Pretty sure he’s already done Aliens, but skipped over the original. Could be wrong though…
John Dracup
2025-03-20 08:06:31 +0000 UTCI think he has Alien somewhere in the collections area. But he does still have Aliens on to do. I'm soo ready for em.: ] And I agree on the extended cut for 3.Even 4. : ] But , Aliens!! Gonna be one helluva ride w/Mr. LB!

2025-03-20 08:03:42 +0000 UTCAliens... as in the Alien series? If so, would love to see your reacts to Alien and Alien 3! (If you do 3, I recommend the assembly cut).
John Dracup
2025-03-20 03:59:52 +0000 UTCThe Wire will get my vote unless Batman The Animated Series , or Mystery Science Theater 3000 are on the Poll. Otherwise , I am pretty sure he has seen anything else TV wise that is in my Top 5 of All Time. (The Twilight Zone , Fringe and OG Trek.) So 2% for The Wire for sure with both of us. : ]

2025-03-01 22:58:44 +0000 UTCYou asked the question how could I possibly compare the two shows while proclaiming its historical validity as a principal reason for it's intrinsic value. I'm simply responding to your question.

2025-02-28 20:46:54 +0000 UTCPersonally, I’d rather focus on talking positively about the shows I want to see, rather than tearing down a show I don’t enjoy. We all have different tastes, and at the end of the day, we’re all here as supporters. And I think it’s only logical to avoid spoiling a new viewer. Not just in terms of plot, but also in shaping their expectations. If you go into a show constantly thinking about its flaws or waiting for it to go downhill, it takes away from the experience. Sometimes, the best way to enjoy something is with a fresh and open mind.
Reisning
2025-02-28 15:58:18 +0000 UTCI agree! The Wire is amazing it's just been on the suggestion list awhile so I just thought I would throw that one in the mix :)
Bray
2025-02-28 15:54:40 +0000 UTCAnd your point being? I was born and raised in Norway, and I know my history well. I also know that most of what we read about the Vikings was written centuries later, often by outsiders, so of course, there are gaps and inaccuracies. That being said, I still don’t have a problem with the things you’re mentioning. Sure, historical accuracy isn’t the show’s strongest point. Harald and his “best friend” Halfdan being an obvious example, when in reality, they were father and son. Many characters in the show never actually lived in the same timeline. But honestly, I don’t see why that’s such a big issue. I still enjoy it and have watched it multiple times. And it’s not just because I’m Norwegian. I have friends who love it, and friends who don’t, but I don’t know anyone who hates it or is upset by it. At the end of the day, it’s a TV show meant to entertain, and for me, it does exactly that.
Reisning
2025-02-28 15:49:07 +0000 UTCVery very loosely rooted in historical events since vikings didn't really write anything down. You can find more inaccuracies about the show than actual facts. And how can you not compare the shows when the lead actors from both SOA and Vikings look like identical twins, and the rest of the Vikings resemble a biker gang from the 20th century with hairstyles not period correct whatsoever. Weapons, armor, helmets, and general wardrobe costumes were also all over the place with some being centuries apart from common usage or invention. They show mountains in Denmark and most of Sweden, which is a joke because please find me a single mountain anywhere near where the story takes place. And I haven't even touched on the unnecessary drama and romantic plot lines that drag on and on and fill up time unnecessarily to drag this show out additional episodes.

2025-02-28 14:12:38 +0000 UTCIf he watches an Idris Elba show it better be The Wire.
Scott Asher
2025-02-28 04:18:12 +0000 UTCJust to put it out there.. R.I.P. Gene Hackman. (1930-2025) His films will live on. : [
Madmanmarz1981
2025-02-28 03:11:29 +0000 UTCI get being passionate about a show you want to see, but just because someone doesn’t comment or participate doesn’t mean they aren’t "real" supporters. I’ve been here for years, watching most uploads, but I never comment, until replying to two of your comments today. Everyone supports in their own way
Reisning
2025-02-28 02:46:06 +0000 UTCI get that Vikings isn’t for everyone, but I think it stands out because it blends history with storytelling in a way that’s both engaging and visually stunning. Unlike Sons of Anarchy, which is pure fiction, Vikings is rooted in real historical events, characters, and Norse culture. It’s fascinating to see how the show portrays the Viking Age and its gradual decline. So I don't see the comparison. That being said, if I were a reactor, I wouldn’t want to know too much beforehand, especially not opinions about how many "good" seasons there are. It’s like watching something, but in the back of your head, you’re already expecting a drop in quality, which can take away from the experience. I’ve personally been waiting for him to start Vikings for two years now! I don’t comment at all, but I always try to participate in polls.
Reisning
2025-02-28 02:34:44 +0000 UTCHow about Luther with Idris Elba? Great show
Bray
2025-02-27 21:23:26 +0000 UTCClay Pigeons (movie) PLEASE!!
Bray
2025-02-27 21:21:26 +0000 UTCJust a FYI Sir. When The Sopranos Season 3 premiered , it was 2 hours.(Meaning Episodes 1 and 2) I was doin a bit or research an realized I had forgotten that. And it appears that was the only time during it's run. I dunno if that will matter or not. Just thought I would mention it. It's a cool factoid anyway: ]
Madmanmarz1981
2025-02-27 13:07:43 +0000 UTCIt's just so bloody long. I think it would be better if not every show he watches is an eternity project at the same time. Maybe in Dexter's slot after he finishes that, or if he gets sick of Vikings.
Teth
2025-02-27 08:30:48 +0000 UTCAt least the first couple of seasons are pretty good, but I wouldn't recommend watching the whole thing. Hopefully we'll move on to better and shorter shows after that.
Teth
2025-02-27 08:26:41 +0000 UTCFinish The Shining and watch the sequel Doctor Sleep, please.
Teth
2025-02-27 08:23:47 +0000 UTCScrew that clown seen that movie when I was 8 and hated clowns eversince

2025-02-27 07:49:37 +0000 UTCIf your a TJ Punisher fan , look up Dirty Landry short film on YouTube. It's a TJ love letter to The Punisher. A-Fucking-Mazing! : ]
Madmanmarz1981
2025-02-27 07:31:37 +0000 UTCPunisher 2004 with Thomas Jane is such a great movie for it's time. It's even got John Travolta and a whole host of stellar cast!
Bob Renholder
2025-02-27 01:53:16 +0000 UTCBro, they are nothing alike... SOA was about the power dynamic between a young warrior, an aging gang leader and the family matriarch. Vikings is about.... oh wait. Anyways, Vikings don't even ride motorcycles, its completely different.
Scott Asher
2025-02-26 08:51:59 +0000 UTCNawwwww bump that my well traveled brother. Congratulations on getting custody of Baby Girl Boyd. I started young. My baby girl hits 26 in may and my first grand baby, he’ll (DJ aka David Jr) turn 1 March 13th. Like my Pawpaw CB told me back in the 80’s 😂 when I was a kid. Soak it up before they cover you up. As in 🪦. That’s why I’ve always been the unapologetic morning person. My eyes open and my feet hit the floor? As I’ve said for years and even have it tatted. Any day this side of the dirt.

2025-02-26 06:32:44 +0000 UTCOne thing you hadn;t finished was IT (movie about the kids and killer clown). Don't forget there is IT: Chapter 2!
HeadShot223
2025-02-26 06:24:59 +0000 UTCOne day I'll open one of these videos to you mentioning that you're reacting to RRR, an Indian movie. I think it's been on the list for well over a year and I feel like it's time. Everything about it is gonna blow you away.
Billy
2025-02-26 01:20:47 +0000 UTCWell... one day hopefully... it may be one of those things where MRLBOYD just needs to make, like, an "executive decision" to just decide to do it. In the meantime, I'll keep voting for it when it shows up and encourage everyone else to do likewise.
Carl Lyngholm
2025-02-26 00:51:35 +0000 UTCBrother I've been pushing for the wire for two straight years and it consistently loses to drivel voted for by phantom patrons who you'll never see again. I swear 3/4s of the patrons who voted for SOA just joined that one month and then left. They never comment or participate or bothered even watching the SOA reactions
Slimsycentaur37
2025-02-25 21:52:49 +0000 UTCI fully agree

Mikel Swart
2025-02-25 17:31:49 +0000 UTCVikings gets better from season to season. That doesn't make much sense. Well, at the end of the day it's a matter of taste. I think he will like it.
Joel
2025-02-25 16:03:58 +0000 UTCThe fight scenes in Vikings are very good. 9.5/10
Joel
2025-02-25 16:00:25 +0000 UTCHe should know his pollsters are not great with their picks. Those of us who warned him about SOA should be given 2 votes to the 1 for the SOA fans. lol.
TigerMyth
2025-02-25 15:38:32 +0000 UTCCan't wait for you to stop watching Vikings 2 seasons in and switch shows because it's basically SOA 2.0!

2025-02-25 09:44:12 +0000 UTCOk, so question to both, how is the gore/fighting compared to GOT? : ]
Madmanmarz1981
2025-02-25 09:11:57 +0000 UTCI can dig it man. I waited a long time for Sopranos. BUT , In the words of Commander Peter Quincey Taggart , "Never give up , Never surrender!" : ]
Madmanmarz1981
2025-02-25 09:09:14 +0000 UTCHere I am just patiently waiting for The Wire... I'm sure it will get voted in for the next poll... yep... no doubt whatsoever.... unless of course one of the greatest shows in the history of television has to run against something like Grey's Anatomy or some shit, which it will obviously lose to given the history of prior results. If that sounds a little bitchy, it's 3AM and I can't sleep. (I obviously don't think this channel would do Grey's Anatomy, but I couldn't think of a better example, atm...) I will say, I'm really enjoying your Band of Brothers reactions so far, so looking forward to those.
Carl Lyngholm
2025-02-25 08:14:06 +0000 UTCYeah I like at least the first 4 seasons more than GOT. Then it fell off like most series I guess.
TAN
2025-02-25 07:15:48 +0000 UTCThanks for the heads up Sir!! Your so much better than most reactors I have followed in keeping us informed on line up's, and when there are problems. Thanks again. Peace (And you mentioned Aliens!!!YESSS! cant wait!) I would also like to recommend for a Weekend Movie - Baby Driver - 2017 - Bad-Ass action/thriller about a getaway driver for a bank robbery group. Action packed and real practical car stunts. And second - The Descent - 2005 - Horror/thriller - A group of caving/outdoor sports enthusiasts go to a cave and are trapped. I know you would enjoy the film ,(As would others here. It's a popular film.) but as it is so low lit , but looks great , I would enjoy your observations. And the director (Neil Marshall) did 2 of the best GOT episode's. : ]

2025-02-25 06:17:39 +0000 UTCI personally like it even more then GoT. No bad ending and 3 times more testosterone😅👍🏻
