Movie Reaction Poll

Vote on what I should watch and react to next! This Poll will end most likely Sunday and I'll choose the TOP 2 to react to next week on Monday & Wednesday!

No worries, I plan on actually prolonging these recommendations so don't trip if you don't see your selection on here first!

Comments

Would love to see "Warrior" on the list, with Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton. Such a great movie, really think you'd lik eit

Thomas Myers

Clocking it in here: we got The Predator & The Last Crusade, and for Friday we’ll do Harold & Maude.

James Adams

I'm doing the same thing.

Robert Kruger

Quite surprised that Tommy Boy didn't get more votes before. It's one of the top 5 comedies made in my opinion.

Robert Kruger

Yep Unforgiven for sure

Bert Taverner

Kevin, I think you are my spirit animal lol. I love Manhunter. As much as people like The Red Dragon, Manhunter is better and not just cause of 80s William Petersen lol. I would have to say Hannibal Rising was pretty good too :)

GamerGal8684

A couple movies I would highly recommend: 1) Manhunter. Michael Mann's first film, and the first time Hannibal Lecter showed up on film. Unsurprisingly, the soundtrack is great, and there's several fantastic performances. 2) Unforgiven. One of, if not *the* best Western, ever. Won 4 Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director for Clint Eastwood. Gene Hackman won for best supporting actor.

Dark City (Directors Cut) and Goonies. Tough choice though because Harold and Maude and Chinatown and Primal Fear.

Chinatown, Harold and Maude and Excalibur :)

kimsmk

If you ever do get around to watching DARK CITY, be sure to watch the Director's Cut. The Theatrical Cut just reveals everything in the first 5 minutes.

Heath Cowart

dude. can we please get Primal Fear to second place? I mean yes Predator is iconic but I feel like Primal Fear has been on the poll forever and, I mean, come on. it's Edward Norton. lol.

Nikki Sonrisa

Yay, Excalibur made the list - though it does't seem to be a popular choice yet... Excalibur and Chinatown for me.

Christiaan Van den Akker

James, I've been meaning to ask: how do you view these films? Are you streaming/Blu-Raying to a 4K TV or large screen attached to your computer or what? Obviously, there are more streaming options in the US than here in Aus but are you viewing them in at least high def/4K? Just wondering.

Brett Coster

Yep, 10 Rillington Place would be awesome. First time I think that I saw John Hurt (just checked IMDB, he was earlier in A Man for All Seasons, but not as extensive a part as 10 Rillington Place).

Brett Coster

Lots of great movies but I’ll pick Harold and Maude until you make it a Friday flick.

Randall Bott

let me help with that. Dark City

Bd Blake

can we consider bringing back ‘into the wild’ 2007 on the polls in the future? giving it one more shot? i just know you’d love it 🙏🏽

Lily

Just checking before I vote for 10 Cloverfield Lane; have you already seen Cloverfield?

Brittyn Lindsey

Trying to decide between Chinatown, Harold and Maude and Dark City.

Sonia Deepak

If you haven't found it yet it's at the beginning of August. If you're on someone's patreon page and not your home page you can type in a search bar for posts on the upper right of the screen.

I got excited for a second because I thought I saw 10 Rillington Place and was like "Wow, this movie is weirdly more beloved than I thought." But yeah, Last Crusade this time. Kinda unfair leaving you hangin in the trilogy. Seems like it could pull through at this point

Bert Taverner

Wait did I miss Temple Of Doom? When did that happen? I'm running as much as someone can "run" online to search and find it. My night just got incredibly better if this reaction exists.........

Ashley Summerfield

Where did all the Chinatown support go?

Yours truly, Johnny Dollar

I voted across the board for a number of this list: Indiana Jones & Last Crusade (really was the best to end it on) Primal Fear (Edward Norton's arrival on cinema) Chinatown (one of the best original scripts based on the Rape of Owens Valley in 1907) Goonies (absolute classic) Predator (the strength off that cast) Die Hard 2 (which is even better when watched back to back with Die Hard) Nobody (a new classic) Excalibur (one of best tellings of the King Arthur mythology by John Boorman with a very young, upcoming excellent cast)

Jon Bradley

Ok I get predator, I get last crusade, 10 cloverfield land getting so much love here over legit classics is just tough to watch. It’s fine btw but like Harold and Maude exists…c’mon bahahahaha

Cal Graham

Team dark city

J.S.Leeds

So many films that have been done to death by other reactors\reviewers. Give some love to the underdogs for a change. (Can I vote for Primal Fear three times?)

2old4gamez

Can I vote for 'Harold & Maude' twice? I'm guessing not so I'm only voting for it so as not to give another film on the list any more of a lead than it has. 50th anniversary bluray just came out so I gotta get that.

CODA is great. Definitely recommend it, specifically to second generation Americans (or any other country) whose parents didn't speak English (or the native language) well. I didn't expect how relatable this film is.

DARK CITY Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gt9HkO-cGGo

Bd Blake

Going Last Crusade and Goonies. James, also sometime might check out CODA on Apple TV+. One of the best films this year and and getting a lot of awards love this awards season. Currently pretty much a lock for a Best Picture nomination and currently the frontrunner for Best Supporting Actor currently for this coming Oscars. Film is also very funny and emotional. Think you would really like it.

Cody Price

Wow what a list!! So many favorites on here.

Irish Lass

Predator is one of those "must sees" for anyone who proclaims they know what an 80s action movie is. (and thank you for adding the year because this IP suffers from horrible mass-rebooting)

Cifer

Dark City is one of the most underrated sci-fi movies of all time.

You should also check out 'Arlington road' in the future. Amazing cast and acting, plus you get to see Jeff Bridges playing a very serious, dark character. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0137363/

Come on Dark City! Starting to feel like Gi-Hun picking horses
