Jimmy Stewart
2025-02-04 18:57:17 +0000 UTCYes, she has seen it. You can check the status (seen or unseen) of a movie at popcornrequests.com. You can also check her Letterboxd.

2025-02-04 02:01:18 +0000 UTCHas Cassie seen Edge of Tomorrow with Cruise and Emily Blunt...anyone

2025-02-03 22:48:36 +0000 UTCWas the RCA disc and player expensive when you first got it?
Chris Thom
2025-02-03 01:30:59 +0000 UTCBeen a while for me too. Almost never see it on cable anymore. Or even the HBO channel.
Chris Thom
2025-02-03 01:30:05 +0000 UTCI’ve not seen this since it was first on tv back in the mid eighties.
Ria Grix
2025-02-03 01:10:09 +0000 UTCYes, I love that Lion King song! "Hakuna, matata, ooh I wanna take ya..." :-P
Happy Hanukkah
2025-02-02 20:40:04 +0000 UTCSome of my first memories of life are that Kokomo song. That must've been pretty big for a while.
Chris Thom
2025-02-02 05:31:59 +0000 UTCThe Color of Money was a Scorsese wasn't it? Pretty sure it was. Or one of his movies was definitely about pool...But apparently Siskel and Ebert really hammered Scorsese over that movie in a big way to the point it made him quit drugs and make a lot of changes in his life. Not sure exactly what the problem was with it.
Chris Thom
2025-02-02 05:29:53 +0000 UTCYeah true. I didn't discover that one until about 5 years ago. Kind of the ultimate Stephen King story. Drew was adorable as always. Apparently the new girl that played her won a Razzie for her performance and there was a ton of backlash for them doing that to a child. Drew stuck up for her as well.
Chris Thom
2025-02-02 05:25:51 +0000 UTCCapacitance Electronic Disc aka CED, aka "Selectavision". Not many people had them! But the people who did have them, tended to have large movie collections. The vinyl discs were less expensive than tapes or laserdiscs. They're collector's items today, for sure!

2025-01-31 21:31:28 +0000 UTCMy LD player still worked until around 2018. If any technology would become obsolete quickly, you could always count on me to buy it, LOL.
Joe
2025-01-31 21:30:21 +0000 UTCThank you Cassie for providing us with this amazing channel!! Making watching these movies such a more enjoyable experience!!
Jason Henderson
2025-01-31 03:21:00 +0000 UTCI agree with everything you say. I don't know the answer to your question. The Born on the Fourth of July is an important movie but is somewhat pedestrian (as you say) and especially sad (for me in my old age). Yet, worthwhile to watch at least once. Tom Cruise acting is good. Plus, a signficant message. It's been years since I've seen it. Collateral is probably my favorite on my suggested list.
Clay F
2025-01-31 00:37:07 +0000 UTCI recently rewatched Born on the Fourth of July, and while Tom Cruise is great in it, the movie is merely OK, trending towards good. I was kind of expecting it to be more impactful I guess. Some of Oliver Stone's films from that era which were impactful back then, come across as a little pedestrian nowadays. I dunno. It's still worth seeing though, especially if someone is a Tom Cruise fan, as that's among his greatest performances. Collateral, Eyes Wide Shut and The Color of Money are amazing films though, and Cruise is great in all of them (although Paul Newman overshadows him in The Color of Money, but that's not a knock as Newman is incredible in that movie). But as V M said, Cassie definitely needs to watch The Hustler before The Color of Money, as The Color of Money is the sequel to The Hustler, even though you can still appreciate The Color of Money without ever seeing The Hustler. Side question: is The Color of Money the very first lega-sequel movie ever made?
Stranger2Reality
2025-01-31 00:23:53 +0000 UTCShe was a totally benevolent, kind character in Backdraft though, so she's not always menacing.
Stranger2Reality
2025-01-31 00:16:01 +0000 UTCI also loved the Tangerine Dream score in the 80s Firestarter.
Stranger2Reality
2025-01-31 00:14:48 +0000 UTCShe has to watch "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle".

TheSingulatarian
2025-01-30 22:28:13 +0000 UTCCollateral is great. I like the intensity. I like the soundtrack. As an aside, in particular, like the song "Shadow on the Sun" by Audioslave -- integrated well into the movie and one of my favorite Audioslave songs. Mann is apparently a fan of Audioslave. As you may know, Audioslave is Rage Against the Machine w/Chris Cornell as the lead singer. Mann incorporated 2 Audioslave songs in MIami Vice (2006). R.I.P. Chris Cornell.
Clay F
2025-01-30 21:43:49 +0000 UTCI though COLLATERAL was one of Tom Cruise's best performances of his later career. He was chilling in this role and going hard against type. Jamie Foxx was brilliant, as usual. And Mark Ruffalo killed it as the detective. As an aside, I also thought the hair should've got billing as a co-star. Genius move by Michael Mann to kind of "de-movie star" his lead actor without resorting to scars or ugliness.

2025-01-30 21:38:41 +0000 UTCThat would be lovely. One Cosmopolitan, please.
Happy Hanukkah
2025-01-30 20:22:46 +0000 UTCHer eyes are a bit scary. But probably mostly because of Cradle.
Chris Thom
2025-01-30 18:37:26 +0000 UTCBack in high school in the eighties, the book was required reading. We were lucky our English teacher was a fan and showed us the movie, as he didn’t have too, it really cemented just what a good little story it is. Great cast for the movie too.
Mark White
2025-01-30 18:21:40 +0000 UTCUse to have this movie and many more films on RCA Disc.Was like a vlyn Record but in a plastic sleeve.Played on Player that loaded and removed the sleeve. My Brother still has a couple with tons of movies from the 80s. Makes me think of other 80s movie like Fast time at Ridgemount High and Porkies but definitely adult not PG.But were Classics 80 s films you watched as a teenager.
Tim C
2025-01-30 18:12:57 +0000 UTCI really love that movie - Tom Cruise nails it and drinks it... Great cast as well... I always wanted to go way down to Kokomo....
Jens Kristensen
2025-01-30 15:31:59 +0000 UTC"A pretty face can hide an evil mind"...Secret Agent Man.
Joe
2025-01-30 15:10:39 +0000 UTCJust watched this. My goodness, Tom Cruise looks small in this movie. Small, clean cut, harmless. It's amazing how he grew into the gung ho movie star he became. Rebecca de Mornay, on the other hand. I'm sure she's very nice in real life, but there's something very "Hand That Rocks The Cradle" about every character she plays - like she would be the best time you ever had in your life, until that one day you woke up with the garden shears around your junk. ("Do I have your attention, sweetheart?")
Clarence Newman
2025-01-30 12:02:26 +0000 UTCI do wonder what Cassie will think of Tom Cruise screaming out his rather vulgar catch phrase as Frank "TJ" Mackie in Magnolia.
TheSingulatarian
2025-01-30 10:00:24 +0000 UTCI read The Outsiders book (by S.E. Hinton) as a kid and remember liking it. I watched the movie 40 yeas ago in the 80's but don't really remember it.
Clay F
2025-01-30 09:39:32 +0000 UTCAnother great reaction Cassie, yet again elevating a ok movie and making it better to watch. You really should give the “ The outsiders” a go next. Patrick Swayze and Tom cruise! Among many others.
Mark White
2025-01-30 08:21:48 +0000 UTCI know when I first saw this I was expecting way more classic rock. But the synths really take over for most of it.
Chris Thom
2025-01-30 05:02:06 +0000 UTCV M good point
Clay F
2025-01-30 04:55:07 +0000 UTCResponse #2: Synths?! Ha! Just give me old time rock and roll! :-)
Happy Hanukkah
2025-01-30 04:50:23 +0000 UTCTangerine Dream were electronica pioneers and released over 100 albums, and yet this might be what they're best known for. :-) (And let's not forget long-time member Christopher Franke's work on Babylon 5.)
Happy Hanukkah
2025-01-30 04:47:02 +0000 UTCThe Color of Money, after The Hustler.
V M
2025-01-30 04:11:17 +0000 UTCCool old building. Classic Chicago.
Chris Thom
2025-01-30 03:42:29 +0000 UTCCurious how people feel about Legend these days. Don't remember it having a ton of substance, but the cinematography/sound is some of the most beautiful I've ever seen. Might be cool to see Ridley Scott return to that genre before he passes. (Holy crap just read he's 87.)
Chris Thom
2025-01-30 02:56:12 +0000 UTCThere is one sequence that she may not really enjoy because of her sister's condition. I think that it should be pointed out to her that the film is not making fun of developmentally challenged people. The film got some bad press at the time of its release for those scenes. Undeservedly, I might add. Rather that the butt of the joke is Hollywood exploiting these people's condition for Oscar bait and that all of the characters in the film are terrible insensitive Hollywood types, and they are saying these things because they are awful people. Tropic Thunder is one of the funniest movies of the last twenty-five years and if she goes into it with the right attitude she would enjoy it.
TheSingulatarian
2025-01-30 02:41:52 +0000 UTCThe thing that sticks out to me most about this movie might be the Tangerine Dream synths. Besides baby Tom Cruise and Rebecca.
Chris Thom
2025-01-30 02:27:54 +0000 UTCHope Magnolia comes next. And she actually got suggested that by a major director at a big-budget movie premiere with Tom Cruise. Would think that would be enough.
Chris Thom
2025-01-30 02:26:02 +0000 UTCBe interesting to see if Cassie would allow herself to laugh and enjoy Tropic Thunder and not worry about PC.
Joe
2025-01-30 02:21:19 +0000 UTCMy top Cruise movies that Cassie has not seen: 1. "Collateral" (2004) (neo-noir action thriller). Nominated 2 Oscars including Best Supporting Actor (Jamie Foxx). Tom Cruise is awesome. Also stars Jada Pinkett Smith, Mark Ruffalo, Javier Bardem. 2. "Magnolia" (1999). Nominated for 3 Oscars including Tom Cruise for Best Actor. Also stars Julianne Moore, Philip Seymour Hoffman, John C. Reilly. 3. "Born on the Fourth of July" (1989). Nominated for 8 Oscars including Best Picture and Tom Cruise for Best Actor. Oliver Stone won Oscar for Best Director. Also stars Willem Dafoe, Tom Berenger, and Kyra Sedgwick (an awesome actress who has been married to Kevin Bacon since 1988). 4. "The Color of Money" (1986) [Martin Scorsese]. Paul Newman won Best Actor Oscar. In Tom Cruise 1986 style, Tom Cruise did great with his character. Also has Forest Whitaker. 5. "Eyes Wide Shut" (1999) [Stanley Kubrick -- his final film]. Tom Cruise. Nicole Kidman. They were married irl at the time of the movie.
Clay F
2025-01-30 02:12:01 +0000 UTCNow she needs to watch “All the Right Moves” with Carly
David Nesbit
2025-01-30 01:30:10 +0000 UTCWhat about Cocktail?
Anthony Padua
2025-01-30 01:29:26 +0000 UTCScrolled back through the comments on the full vid to see if anyone mentions it, and given the patronage I am shocked no one did. There is a Mission Impossible connection outside of Tom Cruise in this movie. The hotel Joel and Barry go to, to confront Lana when she is with Guido, is The Drake Hotel. The Drake Hotel you might remember from the first Mission Impossible. Jim and the bible from "The Drake Hotel" is how Ethan pieces everything together.
Michael G
2025-01-30 01:25:58 +0000 UTCCollateral is one his best, for sure.
Cory H
2025-01-30 01:14:15 +0000 UTCOh yeah, good point. Popcornreqests.com shows Tropic Thunder as “seen” but seems like I do remember that she may have recently clarified that she has not seen it.
Clay F
2025-01-30 01:12:34 +0000 UTCThe last time I mentioned Tropic Thunder she said she had not seen it. I know it is on her Letterboxd but there are a couple of items on there that there seems to be some question of if she has actually seen it or not.
TheSingulatarian
2025-01-30 00:39:18 +0000 UTCNice list. My top on your list is Collateral (awesome). I also like Magnolia and Born on the Fourth of July. Rock of Ages is a guilty pleasure for me b/c I was a young adult in the 80's listening to that music. My bottom on your list is Legend, which I walked out of the theater during that movie. She has reacted to Days of Thunder. She has seen Tropic Thunder.
Clay F
2025-01-30 00:35:28 +0000 UTCJoel's Father: Haven't I been telling you. Every once in awhile you just got to say, "what the heck" and take some chances. Joel: You are so right.
Clay F
2025-01-30 00:28:16 +0000 UTCThe Tom Cruise List - Born on the Fourth of July - Collateral - Rock of Ages - Tropic Thunder - Magnolia -Legend - Days of Thunder

2025-01-30 00:14:38 +0000 UTC"Go to school Joel...Go learn something".....
Celeste McAllister
2025-01-30 00:08:51 +0000 UTCSuch an underrated movie. This is probably the best teen movie of the 80s, or at least top 2 along with the Breakfast Club. It's easy to see why Tom Cruise became a star. "Looks like it's the university of Illinois! 😎"
Stranger2Reality
2025-01-30 00:07:11 +0000 UTCI'm excited to see this reaction, since we know Cassie likes Tom. 😂
