It’s 9 hours sitting for Lord of The Rings without breaks in my house lol

Martin Roca

Next one is 3 hours long? It has to be Oppenheimer!!!!

Lyonheart86(BryonH)

dont forget lotr extended has specific break points to make it easier for each movie. He wouldnt have to sit there for 4 hours. The pacing for extended is edited as to where you CAN take a break

Odd Thomas

Not my favourite Spielberg by a long shot, but only because I hate watching people lie in movies and that's pretty much the whole movie, lol. Please watch Spielberg's War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise, it's one of his best imo.

djKENTO

The worst Spielberg films are probably 1941, a WWII comedy full of comedy greats but it’s largely bloated and boring. Then there’s his segment of the Twilight Zone movie which doesn’t fit the format of the film as a whole and feels like an unfinished concept more than a real story. After that his worst films are still watchable and have a lot of love in them. There’s Always, a supernatural story about pilots that put out wild fires. The Lost World Jurassic Park and The BFG and lastly Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Odd Thomas

I saw Oppenheimer in theatres and I was not bored for one second of the three hours. My ass was numb though. Talking of intermissions, I still know the exact shot in Titanic when it happened, lol. Obvs not a thing now on 4k but the VHS was split in two.

Odd Thomas

The worst Spielberg movie, at least in terms of critical reception, was 1941. It was a huge war comedy that just didn't land in terms of tone. Think Blues Brothers but ten times bigger and set during WWII. The BFG was pretty meh too. Lincoln bored me to tears and I only lasted about 20 minutes.

Joe D. MacGuffinstuff

Speaking of Spielberg, one of the coolest things to me is something I heard another director say about him, I can't remember who though, which is killing me, but he said that Speilberg once told him he always wanted to do more horror movies, he actually really liked writing Poltergeist and directing War of the Worlds (more sci Fi but, kind of scary) and Jaws, but he was worried about being pigeon holed as a horror director. I kind of wonder if he was worried he'd be regarded the way John Carpenter was for so long.

Joe D. MacGuffinstuff

I don't know how accurate this movie is but I think it's probably like the story Woody Harrelson's character tells to Robert Downey Jr, and Keanu Reeves in "A Scanner Darkly" about the guy who pretended to be an impostor, which is like a meta con lol, he just made up a story about pretending to be all these people and made a lot of money off the notoriety, which is pretty clever.

Josh Sewell

I recommend watching The Fabelmans soon after Catch Me If You Can, if only to see how much both of them are allegories for Spielberg’s own childhood and relationship with his parents. They’re really raw and revealing.

ChickensAreRacist

Excited for Oppenheimer!! George, I wonder if you told your dad about Tolkien and his time in war helping influence his writing of LOTR… maybe it would entice him more? Idk. But also fair on how long it is for him to sit through.

JediLounger

Watching the movie with you guys now. So the Secret Service handles cases that involve counterfeit money. The FBI would handle cases that involve check fraud, especially interstate cases.

Monica Alarcon

That James Bond movie is Goldfinger... The third movie in the official canon...

8bitAndy

LOTR theatrical release versions are "only" 3 hours each. A much better choice for first timers who know nothing of the books, the world, or high fantasy in general, imo.

Martin Roca

The Departed is a great movie if you looking for recommendations like that, police, chasing, etc etc (Also with Di Caprio)

Patrick

I've seen this movie a handful of times, but it will be cool to see you guys watch it for the first. It's a great movie.

Keerit Thind

Matchstock Men is also excellent given you guys thoroughly enjoyed this. One of Nic Cage's underrated performances and also an underrated film from Ridley Scott.

Patrick

New AND 3hrs long? Oppenheimer.

NJ77

Out of Sight (1998) is another great movie in this genre. It was directed by Steven Soderbergh who also did Ocean's Eleven.

MongoTheElder

I would recommend Charade with Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant, another 'keeps you guessing' movie.

REDR58
>>123004642

They should definitely dive into the older Bond movies, maybe do one a month.

REDR58
>>122998499

Also the Director’s Cut of Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) and Empire of the Sun from 1987.

Curious
>>123008395

I hadn't even thought about "Charade". What a great choice. A movie cliché is "it's got everything" (as in: it's got humor, suspense, action, adventure (not the same thing as action), romance, etc., etc.). But that's actually true for "Charade". It's almost like someone decided to make the best Hitchcock movie you could make without actually involving Hitchcock. And it worked. Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn are perfectly cast. Normally, age differences make getting into the romance difficult, but this is like "My Cousin Vinny" where you just don't care because the chemistry is so perfect. And even the supporting characters: George Kennedy as the heavy, Walter Matthau as the government bureaucrat. PLUS, it's in the public domain. So, I think Simone and George can just watch it the way we'd like to see, with the movie in frame as they comment. Great choice.

Cincassette

I'd love to see you guys watch the legendary westerns by Sergio Leone. I suggest the "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" with Clint Eastwood as a great place to start, followed by Leone's masterpiece "Once Upon a Time in the West".

Daryl

From the conversation you were having in the beginning, about your dad and you watching Lord of the Rings. Another react channel, Storm Akima, when they watched Lord of the Rings with their mom, they had an intermission in between, but it was cut out and all... But I feel like, during that intermission with you guys, it’d be cool to see a conversation between you two in that intermission, what are his thoughts so far, and how it correlates to Tolkien’s World War 1 experience.. etc. just an idea.

Dioskur

About the LOTR playtime: my friends and me watched all three extended cuts in one go and it was hard. We were still "happy smokers" at that time and had every snack known to men, and after like 10h we were filled to the brim with trash and so wasted... And about Simones "pointing feet" thing: I was told that if you cross your legs it can be just a cozy relaxed gesture in a conversation and that is the case if you cross them in a way that the feet point to the one youre talking with. If you cross them in the way that your feet point away it is a closed/defensive gesture.

W T

Yeah I am on the side of "intermissions suck." All it does break up the flow, make it even longer, I can always walk to the exit and back if I really need to stretch and the people who can't hold it for three hours would probably still need to go pee regardless of length. I mean, difficult to accommodate everyone I guess, but then again I'm pretty much over the theatrical experience, short of the occasional IMAX flick in a really great cinema. I really like cozying up in my bed and being able to just pause whenever, streaming and what it did to home cinema is utterly underappreciated for that alone. And yeah, Simone, Tom Hanks is, in fact, the best. Got that right. And Amy Adams totally looks spooky, lol

Odd Thomas

I think one of the great things about LOTR is they make it about the characters, not the effects. The effects are great but they serve the story. Too many films, especially Fantasy, think it's all about the effects and spectacle and don't really have three dimensional characters at all. Also LOTR is a pretty universal good vs evil story so I think your dad would totally get what's happening without any prior knowledge.

Chase Lonnergan

A Rotary Club is a branch of Rotary International. It's a club that is built around combining and uniting businesses, public works, and charities for the greater public good. They were instrumental in eradicating polio, they also make sure businesses are up to code for environmental regulations, donating to charity, distributing goods, etc. They are the ones responsible for organizing heat locations during snowstorms for people who are homeless or lose power, they work with the Red Cross to acquire food and water donations in disaster areas, and more.

gobmob2000

So as far as I can tell, the film itself is a large embellishment of Franks own story, for example, we know that frank had 4 siblings, he was not an only child, also his mother never remarried and Hanratty did not exist, he was an amalgamation of several different FBI agents. But those are not Franks fault, the film made them up to tell a better story, Frank himself claims that the film is only 70-80% true. The Book the film is based on is also a known embellishment, Frank did not actually write the book himself, but a ghost writer wrote it for him. Frank himself acknowledges that the book is over dramatised and exaggerated by the editor and ghost writer. On top of that, it is also known that Frank embellishes his own life story. Having said that though, he was a con man, he did forge checks and he did impersonate a airline pilot. He probably did not impersonate a doctor or lawyer (although as far as I can tell there is some dispute on this). He also was caught multiple times and was in and out of prison, therefore he did not really successfully evade the police till the end. There is also some dispute, that Alan C. Logan, the guy who did the "expose" of Franks real life and myth, may have somewhat exaggeration the scale of the lie. I.e. Frank may not have lied as much as Alan claimed he did. I would say the film is an embellishment of an embellishment of an embellishment of his life story, its largely fiction with a few kernels of truth. But is that not what a con is?

gobmob2000

For the next Spielberg and Kubrick film, I would recommend A.I. Artificial Intelligence 2001. Its not considered his best, some people don't like it, but others did. Personally I thought it was an interesting film and entertaining. Also, not a Spielberg or Kubrick, but related in theme and came out within 2 years of AI, also staring the late, great Robin Williams, is the Bicentennial Man 1999.

Justin Wolford

If you guys are looking for another good cat n mouse movie then check out Lord of War with Nicholas cage. I believe its another based off of real events type movie.

Patrick
>>123012563

I don't mind intermissions as long as the story is designed for it. For example, Godfather II.

Patrick

As a weird coincidence, I ordered a new book of bank checks this morning lol

🖤Finally someone is speaking out on behalf of the Long John, the most mislabeled pastry in the baking world. People always assume they're the same thing, or that it doesn't make a difference. "Wow this eclair is so good" they'll say with a mouth full of Long John (wow, that sounded gross... yikes) But to all you Jims of the world, I tell you this... identity theft is not a joke...

W T

Ok, after the knock-knock jokes... what about Trailer Park Boys what's the sitcom-policy here

Prof. Writhms

Spielberg’s “1941” (1979) is considered one of his tanks. Its style of screwball World War II comedy with huge slap-sticky set pieces seemed like something that would release in the early 1960s. Critics tore it to pieces. Personally, I thought it was hilarious though I’m a fan of those old crazy comedies. Plus it had an all-star cast and a John Williams score. What’s not to like? By the way... You mentioned liking the music score of this movie but when John Williams' name came up in the opening credits, you were reacting to animation. In case you didn't notice, there you go. 😉

>>123017874

🖤They've been made into the same thing just because people started using them interchangeably, even some bakeries, but they're different in origin in the way they're made and the higher-end bakeries who usually take this stuff more seriously, as opposed to the chains like Krispy Kreme or Dunkin, will make them differently, and label them as such. Simone seems to have worked at such a bakery. But true long johns are made with dough leavened with yeast. Eclairs are made with Choux pastry and are leavened with steam. And yes, originally Long Johns didn't have filling in them, the addition to filling in some varieties came later. But adding filling doesn't by default make them eclairs just like adding icing and sprinkles on top of an uncut bagel wouldn't make it a donut. Don't get me wrong, I've 100% called Long Johns "eclairs" and not cared to give it a 2nd thought. Either or is fine with me (well the long john has to have filling in it, I'm not dead inside LOL) and I don't give a 2nd thought to what the place I'm buying them at calls them.

They usually never mention the scores, I wish they´d talk about the scores more often. There are so many good film scores that are huge factors in the success of movies. Hans Zimmer, Ennio Morricone, Howard Shore, John Williams, James Newton Howard.. incredible artists. I mean, last week they watched Unbreakable and the epic melancholic score is so good (similar to the great The Sixth Sense score, also by J. Newton-Howard), I get goosebumps multiple times during the movie. The movie itself is great. I´m so glad I watched it in the movie theatre.

The Maestro

Spielberg's worst movie would be his adaptation of War of the Worlds and there's a bit of a joke that he ran out of talent at that point

Alex Ch

As a fellow lover of competent people doing things cinema I can say that returning to Michael Mann is always a treat. “Thief” is really an early 80s classic of the genre. “Broadcast News” is really an all-time great that I think both George and Simone would love from 1987. And there’s a charming little Steven Spielberg Tom Hanks movie, not necessarily one of their best, that a lot of people are fond of called “The Terminal.” Yes, like an airline terminal. Would be a really fascinating follow up.

Alex Ch
>>123026267

A very popular adaptation. And I always felt one of the few movies in popular culture that really dealt with how America felt after 9/11.

Alex Ch
>>123029483

Oh and let’s not forget the ultimate terrifying real world “competent people” movie and recent poll runner up. The Social Network, which really should have won just all the awards that year.

Logan Kerlee

Really enjoyed watching this years ago. :) Frank is one crafty sob! He knows his way out of most situations and it's unbelievable how well he pulled it off for so long. Happy that you both enjoyed the movie. :)

Logan Kerlee

hahahaha, I love that there's a high tier patron named Pearl Jam! Good shit. :)

Pearl Jam

Competent cat vs competent mouse? First movie that comes to mind is ‘Inside Man (2006)’. Great flick!

Steve kephart
>>123005645

I totally agree! It is such a great movie and yet so unknown. The sad part is it probably wouldn't win a poll as so few people have watched it.

Steve kephart

The real Frank Abagnale did a speech a few years ago at Google where he talked about the differences between the movie and real life. it is a very entertaining watch and can be found on Youtube. He even gets into discussing more modern crimes. Well worth a watch and will answer your question George. I mentioned this in the poll, but thought I would bring it up again.

Tukken

Lord of the Rings DVD edition originally came on 2 discs. I remember Fellowship for example had a break at the end of Council of Elrond. Though having said that, I don't take the opportunity to take a break either! XD

REDR58

“Sara Lee” was a brand of foods, cakes, cheese, meats, etc. I think most people in the US remember it from the cakes and pastries.

Skyruff

Around the word, people who take advantage of the social systems we create for stability (Con Men) are treated as or more harshly then violent criminals. Unless it is strictly fiscal, then they get less (financial crimes ).

Skyruff

The U.S. Secret Service is responsible for protecting the U.S. currency while the FBI is in charge of fiscal crimes, thus there is a lot of overlap.

VinnyAhhh

I'm not going to recommend this for the channel as I don't think it'll ever get enough legs to win a poll but for/on your own time I think you'd enjoy "I Love You Phillip Morris" — it has a lot of similarities to "Catch Me if You Can": it follows a very competent con-man and based on a true story; but is definitely more of a comedy. Also how can you go wrong with Jim Carrey & Ewan McGregor.

Pearl Jam

Sounds like you watched Oppenheimer after this. I just got it a few days ago but haven’t seen it yet. I’ll hold off and watch it with ya.

rycolaa

The feet pointing thing Simone mentioned, I think that's from New Girl in season 1 with Cece telling Jess that

Green Nolan

If you're looking for "cat and mouse" movies... DEFINITELY THE DEPARTED Ironically it also stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Sheen. Won best picture Oscar and was directed by Martin Scorsese. I'm shocked that you haven't seen it. DEFINITELY needs to be on a poll!

punterjoe

Intermissions - along with Overtures were features of vintage Hollywood "Road Movies" RSVP spectaculars that were treated more like going to a Broadway Play or a Grand Opera than simply "going to the movies". I also suspect that a big part of Intermissions was technical... to give the projectionist time to set up the second half of the picture on the ginormous 70mm projectors (or, heaven forbid the multiple projectors used in Cinerama). I suspect the benefit to the audience was just collateral benefit.

windyWin

This was one of those films I think I saw not too long after it was released, back when renting videos from the video store was still a thing. I was probably about 14 when I saw it back around 2003-ish. I'm not that much older than Simone and George. I liked it just as much as I did when I first saw it. The fun part of being an adult nowadays is that I can watch any movie I want without having an adult covering my eyes or my parents forbidding me from watching a particular film. My older siblings got to watch Robocop, Total Recall and Predator when they were around 13 and 14, but by the time I was 13 my parents made sure I didn't see it. I remember being 16 while I was watching Blade 2, my father would get worried that I might become brainwashed into becoming a violent murderer or vampire hunter or have nightmares or whatever. I rented both Kill Bill 1 and 2 just as I turned 16, I felt so edgy and cool LOL.

BangDroid

If that does happen with a mic, instead of doing ADR, train a lip reading AI on the hours and hours of Simone talking you have.... Oh no... This is a grim future. I'm imagining movie reviews and reactions done by AI VTubers.

simon brouillard

Saw the lord of the ring in a movie theatre without having red the books and the next day after fellowship I started to read it🙂. Has for Spielberg, 1941 directed by him and written by Zemeckis his regarded as a really bad movie and a rare mistake by him. Its one of the rare ones of his I haven’t seen. For those that I have seen its the BFG and its not close, so so so bad. Anyway thanks for all the content and as always, There will be blood 😏

>>123050049

It’s on their long-term plans. George is a big fan of the original Infernal Affairs movies, of course, so I’m not sure if they want Simone to see that one first.

As a doctor and pilot, I assure you it's totally 100% possible to fake being a doctor and pilot.

Funny you were talking about stopping and starting a movie because I had to in the middle of this one, just rewatched it but I started over, tried to watch it before work the first time. Just wanted to say, Christopher Walken, we all love a good Walken impression and he's both an icon and a meme now, but this movie reminded me, he's an amazing actor. He's been great in everything he's been in, but I think The Deerhunter is considered his best performance and I agree, in a movie with Robert De Niro, Meryl Streep, and John Cazale, Walken still stands out.

FranciscoGios

Yeah like the person mentioned it above my comment; in the deep South U.S.A, your beliefs were/are more patriotic than your education, so if you were a Lutherian or a Baptist [profession] back in the day you were more respected by the people.

Brian's Dog

I went to highschool with one of his kids in the 90's, but this guy came and did several talks about his book of the same name and everyone assumed it was true. I don't know any more past that. But it was a rich family.

Onno Smits

After "Catch Me If You Can" Spielberg moved on to direct "The Terminal", again starring Tom Hanks, and again based on a true story. I highly recommend that one!

D Anthony

If you like this I'd think you'd enjoy The Thomas Crown Affair (1999). It's a romantic heist film starring Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo directed by John McTiernan (Die Hard). Also, someone already mentioned this but Matchstick Men (2003) with Nicolas Cage is one I'd highly recommend as well.

Noe Ramirez

I love this movie so good! Also I pause movies all the time when Im at home. Lol especially LOTR, I love those movies but trying to get through one without pausing is so hard for me. It's easy for me to get back to the same state I was watching it before, I just jump right into it, but I can see how it could be hard for other people.

Brad Lowry

How "Midnight Run" about a Competent Crook (Charles Grodin) being caught by Competent Bounty Hunter (Robert Deniro) and being interfered with by rival Competent Bounty Hunter (John Asthon) with the Incompetent FBI (led by the character played by Yaphet Kotto) and the Incompetent Mob (led by the character played by Dennis Farina) chasing them across the country. As Rich Eisen was mourning Charles Grodin's passing, he had Alan Sepinwall, Chief Media Critic for Rolling Stone, on his show to reminisce about Midnight Run calling it the "Casablanca of Buddy Movies."

Casey Dixon

The TV series "White Collar" is in the same taste of this movie. It took inspiration from the Real Frank Abagnale Jr, and he was a real conman and the story is true with a little embellishment.

jay
>>139532545

Dude, no joke, while watching this reaction I was thinking about how much George would love that show because of how much he talks about how he loves competence porn. Perfect recommendation. I had no clue it took inspiration from the real Frank! That's crazy
