2025-01-27 23:38:26 +0000 UTCChinatown got my vote too. Risky Business is a classic and I can’t really fault people for voting for it. I’m guessing there’s a fair number of people on this channel who have never seen Chinatown, maybe even heard of it. It too is a classic and I’m positive Cassie would really enjoy it. It is, in a word, intriguing.

2025-01-21 23:16:58 +0000 UTC"Wind River" is such a solid movie, with amazing performances. It also has an important message.
Doug Fisher
2025-01-14 22:43:36 +0000 UTCPolls, really aren't the best way to pick movies. Most people have a limited film vocabulary and many pick films to make reactors squirm rather than provide a good viewing experience.

2025-01-13 04:57:51 +0000 UTCThat's just how it goes. Polls favor popularity more than what's good. Patton is a great film, but it is terrible at how few votes that it got. However, look at how many votes Lawrence of Arabia got in the Top 50 poll. Something seems amiss.
Mark Vaderr
2025-01-13 02:52:33 +0000 UTCI love Lawrence of Arabia but it is a pretty long movie and I am not sure about her reaction. If she likes it just moderately, she might find it hard to go through it. I guess we'll see. :-)
René Ferland
2025-01-13 01:53:35 +0000 UTC"surprised that the two AFI movies didn’t get more love" Most people don't care about the "top 100" and many of the movies are pretentious garbage that only film students and insomniacs like (oh, and the KKK, they loved the one).
Mike Lemon
2025-01-13 00:49:31 +0000 UTCI am surprised that Patton didn’t get more votes. Also a little surprised that the two AFI movies didn’t get more love. I went in thinking those two AFI movies and Risky Business might be in the top 3, and that Payback and Willow would be the bottom 2. How wrong I was about Willow.

2025-01-12 21:57:09 +0000 UTCYes! Although American Graffiti isnt what I had in mind.
V M
2025-01-12 20:11:29 +0000 UTCI agree in general but some children's classics are great films even though they're made for children others are just kid flix
Nolofinwe
2025-01-12 19:40:00 +0000 UTCYeah intended for children but still lots of fun
Nolofinwe
2025-01-12 19:36:05 +0000 UTCCassie has reacted to many AFI Top 100 movies. Kudos. Looks like she will be reacting to one in Lawrence of Arabia. I wish the channel would do AFI Top 100 polls and thus maybe could get to movies like American Graffiti and Chinatown.
Clay F
2025-01-12 19:17:59 +0000 UTCI never thought that Willow was intended for children. I always just thought it was bad.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-12 19:07:12 +0000 UTCNot much love for "Payback", which surprised me. I have a strong feeling we will see Mad Mad 1, 2, 3 on the channel soon anyway. As for the other low vote getters, maybe they can fare better on other polls. When these polls mix genres, some entertaining films miss out.
Joe
2025-01-12 18:41:16 +0000 UTCWell, at least Willow didn’t win, the second worst film in the poll did.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-12 11:36:00 +0000 UTCThe unwise think movies about those of a certain age are only for a certain age. Dumb comedy's can be as entertaining as films with a message. ALL are fantasy regarding the kind of lives we wish we could experience or re-experience again.

2025-01-12 07:06:20 +0000 UTCOh, I'm sorry, I had no idea that's what you were trying to say! And apologies for replying so late! To answer your question, I haven't seen Willow recently, but I've watched the movie enough times throughout my life to know that it does hold up! For a movie that's as old as I am, I think it's aged well! 😁✌
Wesley White
2025-01-12 06:21:06 +0000 UTCRisky B - 293, Willow - 287
Joe
2025-01-12 00:03:07 +0000 UTCRisky Business is rated R for strong language and sensuality. Willow is intended for younger audiences. Patton , American Graffiti, and Chinatown are all good.
Clay F
2025-01-11 23:54:25 +0000 UTCHere’s another Category All good except “Risky business” Silly teenage stuff. 3 Classics. Patton , American graffiti, and Chinatown each one from a different genre. Now the others will happen to be good as well, but they’re not classics important films
Nolofinwe
2025-01-11 23:13:45 +0000 UTC--Current Votes-- Risky Busines - 290 Willow - 285 Wind River - 172 Mad Max - 165 American Graffiti - 142 Payback - 140 Chinatown - 122 Patton - 121 I saw Wind River in the theater and liked it. I am surprised that Patton is in last place. Of the three early Mad Max movies, Mad Max 2 (Road Warrior) is my favorite. The two AFI Top 100 movies didn't fair too well. I have nostalgia for American Graffiti. Interesting that Payback beat Chinatown. If Risky Business (which I voted for) wins, I hope she knows going in that the genre is not pure comedy, but is Comedy/Crime.
Clay F
2025-01-11 18:36:43 +0000 UTCOr just the top 1. No need to get bogged down.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-11 14:02:36 +0000 UTCThe votes are so close hopefully she just watches the top 2
Neighbourhood Watch Alliance
2025-01-11 10:14:27 +0000 UTCAnd those are the two top vote getters, lol. I was really hoping American Graffiti would get the top spot. Patton or Wind River would have been great as well.

Clarence Newman
2025-01-10 14:13:34 +0000 UTCI hope anything but Willow wins, even Risky Business.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-10 14:04:57 +0000 UTCClarence….. I hate to destroy your child-like faith…….Viggo played Aragorn in the movie, he wasn’t the REAL Aragorn. Sorry man, I know it must hurt to find out this way.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-10 14:01:01 +0000 UTCPatton is a fantastic movie, but it's totally understandable that it's not in everyone's wheelhouse... I don't know about "distressing"... I hope Willow (or Patton) wins lol
Ben Schwartz
2025-01-10 12:27:43 +0000 UTC"He’s no Aragorn, but who is?" Viggo Mortensen, Richard. Try to keep up.
Clarence Newman
2025-01-10 08:33:30 +0000 UTCThat is true lol, I just love Madmardigan's confidence in saying he's the greatest swordsman ever, while also being kind of a clown, but coming in clutch.
Joe D. MacGuffinstuff
2025-01-10 06:46:23 +0000 UTCIt is distressing at how few votes are going to Patton. Wind River is a very good movie, although it would be a tough one for Cassie. American Graffiti isn't doing so well either. Looks like we're stuck with the Tom Cruise vehicle.
Mark Vaderr
2025-01-10 03:33:38 +0000 UTCHe’s no Aragorn, but who is?
Richard Maurer
2025-01-10 03:19:28 +0000 UTCSnow White totally copied it too.
Chris Thom
2025-01-09 21:02:34 +0000 UTCThat morphing effect was the big stand out at the time. But overall the setting and vibe of it all is still pretty nice. Does steal a lot from other stories, though.
Chris Thom
2025-01-09 21:01:18 +0000 UTCCrickey, who can understand them Aussies (haha), but seriously, dialogue in films is so garbled now...and my hearing is okay.
Joe
2025-01-09 19:57:30 +0000 UTCSome of my favorite films and shows growing up have very outdated effects, but I still like the stories and characters. For instance, I still love me some classic Doctor Who, and 50's & 60s's sci-fi.
Joe
2025-01-09 19:48:06 +0000 UTCMadmardigan from Willow is one of my favorite movie characters of all time. Mayhaps a better swordsman than even Iñigo Montoya, or the Man In Black/Dread Pirate Roberts/Wesley, or Zorro himself?
Joe D. MacGuffinstuff
2025-01-09 17:25:58 +0000 UTCI believe she mentioned watching Hell or High Water in the past
Cole Jennett
2025-01-09 16:32:49 +0000 UTCYou’re trolling right? If not you probably think Harry Potter influenced LotR too.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-09 16:28:58 +0000 UTCGrandma doesn’t always know best.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-09 16:27:33 +0000 UTCRisky Business winning isn’t a surprise. But Willow in a tie for first? People are looking through coke bottle nostalgia googles on that one. It’s a third rate LotR wannabe.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-09 16:25:27 +0000 UTCI rate Wind river, very highly. I just couldn’t vote for it, for Cassie to watch, with that one brutal scene in it! But yeah, great movie.
Mark White
2025-01-09 16:11:23 +0000 UTCRichard, if you had asked me before this poll went up, which movie would win, I would of said Mad Max by quite a distance! Because it’s just one of those popular movies, like the lethal weapons or die hards. So I’m quite surprised it has similar numbers to the other movies on the list. But saying that, there quite a few good movies to choose from on this one.
Mark White
2025-01-09 16:08:48 +0000 UTCYeah. Something happened in November where I realized 75 million people made such an incredibly bad choice that it boggles the mind. They were conned and didn’t even realize it. I wish I could remember what it was that happened but for the life of me can’t recall. What happened in November 2024 where 75 million people did something really, really dumb? Hmm. Oh well. Maybe it’ll come back to me.
Stan the Man
2025-01-09 16:07:21 +0000 UTCAs much as I loved Willow growing up, revisiting it not that long ago showed me that it did not age well - the effects in particular.
Story Archer
2025-01-09 14:48:22 +0000 UTCNo it isn’t, not by a long shot. And I’m not a fan of the Hobbit Trilogy.

Clay F
2025-01-09 10:13:34 +0000 UTC+1 for Sicario
Clay F
2025-01-09 10:12:08 +0000 UTCI consider Chinatown to be the best movie on the list, but probably not a Cassie type of movie. There are certainly a lot of good choices on the list. I think American Graffiti would be fun, plus she would get to see early Harrison Ford, Ron Howard, Richard Dreyfus, etc.
Kevin Albertina
2025-01-09 09:29:15 +0000 UTCThere were books !?
Neighbourhood Watch Alliance
2025-01-09 08:34:02 +0000 UTC"American Graffiti", "Willow", "Payback", and "Patton" all great choices! But my vote is for "Willow", that is such a childhood favorite of mine growing up as a kid, I know for a fact you will love it Cassie, you should definitely get Carly to watch it with you! No spoilers, it's two main leads: Val Kilmer and Warwick Davis have such great chemistry as a duo! This movie was also Warwick Davis' first leading role in a film, you would probably know him better from being in the "Harry Potter" franchise, he played multiple roles throughout all 8 films, however he was also the Ewok Wicket from STAR WARS Ep. 6 Return of the Jedi, the one who finds Princess Leia and brings her back to the Ewok camp! I think you were getting "American Graffiti" and "American Psycho" mixed around, the Graffiti one is with Harrison Ford and the Psycho one is with Christian Bale lol! "Payback" is such an underrated Mel Gibson movie, I think you'll like that one if you ever get around to it! And "Patton" fantastic movie, it's opening scene is actually my favorite part lol! Great choices 😁😉👍👌✌
Wesley White
2025-01-09 07:46:12 +0000 UTCWind River and then follow up with Sicario and Hell or High Water

Matthew Folz
2025-01-09 05:26:34 +0000 UTCI don’t know what that is. I don’t know how hard or complicated it is to make a Poll Post. All I’m saying is, after 24 hours remove the poll and post the poll again with the bottom 2 films removed. Rinse and Repeat, until you’ve cut the original poll lineup in half, or at most after 3 days. If what you’re talking about is the same thing only, built into a poll format, that doesn’t require any extra attention… as in a one and done, and eliminates the bottom films on its own, then sure… which ever is easier. I figured it would be easy to just repost a poll again… but like I said, I don’t know how hard or how long it takes to post a poll.
Larry Darrell
2025-01-09 04:14:26 +0000 UTCIs this a call for ranked choice voting? 😁
Stranger2Reality
2025-01-09 04:02:10 +0000 UTCSomeday she will run out of Tom Cruise movies. I just not sure if the last one that she watches is "Magnolia" or "Losing it".
TheSingulatarian
2025-01-09 03:46:14 +0000 UTCWillow is the worst film on the list. Lucas was an admirer of LotR , he said it was part of the inspiration for Star Wars. But you wouldn’t know he was an admirer considering how bad this low level rip-off is.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-09 03:30:31 +0000 UTCMad Max preferably with the original Austraiian dialog - yes a dubbed version exists, they were afraid Americans wouldn’t be able to understand the Australian accent.
Richard Maurer
2025-01-09 03:25:18 +0000 UTCChinatown vs American Graffiti is a tough choice for me. I had to go with Chinatown.
abraham wilson
2025-01-09 03:24:53 +0000 UTCIt’s a bad attempt to make LotR without having access to (paying for) the material

Paul Stelter
2025-01-09 02:52:55 +0000 UTCI voted for Chinatown, but looks like we're in for Risky Business.
V M
2025-01-09 02:50:03 +0000 UTCtotally agree. I revisited the movie when the series was coming out, thinking I'd get in to it. Hard to watch. Not a good movie.
Walter
2025-01-09 02:47:28 +0000 UTCI still say it would be interesting to see the poll resubmitted after 24 hours, with the bottom 2 films removed. Then after the next 24 hours, resubmit the poll again with the bottom 2 films removed. Let’s see which films the 9% of votes for Chinatown and the 9% of votes for Patton go to when you can’t vote for those movies. It’d be more exciting than watching Risky Business stay in the lead for 3 days with only Willow as its competition. A poll with 8 films that lasts for three days, and after 4 hours, we already know that it’s going to be either of the two films. Also, if Risky Business or Willow wins… then Cassie would be watching a film that only 20% or less of her patronage prefers to watch. (-: I love Risky Business by the way. I’m just trying to add a little spice to these polls. I mean seriously, after 4 hours, you know what the Top 2 is going to be. What if half the poll was removed… perhaps a film in 4th place could take the lead. Risky Business and Willow are 2 completely different films. With 4 of the films removed from the poll, we may get a better idea of which of the 2 films are more preferred. Maybe one will get a bigger lead, and then we’ll have a film that MOST people want to see. I think it sounds like fun ;-)
Larry Darrell
2025-01-09 02:29:04 +0000 UTCI think Chinatown is just as good or even better than Patton, and definitely has a more entertaining story. Nominated for 11 Oscars, it just didn't have the wins that Patton had.
Mike LL
2025-01-09 01:23:36 +0000 UTCI changed my vote to Risky Business because neither Patton or Chinatown have a chance to win. Cassie is going to love baby Tom!

2025-01-09 00:33:32 +0000 UTCYou've seen the recent Mad Max movies, you NEED to see the originals, where the story/character really came from. Plus, it's an awesome movie filmed in my home state.
Sarah Frost

John
2025-01-09 00:12:06 +0000 UTCAlso has music by James Horner who did The Wrath of Khan and The Search for Spock: great soundtrack and (probably) the most New Zealand scenery on film until LoTR came along.
Chris Clarke
2025-01-09 00:07:30 +0000 UTCI agree about the Director’s Cut. The theatrical version is better. Not to mention, the ending of the Director’s Cut flips the novel (“The Hunter”) on its head - and not to positive effect. The series of books featuring Parker (Porter in the movie) are the best hard crime/heist books I’ve ever read.
Just Plain Bob
2025-01-09 00:00:42 +0000 UTCYou need to watch Willow regardless….that movie is so good and you liked lord of the rings so much, val kilmer is awesome in it
Andrew Heller
2025-01-08 23:52:58 +0000 UTCI voted Risky Business. Also like American Graffiti, Chinatown, Patton, and Wind River. I liked Mad Max II (Road Warrior) back in the day.
Clay F
2025-01-08 23:52:29 +0000 UTCThe Color of Money is one of my Top 10 favorite films and I've never seen The Hustler. I don't think it's really necessary. I would even argue that not seeing it adds some interesting mystery to the later film.
Robert Baldino
2025-01-08 23:36:31 +0000 UTCI think I like the theatrical more, but still appreciate plenty from the directors “Straight Up” cut (or whatever it was called).

David Collins
2025-01-08 23:25:47 +0000 UTCToo much recency bias? It's a great movie that Cassie would probably really enjoy. Who cares if it's somewhat newer.
Jeff I.
2025-01-08 23:19:58 +0000 UTCThis might be the best of the three polls. Looks like Risky Business and Mad Max are taking the early lead and I'd be delighted with either of them.
Clarence Newman

2025-01-08 22:45:44 +0000 UTCI can still remember watching his very first late night chat show on Channel 4. It was much more x-rated back then! There is an official YouTube of it! https://www.youtube.com/@SoGrahamNorton
JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS
2025-01-08 22:43:21 +0000 UTCthis is an exceptionally great series of films in this poll. I'm not uber keen on WILLOW but everything else I'm totally enthusiastic about. I voted AMERICAN GRAFFITI in the end.

Starpartyguy
2025-01-08 22:34:39 +0000 UTCIt's pretty sad that the best movie here (by far) is tied for last.. but Risky Business is a fun one that catapulted this channel's favorite movie star. So at least there is one positive, if it does indeed win.

2025-01-08 22:33:24 +0000 UTCIt's just a reminder of how many great movies we'll get to enjoy with Cassie (and maybe Carly).

Rick Rodriguez
2025-01-08 22:32:29 +0000 UTCOK now if I were going to watch any of these movies, most of which I've seen, some multiple times, it would be Patton, and then Chinatown. But Cassie loves Tom Cruise so I went with Risky Business. It wasn't his first movie but it was the one that made him a star (and then Top Gun made him a huge star).

2025-01-08 22:32:00 +0000 UTCThis poll is also top to bottom 👍
Rick Rodriguez
2025-01-08 22:31:58 +0000 UTCOnce again I am reminded how weird and old I am. I'm amazed that Chinatown isn't doing better - I would think that would be a favorite among the bros that seem to dominate these polls. It's a classic! Jack Nicholson in the 70s! Come on! And American Graffiti is one of those this-is-where-it-all started films that Cassie loves, where we witness the beginnings of careers and tropes that defined the next thirty years of cinema. Patton is definitely worth seeing for Scott's performance and its historical significance, and it's very entertaining if not quite as profound as it thinks it is. I know Willow means a lot to a very particular generation/demographic but remember they're the same people who love Howard the Duck and we saw what Cassie thought of that....

2025-01-08 22:31:21 +0000 UTCChinatown is simply one of the finest achievements in American cinema and should be ranked much higher in the recommendations!

Rick Rodriguez
2025-01-08 22:31:07 +0000 UTCI'm gonna go for RIsky Business. I never usually vote for a movie i havent seen, but i've been aiming to watch this for a while and it will give me the perfect excuse. I've watced about 4 of the others and none of them really stand out.
rakesh
2025-01-08 22:30:45 +0000 UTCWith Cassie revisiting superman again and possibly crocodile Dundee too, I voted mad max to make it a hat trick.
Nim
2025-01-08 22:29:06 +0000 UTCIt really should be Risky Business. You love Tom Cruise. Time of your life kid.
Tomt39
2025-01-08 22:25:46 +0000 UTCCassie, I know you loved "Band of Brothers." As such, I think you need to be introduced to George S Patton, aka "Ole Blood and Guts." commander of the 3rd Army and was the leader of every soldier that was mentioned in the series.
Monte Durbin
2025-01-08 22:24:48 +0000 UTCAmerican Graffiti is a hands down winner. Only issue is making it OK for You Tube.

2025-01-08 22:24:41 +0000 UTCWind River is incredible
Erik Locquiao
2025-01-08 22:23:50 +0000 UTCWillow is a fun adventure movie that I think both ladies would enjoy.
clutchkman
2025-01-08 22:23:41 +0000 UTCYeah, again, tough choices here, but I went with "Risky Business", not Tom's first role, but I believe it to be the that he broke out with. I hope she also gets to see "The Color of Money", my personal favorite, as he got to work with Legends in that one.
Chris Davis
2025-01-08 22:23:07 +0000 UTCCassie - Please don't watch American Graffiti unless you bring yo sister! She would love it.
Alexander McGinnis

AC5555
2025-01-08 22:19:51 +0000 UTCPayback is Mel Gibson at his finest. Do not watch the director's cut. I believe the studio removed the director at the time and had Gibson finish the film. I've seen both and believe that Gibson's version is far superior.
Lucien
2025-01-08 22:18:59 +0000 UTCAmerican Graffiti is an American Classic and Patton has one of the greatest performances by any lead actor ever. Hopefully both are viewed at some point.

Monte Durbin
2025-01-08 22:17:13 +0000 UTCI had to go with Mad Max. I've heard about wind river but haven't seen it so would be nice way to get me to see it. I'm not a fan of Risky Business. Not saying it's bad simply a movie I don't know if I can watch again.
David Kent
2025-01-08 22:17:07 +0000 UTCWind river is a excellent movie but do you really want to put Cassie through that one scene?! Harrowing and traumatic is what it will be for her! As much as I admire this movie I just couldn’t bring myself to vote for it.
Mark White
2025-01-08 22:17:00 +0000 UTCGen. George S. Patton jr.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Celeste McAllister
2025-01-08 22:16:42 +0000 UTCIt won't win, but I'm praying she sees Wind River someday. It's a really good crime thriller with some heart. Great acting and writing!
Jeff I.
2025-01-08 22:16:30 +0000 UTCChinatown is definitely one of Nicholsons best performances!
Monte Durbin
2025-01-08 22:16:26 +0000 UTCI can't vote for Wind River. It's alright but it's enjoying too much recency bias here. Tough choices all around, but I went with Willow because I think Cassie (and Carly) will love it and it's the movie that basically gave us the amazing Val Kilmer.
David Collins
2025-01-08 22:15:59 +0000 UTCI couldn't disagree more about that. His performance of one of this countries greatest leaders was outstanding! It followed everything of who the man was during WWII perfectly! Cassie, if not this round, Patton is an absolute must in the future!
Monte Durbin
2025-01-08 22:15:19 +0000 UTCThis is a group where I feel the quality is not quite as good. There are a few films here I wouldn't mind winning and others that I hope don't. For right now, I'm throwing my vote toward CHINATOWN, but if it doesn't pull ahead, I'll probably switch my vote too the least bad option that has a chance of winning.

Stephen Last
2025-01-08 22:14:25 +0000 UTCPatton is head and shoulders above every movie on the poll. Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Screenplay and Best Director. Naturally it will finish at the bottom.
Stephen Malloy
2025-01-08 22:13:27 +0000 UTCI went American Graffiti but I'll probably change my mind. This poll is harder than the last as Patton and Chinatown are actually much better films, but I'm not sure Cassie would appreciate either more than my instinctive first choice.
Brett Richey
2025-01-08 22:13:13 +0000 UTCAmerican Graffiti’s success financed the development of the technology for Star Wars. For this alone it worth watching.
Starpartyguy
2025-01-08 22:13:03 +0000 UTCRisky Business is such a good movie - haven't seen it in a long time, so I'm hoping it wins.
Johnny
2025-01-08 22:12:50 +0000 UTCLove Patton! What I think you will like about it is that it isn't really a war movie. It's a psychological and historical biography of one of our most interesting and important military leaders.
Rick Savage
2025-01-08 22:12:42 +0000 UTCRandom Fact: When Tom Cruise first went on The Graham Norton Show, Graham Norton told him that when Norton first visited the U.S. in 1983, he attended an audience test screening for Risky Business (1983), Cruise's first starring film. Norton jokingly told Tom Cruise "I could've derailed your career!"
JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS

Chris Thom
2025-01-08 22:12:19 +0000 UTCI have to say that Patton is one of the most overrated movies I've ever seen in my life. It's not like Lawrence of Arabia for example where you watch it It's clear that you're watching something special and something four stars, etc. Other than George C. Scott's performance, I don't think there's anything special about the movie at all.
Caomhan84
2025-01-08 22:11:30 +0000 UTCDo you prefer the theatrical cut or the second edit the original director did? I prefer the theatrical cut myself
Stranger2Reality
2025-01-08 22:11:25 +0000 UTCI voted for RICKY BUSINESS because I know Cassie likes a Tom Cruise movie. But I’m not fussed if it doesn’t win. Unlike the first poll which has many I would like to win, none of these movies appeal to me.
Luke Godfrey
2025-01-08 22:11:13 +0000 UTCLet's get wind river! Risky business will surely win another poll

Patrick Crippen
2025-01-08 22:08:23 +0000 UTCI like everything on this list but we need to get Cassie back into the Mad Max universe. Its been 3 years since Fury Road was watched.
David Freese
2025-01-08 22:08:16 +0000 UTCIt's gonna have to be "Mad Max" for me. Admittedly it may be hard for Cassie to watch at points, but it's still worth watching, as are "Road Warrior" and "Beyond Thunderdome".
Jake McNulty
2025-01-08 22:08:15 +0000 UTCgoing with Patton. Great performance by George C Scott. Plus it ties in with her watching Band of Brothers and the recent 80th anniversary of "the Battle of the Bulge".
