Update and Happy T-Gives!!
Added 2022-11-24 00:03:48 +0000 UTC
Hello friends,
I missed you, between being sick and then going on a little trip to the house of the mouse, I really did miss chatting with you!
Disneyland was exhausting but magical, go check out my instagram for some pics and videos @popcorninbed
I can't believe its Thanksgiving tomorrow!! I feel unprepared, even though I am just in charge of corn and rolls haha. I don't even like Turkey that much, I just love a day dedicated to being cozy, surrounded by family and thinking of everything we have to be grateful for.
Ok so first go vote on the "Catch up Poll" here, and tell me what movies you want to see on the Christmas movie poll next week in the comments!
This week we have the movies pictured above (plus The Best Years of Our Lives I owe you from last week) Can't wait for all of these!
I really am beyond thankful for each one of you, every time I see a patreon notification pop up with a comment or message, I really do get a ping of gratefulness in my heart.
Ok if you are not stateside, I still hope you have a day full of family and gratitude this weekend. If you are in the US, may your gravy be a-plenty and your pies anything but pumpkin ;)
Love you all!
Cassie

2022-11-25 18:37:15 +0000 UTCHappy Thanksgiving, Cassie! I hope you're feeling much better. Always take care of yourself first and foremost. We'll always be here to watch your reactions so no worries. Btw, I just watched the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special and I would highly recommend you do that for a reaction this Christmas (maybe a Cassie/Carly reaction). Good stuff. Very endearing and I'm sure you would enjoy it.

2022-11-25 01:29:54 +0000 UTCAlso, White Christmas is by a great director Cassie has already seen and enjoyed two other films from, Michael Curtiz. He directed both Casablanca and The Adventures of Robin Hood. I echo your enthusiasm for Christmas in Connecticut and The Shop Around the Corner, especially.

2022-11-24 19:11:17 +0000 UTCShe’s seen The Holiday, reacted to Its a Wonderful life last year, and While You Were Sleeping is supposedly on the list for this year!
Cole Jennett
2022-11-24 18:16:08 +0000 UTCCassie has, but she let Carly pick a movie this month, so it will only be a first time viewing for Carly. Pretty sure Cassie only saw it the once, many years ago, so should still be a fun reaction from her too!
Cole Jennett
2022-11-24 18:14:11 +0000 UTCHappy Thanksgiving, and may God bless your whole family and give you success and joy in all you do.

2022-11-24 17:25:11 +0000 UTCI saw Taking Chance is coming up. It is an amazing movie. I can't wait.
Mark James
2022-11-24 16:53:13 +0000 UTCI thought Krampus (2015) was a Christmas horror delight and Black Christmas (1974) is another genre classic. I don’t even like horror that much.

2022-11-24 11:42:31 +0000 UTCAnother good swedish movie is Show me..... Just kidding 😝. F&A is good. A great swedish Christmas movie is "In bed with Santa" aka "Tomten är far till alla barnen" from 1999. A hilarious black comedy, but it's very complicated, and very "swedish" 😊 Alexandra Dahlström (from FÅ/SML) has a role as an outspoken teenage daughter. 🤣🤣😁😁 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Bed_with_Santa

Corey
2022-11-24 09:59:09 +0000 UTCI know it's too late for a Thanksgiving movie suggestion, but I'm throwing this out there anyway because it's one of my all time favorites but rarely hear about it anymore: "Avalon" from 1990, featuring Frodo! (Elijah Wood as a very young and amazing child actor) The story of a multigenerational immigrant Jewish family, it's also about America in the 20th century. Heartwarming, heartbreaking, funny, nostalgic-- a terrific ensemble cast gives you all the feels. And not just a Thanksgiving movie, but the holiday is used as a recurring theme.

2022-11-24 07:51:38 +0000 UTCMust Watch Christmas Movies, every year for myself, that you haven't seen. (Not unlike films you have seen or reacted to, such as, It's a Wonderful Life, While You Were Sleeping, or The Holiday): Bachelor Mother (1939), The Man Who Came to Dinner (1942), The Bishop's Wife (1947), Miracle on 34th Street (1947), Battleground (1949), A Christmas Carol (1951), White Christmas (1954), A Christmas Story (1983), Christmas Vacation (1989) Some Other Favorites that I really try to watch: Remember the Night (1940), The Shop Around the Corner (1940), Meet John Doe (1941), Holiday Inn (1942), Destination Tokyo (1943), Christmas in Connecticut (1945), It Happened on Fifth Avenue (1947), Holiday Affair (1949), Little Women (1949), We're No Angels (1955), Scrooge (1970), Ernest Saves Christmas (1988), Trapped in Paradise (1994), Jingle All the Way (1996), The Family Man (2000) & The Santa Clause 2 minus the North Pole scenes (2002). Happy Thanksgiving to all. Everybody be careful and try not to hurt themselves this year. Overeating can easily happen. Has anyone else thrown their back out from eating too much at Thanksgiving? Or am I the only one?

Larry Darrell
2022-11-24 07:07:33 +0000 UTCIf you haven't seen it then "A Christmas Story" (1983) and "Gremlins"(1984) and for fun how about "Fanny and Alexander" a long, wonderful and completely dramatic Swedish movie from (1982).

2022-11-24 05:06:56 +0000 UTCI hope you enjoy Thanksgiving, Cassie! I can't recall if you've seen Miracle on 34th Street, but that would be my choice for a Christmas movie. I enjoy your classics reactions a lot!
rhaegar
2022-11-24 04:53:39 +0000 UTCI well just reiterate what I said on the poll: a Dark horse Christmas movie but I think you would enjoy (it's even a mystery) is YOUNG SHERLOCK HOLMES.

2022-11-24 03:22:00 +0000 UTCIf she isn't already planning on watching it my vote on a Christmas poll would go to Die Hard 2. Its about a blizzard so it's like it takes place inside a snow globe. You know, one of those snow globes with gun fights and explosions in it... and a snowmobile chase.
Variable38
2022-11-24 03:16:46 +0000 UTCIs The Bridge on the River Kwai on the watch list? I think it won a poll or came in second place.
Grad
2022-11-24 03:00:15 +0000 UTCCassie for Christmas you need to watch White Christmas-it is one of the ‘great granddaddies’ of Christmas movies. I would also suggest adding Meet Me in St Louis, Christmas in Connecticut ( the original), and Shop Around the Corner (this is the movie You’ve got Mail is based on) to the list. But if you watch no other movie this Christmas-it would have to be White Christmas. It is literally a perfect Christmas movie-Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, rosemary Clooney, and Vera-Ellen are all amazing, the songs are all by Irving Berlin, and the costumes are by the great Edith Head. It will have you singing and smiling like a loon for days and may even cause a few happy tears. It’s just not Christmas for my family until Bing, Danny, Rosemary, and Vera sing White Christmas around the tree in a little inn in Vermont!

2022-11-24 01:40:19 +0000 UTCIf we're suggesting Christmas movies, I want to put a word in for "A Christmas Carol" (1951) with Alastair Sim to be put on a list at some point.
Ben Livingstone
2022-11-24 01:40:15 +0000 UTCCassie what great selections this week. Haven’t seen jerry McGuire in years but I still know every line lol nice Veterans Day choice also. I just watched this for the first time a couple months ago and I really liked it. You will for sure enjoy it. I agree with you about the turkey. My grandma use to make a maple cured ham for thanksgiving and it was amazing. Sadly those days are long gone now. I don’t do any pies at all so I can’t answer which is worse. Pumpkin or pecan cause they are both gross to me 🤣🤣 hope everyone has a fantastic thanksgiving and a great week.

2022-11-24 00:57:06 +0000 UTCSince you have opened the door on the great pumpkin pie debate I am going to share my family's favorite holiday dessert. Everyone who has told me they hate pumpkin pie has always still loved this cake. In fact, on Black Friday we always have kind of an open house where friends will take a break from shopping and stop by for coffee and desset and I'll be baking 7 of these through out the next couple of days. It is a really easy dump cake. I hope everyone has a great US Thanksgiving and a nice weekend with loved ones. I know PiB is one of those things I'm thankful for this year! Now, if your in the mood to try something new... PUMPKIN PIE CAKE 4 EGGS, beaten 1 16oz can of PUMPKIN 1 14oz can of EVAPORATED MILK (like Milnot but if you use Eagle Brand, cut out additional sugar) 1-1/2 cups SUGAR 2 teaspoons PUMPKIN PIE SPICE 1 box YELLOW CAKE MIX 1 cup (2 sticks) MARGARINE or BUTTER, melted 1 cup chopped PECANS Mix first five ingredients together with electric mixer. Grease a 9X13 glass baking dish with nonstick spray and pour in pumkin mixture. Sprinkle the whole box of cake mix over top, do not mix it in. Pour the melted butter or margarine over top. Sprinkle pecans on top. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour or until top is light brown. Serve warm. Topped with a dollop of Whipped Cream is how we like it.

2022-11-24 00:46:19 +0000 UTCLove the pictures looks like you had a great time. I’d love to see you watch one or a couple of these if you haven’t already seen them. Trading Places, Jingle All the Way, Gremlins and Deck the Halls. You could watch Krampus (2015) but you might have had enough horror film already lol.
Dean Holt
2022-11-24 00:31:26 +0000 UTCI’m so happy that you’re loving The Queen’s Gambit. It caught me totally by surprise…I mean, who could guess that someone could make a series about *CHESS* so riveting? I love it.

I know you had to have gotten some comments walking around that day. =) I just finished watching the season finale of Andor! OMG it was such an amazing series and I'm so sad it's over (for now)! IMO the 2nd best series Disney has produced outside of The Mandalorian, but maybe some of the best acting and dialogue. PS - I'm geared up to watch Planes, Trains and Automobiles tomorrow. Hope you have time to squeeze it in again at some point too! :)

Have a Merry Christmas!

The 1947 version is marginally higher in the web app than the 1994 version, if that makes any difference) "Arthur Christmas" "Hogfather"

2022-11-24 00:07:39 +0000 UTCHappy Thanksgiving! Stay healthy. For Christmas, my must watch has always been "The Bishops Wife" from 1947. It was later remade as the Preachers Wife, with Denzel Washington and Whitney Houston. Most of the other Christmas films (Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Scrooged, Christmas Vacation) are less traditional.
