I finally finished my bracket, now how do I submit it? The Yahoo thing doesn't seem to be working. Except for that round one Florida Atlantic pic, it has been perfect! So I have a good feeling about my chances and being able to pick five movies for everyone to vote on.
I'm thinking- Indictment: The McMartin Trial, The Last Unicorn, Space Cop, Short Time, and Moving.

To me it's conceivable that if Purdue wins she will still watch Mr. Holland's Opus. But if UConn wins, she may push Apokolips Now aside for a while. Personally, I hope she reacts to all 4 of the Final 4 movies.
Shawn Kildal
2024-04-07 08:28:11 +0000 UTC
What ever the result, I think this idea will be become an annual thing for as long as Cassie maintains the channel. I think it has grabbed all Patreon members attention. Whoever suggested the idea should be acknowledged for the idea.
Brian McGovern
2024-04-07 06:52:16 +0000 UTC
She might enjoy Apocalypse Later though. 😀
Brian McGovern
2024-04-07 06:47:45 +0000 UTC
Many times, if another was pretty close, Cassie has often worked the runner-up into the schedule as well
LuMarq
2024-04-07 05:13:28 +0000 UTC
It's not a movie to enjoy, it's a movie to feel like you're there yourself.
Bennett Holleman
2024-04-07 04:54:17 +0000 UTC
True, but even if a tough watch for her, Apocalypse Now (#30 on AFI Top 100) would be a notch on her belt as she hones her craft as a reactor.
Clay F
2024-04-07 04:40:33 +0000 UTC
Brackets aside, still need to watch Smokey and the Bandit. Cassie would love Burt and Sally's chemistry not to mention Jackie Gleason's monumental performance.
Bennett Holleman
2024-04-07 04:38:26 +0000 UTC
Yeah, definitely the theatrical version, especially for a first watch.
Clay F
2024-04-07 04:36:50 +0000 UTC
Even if she dislikes Apocalypse Now (#30 on AFI Top 100) and/or finds it icky, Apocalypse Now would be a notch on her belt as she hones her craft as a reactor. An added bonus is it should get views. (FMJ currently has 489k YT views for her.)
She might find AN a little more tolerable than FMJ. Further, hopefully, she will at least appreciate acting performances. Reacting to AN would widen her perspective. Moreover, a benefit she seems to like is she would be "in the know" on references to AN.
Clay F
2024-04-07 04:05:40 +0000 UTC
Agreed. It's not that she doesn't enjoy war films—she's loved plenty of them—but Apocalypse Now is GRIM from the first frame to the last, just like Full Metal Jacket which she was not a fan of.

Hi, if a movie doesn't win a poll it is not eliminated from future consideration in any way. In fact, many film poll winners have lost past polls and finally secured a win.
Steve Holton
2024-04-07 02:03:54 +0000 UTC
Hi, new patron ... curious: if a movie doesn't win a poll, or isn't selected for some reason, can it still be maybe selected in the future, or do they all get only one chance ?
Matt
2024-04-07 02:00:25 +0000 UTC
I really don’t think Cassie is going to enjoy Apocalypse Now

Iowa- UCONN game last night drew 14.2 million people, the last time the NBA was that high was 2022. Last year's Men's Natty got 14.7 and that's on a prime network. This wasn't even the women's championship game and this was on cable network just think what it's going be like tomorrow for South Carolina-Iowa championship game on ABC. Business is booming for women's basketball. At this rate women's basketball will over take men's if not this year then by next year. If only...... To bad there wasn't a women's bracket on here. 🤔 Kind of puzzling.
The last time Purdue made the title game...... 1969 there was no shot clock and no three point line.

Congrats to the Purdue Apocalyse Nows!
I'm so proud of the NC State Wolfpack (War of the Worlds). Can't be upset with the Pack because no one expected them to be in the Final Four.

Go "Smokey and the Bandit"
Clayton Johnson
2024-04-06 18:52:27 +0000 UTC
I do believe that as well ; that she will eventually get to these others.
Carol Rocha
2024-04-06 18:02:39 +0000 UTC

Mr. Holland's Opus is such a beautiful movie.
Colin Davis
2024-04-06 09:38:04 +0000 UTC
I think she's in this for the long haul. Most or all of these will eventually get reacted to.
Paul Cox
2024-04-06 02:23:38 +0000 UTC
Uhh sooo many good movies that won't be seen now. Total Recall, Hot Fuzz, Midnight Run, Casino, No Country for Old Men, Leon the Professional and Face/Off. Ever since Total Recall lost have to admit I lost interest in who's going to win
Chuck Schuldiner
2024-04-06 00:41:55 +0000 UTC
Tomorrow (Friday) night's Iowa vs UConn numbers will probably eclipse the Iowa vs. LSU numbers too. Clark vs Bueckers is a compelling matchup. If Iowa beats UConn tomorrow, the finale numbers will be a new record for sure, especially if USCe holds serve in the first game tomorrow night.
As a long time fan of the women's game as well as the men's, it's really nice to see the viewership numbers for the ladies. They put every bit as much time and effort into their craft as the men do.
David Collins
2024-04-04 20:00:50 +0000 UTC
You should be proud, heck I would be. There runs in 2011 and 2014 were nothing short of remarkable. Then to go through all that crap with the NCAA sanctions, firing that coach which they had every right to do. Then to come back from all of that and be on the verge of back to back Nattys. That's impressive you look at the last two back2back champions Florida and Duke neither one had to fight there way through the crap that that UCONN did.
The stars that they have produced Richard Hamilton, Kemba Walker e.tc.
I didn't think they were going to do it but honestly crunching the numbers. Purdue has the best shot but honestly, if UCONN plays Purdue it won't be close. I mean anything can happen but Alabama doesn't have the size to compete with UCONN. Purdue comes from a conference that hasn't won a Natty since Michigan St. did it 2000 and Michigan in 1989. The last time Purdue was in the Natty was 1969 when the got beat by UCLA.
Zachary K.
2024-04-04 16:43:50 +0000 UTC
UConn Men (proud alum here) has won 5 men's NCAA Championships since 1999. That's two more than the next closest teams with 3 (UNC and Duke) in that period. And with 3 different coaches and completely different team structures and systems for all of them.
Above Average Dave
2024-04-04 16:27:18 +0000 UTC
Wow The Iowa-LSU game on Monday night averaged 12.4 million viewers at it peak 16 million viewers. It was the highest rated game on ESPN men's or women's ever. It got higher ratings then the NBA Finals, The Worlds Series most college football games with the exception of Michigan-Ohio State, SEC championship. Higher ratings then every major league game last season. Women's basketball is more exciting, more fun than watching UCONN men win by 30.
Zachary K.
2024-04-04 14:40:19 +0000 UTC
UConn has a 7 footer who can probably slow Edey down a bit so I'm optimistic.
David Collins
2024-04-04 09:17:03 +0000 UTC
That's a great question because her family attends every game! I think she and Kate Martin room together off campus and I'll bet they have roommates who aren't on the team - perhaps one of them, I would guess.
David Collins
2024-04-04 09:16:00 +0000 UTC
I had no idea she had a dog named Bella? I wonder who watches her dog when she is away?
Zachary K.
2024-04-03 22:47:53 +0000 UTC
Caitlin went BEAST mode Monday night. I feel sorry for anyone who missed that game!
David Collins
2024-04-03 22:25:04 +0000 UTC
I don't know if she'll hate it exactly but I don't see her ranking it very high when it comes to movie ranking time. I can appreciate the movie for the most part, but I am not a huge fan - I can take it or leave it. But I'll watch it again for sure if she does. And I generally love war movies.
David Collins
2024-04-03 22:13:37 +0000 UTC
Nobody knows about it, which is terribly sad. It flew way under the radar - the name doesn't make one think "must see" and it didn't get heavily promoted. It deserved awards.
David Collins
2024-04-03 22:09:54 +0000 UTC
I remember that 1998 finish like it was yesterday. Seemed like the clock slowed down at the end, that ball batted and bopped around for what seemed like forever before Rip got that final fall away look up.
David Collins
2024-04-03 22:03:26 +0000 UTC
The way UConn has playing, it's practically a shoe in - although anything can happen. Purdue's Zach Edey is a problem for most people but UConn has the size to deal with him so I am very optimistic.
David Collins
2024-04-03 21:56:25 +0000 UTC
Cassie is going to LOVE Mr. Hollands Opus. I am 100% certain of it.
David Collins
2024-04-03 21:54:34 +0000 UTC
As most war movies are. As long as she stays away from the extended edition, she's ok.....
JRCortez
2024-04-03 19:35:19 +0000 UTC
Or just watch the 53 version and stop... (I'm genuinely baffled by the apparent love for Spielberg's version, it's one of his biggest misfires)
Robin T
2024-04-03 18:33:42 +0000 UTC
Zach Edey the star seven-foot four center from Purdue is from Toronto Canada...I still hope to watch Mr. Holland's Opus.
John Liebling

Oh, I didn't notice any, good to know. Thanks!

I’ve seen 2 I think. Always up for watching again. Love it!
Carol Rocha
2024-04-02 22:09:30 +0000 UTC
Oh boy, Apocalypse Now is a tough watch.
Mike Smith
2024-04-02 16:21:15 +0000 UTC
Yeah. There are so many movies that I would love to see reactions to on this channel that I know, deep down, will never happen.
John Casamassa
2024-04-02 15:07:26 +0000 UTC
I hope she watches all 4, but I'm still pulling for UConn.

Watch all 4 of these movies
Matt Atkinson
2024-04-02 11:20:57 +0000 UTC
There are a few reactions (I know of three). It's my personal favourite of the final four and I am pretty confident Cassie would love it. :-)
René Ferland
2024-04-02 08:35:27 +0000 UTC
All good, but Cassie will hate Apocalypse Now. Rooting for Uconn.
Super Powered Design (Jim)
2024-04-02 06:31:09 +0000 UTC
Super curious if Cassie is only watching the winner, or perhaps the final 2, or the entire final 4 since each category represents a winner. My guess is the final 2, but I have no idea.
Shawn Kildal
2024-04-02 06:27:02 +0000 UTC
How does Mr. Holland's Opus beat Training Day? I call shenanigans.
Joshua s. Jackson
2024-04-02 02:50:52 +0000 UTC
Cassie. There’s a movie out there waiting for you. You have to watch Sicario with Emily Blunt and Benecio del Toro. Best thriller about the fight against the Mexican drug cartels ever made.
Michael Mittleman
2024-04-02 02:40:54 +0000 UTC
Mr. Holland's Opus is so underrated! And I'm pretty sure there are no movie reactions to it, so you would be the first.
Annie519
2024-04-02 02:22:49 +0000 UTC
It's hard to believe that just 25 years ago UCONN changed the course of the entire program in 13 seconds. In one of the most incredible plays in tournament history.
https://youtu.be/HxoXNow2ORM?si=sp27DMoWSwH9fjZW
It was this that led them to "Shocking the World" in 1999 by beating Duke which no one expected. Everyone said they couldn't do it. Then in 2004 the beat Georgia Tech to win their second title
Then the most improbable run in 2011 with Kemba Walker and that incredible 11 game run. Then in 2014 with second year head coach. Kevin Ollie which they were led by Shabazz Napier and they were a #7 seed and beat #8 seeded Kentucky. Kentucky hasn't been back to the Natty since.
Zachary K.
2024-04-01 23:28:39 +0000 UTC
I like all four movies. It'll be fun to know who will win in the end. But I think all of them are worth watching.
René Ferland
2024-04-01 21:56:22 +0000 UTC
I need to know this as well. Going to scroll for Jon Johns lol
Carol Rocha

Mr Holland’s Opus!
Carol Rocha
2024-04-01 21:54:38 +0000 UTC
OPUS and SMOKEY, some one has to loose, many have to cry. I'm leaning Bama just because it might be the only way to see Cassie experience Beauford T Justice.
Jason Fulbright
2024-04-01 21:46:30 +0000 UTC
Do you mean the remake? Cuz the OG is equal parts intriguing and hokey (of its time, though). And I never want to pass on a film with Ronny Cox!
Marja
2024-04-01 21:02:43 +0000 UTC
Lots of talk about watching All 4. I’m liking this. Hoping it’s true. :-)

Soooooo, so hoping for Mr. Holland's Opus. It's a precious gem that gets me thinking about so many different aspects of life.
Shin Yeji
2024-04-01 20:37:11 +0000 UTC
Don't think Alabama has much of a chance against UConn, but I would like to see Cassie react to Smokey and the Bandit. It is just a fun, silly movie. Jackie Gleason steals the movie in a lot if ways. It is a shame that m ost people only know him from this movie and not his TV show or his great show, The Honeymooners.
William Brownlee
2024-04-01 20:02:40 +0000 UTC
Since everything I root for loses, let's go Purdue!
Mike Lemon
2024-04-01 19:31:55 +0000 UTC
Now that the Final Four is set, I would like Cassie to react to all 4 movies.

I got up to 4th place in the bracket, then Tennessee flubbled it. Maybe if I knew or cared about college basketball I might have had a better system for choosing winning teams than random selection. But, alas, I know movies, not basketball.
D. T. Nelson
2024-04-01 17:42:07 +0000 UTC
When the bracket went up, the movie I most wanted to win was "Mr. Holland's Opus". Now I think there's a chance it may actually win....
Cliff Endicott
2024-04-01 17:22:05 +0000 UTC
It’s Smokey and the bandit, apocalypse now, Mr hollands opus, and war of the worlds as our final four. A fine selection of films !!
Neil Varma
2024-04-01 15:26:20 +0000 UTC
So your watching all Final Four finalist?
Sergio H
2024-04-01 14:14:28 +0000 UTC
I have mentioned this before but... I think it makes some sense to watch the 1953 version of War of the Worlds before the 2005 version. Makes for a fun comparison. But I understand if it's difficult to fit into the schedule.
Grad
2024-04-01 13:13:48 +0000 UTC
Out of these 4, the only one I think Cassie will love is Opus. Have not seen Smokey, although I think she may like that. For some reason I was thinking of Best LittlecWhorehouse in Texas. Think she will hate Apocalypse Now and may not love WOTW.
Brian McGovern
2024-04-01 04:04:43 +0000 UTC
I think she implied (see video link at 3:35) that she will watch all 4 (the winner of each genre), but not sure.

Sad about the Comedy outcome; I really do think Cassie would have liked Bill & Ted. And I admit I’ve never seen War of the Worlds and ashamed to admit that I HAVE seen Total Recall.

unknown at this time. We can only hope. When I said "we have our Final Four" I admit I was talking about the teams, and the movies are only incidental. I'm much more excited as a college basketball fan and an NC State fan about the games than the movies. 😂
Mike LL
2024-03-31 23:55:23 +0000 UTC
so she watches all four?
William Bryan
2024-03-31 23:53:13 +0000 UTC
That would have been good too. The ladies love an inspiring sports movie and they're certainly familiar with hockey...

2024-03-31 21:00:53 +0000 UTC
As a lifelong fan of the Vols, I’m sad to see them go. On the upside, “Tears of the Sun” is an absolutely terrible movie (it took me several tries to get thru it without falling asleep or changing to something else out of sheer boredom and I don’t remember a single frame of the movie several years later) while “Apocalypse Now” is one of the all-time great war movies (it’s on my short list of movies that I watch when it comes on tv, even though I own the blu ray).
PS: Rooting for Duke/Total Recall, for the sole reason that I like Total Recall far more than Spielberg’s version of War of the Worlds. I’m hoping that Cassie decides to watch all four of the Final Four movies.
Just Plain Bob
2024-03-31 20:58:26 +0000 UTC
Purdue just beat Tennessee. Duke vs North Carolina State is next.
William Brownlee

I never officially picked my bracket, but I'm happy to see that 5 of my teams/movie picks made it to the Final 8. Again, a very helpful way to relate to this material. 😁
Exactly how many movies will be chosen at the end: Four, two, or will there be only one? 😁

I seriously want a prop bet where I can bet every dollar I have on Edey playing in Europe in 3 years. (I saw one mock draft that had the Bucks drafting him and I wanted to absolutely scream.) The fact that he's going to be back to back National Player of the Year is a sad sad joke.

If Cassie only watched movies she knew beforehand she'd enjoy, her channel probably wouldn't be doing as well. And she has said that she never watches anything she doesn't want to watch. So let's trust her to do her thing.

I would love for her to see The Killing Fields. And in terms of Vietnam era movies I would love to see her take on Hair. I definitely agree about Mr. Smith Goes to Washington and think she would also enjoy You Can't Take it With You, another Jimmy Stewart classic.

This movie is going to skyrocket to the top of Cassie's favorite movie lists. With any luck, it will result in some more Richard Dreyfus movies too. Like "Always", I hope.
David Collins
2024-03-31 06:12:06 +0000 UTC
Tom Cruise in Born on the Fourth of July will be plenty emotional for Cassie, if she decides to watch it in a later this year and it will be an interesting mix if she watches 1776, Pride of the Yankees - Cassie like true stories and sports stories, she'll enjoy the life story of Lou Gehrig, and the musical - I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy, and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington - Staring Jimmy Stewart, she's always like Jimmy Stewart movies; hopefully she'll tackle all during the first two weeks of July.

Well, just because she got through one, or rather two, doesn't mean she'll enjoy Apocalypse, she'll put on a brave face, and get through it, but I don't think it will be an experience she'll enjoy.
John Liebling
2024-03-31 06:01:31 +0000 UTC
As often happens, it ends up being movies I've either never seen (Mr Holands Opus), seen too many times to look forward to a reaction that much (Bill and Ted), or saw once and remember only being bored by as a kid (Thomas Crown Affair) that end up winning.

William Brownlee

Agreed. Of the movies left, The Thomas Crown Affair is far and away the film that Cassie and Carli would have enjoyed most.

Of all the movies left, The Thomas Crowne Affair is far and away the movie that Cassie and Carli would enjoy the most. Concerns over sex/nudity are unfounded, the movie is practically PG.
Story Archer
2024-03-31 03:46:33 +0000 UTC
Of all the movies left, I'm confidant in saying that you and Carli would enjoy the Thomas Crown Affair most. People forget that just because a movie is THEIR favorite, that doesn't mean it's going to be your favorite - that kind of thinking is how we ended up with Big Trouble in Little China.
Story Archer
2024-03-31 03:42:04 +0000 UTC
"Mr. Hollands Opus" is the biggest and brightest gem of the entire field, hands down. It's got zero chance of ever winning a poll so I'm excited that it got attached to the team most likely to win the whole thing. First time in my life I've ever been a Uconn fan.

I don't know, but it has been mentioned multiple times in previous reactions how sensitive Carly is about that (not that Cassie is exactly thrilled about that kind of content either, but it seems like she's somehow more able to deal with it then Carly is).

I am pulling for Clemson (Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure) over Alabama (Smokey & the Bandit), even though I am an SEC guy. Alabama is currently winning 35-32 at half time.
I like Smokey & the Bandit. A classic that was part of our culture (I remember). Plus, has Burt Reynolds, Sally Field, and Jackie Gleason. But Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure is more my type of movie, and cool to see a young Keanu Reeves in that role.
Clay F
2024-03-31 01:45:08 +0000 UTC
Mister Hollands Opus (Uconn) is the best movie left. Thomas Crown Affair (Illinois) is an average heist movie.
Smokey & the Bandit (Alabama) is a classic 70's movie
Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (Clemson) is 80's Keanu cheese in a good way.
Apocalypse Now (Purdue) is a boring overhyped 70's war movie.
Tears of the Sun (Tennessee) is a bad depressing movie.
Total Recall (Duke) is an 80's Arnold at his cheesy best.
War of the Worlds (NC State) is an average Cruise Sci-Fi.

You know Georgetown thought they had it all won too. They were going for back2back too In 1985 they went up against Villanova in the Natty a team they had beaten twice that year. And yet Villanova won it. One of the biggest upsets of all time. Well at least Caitlin Clark and Iowa won again. They are headed back to the Elite 8.

I may be wrong, but I was thinking that 4 movies will be watched. Each regional (genre) winner. In other words, the movies of the 4 teams that go to the Final Four will be watched?
She implies in this video at 3:35 she would watch each genre winner -- the Final Four. Not sure.

2024-03-30 21:05:41 +0000 UTC
Just FYI: if you do end up watching THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR (which I'm not opposed to as I think it's a good movie, though still inferior to the Steve McQueen / Faye Dunaway original), you might not want to watch it with Carly as there are some sex scenes that are surprisingly explicit in their nudity for a mainstream movie (even an R-rated one) that she could have difficulty with. It may star James bond, but it is not as relatively family-friendly as Bond movies tend to be.

Yes I also wondered how those two movies ended up in the same category. Several months ago I also would have said that Apocalypse Now is an inappropriate movie for Cassie but I gave up thinking in those terms after she saw Kill Bill. At least in this movie the violence has a point.

Mister Holland’s Opus (so you can get out that baton you used in Amadeus for another conducting picture); Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure (you’ll love Keanu in this); Apocalypse Now (it’s as intense, heavy and long as movies get but you can take it at this point - watch the three hour Final Cut version released in 2019); and….I can’t in good conscience recommend either of the Action/Adventure movies. Watch Hoop Dreams instead, to remind yourself what’s really at stake in these games.
jdj830
2024-03-30 20:30:21 +0000 UTC
Sad to see Uncle Buck, Training Day & Hot Fuzz all go. But they are still a few excellent movies in the running. I’m hoping Bill & Ted or Total Recall gets the win.

Rooting for Tennessee since I’ve lived here my entire life and have been a fan for 45+ years, even though I don’t much care for “Tears of the Sun.” I’m fervently hoping that Illinois loses because the remake of “The Thomas Crown Affair” is hot garbage, with Rene Russo’s performance being particularly god-awful. Also rooting for Alabama because I think it’s the only way that Cassie ever watches “Smokey and the Bandit”, which is a shame because I think she’d love it (just ask Kaiielle how she liked it).
Just Plain Bob

Mister Holland's Opus could not be more different compared to Training Days. And I still don't think Apocalypse Now is a movie for Cassie.

2024-03-30 19:35:37 +0000 UTC

There is three teams that can beat UCONN first Tennessee can because of their guard play. Second NC State because they just keep winning.
Last Purdue. While the Big Ten has only won two National Championships in the last 35 years and both hale from the state of Michigan. Purdue could pull a shocker. Nothing is set in stone many teams have tried to win back to back many have failed something Micheal Jordan and North Carolina couldn't even do.

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure was good like a long time ago early 90's maybe? You want to see coming of age 90's movies similar to the Breakfast Club? Mallrats (1995) and Friday (1995) these movies I have seen them so many times I know them by heart. Both of coming of age moves

As I've said before I'm a huge NC State fan, but besides their success, this has been a very enjoyable tournament so far with some wildly entertaining games. I had to work during NC State's second round victory over Oakland, but I have managed to be off of work for the remaining days that the tournament games will be played, so I won't miss a game going forward. I'm not saying I'm expecting anything, but folks, NC State is real, and don't be surprised about how far they go. GO WOLFPACK! #whynotus?

Mike LL
2024-03-30 18:18:30 +0000 UTC
Well, the Elite 8 is now set. Still a few movies I'm rooting for: War of the Worlds (2005), Tears of the Sun (2003), and The Thomas Crown Affair (1999). I'm hoping Cassie just reacts to all the films that make the final four, but she hasn't said what she will do yet.

I'm a bama fan and still am scared they don't have much of a chance if they make the final 4. It looks like the opponent would probably be UConn and they seem to be playing the best of anyone. Not many movies left I care about either. Mr. Holland's Opus is nice, but just doesn't do much for me and I was a teacher. Lol

NC State, I said this on YouTube only one #11 seed as ever reached the final four and that was Loyola-Chicago in 2018. Which got beat my Michigan in the National Semifinals.
This feels a lot like the 2014 tournament in that tournament UCONN was a #7 seed which took on the #8 seed Kentucky. Which UCONN made one of the most improbable runs in tournament history. UCONN Illinois game should be interesting. UCONN is the first National Champions to reach the elite eight the very next year since Florida 2006-2007.

The 4 reactions will be:
Drama/Romance = Mister Hollands Opus or Thomas Crown Affair
Comedy = Smokey & the Bandit or Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure
Action/Adventure = Total Recall or War of the Worlds
War = Apocalypse Now or Tears of the Sun
Elite 8
1. UConn/Mister Hollands Opus vs. 3. Illinois/Thomas Crown Affair
4. Alabama/Smokey & the Bandit vs. 6. Clemson/Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure
4. Duke/Total Recall vs. 11. NC State/War of the Worlds
1. Purdue/Apocalypse Now vs. 2. Tennessee/Tears of the Sun

NC State beat Marquette and. Purdue beat Gonzaga. 2 games left in the sweet 16.

I'm hoping the Final Four will be:
Training Day
Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure
Tora Tora Tora
The Rocketeer
Worthy alternates are:
Hot Fuzz
Total Recall
Ready Player One
Cassie and Carly watched Point Break so they'll probably enjoy Hot Fuzz. Total Recall is an Arnie '90s classic -- might be another good choice for Carly too. Ready Player One would be the culmination of watching so many popular movies from the past 40+ years -- it would be its own trivia game to test if Cassie catches all the references.
Rod Reavern

Who is your team. I went to Alabama when Bear Bryant was still there and grew up only about 40 miles from Tuscaloosa so I have been an Alabama fan my whole life. I know some bama fans can be a lot to handle. My brother when he was alive was a mean bama fan and didn't even go to college. Are you an Auburn fan or just don't like bama on general terms? Lol

Sweet Sixteen. I am pulling for:
--"Training Day" (because of Denzel's Oscar-winning performance) in the Drama/Romance regional.
--"Apocalypse Now" in the War regional. Ranked #30 on the American Film Institute (AFI) 100 Greatest American Films Of All Time.
--"Uncle Buck" or "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" in the Comedy regional. I have nostalgia for Uncle Buck, and like the John Candy charm. R.I.P.
--"Total Recall" in the Action/Adventure regional.

You mean the French plantation? I always thought that was interesting and added something, as the French involvement in Vietnam is often forgotten. There's also the symbolism of the journey up the river also being a journey through time.
But I'm a History teacher, so I love stuff like that. I understand why it would be insignificant to her.

Jon Johns, what she is saying is that the FAQ post always pinned at the top has been replaced by THIS March Madness post, which is the top pinned post currently. I suspect that when this tournament is over on April 8 that the FAQ pinned post will return to the top spot again.
Mike LL
2024-03-25 20:53:26 +0000 UTC
I agree, with all due sarcasm...it's because Cassie went back in time and made it possible for Patrick Ewing to become the #1 pick for New York Knicks - and the rest is Herstory.

In the interest of letting Cassie rest could impose upon you as i know you are like Cassie's right hand man. When I would sign in to see the weekly "Upcoming" posts there was a kind of welcome page where the do's and don't where listed that also told you how to request a movie. I can not find it now, have I just lost the plot or did it get moved? Thanks Jon

There is also a series of interviews I think you and Carly would enjoy. Maybe watch with your dad. On youtube: A conversation with Jimmy Doohan, Star Trek's Scotty (1994) By the way, 1994 is the year the Next Generation went off the air and they started to produce the next 4 movies.
John Liebling
2024-03-25 19:17:06 +0000 UTC
Cassie, I know you're not feeling well. The best antidote for pain, is laughter. Not for your channel, but for your personal use, on youtube check take look at a blast from the past, when Lenard Nimoy was still healthy, I'd guess it is 2009...that's when the Chris Pine reboot Star Trek came out. So, search for on youtube: The Funniest Star Trek Convention of All Time (Kirk and Spock) Clearly in real life, at least at that moment Shatner and Nimoy are very good friends. You can also see the different personalities. At the time of that convention, they'd been friends for over 40 years.
John Liebling
2024-03-25 19:15:17 +0000 UTC
Several upsets there, but really hoping for Mr Holland's Opus for my own personal history, as well as Rounders. Both are great and very different films.

I think Cassie would enjoy this flick, especially the love story, Fred the dog and maybe even the car chases, but I doubt that she, unlike many others, would go ga-ga over Burt Reynolds..he is just not her type!
J. Allen Hynek

That's definitely a graphic for the original, but elsewhere in the thread it's been said the remake is actually the one in contention.

I’ve never seen either (which isn’t like me) but if druthers were being handed out, I’d go with Steve McQueen seven days a week and twice on Sunday.
Sidebar: has anyone seen The Tao of Steve? Charming little 2000 indie comedy. I’ll say no more!

Creighton for two reasons. I was stationed in Omaha 3 times, Creighton's hometown and "A Bridge Too Far" is a great flick.
Pat Murray
2024-03-25 18:16:44 +0000 UTC
That's a decent comparison. Though I would say that even supporting smaller teams in, say, Futbol, there's so much history, tradition, and sometimes even politics involved. And those things are passed down through generations. I don't know if it's on that scale with College sports.
It would also be weird for me to properly support a College team knowing the best players would be gone after a year or two. If I went to that school and played for that team, it might be different. But again, cultural differences. It's definitely interesting.

Although I am more interested in the women's tournament then the men's. I know every national championship in men's tournament since 1965. Since 1975 which ended the UCLA dynasty with UCLA's win over Kentucky there have been only two back to back winners. Duke in 1991-92 and Florida 2006-2007. Georgetown from the Big East with Patrick Ewing came close but got beat by Villanova . In 1985
UCONN has there share of championships 5 since 1999, but never back to back.
Going by years the ACC is due for a national championship but not overdue. The last one coming in 2019 with Virginia. What I am saying is history is on North Carolina's side not UConn's.
The Big Ten is the worst at this tournament the last team to win it was Michigan St, in 2000. Nothing but losers since then 2002 Indiana, 2005 Illinois, 2007 Ohio State, 2009 Michigan St. 2013 Michigan, 2015 Wisconsin, 2018 Michigan. The last time Purdue came close was in 1969 when they lost to UCLA, in the Natty.

Don’t know about the teams, but some fine movies in there. Hot Fuzz! Yay, finally one of the Corneto trilogy has a chance. Thomas Crown, just because Steve McQueen is the coolest. John Candy at his finest in Uncle Buck. Ready Player One with its reference-a-rama.

We cheer for professional teams fervently, but there are too few to go around, so, regionally, folks cheer for more 'local' teams. Also, some of these university teams have larger stadiums than the pros! If you think about it more like relegated teams vs championship league teams, it might seem more reasonable?
Jon Johns
2024-03-25 17:57:49 +0000 UTC
I am in the odd predicament that I went to UConn and actually bleed Husky Blue so my interests are deeply vested here, Mr. Holland aside. 🤣

Oh man…I’m starting to slide down the leaderboard. But my Number 1 is still in it! As long UConn/Mr Holland’s Opus goes all the way I’ll be happy. And I’ve still got several other favorites in the running (Uncle Buck, War of the Worlds, Bill & Ted, Total Recall, The Rocketeer). Time to start biting the fingernails…Looney Tunes style.

It's always interesting as a European to reflect on the differences between sports here and in America. The passion Americans have for their school teams, even those that didn't actually attend that school, always surprises me. We don't have school sports here, but even if we did, it would pale in comparison to the passion we have for our professional clubs.
My two cents aside, I'm definitely rooting for Purdue, as Apocalypse Now is by far the best film on and has been from the start.

I also like how NC State's game against Marquette is a rematch of the 1974 National Championship possibly setting up a rematch of the 1983 National Championship game between NC State and Houston. Of course I am getting WAY ahead of myself and possibly upsetting some Duke, Houston, and Marquette fans, so I will see myself out. Thank you. GO PACK!
Mike LL
2024-03-25 17:47:44 +0000 UTC

The movie studios are corporations, and corporations are run by close minded people without the ability to see beyond their greedy simplistic view that someone is making money off their product in a way they didn't think of themselves, therefore it must be bad and must be stopped. Never underestimate the greed and idiocy of the corpo mind.

I'm torn here... I'd love for Cassie to watch "The DaVinci Code", but I'm pretty sure that the movie SHE would enjoy the most out of all 4 groups is "An Officer And A Gentleman". I'd also love to see her reaction to "Tears Of The Sun" even though it's a hard watch. It may be Bruce Willis' best acting in any film.
Most of all though, I have to hope Vermont loses. Cassie would absolutely HATE "Starship Troopers"! It's great to challenge her and all, but that one would just be torture for her!

Dan M
2024-03-23 16:28:24 +0000 UTC
So far I’d say I’m doing pretty well. Some of my favorites have made it through the first round (Uncle Buck, Midnight Run, Monty Python, War of the Worlds), and I’ve had some tough losses (Stripes, Casino, Tin Cup, Gettysburg). But Mr Holland’s Opus/UConn, my number one seeds, are moving forward! So excited!
This was really a great idea, Cassie! Perhaps we can do this again with other sports…baseball and the post season would be my personal pick.

I'm betting it's gonna be UConn/Mr. Holland's Opus vs. Houston/Ready Player One for the final match up.

My thoughts exactly. Now that my daughter is at Penn State I follow college football. But up until Cassie’s idea, I had no interest in following college basketball. This was a great way of combining sports and movies.

UConn/Mr Hollands Opus make it through round one! Our wait to see Cassie And Carly’s reaction to this movie may soon be over! GO HUSKIES!

Yes, ever since that fateful year, both of our teams have struggled mightily and haven't had any real success for decades. It's good to meet and converse with like-minded folks that, no matter the circumstances, can still find common ground. Thanks for bringing us together, Cassie! lol

Lusia “Lucy” Harris - “The Queen of Basketball” would be a great documentary short film for Women’s History Month. She was one of the women’s professional basketball pioneers and she was also the first and only woman officially drafted by the NBA. First woman to score in women’s basketball at the Olympics, too, among other first to her name … she was an incredible human being.

Mr. Hollands Opus is a marvelous gem. I have no horse in the tourney race, so I'm all in for UCONN.

I lived in San Diego for 20 years, so I was happy to see them paired with Training Day, too! Would be nice to see them win and get a great movie to go with it.

I would love her to watch Lost in Translation, and, since I'm currently in Seattle, there's another reason to root for the boys from Gonzaga. Also hoping my alma mater in So. Cal does well, too; however, I'm not too interested in Training Day.

I can personally feel your pain because my Wolfpack has very rarely felt the highs of the sports world since that historic game. In fact we have been lost in the wilderness for many years, including this one, until last week, lol. How ironic that the two of us, on opposite sides so many years ago, should meet in this community. Have hope, your team certainly has a better chance for success this year than mine!
Mike LL
2024-03-23 01:57:45 +0000 UTC
My hopes for bracket winners: Training Day or Mr. Holland's Opus, Raising Arizona or Uncle Buck, Jack Reacher or Ready Player One, Tears of the Sun. GO U of Houston Coogs!!!
Damon
2024-03-23 01:56:20 +0000 UTC
The number 1 seeds in each section is the best team on down to the 16th team.
Damon
2024-03-23 01:54:55 +0000 UTC
My biggest heartbreak in my personal sports history is when, in 1983, my University of Houston Cougars lost to your Wolfpack at the buzzer. My heart still hurts to this day every time I see that highlight (lowlight) during the tournament. lol

I'm rooting so hard for Illinois/Thomas Crown Affair... I like the movie just fine, but you two ladies will absolutely LOVE it. I also want to see the other #3 seed win - Midnight Run is a guilty pleasure, but I think you two will really enjoy the 'odd-couple' aspect of it.

I believe Cassie and Carly are going to love ‘Mr. Holland’s Opus’ as the best tribute to teachers ever and one of best Richard Dreyfus movies! I really think UConn is winning this thing.

I can only say one thing, I think I have the best anti-bracket. That is one where all the teams you picked to win lose. Lol I am an Alabama fan, but I thought Kentucky and Auburn could both win a couple of games and both lost to much lower seeds. My SEC teams are just playing awful. Now I am just pulling for someone who likes classic movies to win. Lol

Roland Emmerich Midway by the way. Can’t remember if the year is mentioned.
Brian McGovern
2024-03-22 23:09:25 +0000 UTC
Rooting for:
--"Lost in Translation" (or "An Officer and a Gentleman") in the Drama/Romance region.
--"Uncle Buck" or "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" in the Comedy region.
--"Children of Men" or "2001: A Space Odyssey" in the Action/Adventure region. I also like "Wonder Woman" but I don't see Oakland making it to the Final Four.
--APOCALYPSE NOW in the War regional. C'mon Purdue (No. 1 seed in that region).
My main focus is:
[1] Apocalypse Now (1979) [which has a decent chance] and
[2] Lost in Translation (2003) [yet, I don't see Washington St winning all three games -- Iowa St, likely Illinois, and likely UConn].
If Apocalypse Now (1979) wins the war bracket, that would be awesome. I think Cassie will find more tolerable than FMJ. No boot camp, and more back story on characters in AN.

2024-03-22 23:08:36 +0000 UTC
Quite fortunate I would say. Stripes, a war movie? I love the movie, but really, it does not know what it wants to be. It is like Full Metal Jacket turned into a comedy.

Rooting for Illinois/Thomas Crown Affair. But which TCA film. The original one starring Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway filmed in (1968)? Or the one starring Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo (1999)? I love the 1999 one, but I have never seen the 1968 version.

Tora, Tora, Tora would be a great vid for Pearl Harbor Day. I'm just disappointed The Longest Day didn't get drawn, with Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan already done, it would have been a great pick for the 80th Anniversary of D-Day this year.

2024-03-22 22:37:41 +0000 UTC
Thanks to Cassie's creativity, this is the 1st time in my life I have ever paid attention to March Madness! So, here's hoping New Mexico or Alabama wins so Cassie can react to Blazing Saddles or Smokey and the Bandit!
Carmen Mclaren

War bracket is a massacre. Apt I guess. Lost some great ones. Downfall and Deer Hunter would have been my picks.

I just did post a comment on the Discord saying that this whole teams/movies competition is very confusing until after the first weekend. After this weekend, there will only be 16 teams/movies left, and it will be far easier to focus on the remaining survivors.

This was a good idea pairing movies with basketball teams. I don't follow college basketball so this is a helpful way for me, personally, to relate to the material.
Some upsets but there are still a few teams/picks that made it through the first round. 😁

I've been a huge NC State fan my whole life! Go Wolfpack! Seeing them win the game last night in convincing fashion, and seeing so many expert's brackets get broken was very satisfying. Too bad I have to work tomorrow during State's game, and during Cassie's live! I'm heartbroken, but there was no way I could have foreseen I would need tomorrow off! Play on, and have fun everyone! I am!
