy.

Lawrence Gough

Having just noticed it’s a UK poll, I have to wish that older films were more on your radar. Kind hearts and coronets and The life and death of Colonel Blimp are great comedies.

Davide

I voted for "Dunkirk" and "28 Days Later". Another film i recommend is "This is England".

Regular Viewer Bunty Hoven

The right answer is Death of Stalin but I’ll accept Trainspotting as a substitute, Hitchhiker’s can get in the bin though. Would love to see Get Carter and The Long Good Friday on the list at some point.

Stewart Denew

For more British stuff, I'll suggest; Watership Down - bunnies! Legendary movie, famously traumatised multiple generations of British kids. Wallace & Gromit - pretty much any, maybe the series they're not very long. A Grand Day out is the original & it's great, but the Wrong Trousers is where it really got into it's groove Chicken Run - Aardman (W&G) plus Dreamworks, essentially the Great Escape for kids Dead Set - short TV series by Charlie Brooker, the guy behind Black Mirror, zombie horror set in the British Big Brother house Ultraviolet - not the film but a short vampire TV series starring Jack Davenport (Commandant Norrington in Pirates of the Caribbean, the agent at the start of Kingsman that gets bisected plus a few other things)

Travis H

Paddington should really be on this list! Went with Hitchhikers and clockwork.

Hunter Adams

I haven't seen anyone react to Undercover Blues (1993), starring Kathleen Turner and Dennis Quaid. Probably because I don't think it's available digitally anywhere. Which is sad, because it's just a fun movie.

Joe

As Canadian reactors, I really think you should watch some Canadian films, even if they don't match the "algorithm" or whatever, or even if other reactors haven't watched them first. Hard Core Logo, for example, is one of the best films of all time, and the best Canadian film. Filmed in Vancouver and the surrounding area. Staring Canadian actors and has an amazing soundtrack. Plus a version of it streams for free on youtube, so their shouldn't be any copyright issues. Other great Canadian films are Last Night, The Red Violin, Cube, Highway 61, Into the Forest, and a lot more.

Wolfi0815

what about a reaction on "Isle of Dogs" from 2018, or "First Man", "Atomic Blonde", "Baby Driver", "Berry Seal", "A Corpse Bride", "Planet 51", "Ghost in the Shell" (Both, the Anime and the 2017 version), "Argo", Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri", "Intouchables" from 2011, "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time", "A Knights Tale", "Logan Lucky", "Chappie", "District 9", "Elysium", ... Sorry, I just went through my media server...

Brian Harris

It’s never gonna win, but Death of Stalin is legit hilarious and incredible, and if you don’t watch it here, you should totally check it out on your own time.

Logan Kerlee

While I'm happy that it isn't in last place, I'd really love to see a reaction for A Clockwork Orange. It's a VERY dark movie, one that I watched at a far too young of an age with an ex girlfriend who was very enthusiastic about me seeing it. lol, it's good but VERY dark. Crossing my fingers for an eventual win. :)

UnSafeStu

Love seeing the one Scottish film in there. Thank you for the representation haha. Was gonna quote the film but that would be spoilers

evilmunky

i know this is a movie poll but what about some british tv shows? i'd love to see a reaction to Bottom, blackadder or even Garth Marenghi's Darkplace or spaced

Jay Davis

C'mon, Dunkirk. You can do it! I BElieve! Okay. No it can't... but I'm still rootin' fer it!

Matt Blanchette

Not a British show -- Canadian as all-get-out -- but, fuck it, what the hell: "ORPHAN BLACK". :-D

Rezblade

Hmmm uk ? Run Lola run , girl from Bourne identity, rest of Bourne movies

Bill Woods

_Death of Stalin_ needs more votes.

HeyHeyJK

Whew, so many good ones in there, but I'm going to only go with a vote for "Trainspotting" which is in my top ten favorite films of all time. Amazing piece of filmmaking (and one of two Danny Boyle films in the poll)! Hard to go wrong with all the ones I've seen on this list, but crossing my fingers "Trainspotting" pulls into the lead!

Ruphus

Hitchhiker's. Because it's such a classic that its a shame it was made in '05. Plus I want Simone to recognize George's Slartibartfast references. And I love Martin Freeman's performance so much so that I think of this movie before the Sherlock series when I think of him.

dead

I'd like to recommend 'Green Street Hooligans' for a future UK poll. On the surface its a one dimensional movie about football hooliganism, but there's a really good underlying lesson on where do you draw the line between loyalty/friendship, and living a healthy life.

Austin

Trainspotting is one of the best movies I’ve seen

Ken Myers

Some great movies on here, but sadly they are not winning the poll. Critically, Trainspotting and Clockwork Orange have to be the two best. Also, they are very non-formulaic, so great for reaction vids. Hitchhiker's Guide is the best book ever written, but the movie just not capture 1/10th of the humor, so forgettable. 28 Days Later was okay movie, but not anything too special, up there with World War Z, good not masterpiece. Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels was also quite good, but not quite masterpiece, on same level as Snatch or In Bruges.

Nick Sneddon

This is fixed – how on earth has Hitchhikers got more votes than Trainspotting? And Lock, stock and Dunkirk. This makes no sense to me lol

Marko T.

Suggestion: Terminator Dark Fate (2019). It was the first Terminator movie produced by James Cameron since T2. Its the real Terminator 3. He had nothing to do with T3 (2003), Salvation and Genisys. Would be interesting to see someone react to it who has only seen the first two.

Bjorn Andreassen

Both George and Simone enjoyed Shawn Of The Dead and Hot Fuzz so for future reference I would suggest they might add the comedy film Run Fat Boy Run to their watchlist of UK films to view. It has Simon Pegg in it, Hank Azaria who they might recognise from the likes of Friends and The Simpsons and Thandie Newton who they might recognise if they have seem the tv series Westworld

Bjorn Andreassen

Not sure if these will ever come up in a voting poll of 1980's films but my childhood involved seeing films such as The Police Academy films, Teen Wolf, Short Circuit and Short Circuit 2, Twins, Three Amigos, Gremlins, Innerspace, Harry And The Hendersons, Stir Crazy, The Running Man. So it would be cool to see Cinebinge React reactions to any of these at a later date

Lindsay G

I would like to suggest Four Lions as a movie definitely worth checking out.

Jeff I.

28 Days Later and Dunkirk got my vote. A lesser known but great British film would be Dead Man's Shoes from 2004. It's a slow burn psychological thriller with moments of dark humor and brilliant acting from Paddy Considine.

JWW301

Good to see Trainspotting and Lock Stock on the list. Hopefully they come back around if they don’t win this time.

George Smith

Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels would be an absolute treat!!

Bjorn Andreassen

The Parole Officer, Brassed Off, Four Weddings And A Funeral and Mean Machine are other UK films I can recommend. Mean Machine is basically a UK remake of both the 1970's film of the same name and similar to the Adam Sandler film The Longest Yard. Maybe even the Laurel And Hardy biopic Stan And Ollie could possibly be classed as a UK film as it mostly tales place in England during the twilight years of the life and career of Stan Laurel And Oliver Hardy. Steve Coogan and John C Reilly are superb in the lead roles of Laurel and Hardy

Tom austin

Surprised no one has really mentioned Harry Brown? Really good British thriller with Michael Caine nailing the role perfectly

Blacky

The Death of Stalin is so good, sooooo good. I had to change my pants while watching it I was laughing so much...

tristan renaut

Can you please add No Country for Old Men in a later poll ?

Parabolica

Having just rewatched your Chernobyl reaction, Death of Stalin would make so much sense to you now you have context as to what it was like in glorious Soviet Russia. Shame it’s bottom of the poll :(

Abraham Hawkins

Simone, any opportunity for reaction to the first Silent Hill and Second Silent Hill movie?

Maarten Martens

Already looking forward to Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, love the Magrathea shirt George was rocking on one of the other streams.

Middy

Looks like we're getting the movie where people run at other people. Apparently some folk found that exciting.

Michael Balderson

Would love to see you react to some classic Hitchcock like Psycho, Rope, Rear Window or North by Northwest.

howtocookazombie (Stan)

I have another suggestion for a movie, which is very good and also about the UK: "Children of Men". It will blow your mind.

Grant Uebel

What about Annihilation?! One of the best sci-fi thrillers with just a wild mind bending ending?!

AC10

Adding October Sky to the suggestions again. And Yay! a scary movie. Is it bad that I have never read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books?

Erika Rangel

Bummer Trainspotting didn't win, hope to see it again on future polls, love your reactions 😊

Kevin C.

I'm way late, but here's my enthusiastic vote for The Death of Stalin!
