This will premier on YouTube in about a month.

Hope you enjoy! ❤️🐑

(Full Reaction) Apollo 13

This was emotional, intense, and beautifully told. The strong performances from all of these wonderful actors makes this feel more like a documentary gone wrong than a movie. They really captured this true story so well.

Watched on: Starz on Amazon Prime / Runtime: 2:19:51

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

(Early Access) Hawkeye S1 E1&2

Happy Holidays! Here is my YT early access edit for Hawkeye S1 E1&2!

Get ready for holiday music, festive parties, and the cutest little golden retriever!

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

(Full Reaction) Daredevil: Born Again S1 E7-9 FINALE

This was a doozy of a season finale! Thank goodness S2 has already been announced and is coming up pretty soon! Knowing that this is just one part of a larger story is pretty exciting. It looks like next season is going to be super intense!

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: E7 - 42:34 / E8 - 51:37 E9 - 59:33

Hope you enjoy!!

(Full Reaction) Die Hard 2

Well, this was an action packed Christmas movie! John McClane gets mixed up in another terrorist plot at Washington Dulles International Airport. I was recently at this airport and was surprised at how big it was. Thankfully, my travels were extremely uneventful compared to the events of this film.

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: 2:03:22

This Week!

Happy Holidays! I can't believe that it's finally the magical week of Christmas. This time of year always feels so nostalgic. I still remember staying up late on Christmas Eve as a kid, convinced I could see Santa’s sleigh in the sky. Of course, it was really just airplanes flying in the distance. My mom would eventually catch me and tell me to go back to bed—but why did Christmas Eve always feel like the longest night of the year?

On Patreon this week, a very exciting Christmas movie called Die Hard 2 is coming your way! It takes place on Christmas eve, so that's the perfect time to watch it. The last few episodes of Daredevil: Born again are also coming your way, along with Apollo 13!

For YouTube early access, I'm posting Hawkeye S1 E1&2 and Stranger Things S2 E5&6 . This is the first time I'm posting two shows at a time, but since Hawkeye is only 6 episodes and takes place over the holidays, it's perfect to put up now!

Since I’ll be spending the holidays with my family, the new episodes for Stranger Things Season 5 will be posted next week.

I hope you have a wonderful holiday season! Wishing you all an incredible week filled with family, friends, laughter, and plenty of delicious food. ❤️

(Early Access) Miracle on 34th Street

Here's the Early Access YouTube edit for Miracle on 34th Street!

What a heartwarming movie filled with holiday spirit! The performances feel so genuine that it’s impossible not to get swept up in the warmth and magic of the story. I love how it balances whimsy with real emotional depth, making you believe in the wonder of Santa without it ever feeling cheesy.

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

(Early Access) Stranger Things S2 E3 & E4

Here is the early access Stranger Things S2 E3 & 4 reaction!!!

This will premier on YouTube in about a month.

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

[Full Reaction] It's A Wonderful Life (1946)

Whew! What a wonderful life indeed! This is such a warm, uplifting movie that really sticks with you long after it ends. The characters feel genuine, and the story has a comforting, timeless quality that makes it easy to get emotionally invested. It’s one of those films that reminds you to appreciate the little things and the people around you. Perfect for when you want something heartfelt and hopeful without being flashy.

Watched on: Amazon Prime / Runtime: 2:10:33

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

(Full Reaction) Daredevil: Born Again S1 E5-6

In these two episodes, the tension ramps up a lot and you can feel things slowly but deliberately falling into place. What’s really compelling is how the show continues to frame Fisk and Matt as mirrors of each other, even when they’re on completely different paths. You can really feel how much it costs them to suppress who they really are.

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: E5 - 41:29 / E6 - 44:48

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

[Full Reaction] Brother Bear (2003)

This movie was far more emotional than I expected. Be sure to have a box of tissues ready. I laughed, I cried, and felt every emotion in between. Brother Bear is a truly beautiful, heartwarming film and an emotional roller coaster from start to finish.

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: 1:32:54

Hope you enjoy!

This Week!

Hello!

How is Christmas next week?! Even though I've already decorated, baked endless amounts of Christmas cookies, and mostly finished wrapping presents, it still feels too soon. My family and I have a holiday tradition where we watch the movie The Holiday on Christmas Eve while eating fettuccine Alfredo. If you don't know, they celebrate Christmas Eve in the movie by having fettuccine Alfredo. It's the perfect movie/meal combo!

To celebrate the holiday season, the most requested Christmas movie is coming your way...It's A Wonderful Life!!! I'm looking forward to finally seeing this since it's such a classic.

Two more episodes of Daredevil: Born Again will also be posted. This show is so stressful but also so good!

Continuing on my journey of watching Disney movie's I've never seen, my reaction to Brother Bear is next.

For YouTube reactions, Stranger Things S2 episodes 3-4 are coming your way and Miracle On 34th Street. This was such a cute Christmas movie with beautiful message about having faith!

Hope you have a wonderful week filled with holiday magic! ❤️

(Early Access) Die Hard

Get your best holiday attire on because we're going to a Christmas party at Nakatomi Plaza! It should be a pretty eventful time! I hear John McClane is going to battle it out with Severus Snape. Wishing you all the most wonderful holiday season! Yippee-ki-yay!

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

(Early Access) Stranger Things S2 E1-2

Here is my YouTube edit for Stranger Things S2 E1-2!!! It's so fun to go back and see what my reaction was to these earlier episodes now that I know where this story is headed.

This will premier on YT in about a month.

Hope you enjoy!! ❤️

[Full Reaction] Miracle On 34th Street (1947)

What a heartwarming movie filled with holiday spirit! The performances feel so genuine that it’s impossible not to get swept up in the warmth and magic of the story. I love how it balances whimsy with real emotional depth, making you believe in the wonder of Santa without it ever feeling cheesy.

Watched on: Paramount+ on Amazon / Runtime: 1:36:36

Hope you enjoy!

(Full Reaction) Daredevil: Born Again S1 E3-4

Wow, these episodes are way more intense than the first two! 😳 The action, the tension, the storytelling were all keeping me on the edge of my seat. I’m officially hooked and already craving the next episode. This show is really pulling me in, and I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtimes: E3 - 46:07 / E4 - 54:01

Hope you enjoy!!

[Full Reaction] The Naked Gun (2025)

This was such a fun, feel good flick! It honored the original series so well while also carving out it's own world. There were a lot of familiar faces, including one we've seen from the X-Men movies. Overall, I enjoyed this tremendously!

Watched on: Paramount+ / Runtime: 1:25:21

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

It's A Wonderful Life Poll

One of the most requested movie reactions for Christmas has been It's A Wonderful Life (1946). I'd love to finally see this classic movie! When I was checking to see if it was streaming anywhere, I noticed there are a few different versions of it. Please help me choose which version of the movie I should watch!

This Week!

Hello everyone! I just looked at my calendar and saw that Christmas is only two weeks away! I'm genuinely surprised by how quickly this year has been flying by. Thankfully, I've done most of my Christmas shopping and now just have to wrap everything.

This past week was filled with making Christmas cookies and fudge! I have way too many baked goods in my house and have been making cookie plates for my neighbors.

This week, I'm finishing up The Naked Gun series by watching the new 2025 version starring Liam Neeson! I'm also posting the next two episodes of Daredevil: Born Again and the original Miracle on 34th Street!

I put a poll up on my Instagram asking if you thought Die Hard was a Christmas movie and the votes were overwhelming YES! The full reaction was posted last year, but it never got a YouTube edit. So, I'll be posting that this week! I guess the real question is, does Die Hard 2 qualify as a Christmas movie too?

For the YouTube edits, Stranger Things is also coming your way!!! Since the first half of S5 just dropped on Netflix and Ted Lasso is officially over, it's time for Stranger Things. Since I've already posted YT edits for S1, I'll be jumping into S2.

Alright, I'm off to work on The Naked Gun movie post, which will be up by tomorrow.

Hope your weekend was fun. Wishing you a great week! ❤️

(Early Access) Ted Lasso S3 E12

The journey has officially come to an end. Here is my Ted Lasso S3 E13 YouTube reaction! This has been such a fun show to react to and I'm really going to miss these characters.

Hope you enjoy! ❤️🐑

(Early Access) Dungeons and Dragons

Here is my Dungeons and Dragons YT early access edit! This was an absolute blast to watch! It was action packed from beginning to end.

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

[Full Reaction] Step Brothers (2008)

After casually checking up on this movie for the past three years, it finally became available on a streaming service! Turns out, it was worth the wait. Not only was this hysterical but the cast was filled with so many wonderful actors.

It's also a Christmas movie! If Die Hard is considered a Christmas movie then I think this qualifies too.

Watched on: Paramount+ / Runtime: 1:37:51

Hope you enjoy!

(Full Reaction) Daredevil: Born Again S1 E1-2

What an intense way to start the show! Deeply unsettling. There was so much happening right out of the gate. I'm glad we got to see our favorite trio again. They tied in the previous Daredevil show very well while also establishing their own groove for this new series. Fisk is still as terrifying as ever. I don't know who this Adam is but he better run for the hills!

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: E1 - 1:00:49 / E2 - 49:11

Hope you enjoy!

(Full Reaction) Tarzan (1999)

Not only were these visuals beautiful but Phil Collins created the most catchy soundtrack! I had these songs in my head for the rest of the day. The opening of this movie did not need to be so dramatic though 😭. I'm glad the rest of the movie had a much more comedic and uplifting tone...for the most part.

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: 1:36:49

Hope you enjoy!

This Week!

When I first started my channel, Step Brothers was one of the movies I really wanted to see. I figured it would be a silly comedy but worth the reaction. I checked every streaming service and could not find it for three years. I randomly checked on the movie a few days ago, on my channel's 3rd birthday, and saw it is finally streaming on Paramount! So you know I had to put it on the schedule!!!

Daredevil: Born Again is the next project up on my MCU journey. The original Daredevil show was so enjoyable, but a little gruesome. I'm curious to see if the show has a lighter tone now that it is part of the MCU or it it's going to feel like the same show it was before. Either way, I'm excited to go back into Matt's world.

As you know, I've been watching older Disney classics that I either haven't seen or haven't seen since I was a child. Tarzan is next! I listen to Disney songs on my Spotify playlist, so I'm familiar with the Tarzan music but don't remember the storyline. Let me know what Disney movies you'd like me to check out!!

For the YouTube edits, this week marks the final Ted Lasso upload. I'm sad to say goodbye to this joyful show but super psyched to start putting up my Stranger Things reactions, which start next week. Also, you're getting my Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves reaction! That was such a fun movie!!

Hope you have a wonderful week!!

(Early Access) Ted Lasso S3 E11

Here is the early access YouTube edit of Ted Lasso S3 E11!!

Hope you enjoy! ❤️🎉

(Full Reaction) Stranger Things S5 E3-4

These two episodes were fantastic!!! Kevin McCallister would be so proud! Despite there being such a big cast, each character has such a satisfying storyline. I think these two episodes were even better than episodes 1 and 2. This was a great set up for the second half of the season.

Watched on: Netflix / Runtime: E3- 1:09:26 / E4 - 1:26:46

(Full Reaction) Stranger Things S5 E1-2

It's time for Stranger Things S5!!!! It’s been such a slow build up to this season. I wasn’t sure what to expect. We dove right into the action! It’s great to see the old Hawkins gang together again. This season feels very cinematic, the tone is definitely darker, and the stakes feel higher. The cast has grown up so much since we last saw them. It's just nice to be back in this world again, even if it is scary!

The next two episodes will be up tomorrow!  

Watched on: Netflix / Runtime: E1 - 1:11:28 / E2 - 57:53

(Early Access) Planes, Trains and Automobiles

Happy Thanksgiving! Here is the early access YT edit for Planes, Trains and Automobiles!

This movie was both nightmarish and hilarious!! John Candy and Steve Martin played their roles beautifully. At times, this movie felt too realistic! I'm just glad I don't have to travel for the holidays. 😂

Hope you enjoy! ❤️

(Full Reaction) Captain America: Brave New World

It was awesome seeing Sam take on the Captain America mantle in a feature film. I didn't realize until after the movie ended that the original Ross, William Hurt, had passed away a few years ago. He did such a wonderful job in the role. There was a post credit scene at the very end that was so fun and mysterious! My guess is the MCU is about to get a whole lot more complicated.

Watched on: Disney+ / Runtime: 2:00:13
