Summer Blockbuster Poll: Sci Fi
Added 2022-06-23 03:41:20 +0000 UTCDoh! Typo on Point Break, won't let me edit, sorry to those affected by this..
okie dokie smokies, lets do a poll!
This is the 2nd poll of 3 for summer blockbuster movies I’ve missed over the past 5 decades! These movies were all released during the summertime, and were box office blockbusters of their time. I’m only going to watch the 1 winner of the poll, but most of these movies will probably be on other polls, so don’t be discouraged if the one you want doesn’t win! I’m kind of excited to see almost all of these movies.
I was surprised the last poll didn't have a Horror film winner! But Carly & I really loved Speed, so I am super excited for what wins this poll, and the next one!
In July the final Summer Blockbuster poll will be "Comedy."
You can vote for as many as you choose, the poll will close 6/25/22 at 12am MST

2022-06-29 00:54:02 +0000 UTCDangit! I missed the vote. Fifth Element is such a brilliant movie, I'm sad it lost. I hope some day you watch it.

2022-06-29 00:53:29 +0000 UTCOK. This list is unusual. It's like comparing apples to fountain pens. But it should be interesting.

2022-06-27 03:08:33 +0000 UTCIt hasn't aged well - for me at least.

2022-06-27 03:03:02 +0000 UTCLooking forward to seeing you react to The Fifth Element. Wish I’d checked in here a little sooner, I would’ve cast my vote for District 9.

2022-06-26 21:50:33 +0000 UTCTotally looking forward to a Cassie, (...and hopefully Carly as well), reaction to 'The Fifth Element,' as well as 'Open Range.' both of which I voted for on the request page! 😂🤣😂🤣

2022-06-26 21:22:41 +0000 UTCOk (with all due respect to Tyler)... I'll play your silly game....*thinking of a nice way to put it* "No Sir......I don't like it. I DON'T LIKE IT A LOT!"😂🤣😂🤣

2022-06-26 21:19:32 +0000 UTCYour just somebody who won’t say what they mean
Tyler Warren
2022-06-26 21:10:46 +0000 UTCYeah Cassie! EVERYTHING Intoxikatie just said. You WOULD love it. 🤣😂🙂👍🏻
'Pappy' Johnston
2022-06-26 02:58:44 +0000 UTCI'm sorry and please don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful....and to all you who love it so, you are surely entitled to your opinion, as I am to mine. That said, My mama taught me that if you don't have nothing nice don't say anything at all So I won't tell you what I REALLY think of........ ET. ( I'LL JUST GAG AND ROLL MY EYES A LOT!!!! 🤣😂🤣😂)

2022-06-26 02:56:46 +0000 UTCGood. That would be the theatrical version. I suspect it as much.

2022-06-25 21:51:53 +0000 UTCCassie used Amazon for The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly; which would be the 1h54m version for E.T..
Planner
2022-06-25 21:06:32 +0000 UTCPlease watch the 5th Element at some point. It only lost by 10 votes... it has finished second in multiple polls now. It's a little goofy, but a lot of fun and I feel like you'd really enjoy it.
2022-06-25 18:10:33 +0000 UTCThe people have spoken.
nick bell
2022-06-25 15:33:02 +0000 UTCI hope she still watches the fifth element.

2022-06-25 15:15:26 +0000 UTCYeah, as Gabor said, Spielberg briefly listened to his friend Lucas when he created the "special edition" with the walkie-talkies, but then later regretted and disowned it. Cassie should have no trouble finding the original theatrical version.
Stick Figure Studios
2022-06-25 15:05:31 +0000 UTCThen 5th element would have lost by 9 votes instead of 10,I wanted 5th element..oh well.
Celeste McAllister
2022-06-25 13:31:47 +0000 UTCET gets the voters approval..so be it.
Celeste McAllister
2022-06-25 13:28:52 +0000 UTCAh... that's what's going on! Useful info Gábor , many thanks.
Rich Campbell
2022-06-25 12:26:59 +0000 UTCAlso, I think these runtimes are off (or more likely refer to the PAL sped up version): - The theatrical cut is 1h55m beyond doubt - Managed to find the Director's Cut in PAL DVD rip. That is 1h55m, so converting back to the original 24p version it should be 1h59m
Gábor Árki
2022-06-25 12:12:08 +0000 UTCSpielberg himself acknowledged the error and abandoned the Director's Cut later on. I don't think this version has been released or made available since its DVD release. Afaik all HD and 4K editions featured the unaltered theatrical cut only.
Gábor Árki
2022-06-25 10:41:47 +0000 UTCYeah, I'd go with the theatrical cut if it were up to me. Perhaps Cassie has been given the BluRay with both versions.
Rich Campbell
2022-06-25 09:36:26 +0000 UTCOh Christ, I forgot about the director's cut. We need the handguns.
Carol_White
2022-06-25 09:17:34 +0000 UTCJolly good. I think she'll love it. We'll have to get the "which version is she watching" issue figured out. As far as I know, and according to a useful web source, there are two versions. edit: THESE TIMES MIGHT BE WRONG, Credit to Gábor Árki. Director's Cut: 01:54.59 (including closing credits) Theatrical Version: 01:49.53 (including closing credits) Source: https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=5229907 I don't know which streaming services Cassie uses, or which version is available.
Rich Campbell
2022-06-25 08:50:31 +0000 UTCNoo!! I’m on vacation and didnt have the chance to vote for 5th element
Snöffe
2022-06-25 06:46:46 +0000 UTCI think... It looks like it's really going to happen. Cassie will finally get to watch ET. I am so happy. I've been wanting this since her first live stream event.
