📅 This Week Feb 24-March 2 2025
Added 2025-02-24 22:04:36 +0000 UTC
I owe you guys The Mummy Returns from last week - I was under the weather at the end of last week so sorry about the delay on that. Will have it posted for you asap! Thanks for understanding.
Also this week, more Sein, more Trek, more Last Of Us aaaaaaand it was such a close poll last week that I decided to watch both Batman and Excalibur! Looking forward to it all!
Good news for Seinfeld on YouTube - The eps I reposted (after studio blocked/removed them) have stayed up with no copyright claims so for now I'll continue having them edited and posting Early Access here. Thanks for your patience as I waited to see if it made sense to continue editing them for YT or not 👍
If anyone here isn't actually subscribed to my YouTube channel I would love if you would! I had hoped to maybe hit 100k subs by my Bday in April. I think it will likely be closer to June or July but we'll see!
Can you believe it's going to be March already?! I, for one, am ready for spring! 🤞We still have tons of snow here, the most we've had in years, but really hoping it warms up a bit soon!
♡♡♡♡♡ Thank you all for being here ♡♡♡♡♡
Hope everyone has a great week! ♡♡♡
xoxo
Jen ♡

Check out my pinned post ALL CONTENT , with everything listed alphabetically! It's always pinned at the top of my page with links to schedule, polls + request site!
Also check out Collections tab to see things sorted by genre, decade and series!
*Regarding Email Notifications: I know it can be annoying to be emailed every single time I post something. You can change your email notifications on the left hand panel in 'Settings' under 'Email Notifications' (desktop)
*Regarding Name in Credits: If you're on a credits tier it can take up to a week to see your name in the credits (though usually within a few days). This is because I sometimes work ahead to get videos ready to post before they go live. If you do not see your name after 1 week please message me and I will make sure to add it. Credits will be listed as your name shows on Patreon. If you don't want your name in credits please message me and I'll remove you from list.
*Spoilers: PLEASE no spoilers in comments or in direct messages to me. No "hints" or trying to lead me in the right direction or asking if I want to know something. The point of these reactions is for me to discover things as I go and to be surprised. Thank you, I appreciate it!
*Replies to Messages/Comments: Across all platforms I now get hundreds of comments and messages every single day. I do my best to return messages but please do not be offended if I do not reply or if replies take a while. Many larger channels hire people to help them answer messages or reply to comments. I read all comments and messages myself, even if I don't have time to reply. If you leave a comment or message please know I received it and I appreciate it.
Have you checked out my MOVIE REQUEST SITE ?
Every Patron can submit movie requests there and have unlimited upvotes. I use this site to make schedule decisions and polls so make sure you go upvote what you want to see!

Lets all remember to check the request site to add any we can each month and vote on what others have added logically like Spock there has to be a certain amount of votes to get to these polls so vote. Andas a newer subscriber on youtube, found two months ago almost, we have to all like as many of the videos there as we can

I'm so glad that "Excalibur" is coming up it's the best film dealing with the Arthurian legend. "The Mummy Returns" is great horror adventure fun.
The "Batman" '66 film is great campy fun, very comic book.

I look forward to watching Batman with you (and it goes without saying DS9/TNG). I loved the series as a kid, in the 80s it was on in the UK in the mornings before school. I love the film even more.

EXCALIBUR! The movie so epic they decided to just take the soundtrack from pre-existing operas. Cannot wait to see if you notice all the famous actors.

You don't owe us anything. You're pregnant and have far more important things to worry about. If you feel bad rest up we understand.

Absolutely. The movie request site is an invaluable tool despite the downsides I mentioned. I think it is the most efficient way to gauge the audiences movie preferences. The only way she could optimize the usage of it would be if she made single issue posts enouraging the usage of the site as opposed to tagging details about the site at the end of schedule updates. Other than that, nature of the beast 🤷🏻♂️

The look, the feel, the music, the irony-free faithfulness to its source…
Anything you ever want to say about Big 80’s Fantasy, Excalibur will turn up to 11. 😎
And for the Batman ‘66 movie, forget all you think you know… 😅

Amarant, well said. That is the nature of a request system (w/ongoing database) of any reactor. In a rare instance, your entry of a popular movie can get to 15+ upvotes, then has a chance to get noticed. I also wonder how many upvotes are by those who are no longer patrons. I don't have any solutions to suggest. Nice aspects are Jen doesn't have to personally field a zillion individual requests, and she can use the database for reference.
My core reactors happen to be 3 female Canadians, Jen being one of them. The other two each have a pool of movies that is a collection of a single movie entry from each current high tier patron (only one entry per patron), and randomly select movies from the pool for a reaction.

True. More people need to use the movie request site. All the top voted movies are essentially from the first few months Jen launched the site. Between 50 and 150 upvotes. If you suggest a super popular movie now, about the best you can hope for is between 10 and 15 upvotes, and that's if you really knocked it out of the park with your movie suggestion.

I hope you are / will soon be fully recovered.
Yay for Excalibur, and here's hoping The French Connection eventually makes it.

Ah, The Mummy Returns. A movie about a mummy trying to return an overdue book before the library closes. They have weird hours and he's got s*** to do. Can he make it in time or will he have to pay the late fee? Please no spoilers 🤪

Exactly. I try to tell people that when they suggest something here. A lot of people don't seem to know about it.

I do hope you're feeling better soon, if not now.
Packed line-up! 😃
I've been looking forward to Starship Mine since you started The Next Jen. Fab ep.

Excalibur and Batman 66. I feel spoiled. And of course Trek and Seinfeld. Big week.

No shade at The Nagus, by any means either. Really solid ST week.

Holy Jenny Flicks, Batman! The 1966 version of Batman, while not thought of highly but most younger Batman fans, is a ton of fun and does not take itself seriously.

Appreciate all
you do for us! This looks like a busy week for you. Can’t wait!

Starship Mine fucking slaps. I'm even tempted to describe the remainder of S6 as something along the lines of "straight bangers from here on out." That might be a little overhyped but, like, not by a whole lot. We're closing out strong, at least in my opinion for whatever that's worth.

The Nagus is a great early DS9 episode, I hope you enjoy it.

I like Starship Mine. Looks like the writers were inspired by Die Hard.
