Update on Upcoming Movies

Hello Everyone -

Navi here! I have been told that there have been some confusion on how movies are being selected and what is happening with all the movie polls that have been posted in the past. So, I am here to shed some light.

Our goal is to watch 3-4 top choices from each of the poll we listed this year (listing top choices from each poll below). We will be finishing up Kung Fu Panda series soon which was to test out DreamWorks trends on Youtube. We will also watch "How to Train Your Dragon" series to complete that reaction.

After Kung Fu Panda, our goal will be to watch top 4 choices from Quentin Tarantino poll, followed by top 4 picks from Studio Ghibli.

Since halloween, is around the concern, we will be watching 3 horror movies that can be released on Youtube in October. These movies are selected based on Youtube poll published few weeks ago (The Thing, IT Part 2 and Blair Witch) and will be sprinkled in between poll choices.

For Christmas/Holidays, we will be watching all Harry Potter movies, since some of us consider it holiday movies and it was winner of Movie Series poll.

If all goes as planned then this is all we would be able to watch until end of this year and will start 2024 with Pixar movies followed by Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Hunger Games. Around this time, we will publish another poll to make plans for 2024.

Bear in mind that if there is a premiere movie such as Mission Impossible 7 or Barbie, then things will be adjusted accordingly to make room for those reactions. Same if a specific team member is on PTO and they are needed then we will watch something else in between to make sure our editor has one movie per week to edit.

Hopefully this long answer will help clear some things on upcoming plan for movies.

Yooooo

Michael Diaz

Will yall add the scream movies as well

Terald Freeman

Thanks for letting us know about this schedule! Very excited for the rest of the year! CANNOT wait for Harry Potter! I was going to cancel my subscription, but y’all won me over with this! Much love!

Martin

Art imitates life and all that. "Grave of the Fireflies" should be something everyone sees so the thing that everyone sees doesn't happen again. Anything dealing with WWII, a war that killed 60-80 million people, should not be a happy reaction nor should the lessons from the worst war in human history ever be ignored.

Chaos T

will you guys be fitting in Across the Spiderverse or have to many couch members already seen it?? i would love to at least see a review of what you guys though

Matt Carson

Jesus Christ, I’m sorry you’re getting these ignorant replies. I think I’m canceling too.

Bruna G

Yesssss studio Ghibli!!! I have been waiting for you to finally do those! Especially princess mononoke, one of my fave films of all time

Amanda P

Mob K.O.

Hoped for Porco Rocco meaby next time. Hope you enjoy Wall-E one of my favorits of all time.

Christian Drejer

Hope they squeeze into/across the spiderverse

MarcusDiggler

#sundayrundown Both Artemis and Kid Flash left the team to pursue normal lives. They attend Stanford University.

Johnathan E Llorente

Um it's almost blasphemous to not watch Reservoir Dogs.

Thee Chronicle

As someone that’s part of that community myself, my stance has always been to let people enjoy what they want to enjoy, I’m not going to force anyone to boycott anything that I do, and I don’t hold it against anyone for not. There’s other ways to be an ally than by being forced to all think exactly as I do. That’s dangerous ground, and a dangerous way to proceed, and one that many people and groups throughout history have done really bad things in the name of. While I personally hate Rowling and will never support her, I already own the movies and it’s no money outta my pocket and into hers by rewatching what I’ve already owned for decades, and I DO support the Normies, so I plan on continuing to give THEM my money by watching along with them. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

Jeff Long

Thanks for the clarification. Can't wait for the Studio Ghibli and HP movies.

Johnny Blue

Makes sense, though I was just congratulating their taste(?) in general. I’ll admit I’m probably most eager for The Thing, but a great point was made regarding the lack of outrage for the Tarantino/Weinstein produced stuff.

Champion Bescos

The outrage of the Harry Potter stuff becomes meaningless when the people here voted for the movie series to be reacted to.

Chaos T

THE THING!… Fuck yeah, favorite movie of all time.

Kay Bee Baby

Major W to the Normies for Harry Potter, The Thing, greatest hits from Tarantino and Miyazaki, and The Planet of the Apes series.

Champion Bescos

so excited for kill bill

Jayden Shepherd

HP and quentin.yassss

I R NEO

Awesome thank you! I was wondering what was going on with Harry Potter, I felt like it won ages ago and was forgotten. This clears everything up, appreciate the post!

bits

Becareful with those studio ghibli reactions on youtube....they do not play when it comes to strike on channels

Rey

YAY Harry Potter finally!!!

AnEnthusiasticKoala

thanks so much for the clarity, I dont care which reactions come out when I just wanted to know whether they were going to be done.

Jacob Castle

Tarantino films produced by Weinstein are on their list. No outrage yet.

Chaos T

Finally getting It Chapter 2

Tekno

I would love a Once Upon a Time in Hollywood reaction one day. Thank you for the update!

Com1xguy

Glad that Studio Ghibli reactions are still in the pipeline.

Saifu

I am SO excited for Planet if the Apes. Y’all don’t even know. That trilogy is a masterpiece.

AvatarJordy

Yeah, I suppose that's true. Really I'm just a little bitter they'll be missing Reservoir Dogs and Jackie Brown.

K Murray

I fear you are missing the point of The Normies... they just want to watch fun shows/movies. They are not hardcore movie buffs that might find Tarantino's evolution as a filmmaker genuinely interesting. I mean, we can barely get them to stop talking over the films - and that's fine, because that is who they are. Some of them might continue to watch the rest of his films on their own, but they have FAR too many things on their plate as a group to do all of them - that's why they only watch the top 4 from their polls.

Tim Arnold

Your almost done with the kungfu panda movies? I havnt even seen the reaction to the first one posted...

MASTER VOS

Please, if you guys are going to do Tarantino, just do all of his movies. There's not many and you can see his evolution as a filmmaker. At the very least, make sure you watch the four you've chosen in chronological order!

K Murray

Thank you for clarifying looking forward to it, I had no idea you guys were going to do the Planet of the Apes Trilogy, it really is amazing hope you all do at some point because damn that will be so much fun and those who haven't seen it have no idea what they'd be getting into in the best way.

Macs

Jesus you're still here? Didn't you say you were canceling your subscription a few months back because you said the Normies were "transphobic" 🙄

Captain K'nuckles

LOTS of great movies coming up!! That’s awesome guys!

Matt Flanagan

Can't wait for Hunger Games, Pixar and Tarantino movies! Hope you consider watching Wes Anderson movies in the future/adding them on future polls. I like to recommend The Royal Tenenbaums, Grand Budapest Hotel, Fantastic Mr. Fox and Isle of Dogs

Katharina

MrTwiddles There is nothing wrong with supporting JK Rowling, just because you say so doesn't make it true. Me and many others are stil big fans, which doesn't make us hateful or whatever. get over yourself.

xMaestro21

Really looking forward to all the Tarantino content!

Kevin

"Grave of the Fireflies" is going to be a hell of a reaction.

Chaos T

Consumer boycotts are generally dumb and don't work unless that boycott is extremely specific and regional. Bullying people over consumer behavior just turns people off to the cause that's being supported. People also lend themselves to being called hypocrites when taking stances like this. How many books in your life have you read that were created by horrible individuals? Do you still watch films created by awful human beings? How many children did it take through slave labor to build the technology you used to type your protest here? Pulp Fiction and other Tarantino films on the list were produced by Harvey Weinstein. Weinstein did objectively far worse things than Rowling (being punished by the legal system because of his actions) thus should they not watch any Tarantino films? Harry Potter didn't create those laws; politicians did. Stop projecting.

Chaos T

Thank you guys for replying to my comments, can't wait for Harry Potter :)

Rosemary

Well, that, too. They're damn scary.

Gábor Szabolcs Koszper

I notice those same folks never speak up about movies like Django or Inglorious Basterds - both making money for someone who is actually in jail for their crimes and not just a self-important pariah who can't seem to shut her mouth and keep her hateful misguided opinions to herself. It's one thing to stand up for your beliefs, and another entirely to hop on the loudest bandwagon and shake your fist at the sky.

Jessi

Sadly it didn't won on the poll :( Maybe one day

The Normies

We will try to mix these up

The Normies

Fish don't fry in the kitchen. Beans don't burn on the grill. Took a whole lotta tryin' Just to get up that hill. Now we're up in the big leagues Gettin' our turn at bat.

Thicc Thanos

It is sadly lost forever :(

The Normies

Yes, we have already seen The Thing and it should be on Patreon next few weeks

The Normies

Thank you for relaying your concern. We have made multiple statements in the past that while some of us belong to the LGBTQ+ community, we have always been strong allies. We have participated in protests and conversation that have been happening around us. While we do understand not supporting Harry Potter due to JK Rowling's stand, but we believe that we can benefit from actually having a conversation about this topic through these reactions and shed light to organizations that we and/or you can support that directly help LGBTQ communities. If we decide to not watch these movies completely then it will stop all types of conversation that could shed light on harmful practices/laws being enacted to harm LGBTQ+ community and steps that we as individuals can take to help.

The Normies

when JK Rowling comes out and says publicly she feels supported in her views because she keeps getting big checks for her licensing agreements, then yes reacting to her movies is showing her support. Does that mean the Normies as people support her beliefs? No. Of course not. But they will still be showing her support when they do those reactions, per her beliefs about how she feels supported. And that's the choice they need to make. If you don't want to support JK Rowling and her views, then don't do the things she finds supportive. Not watching Harry Potter isn't really all that hard. Even if fans vote for it.

MrTwiddles

Oh gotcha lmao i thought you meant scary as in the content of the movies

Robert

Very glad about your choice to watch Harry Potter, despite a very small but loud minority being unhinged and trying to cancel everyone who supports it. Can't wait!

xMaestro21

I immediately thought what Marketa was thinking about their choice to watch Harry Potter, but of course there would already be someone like Sara in the comments lmao. I am glad they are watching the movies, i hope they also watch fantastic beasts. Ranas playthrough of Hogwarts Legacy was also fantastic. Just give up, most normal people dont support this cancel culture crap.

xMaestro21

The fans voted for it, so tough shit

Albatross Johnson

Well, I heard reaction channels got obliterated.

Gábor Szabolcs Koszper

It literally says right there that they will complete the series lol

Loco Logic

Rando calrissian

What

Robert

God wallet is so funny, the way he think he deserves love, stupid machine

Cl4-tp gaming Channel

I heard scary things about Ghibli. I hope you take care and know what you're doing.

Gábor Szabolcs Koszper

Yes, we will do Spider verse soon. Hopefully!

The Normies

Watching and or liking a movie/movie series that has a problematic creator in no way shape or form is a reflection of your own beliefs and it's irrational and a simple minded view of the world to think so.

xnifl

Spider-Verse tho!

SpeedyCat19

Some of those actors and writers are LGBT people. I can see where you're coming from but it would be unfair to *those* people too that worked on the series for over a decade if everyone boycotted the movies just because the creator is a POS.

iJashin

Sara youre absolutely out of line

FryLord

having allies doesn't mean getting everything you want all the time... there are much bigger fish to fry in this fight than wizard movies

Jim Watkins

i hope it won't be all tarantino, followed by all ghibli... it would be nice to mix them up a bit for some variety

Jim Watkins

Did you guys recover that dungeons and dragons reaction micky mentioned in a podcast? Or is it lost forever

Diego

Who is to say they won’t use part of the money made from those react to help support LGBTQ+ movement ?

Cassim Montilla

I saw confirmation that you’ll be watching The Thing and blacked out from joy.

Ethan Vaughn

Well ATSV just came out so I assume that will be a priority soon

Zack Aranda

Harry Potter, hunger games? Can’t wait to see that along with the other cool choices

Joab Taylor

Get over yourself. Nobody's forcing you to watch those movies.

Zack Aranda

Cool, jk Rowling content. Remember in your sunny reactions when you made that statement that you were allies? I’ve No Healthcare now in the uk, thanks to her campaign. She helped stop the ban on gay conversion therapy. Some allies you are. You care more about actors and writers than lgbt people.

Sara-Jayne

I wish pirates of the Caribbean was the series you guys react to

SIM

YESSS HARRY POTTER & HUNGER GAMES!!! I’M PSYCHED!
