late upcoming
Added 2024-11-21 21:06:30 +0000 UTC
Hello my friends, sorry this post is mucho late. We ran away for a few days to Disneyland, it was wonderful and needed but also exhausting and of course I got sick:/ No need to fear, still 3 fun uploads this week including farmers, klingons and it’s looking like a funeral?
I posted a Cassie’s pick poll, if you haven’t yet, go vote! I know some of you are womp womp on the picks, but just following my heart 😉❤️I hope I can have something you’re more excited about next!
Speaking of movies (always) anyone heading to theatres for Gladiator 2, Wicked or Moana this next week? I think we’ll save Gladiator for the channel but i can’t wait to take the kids to Moana 2!
I’m going to share some videos from the house of the mouse on instagram if you want to go check them out! @popcorninbed
Next week will be Howard the Duck and a new poll winner!
Also next week on 11/26 at 7:30PM we will have our Extra Butter LIVE and then save the date for the evening of 12/13 we are going to have a YT Christmas LIVE with packages and festivities and such!
Speaking of Christmas, what movies should go on my christmas movies poll this year? Have I seen all the good ones now? I did see a clip of the 90's Miracle on 34th Street and I don't remember a thing if I have seen it, but it did make me really want to watch it.
Ok sorry again about my tardiness, love you all!
Ps: New podcast episdode this week was a fun movie quotes one!
Popcorn to Go:
Have the best week, remember to take those turkeys out of the freezer!

Darren Harrison

I appreciate that, Richard. I need all the help I can get promoting Officer and a Gentleman!
And yes, Mark, she should. It's obscene that, three years in, she still hasn't watched a John Wayne western.
Clarence Newman
2024-11-24 22:15:29 +0000 UTC
I don't think anyone's said that with any seriousness, Richard. I may rub your rhubarb about it now and then, but I certainly don't believe it. In fact, I'm one of the ones who think it would be better for Cassie to spread the gruesome, genetics fusing, chainsaw-amputating, hockey mask wearing, gimp movies throughout the year. Good for you and the other horror buffs, and, I believe, better for Cassie's sense of well-being.

For a different Christmas movie, watch The Long Kiss Goodnight with Helena Davis and Samuel L. Jackson, .a great action flick.

Yeah, you got it backwards; it's Ollie Dee and Stannie Dum, because, of course, Stan was the 'dumb' one (well, relatively speaking).

I support the following of your choices :- Bachelor Mother (1939) with Ginger Rogers & David Niven. Meet John Doe (1941) with Gary Cooper & Barbara Stanwyck. The Man Who Came to Dinner (1942) with Monty Woolley & Bette Davis. (The Bishop’s Wife (1947) with Cary Grant, David Niven & Loretta Young. Rec. as close to Xmas as possible for you both). it happened on fifth avenue (1947) Comedy/Romance. A Christmas Carol (1951) With Alistair Sim, Mervyn Johns & Michael Hordern.

Sorry to be preachy, Cassie, but please stop drinking all those sugary drinks! I think that may be why you seem to get sick so much. They're so bad for you! Best thing I ever did, health wise, was cut back significantly on that stuff.

Christmas movies:
* The Bishop’s Wife (1947) - popular movie for the holidays and I always watch it every Christmas.
* All Mine to Give (1957) - true-life story that’s truly unforgettable.
* For the PiB kids, I highly recommend getting The Complete Rankin/Bass Christmas Collection. Love it! My favorite out of the collection is “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” (1964)

Hi Cassie, what about either Meet me in St Louis or Christmas in Connecticut for a Christmas movie?

@JPB, I think the upside far outweighs any downside.
Joe
2024-11-23 15:53:08 +0000 UTC
I’ve actually seen it. I’m a big John Wayne fan and I’ve seen most of his classics several times. Rio Bravo and The Sons of Katie Elder are my favourites. I think I’ve only watched The Searchers once and that’s because I didn’t particularly enjoy it. For me, there’s a scene in the middle that ruins the story completely. Everything after that seems pointless. I realise we can’t discuss that scene, I’m just saying that it’s the reason I don’t like it as a film.
Clarence Newman
2024-11-23 15:38:17 +0000 UTC

The only downside to more horror movie reactions throughout the year (and fewer in October) would be having to listen to the people that don’t like horror movies whine and moan more frequently. Oh, and listening to them try to discourage Cassie from watching some movies because they’re “too gory”, as so many did this past October (usually a complaint they leveled at movies they admittedly had never watched). Or simply lying about the quality of a movie. Meanwhile, the rest of us receive a monthly diet that invariably includes at least one insipid rom-com.

Directors Cuts can be cool. But wish they could just take a minute to release one definitive version so when we talk about a film, we've all seen the same thing. Gets confusing.

I’m just pointing that out to the people who keep saying we can’t watch anything horror-lite outside of October - it’s already happened. But people still keep telling me it can’t.

@Richard, I had forgotten about the classic monster poll, but Cassie still focused everything else into October, outside of the two Godzilla movies if we count those.

2024-11-22 19:26:49 +0000 UTC
That’s two Maurers endorsing The Searchers. It must be a great vampire movie,
Clarence Newman
2024-11-22 19:15:48 +0000 UTC
I thought this was settled when she did the classic “monster” (horror) poll outside of October. But some people want to keep the segregation going.

Howard the Duck was a good comic, because you expect crazy thing in that world, but didn't work as a movie where he was the only wild thing in a world of normal.
William Brownlee
2024-11-22 18:43:10 +0000 UTC
I agree totally with both choices. The 1951 version is a movie I watch every year. Alistair Sims is the best Scrooge ever.
William Brownlee
2024-11-22 18:40:05 +0000 UTC
We've discussed this in previous posts of course, but some of us do favor year round reactions to scary-like content. Time to get a response from Cassie on her willingness to make this change. I'll ask her on the next YT premiere or extra butter hangout.
Joe
2024-11-22 18:33:41 +0000 UTC
I can’t remember why I liked The Seachers, I just did.
If I remember correctly, John Wayne’s character was a little more complex than usual for Wayne. Not the clean cut, good guy sherif type, more darker at times, with a hinted at shady past. I think I kinda liked him playing a slightly different character to his norm.
Mark White
2024-11-22 17:59:52 +0000 UTC
Dickens and Austen are always high on my list during Christmas. Doesn't have to be A Christmas Carol.

Why wait, we can watch it any time. It’s not super scary that it has to be segregated into the October gulag.
Richard Maurer
2024-11-22 16:27:38 +0000 UTC
Agreed, Nolo. No need to watch The Searchers.
Clarence Newman
2024-11-22 16:19:28 +0000 UTC
Not at all, Richard. It will give Cassie plenty of time to pop it on next October's schedule!

me too Gladiator II. is a big disappointment. .For a Real good gladiator movie watch. "Demetrious and the Gladiators" Gladiator lifted some scenes from it . Its a sequel to "the Robe"

I hear so-so things about Gladiator 2. It looks like it was chopped up for runtime by the studio just like Napoleon, and yet again Ridley Scott is fine to just release a director's cut when it comes to streaming, so maybe that'll be more interesting.

My holiday requests: “A Christmas Carol” (1951 British film starring Alistair Sim - still the best version imo) and “The Bishop’s Wife” (Cary Grant at his absolute peak, and a magical, romantic, heartwarming story)
Silver Machine
2024-11-22 15:13:32 +0000 UTC
You clearly have more than me, Larry, but these are the great female roles on my list (30s and 40s):
Heidi (1937) - A very small leading lady, but so delightful to watch.
Jezebel (1938) - Bette Davis filling the screen.
Gilda (1946) - So iconic they put a scene from it in Shawshank. The first poster Andy Dufresne put on his wall was of Rita Hayworth.
The Red Shoes (1947) - Grace and beauty from Moira Shearer.

IMO the 1940s was the greatest time for Christmas films. There are so many gems. Almost half of my Christmas staples come from this time.
I would love to see some re-watches of Christmas films with Cassie. I’ve been hoping for a Re-Watch of The Holiday (2006) since it is one of my Top Favorites and since it deals with Old Hollywood through the Arthur character. The list of old films featuring a dynamite leading lady, that he gives Iris, is something I’ve been trying to recreate with her. Films with actresses like Irene Dunne. (Gumption!). There are so many films from before 1970, that I know she would love.
I would also love a Re-Watch of Christmas Vacation. I’m not totally convinced she has sat down and watched it all the way through. Almost every line from that movie is quotable.

Then she should watch The Searchers, but Towering Inferno is first on Mark's list, so she should start there.
Clarence Newman
2024-11-22 14:05:38 +0000 UTC
Very true, Shehab, it's just that there's something consistently disgusting about The Penguin in that movie. You and I can easily overlook it because Catwoman is there too, but I think it would low-key gross Cassie out.

The Towering Inferno
Where Eagles Dare

I'm late to the party because I'm a victim of having no notification of this post but I will nominate some of the other great picks I've read here:
Going My Way (Bing Crosby)
The Bishop's Wife (Cary Grant)
Meet Me In St. Louis (Judy Garland)
Mike LL
2024-11-22 11:55:36 +0000 UTC
Thank you for suggesting Going My Way! She really liked Bing Crosby when she saw White Christmas, and Going My Way not only stars Bing, it is a musical and the winner of the Best Picture Oscar, Best Actor for Bing, Best Supporting Actor, Best Song, Director, and several more!
Mike LL
2024-11-22 11:42:25 +0000 UTC
My Christmas suggestions are:
Wallace & Gromit: A Grand Day Out (1989)
Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers (1993)
Wallace & Gromit: A Close Shave (1995)
These are all about half an hour each, so approximately equivalent to one movie and comfortably viewable in a single sitting. Wallace is a Yorkshireman an inventor of wacky contraptions, Gromit is his loyal canine companion (and the smarter of the pair). It's all beautifully hand animated stop-motion brimming with charm, and something of a Christmas tradition on this side of the pond.

That just made me think of The Belles of St Trinians (1954) - Alastair Sim in drag as the school headmistress. Not sure how politically correct the film is today, but George Cole is awesome as Flash Harry.
Clarence Newman
2024-11-22 09:39:59 +0000 UTC
And not in a good way. She will NOT like Devito's Penguin. She'd be better off watching Twins.

With respect to those who actually like the film, a lot of us agree that the choice of Howard was mostly by the unwashed Yolo mob from the Youtube side of town. As payback, I think Cassie should put a cardboard cutout of herself in the bed to watch the movie.
Clarence Newman
2024-11-22 09:26:55 +0000 UTC
That's not fair, Larry. Your previous posts have clearly shown you're a ringer when it comes to movies (are there any you haven't seen?) so I'm totally out of my depth. What I should have said was "you've seen all the real classic Christmas movies that I've seen and consider classic Christmas movies" --- that would've been more accurate. The purpose of my post was to lead into the suggestion of rewatching some of her favourites with us at Christmas. That request has more power if she's watched everything worth watching.
Having said that, I'm always on the lookout for new staple movies to watch at Christmas ("Last Christmas" was the most recent one), so I'm off to screengrab your post above. There must be some good stuff on there!
Clarence Newman

During a live stream, Cassie went through a list of requests by blindly scrolling through her phone (which has potential for trouble) and hit on Howard the Duck and was put on the poll. Once on a poll, chaos happens.

Cassie, my one Christmas suggestion would be "March of the Wooden Soldiers" (1934).

Any James Bond watch-a-long should include “Dr No” (1962) as the first EON Bond movie.
I make that distinction deliberately because there was a 1954 adaptation of “Casino Royale” on CBS TV in which Bond is an American agent, aided by British agent Clarence Leiter who refers to 007 as “card-sense Jimmy Bond”

He became very popular on MTV with his laid back, surfer dude personality and some studio executive somewhere probably thought of capitalizing on it. That's my guess.

Now that Cassie is a Sci-Fi junkie, I've often thought of how much she'd appreciate The Big Bang Theory and in particular the Christmas episode when Penny and Sheldon exchange gifts. I think she'd love it.

Cassie already has a reaction to Scrooged and Miracle on 34th Street (1947). Plus, she's already stated Patrick Stewart's A Christmas Carol is lock for next month.

I remember watching Howard the Duck as a kid. I can't remember if it was any good...theres no way it can be any good right? I'm definitely womp womp on the picks from the poll but you just follow your heart. You've had some really good picks in the past (like the Count of Monte Cristo).

Patrick Stewart's a Christmas Carol is already a lock according to Cassie. She's already seen Christmas Vacation (before she started the channel). She really disliked Batman 89 so I'm not sure Batman Returns is in the card anytime soon.
Shawn Kildal
2024-11-22 05:00:09 +0000 UTC
Ernest Saves Christmas (1988) is a Classic, and it has been on polls in the Past and Ernest P. Worrell is an Icon.
That “V” in V M wouldn’t stand for Vern, would it?

Some thoughts for Christmas:
Scrooged - 1998 (Bill Murray)
A Christmas Carol - 1998 (ok, its a made-for-tv-movie, but it stars one of your favorite starship captains)
Babes In Toyland - 1934 (aka March of the Wooden Soldiers, stars Laurel and Hardy), and
Miracle on 34th Street - 1947 (not one of the re-makes, just know that it isn't about a street hockey game . . . )

I've said it on the FAQ, but Bishop's Wife (1947) would be a great addition to the Christmas poll. Cary Grant (Arsenic and Old Lace, North by Northwest), David Niven, and Loretta Young. Christmas movie and a romance movie too!

I have two Christmas movies to watch 1 is "the Ref " with Dennis Leary > youll love it and "Pocket Full of Miracles" it's a romcom /fairytale Comedy that tales place during prohibition . I don't know if you're familiar with Ann-Margret but it's her first movie ever Betty Davis is the main character Glen Ford Hope Lange Peter Falk its a perfect movie by frank Capra who did " Its a Wonderfull Life "

Larry Darrell
2024-11-22 00:45:43 +0000 UTC
I have not looked to see if Cassie has seen these already but here are my suggestions.
Going My Way - 1944
Holiday Inn - 1942
March of the Wooden Soldiers - 1934
Emmet Otters Jug Band Christmas - 1977
A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas - 2011
Trapped In Paradise - 1994

Not to be confused with “Return to Paradise”. Though excellent…not a Christmas movie.

The One With the Routine (S6E10)
The One With Phoebe’s Dad (S2E9)

Even though I agree the Alistair Sims version is the best (it’s one I watched every year as a kid). The Patrick Stewart film is very good, it’s a shame they didn’t shoot it as an on stage play. So you could see him where he started acting.
Dean Holt
2024-11-21 23:58:16 +0000 UTC
Another one for Trapped in Paradise as I watch it every year.
Dean Holt
2024-11-21 23:53:23 +0000 UTC
Ohhhhhh Jesus I think this will be the first Pauly Shore movie on the channel. This and Howard the Duck could put you off 80s & 90 movies for ever 😂😂, jokes aside I think you will enjoy Son in Law as it’s just a stupid comedy. I’m looking forward to seeing what you think of Trek 3, personally I just think it feels too much like an average two part episode and nothing like a movie. But I really think you will absolutely love Four Weddings. Really love to see a British movie poll as I don’t think you watch enough of them.
Regarding Christmas movies the first one that springs to mind is A Christmas Carol from 1999 as Patrick Stewart plays Scrooge. A few others you could watch are Gremlins, Violent Night (Acton Comedy), Krampus (2015), Trapped in Paradise (Nic Cage movie), The Long Kiss Goodnight, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, Batman Returns, Santa Claus the movie and the Stallone cut of Rocky 4. But if you’re struggling just watch a few comedy like Uncle Buck or movies with snow in them like Cliffhanger hint hint lol.
Dean Holt
2024-11-21 23:48:55 +0000 UTC

2024-11-21 23:44:25 +0000 UTC
I can sit through Encino Man but that’s also Brendan Fraser’s charisma and Sean Astin being a cool normal dude. Pauly Shore will just never be my dude.

I beg to differ on Cassie having seen all the real Classic Christmas Movies.
I can think of at least 15 Terrific Classics. Some listed above.
Larry Darrell
2024-11-21 23:32:33 +0000 UTC
(-: Excuse my Tism ;-)
Remember the Night premiered on December 31, 1939 and was wide released in January of 1940. Depending on where you look, Remember the Night might have 1939 or 1940 next to it. They are the same film starring Barbara Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray.
I always put the date next to films so that Cassie knows she’s watching the right film. You did right, but I always choose to go with 1940. Just clarifying in case.
Again… excuse my Tism. ;-)

I Recommend to all you Trekkies to check out the short film ‘765874: Unification’ by the Roddenberry Archive OTOY starring William Shatner returning as Kirk. It just dropped and it’s going viral. It’s a tender wonderful tribute to Kirk, Spock, and a few surprises! Link here: https://youtu.be/mgOZFny7F50?si=n-SAQD3Wm8T_32Zk
Scott Macaulay
2024-11-21 23:11:22 +0000 UTC
Always Black & White if the film was shot in Black & White.
Colorizing Black & White is just wrong.
Agreed on 1951 with Alastair Sim being the Best Version.

Whooooaa! NO you have not seen all the Good Christmas Movies yet. Most of them are Classics, which does not mean they are less important.
Here are some that I always find the time to watch every Christmas. I know you will love these and just might make them a yearly ritual for your family.
Bachelor Mother (1939)… works for Christmas through New Years. Highly, Highly Recommended. I sent you a DVD Copy last year.
Remember the Night (1940)… Tender this one.
Meet John Doe (1941)… Frank Capra film. (It’s a Wonderful Life/Mr. Smith Goes to Washington)
Holiday Inn (1942)… the film where the song White Christmas originated, starring Fred Astaire and Bing Crosby.
The Man Who Came to Dinner (1942)… hilarious screwball romantic comedy.
Meet Me in St. Louis (1944)… starring Judy Garland where she sings “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” for the first time. This film is like Steel Magnolias in that it takes place on different holidays. Works for Christmas best though.
Christmas in Connecticut (1945)… a Delight this one.
The Bishop’s Wife (1947)… a Special Christmas film. Very Special. Highly Recommended.
It Happened on Fifth Avenue (1947)… Very Tender this one. I mentioned this film in the comments for Coming to America. I’m sure you might feel better about this movie.
Holiday Affair (1949)… starring Janet Leigh (Jamie Lee Curtis’s mom) in a lovely and delightful Holiday Romance.
A Christmas Carol (1951)… the Best Film Version, IMO.
We’re No Angels (1955)… a Dark Holiday Comedy, that is surprisingly Tender… and starring Humphrey Bogart.
Ernest Saves Christmas (1988)… this would be your perfect introduction to Ernest P. Worrell… a Pop Culture Icon. The movie is very funny and sweet as well. Ernest is most endearing.
Dutch (1991)… this is another Thanksgiving film written by John Hughes. (Planes, Trains and Automobiles). The Tender Master.
Trapped in Paradise (1994)… another Christmas Film starring Nicolas Cage. Very Funny, Very Delightful, Very Tender. You’ll love it.
Special Mention:
There are two 1940s WWII films that I have adopted as Christmas films for the past 10 years or so. They are absolute watches every Christmas Season now for me. Please consider them to watch for the holidays, even if not for a reaction. I just wish more people would watch these films.
Destination Tokyo (1943)… WWII Submarine film made during the war. It takes place at Christmas time. It’s not just the Christmas elements in the film that make this a Christmas film. The camaraderie and overall Goodness of the men in this film easily qualifies it. And there’s never been a better Christmas Morning scene on a WWII submarine before or after. Oh yeah, and it’s got Cary Grant.
Battleground (1949)… takes place in December 1944, during the Battle of the Bulge. Now talk about Camaraderie. This film was an influence on Spielberg when he was making Saving Private Ryan. This has everything a Christmas film requires and more. There’s even a Christmas Sermon, right in the middle of the… Battleground.
I also sent a DVD copy of both of these films last year.
All of these films, I Highly Recommend. Please, Please consider them…
even to watch without reacting to. ;-)
I Love this time of year by the way. :-)

All due respect to Patrick Stewart but the best portrayal of Scrooge was done by Alistair Sim in the 1951 version of A Christmas Carol and if you ever do watch it please watch the original black and white version.

"Office Christmas Party" (2016).
Maybe "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" (2005), it's Christmas-y, but my thought is to have a Shane Black week and knock over "The Last Boy Scout" (1991 - written by Black), "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" (2005 - written and directed by Black), and "The Nice Guys" (2016 - written and directed by Black). Basically a buddy crime action/comedy week generated by a single person that does it well.

KISS KISS BANG BANG (2005) get good reviews. I haven't seen it.
I guess your suggestion of Invictus (2009) fell off the face of the map. I love that movie. Though we did get Silver Linings Playbook (a top movie for me) -- that was one of your suggestions -- right?

Although the Christmas content is only about 1/5 of the movie, 1944',s Meet Me In St Louis with Judy Garland and Margret O'Brien is a great musical which introduced " Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" to the country, I think

Christmas movie suggestions? The Bishop's Wife (1947), A Christmas Carol with Sir Patrick Stewart (1999), Rise of the Guardians (2012), Christmas In Connecticut (1945), It Happened On 5th Avenue (1947). Oh, and I'll throw this one in for the shock value - The Star Wars Holiday Special!

'Eyes Wide Shut' gets higher on my Kubrick list every time I watch it. Not sure how she'd feel about it. It certainly won't put her in the traditional Christmas spirit, but it'd be interesting! I doubt it ever gets the green light tho.

Paulie Shore's stardom isn't inexplicable, it's pure nepotism. His mother owns the famous Comedy Store comedy club in Hollywood, so that's how he got his big break.
Stranger2Reality
2024-11-21 22:12:11 +0000 UTC
Unconventional Christmas recommendation- the Christmas specials for TV shows, specifically-
ALF s02e12-13 ALF's Christmas Special
MASH s09e05 Death Takes a Holiday
Ally McBeal s02e10 Making Spirits Bright
and for a nice curveball
Black Mirror s02e04 White Christmas
That's about 3 hours. Lots of variety, possibly only one "watch slot".

It's excellent, and it's a particularly comforting, cozy holiday film. Definitely one of the best films of last year (which is why it got so many awards nominations), and among the best Christmas movies I can think of. For anyone who missed it, I think it's a must watch.
Stranger2Reality
2024-11-21 22:07:20 +0000 UTC
An alternative Christmas film could be operation petticoat, it's has nothing to do with Christmas other than one scene involving a Christmas dinner, but it is feel good and a true Cassie movie. You could also watch (or probably rewatch) the Christmas film starring Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell where they play Mr & Mrs Clause. Can't remember what it is called. Just throwing another alternative out there you could watch The Hogfather based on a Terry Pratchett book of the same name... Although it is a bit out there and you will either love it or hate it.
James Moy
2024-11-21 22:06:53 +0000 UTC
Not a Christmas movie per se…
But growing up they always played “The Sound of Music” on TV at Christmas time…
I know you’re not big on musicals… but I think you would really, really like it…
Jeff Mar
2024-11-21 22:06:00 +0000 UTC
I will watch your reactions to 4 Weddings, Insurrection, and maybe Son in Law. I don't really remember 4 Weddings that well but voted for it in the poll.
First Contact is the best TNG movie. Looking forward to the Chris Pine Trek movies. Nominations for Christmas movies poll:
*Carol (2015). IMDb 7.2, Metacritic 94%, RT 94%
*Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer (1964)
*National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989). Only 1h 37min
*Eyes Wide Shut (1999). Nicole Kidman. Tom Cruise.
*Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town (1970)
*A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas (2011)
*Bad Santa (2003)
*"Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas” (1993). IMDb 7.9, Metacritic 82%, RT 95% (audience 92%)

'Batman Returns' for Christmas!
'Gladiator 2' was aight, but not more than that. It doesn't really add much to that universe. I'd say watch it in theatres instead of wasting a reaction slot on it. I feel that way about new movies in general, even if they're great.
Shehab Dawoud
2024-11-21 22:05:33 +0000 UTC

Beyond Tomorrow (also known as And So Goodbye and Beyond Christmas) is a 1940 American fantasy film directed by A. Edward Sutherland will never win a poll however it is a very tender film. It is so worth watching was never big box office but always on TV or streaming services during Christmas. Something the whole family can enjoy. Even if you don’t watch it on the channel.
Doc Larry
2024-11-21 21:51:28 +0000 UTC
You're entitled to something a bit more Cassie-friendly occasionally, especially when you're feeling ill, so don't apologise for the poll choices!🙂
I'm going to keep pushing for A Shot In The Dark, in the hopes that people eventually vote for it in sufficient numbers! "Just look at those goosepimples!"

I think you've seen all the real classic Christmas movies, Cassie. There'll be some stragglers (Patrick Stewart's version of A Christmas Carol being a prime example), but not many. As a special treat for the festive season, I'm sure quite a few of us would love to watch some old favourites at Christmas with you. The Holiday, Last Christmas, Love Actually etc. Not first time watches, obviously, but certainly a nice chunk of cosy nostalgia. Views on YT would probably be strong too.

Not that I am always correct in my predictions of Cassie's reactions (although more often than not I am), but I'm fairly confident that she'll like parts of NEMESIS (though it may be a slog for the rest of us) and yet will ultimately find it an unsatisfactory resolution for these characters. This is why I, a lot of other people, think she should eventually watch the third season of PICARD for a much better ending for this crew.
Stick Figure Studios
2024-11-21 21:47:00 +0000 UTC
THE BISHOP'S WIFE (1947) with Cary Grant should always be on a Christmas poll. Everyone loves it!
REMEMBER THE NIGHT (1939) is a Christmas rom-com that's not as well-known, so there you go :)
Paul Stelter
2024-11-21 21:45:49 +0000 UTC
Cassie will like Insurrection just fine. And I think she'll surprise us with how much she enjoys Nemesis. She loves the characters so much, she'll just enjoy it anyway.

2024-11-21 21:37:03 +0000 UTC
Christmas movie suggestion: 8-BIT CHRISTMAS (2021). Watched it last year and found it quite entertaining and somewhat nostalgic as an 80s kid.
Unconventional Christmas movie suggestion: LIFE OF BRIAN (1979). Maybe it's just me, but I usually tend to rewatch it around the Holidays every few year due to the subject matter. Monty Python, so very British humor though.
Christmas-adjacent movie suggestion: KISS KISS BANG BANG (2005). A quite underrated crime/comedy with Robert Downey Jr., Val Kilmer, and Michelle Monaghan. It's written and directed by Shane Black, so the story takes place around Christmas time as many of his.

As a Christmas movie recommendation, you absolutely should put last year's amazing film The Holdovers on your list. I feel like that is destined to become a Christmas classic, and the way it was filmed it already feels like it's from the 70s. A truly heartwarming, funny and poignant film, I can't imagine you won't love it.

I'm glad you all enjoyed Disneyland.
I wouldn't object to you watching the 90's "Miracle on 34th Street". Of course it's not as good as the original but it's still got some charm.
I'd also recommend "Arthur Christmas" (2011), "Prancer" (1989), "The Snowman" (1982), "Santa Claus: The Movie" (1985) and "The Small One" (1978) for the festive season.

True story, not kidding.
I just happened to be in Santa Monica when they were filming the scenes there for "Son in Law". I was visiting my sister who lived in Santa Monica before my first assignment in South Korea. I didn't see any actors or anything, but saw the production setup and crew.
That, is my only claim to fame for being near a Hollywood movie set / production
Edited: It was the scene where they are on the beach together.

Since I'm not a big fan of FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL (which looks like it's going to win the poll) and I loathe Pauly Shore, I have to say the only movie that I'm interested in this week is STAR TREK: INSURRECTION (and even it is one of the weaker entries in the series). Not a great week, but then they can't all be winners.
