Ben's Birthday Poll!
Added 2023-06-20 19:54:33 +0000 UTCIt's Ben's birthday this week, how have we not done a Ben Poll ever!? Well I have watched most of his favs already (Rocky, Rudy, Shawshank, Inception, Lord of the Rings) so these are reaching for him a bit, some nostalgia picks etc. He wants to clarify this is a pretty random list-he didn't want a far and away winner like Interstellar?
Happy Birthday Benny Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo

Surprised butterfly effect didn’t do better . The directors cut is one of few films that made me cry

2023-07-19 09:28:33 +0000 UTCMy Cousin Mose: Yeah, but the thing is, I'm not sure if the little "coda" that I mentioned was originally part of the theatrical cut. Again, as presented on the DVD, I got the impression that that was a bonus feature, a.k.a. something they decided not to use (but then ended up as the permanent ending because it was added to the streaming ending). Did anyone here actually see Butterfly Effect in the theater to confirm (in vague terms) what the actual ending was originally?
WastedPo
2023-06-28 19:41:29 +0000 UTCCompletely agree. It’s just Hollywood $ grab crap
Russell Teo
2023-06-28 19:14:26 +0000 UTCTHE HUSTLER is a must-see. THE COLOR OF MONEY not so much. It ain't bad, but it's unnecessary. If you want to watch it, you have to see THE HUSTLER first.
Stick Figure Studios
2023-06-28 07:53:18 +0000 UTC@WastedPo what you say it true but I don't think the theatrical ending ruins the movie. I prefer the director's cut but still like both.
My_Cousin_Mose
2023-06-27 04:07:32 +0000 UTCShe has indeed seen Rudy before the channel.
My_Cousin_Mose
2023-06-27 04:00:29 +0000 UTCInsomnia is the ONLY movie I don’t hate Robin Williams for overacting. It’s like watching what Chris Tucker can really do in Silver Lining Playbook when there’s no cocaine kicking in
Russell Teo
2023-06-25 14:39:01 +0000 UTCMy problem with The Butterfly Effect is that, as far as I know, the ending that's available on streaming is only one of like 3 endings. I remember a long time ago when I'd rented the DVD copy, the director commentary walked us through three versions of the ending. And now the ending (specifically the cheesy little coda) that the directors implied wasn't their favorite is now the permanent ending of the streaming version. Meanwhile, the Director's Cut ending (which is the one that I liked the most) is basically unavailable, unless someone buys an older physical copy.
WastedPo
2023-06-25 13:26:39 +0000 UTCMinority Report is a great choice for the winner of the poll... Even though The Butterfly Effect and Encino Man scored the lowest you should definitely react to them someday ESPECIALLY The Butterfly Effect. That's one of my all time favorite's.
David Forbes
2023-06-25 09:19:18 +0000 UTCI would pair "The Color of Money" with "The Hustler" as a double feature since The Hustler is something of a prequal and it sets up the backstory for the Paul Newman character and context for The Color of Money, plus it is also a great movie.
RandyCC
2023-06-24 05:52:29 +0000 UTCWell, we could be getting a Tom Cruise double feature in the coming week or so. Even after these 2 movies, there are still plenty of Cruise movies left to see. Risky Business, Born on the 4th of July, All the Right Moves, War of the Worlds, Collateral, The Color of Money, and Jack Reacher
Shawn Kildal
2023-06-24 03:44:19 +0000 UTCSome good ones here. I watched Ready Player One at the cinema but felt it was just okay, not as nostalgia-inducing as the trailers seemed. Glad this was a random list with no outright favorite so everything to play for. Great strategy as for once (IMHO) the top three are all absolute stonkers. Minority report was well ahead of its time Cruise has a habit of picking up-and-coming actors as support and this time is Colin Farrell who plays a great foil. . Rain Man is such a great movie. There was a period of time there that Cruise paired up with Hollywood greats like Hackman, Newman and nicholson and this time it with Hoffman and does not disappoint. Memento is the first big pic/hit by those Nolan boys (whatever happened to them eh?), such a clever movie that completely grips your attention from start to finish.. Voted for Memento. But any of the Cruise pics will be good. Happy Birthday Ben!
rakeshldn
2023-06-23 11:33:25 +0000 UTCI don't think you could lose with any of these choices. I searched your video list and could not find a reaction to Rudy. You must have seen that one outside your reaction videos. I have my own copy of Deep Impact and hope to do the full reaction ASAP, maybe tonight.
Roger Wayne Alms
2023-06-22 21:40:09 +0000 UTCEven if Rain Man doesn't win the poll it should be placed on a 'to be watched list,' it is a very good movie.
RandyCC
2023-06-22 21:03:57 +0000 UTCGreat film. Great plot. But agree it's not entirely a "Cassie" film. Still think she'd like it though. Whilst there's some unpleasant parts it's a genuinely emotional movie with real themes.
Hondo the Cat
2023-06-22 18:58:45 +0000 UTCI haven't seen all of the films on here but Minority Report is one of those rare films (I nearly said minority of but caught myself in time) that have a genuinely clever plot. Worth it for that alone.
Hondo the Cat
2023-06-22 18:57:40 +0000 UTCRain Man and Minority Report are literally polar opposites, although both are great.
Paul Deaconu
2023-06-22 12:13:09 +0000 UTCYes I think Cassie meant to say, “Spider-Man Into the Spider-verse” from 2018. And should definitely be seen before “Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse that’s currently in theaters. So I’m casting my vote on here for Spider-man Into the Spider-Verse (2018).
Joe M
2023-06-22 11:34:30 +0000 UTCAnd MINORITY REPORT pulls ahead. Did anybody see that one coming? *rimshot*

_tragicmike
2023-06-22 03:32:38 +0000 UTCWait am I the only one confused by Spiderman Across the Universe (2023)? Is that supposed to be “Across the Spiderverse”?! Did Cassie see “Into the Spiderverse” YET?! Lol. I’d love for her to watch both, but she definitely can’t skip the 1st one!!

Philip G.
2023-06-21 20:27:57 +0000 UTCMemento, easily the best movie on the list.
Zac
2023-06-21 19:43:45 +0000 UTCI don't think minority report will sit well with ya. Rain man is amazing.
Adam Doyle
2023-06-21 19:32:09 +0000 UTCNo. He was playing Tom Cruise. I thought he was better in Minority Report and Jerry Maguire, however in Tropic Thunder he was a legend.
Javier Hernandez
2023-06-21 17:51:25 +0000 UTCShe will love Rain Man and it will move her to tears. Cruise should have gotten an Academy Award for that.
RX2904
2023-06-21 16:18:56 +0000 UTCEven though it looks like Across the Spiderverse won't win, I still highly recommend that you watch it at some point.
Sam Fuller
2023-06-21 15:57:34 +0000 UTCSo many good choices 1. Ready Player One 2. Rainman 3. Minority Report. Two very good Cruise flicks. So much 80s and 90s nostalgia in ready player one.

2023-06-21 08:52:56 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday to your husband Ben! As good of a movie as Rainman is, I just can't stomach Tom Cruise these days, I literally hate him, sorry! Never seen Memento or Minority Report, so I can't say much on those lol! Not to keen on the new Spiderman movie! The Butterfly Effect, that movie is just to much for me to handle, I'm not saying it has bad acting or anything, it's just that its story rips my heart to pieces, that's all I'll say without spoiling anything! Encino Man however, that is a classic, so hilarious, too bad it's not winning lol! Ready Player One, I need to see it lol! Well, depsite it not winning, my vote is Encino Man lol! Once again, Happy Birthday to Ben🎂🥳🎊🎉🍾😁😉👍

2023-06-21 02:48:58 +0000 UTCSame. That would be my nostalgia pick. It’s just a super fun movie with some eventual, surprising Oscar winners we all know and love!
inpham0us
2023-06-21 02:33:45 +0000 UTCIn no particular order: Rain Man Minority Report Encino
Vincent
2023-06-21 02:33:30 +0000 UTCShe's seen Nolan's Batman trilogy and The Prestige. But agree on the rest. Especially Insomnia. Super underrated movie and a great performance by Robin Williams in a dramatic role for him.

Jason Mackey
2023-06-21 01:17:37 +0000 UTCThe movie on this list I am most familiar with, and thus the one I like the most, is Minority Report. I also have a general question for whomever can answer it. Where am I able to make movie suggestions for Cassie? I have what I believe to be a good one.

2023-06-21 01:12:21 +0000 UTCCassie would love Captain Ron. It’s definitely worth a reaction.
Just Plain Bob
2023-06-21 00:50:44 +0000 UTCTo me, Rain Man is a classic and totally holds up — I happened to have rewatched it only about a month ago; brilliant on so many different levels. That said, Memento is so unique in its structure and storytelling, so I think it’d be a blast to watch Cassie’s initial utter confusion, and see when she “gets” it! That said, folks, when I clicked on Memento, it sent me to this page. Did my vote count or is there something else I have to do here? This is only my 2nd day here.
jeff
2023-06-21 00:19:38 +0000 UTCRain Man is a classic which has lots of references in popular culture so you should probably see that but I have a hunch it hasn’t aged particularly well. I think you might actually prefer Minority Report, which isn’t anyone’s greatest work but is a good solid sci-fi thriller with a piecing-it-together kind of plot I know you love. Though I suppose that’s also what Memento has, but it’s overrated IMO; it has a potentially interesting conceit and some good performances but at the end I felt a bit cheated - it’s not as clever as it thinks it is, and if memory serves it’s unnecessarily gruesome. (I can imagine you putting it on the shelf next to The Fifth Element.) I haven’t seen the others but they’re all on my list; I’m particularly interested in Ready Player One….

Cassie
2023-06-20 23:20:00 +0000 UTCYou’ve seen enough movies now that I think you’ll really appreciate all the different references in Ready Player One. It’s not going to win but would make a great reaction with BOTH you and Carly. Just a really fun movie with not a lot of deep thinking involved. No nudity, very little foul language, and decent action and suspense.
Evil Darth Carl
2023-06-20 23:13:19 +0000 UTCVoted Encino Man. It'd be nice for you to watch something other than a big "must see" movie. Second pick for me would probably be Ready Player One then Minority Report.
Greg S.
2023-06-20 23:13:02 +0000 UTCI actually started reading the book after watching the movie, but it slowed down a bit after he beat the first challenge, and I set it aside; and now I'm not sure where it is. 🤷♂️ I did hear that several of the movie changes were not for licensing purposes, but rather because Spielberg's own work was referenced in the book and he didn't want the movie to be accused of being a vanity project.

2023-06-20 23:01:13 +0000 UTCI really liked the movie, but the book is mind blowing! Iv read it 3x and it has many more pop culture references than the movie. The movie had to change ALOT of things because of licensing. To me the movie and the book are two very different tellings of the same story. Check it out :)

2023-06-20 22:57:15 +0000 UTCYes, the movie I wanted to win is winning. I like how it is just a battle of Tom Cruise movies.
Adino1
2023-06-20 22:52:04 +0000 UTCI just voted for the oldest movie and had to chuckle when I then saw that it was in the lead. Rainman has it's issues but it is a solid movie about a broken family from what I remember; it's been a few years since I've seen it.

thomas king
2023-06-20 22:34:44 +0000 UTCAcross The Spider-verse is easily the best film in this poll. Mind-blowingly beautiful animation and brilliant writing/voice-acting. Will it be a movie theater reaction? Or just a wait-until-VOD watch? I only ask because the earliest it might hit streaming is August.
sarCC
2023-06-20 22:33:11 +0000 UTCReady Player One is such a good movie, that in the middle of the film (on Netflix) I ordered the Blu-Ray on Amazon! I was blown away by how great this movie was, especially for those of us who grew up in the 80's (OK, and maybe the late 70's...), and experienced the pop culture with which James Halliday was obsessed and which formed the basis of his contest.
barnabas
2023-06-20 22:32:03 +0000 UTCJoyeux anniversaire. My quicksilver mind somehow immediately went from Ben to Ben Cross to Chariots of Fire (1981), which I would strongly recommend. (Or as a very distant second, First Knight (1995).)

2023-06-20 22:19:23 +0000 UTCTo quote myself: "The Prestige is a strange movie for me. I find it emotionally unlikable, but it is so intellectually beautiful that it is one of my favorites." So yes, I think it's a terrific movie, but I have strong doubts about Cassie liking it. (Which doesn't mean she shouldn't watch it...)
Happy Hanukkah
2023-06-20 22:18:21 +0000 UTCAgree 100%. Memento is one of those films that reminds us of what cinema is capable. BTW, one of the extras on the original dvd was a psych test that, if you answered it correctly, allowed you to watch the film in chronological order. It holds up surprisingly well.

2023-06-20 21:24:28 +0000 UTCI really hope she does this, but you left out what's arguably Nolan's best movie: The Prestige. I do really love Insomnia though and think it's highly underrated, so I was glad to see someone shout that out so strongly.

2023-06-20 21:13:54 +0000 UTCAs a self professed Nolan nerd, Memento is by far the best film on that list. Whether its the narrative, cinematography, editing, hands down. However, if you ever do watch it, you may need a dry erase board and several markers just to follow it.

Johnny
2023-06-20 21:11:24 +0000 UTCMemento all the way! Make sure you do a Christopher Nolan series after James Bond (maybe just skip to NTTD & be done?) Christopher Nolan’s Insomnia staring Al Pacino, Hillary Swank & Robbin Williams is a must watch, before you go Memento, Batman-trilogy, Inception, Interstellar, Tenet and maybe do a 70mm real IMAX with your sister in time for July’s blockbuster Oppenheimer??

John Deardurff
2023-06-20 20:54:37 +0000 UTCAnd Memento is a tremendous film, no doubt, but it's similar to Minority Report in that it's a big big director and ends up on anybody's list after they watch a Nolan film or two.

2023-06-20 20:54:27 +0000 UTCI could give a rat's about Mr Scientology so I voted for The Butterfly Effect. But I guess either tom cruise film will win. Yawn.

2023-06-20 20:46:38 +0000 UTCEncino Man! For the ju-u-ice. That's a fun one
Maria Soberanis
2023-06-20 20:46:19 +0000 UTCI hope Memento doesn’t win. Nothing against Guy Pierce but that movie wasn’t great, and I don’t think Cassie would like it very much, especially given the scene with the drink! 🤢

2023-06-20 20:44:12 +0000 UTCRain Man all day, not even a choice really
Andrew Hogan
2023-06-20 20:43:39 +0000 UTCI'm voting Encino Man just to show it some love, but I adore Butterfly Effect so much. It's important to me on a very personal level. Minority Report is great but it's like, of course you're gonna watch it. It's a big budget Steven Spielberg sci fi flick starring Tom Cruise and based on a classic story by one of the greatest writers that ever lived. I feel like it doesn't need my vote.

Brian McGovern
2023-06-20 20:38:14 +0000 UTCMemento will have your head spinning, great movie though. Minority Report nice one with Tom Cruise/Colin Farrell, Rainman is one of my favorites as well. Those three would be my top choices.

2023-06-20 20:37:16 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday / bonne fete and all that great stuff to young Ben! Also, some great picks there - I had to say yes to Rain Man though.
Ian Hunter (NewbieInOttawa)
2023-06-20 20:35:48 +0000 UTCYou'll have more fun with minority report than rain man. Ppl have to take the actual reaction into account and not just the movie

Cole Jennett
2023-06-20 20:28:51 +0000 UTCYou left Interstellar off on purpose?!? I've been hoping for that one forever, lol :-) But you can't go wrong with Minority Report, Memento, or Rain Man!
TigerDelta
2023-06-20 20:28:35 +0000 UTCSo, Ben likes Rocky, Rudy, Shawshank, Inception, Lord of the Rings… 🤔. “Minority Report” is a sure winner here then. Directed by Steven Spielberg - Tom Cruise, Colin Farrell… (plus Dr. Arizona Robbins from Grey’s? I don’t remember her in the movie but that’s according to IMDB)
Ike
2023-06-20 20:28:33 +0000 UTCThe Butterfly Effect is an incredible ride. You and your sister would adore Rain Man. Both are must see for you all. Happy Birthday to Ben.
Brennan Flora
2023-06-20 20:22:57 +0000 UTCEven if Memento is not the best movie on this list (tho it very well might be) it's the perfect movie for a reaction channel.
Michael Moody
2023-06-20 20:22:32 +0000 UTC‘Encino Man’ means nothing to me…but ‘California Man’ does seeing as that was what it was called in the UK. I’d like you to watch them all, but I think I’m gonna go for Rain Man. This was one the films that gave Hans Zimmer is first Oscar Win!
Biggman83
2023-06-20 20:18:14 +0000 UTCI voted for Encino Man (aka California Man). Can’t believe it’s so low in the poll. It’s a classic 90s comedy starring Brendan Frasier as a caveman. What more could you want!
Luke Godfrey
2023-06-20 20:18:07 +0000 UTCYou're really gonna love Rainman. You should watch that one with Carly. You'll both like it.
Matt Dellarosa
2023-06-20 20:17:48 +0000 UTCI’m tempted to vote for Encino Man! 😉 Happy Birthday Ben!
Robert da Spruce
2023-06-20 20:17:02 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday Ben. Hope its a good one.
James1035
2023-06-20 20:15:16 +0000 UTCReady Player One is a "classic"?
Bill W
2023-06-20 20:14:16 +0000 UTCHappy B-Day Ben! Cassie, I see you still managed to get 2 Tom Cruise flicks on the list. What are you gonna do when you run out of Cruise and Costner? 😀
Bill W
2023-06-20 20:09:30 +0000 UTCAs a bonus, do KISS KISS BANG BANG.
Matt Rose
2023-06-20 20:09:06 +0000 UTCHad to vote for Ready Player One even if you won't get all of the movie/tv/videogame/etc references. You'll get enough to enjoy it, and it's one of the rare cases where I think I like the movie more than the book it's based on.
Patrick Egan
2023-06-20 20:08:11 +0000 UTCWhy do you say that?? A little bit of tomfoolery afoot?? 😂🤪
David Freese
2023-06-20 20:07:05 +0000 UTCSome good ones in there. I opted for MINORITY REPORT as I personally love it AND I think that you'll like that one quite a bit, especially compared to a lot of the other entries.
Matt Rose
2023-06-20 20:06:59 +0000 UTCMy heart was for Encino Man, but will likely swap to Rain Man unless it’s clearly going to win.😊
Cole Jennett
2023-06-20 20:06:53 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday to Ben! Part of me wants Ready Player One because I think Cassie has seen enough and is now ready for it. But with all the action-heavy reactions lately, I think I'll go with Rain Man instead.
Gábor Árki
2023-06-20 20:06:30 +0000 UTCAll good ones. Hoping for a Ready Player One reaction one day for one specific scene, based on one of your other reactions.
Burrito Jimmy
2023-06-20 20:06:11 +0000 UTCDon't tell me Ben's birthday is this Saturday, because that's MY birthday, and seeing as I am ALOT older than him I call dibs on the 24th! Happy Birthday, "Hand Solo"!
Dave
2023-06-20 20:06:00 +0000 UTCI'm sorry you're sick and hope you still enjoy your birthday 🎂. I'm assuming that your in the southern Hemisphere so if so and it's the shortest day for you , enjoy it as much as you can. Praying 🙏 for quick recovery.
David Freese
2023-06-20 20:05:56 +0000 UTCLots of interesting choices. In the mood for Rain Man, so that's my choice.
Pickupthepieces76
2023-06-20 20:05:30 +0000 UTCGreat taste hard to choose but I'll go with minority report

2023-06-20 20:05:18 +0000 UTCHappy birthday to ben👍😎💝
Manuel Villacana
2023-06-20 20:04:56 +0000 UTCDon’t worry! DIE WITH A VENGEANCE is coming next month! 🥳
Alex Villarreal
2023-06-20 20:04:53 +0000 UTCGosh, I love Minority Report, but maybe it’s time for Rainman?
Alex Villarreal
2023-06-20 20:03:57 +0000 UTCSo many great movies here! My heart wants to go with Ready Player One, but I know Cassie will love Rainman sooo much more! Happy birthday Benny Boo Boo (thank Cassie for that one!) you great taste in movies!! 😁🎉
Julie
2023-06-20 20:03:45 +0000 UTCHappy birthday
Neil Varma
2023-06-20 20:03:11 +0000 UTCFirst, Happy Birthday to Ben! Second, two of my not-that-many-requests on the app are in this poll, yay! I chose Rain Man for the poll but I would love to see a Memento reaction as well - mostly cause it gives me an excuse to watch the movie again. Been a few years since I have! Hope you and Ben and the fam have some awesome birthday things planned.
kaiielle
2023-06-20 20:02:33 +0000 UTCMinority Report is an awesome movie! So underrated! Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg make a great team. And the worrying aspects about technology are more relevant now than ever!
Matt Winchester
2023-06-20 20:01:51 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday Brian!! I'm sorry you are sick, I've been there :( Sending you all the get well and cheery vibes, hopefully you can celebrate next week!
Cassie
2023-06-20 20:01:45 +0000 UTCIt's Spider-Man:Across the Spideyverse. Looks like you have a typo there. Other than that you have a lot of good choices. I think you'd enjoy them all. Say Happy birthday to Ben for me. Hope that it's a good one. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
David Freese
2023-06-20 20:01:44 +0000 UTCIgnore the results, the bottom two are classics for different reasons. The Butterfly Effect will confuse and blow your mind at the same time Encino Man just for early Brendan Frasier
David Nesbit
2023-06-20 20:01:37 +0000 UTCStrange to say, my vote is still DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE. 😂 Actually it is RAIN MAN, I would appreciate an actual drama after all the action films lately. But this poll will result in a lot of controversy, my prediction. 🤣
Mike LL
2023-06-20 20:01:30 +0000 UTCAll these are pretty great imo. I can’t decide between Rain Man and Encino Man haha
Wes
2023-06-20 20:00:59 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday Mr. Pib!
Cole Jennett
2023-06-20 20:00:49 +0000 UTCOoh Memento would be a great reaction vid even if you ended up not liking it! But I think you’d like it!
Patrick Gibbs
2023-06-20 20:00:00 +0000 UTCBen a June baby? It is my birthday today. 21st. Not very fair because it is the shortest day of the year, and in typical fashion, I am sick. Happy Birthday, to Ben.
Brian McGovern
2023-06-20 19:59:35 +0000 UTCVoting for "Rain Man" with Cruise & Hoffman. Happy Birthday Ben ! PS: "The Searchers"
Bill Maurer
2023-06-20 19:59:25 +0000 UTCHey Cassie, haven’t you watched Minority Report already? If so, you gotta check out Rain Man (1988).
