FRANCHISE FRIDAYS
Added 2024-12-14 15:00:11 +0000 UTCHi yes helllooo It's time to plan our Fridays in January!
Marvel did win for the past 2 months so I'll give you all a break from that. :)
Movies in January will be to watch HAllobeans' winners and those are:
Count of Monte Cristo (2002), The Client (1994), ANDDDDD one more winner couldn't decide so I'll make another poll soon for you to pick from for that later in the week.
Then the last Monday in January in actually my mom's birthday - I'm going to see if she's like to film something with me, but she is very introverted so don't get your hopes up. I'll at least ask her if she wants to pick a movie for me to watch.
Comments
I do hope Mission Impossible makes it onto another Franchise poll. They're all SO good and I think Ashleigh will love them.

2025-01-06 19:48:18 +0000 UTCWas coming here to suggest this (better late than never) to hopefully get it on her radar. Surprised HG or Pride and Prejudice wasn’t watched for Donald Sutherland’s passing
nycDawn
2024-12-24 00:28:45 +0000 UTCThere is an Alien: Romulus sequel greenlighted and a streaming series coming out. Let’s rock!
Steven Huwig
2024-12-23 23:22:56 +0000 UTCMe too. I know Ashleigh is loving Buffy and really wants to continue it and I am all in for that!
Nocke Devilkyn
2024-12-18 18:50:48 +0000 UTCY'all always have the best suggestions! I love Strictly Ballroom!
Vicious Trollop
2024-12-18 01:37:11 +0000 UTCIt's for free on Roku
Mr Marvelous
2024-12-17 22:22:18 +0000 UTCI'd already voted for Jurassic Park, but it's still in second place. I don't know how many more votes there are going to be at this point.
Steve Quast
2024-12-17 03:57:20 +0000 UTCCan you tell us what's losing to The Boys?
JC
2024-12-17 00:43:01 +0000 UTCShe could do the Baz Luhrmann "Red Curtain Trilogy" -- Strictly Ballroom, Romeo + Juliet, and Moulin Rouge!
Cass&Jason
2024-12-17 00:05:21 +0000 UTCThe Oceans movies are really good too.. I didn't even know there was one with the Rat Pack so I guess I need to find that and watch it. Some say watch it, some say it's not as good as the Clooney ones...
ssb031
2024-12-16 22:48:14 +0000 UTCI LOVE the Jurassic Park movies, so I hope it wins.. but another franchise suggestion.. Harold & Kumar! There's only three! The last one is a Christmas movie, but that wouldn't be bad for January. And they'd be even better if you were "elevated". LOL
ssb031
2024-12-16 22:47:05 +0000 UTCagree 100%!! I would LOVE to see her watch the rest of them!!! It's one of my favorite all-time franchises besides Marvel.
ssb031
2024-12-16 22:42:06 +0000 UTCBummer but Boys is a good alternative I guess.
EJN
2024-12-16 18:51:28 +0000 UTCBuffy not on the poll (will return for Feb poll). Looks like Boys Season 2 gunna win
Michael Tocci
2024-12-16 17:37:22 +0000 UTCShe has seen all 6 movies. I said what said.
Curtis Martin
2024-12-16 11:22:43 +0000 UTCFair point I totally forgot that but it's still a good franchise to see the rest of them
MidNite1869
2024-12-16 06:21:42 +0000 UTCAll good choices. Does anyone know what series won for Wednesdays? I REALLY hope it’s season 3 of Buffy!!
EJN
2024-12-16 05:07:05 +0000 UTCOriginal Jurassic Park is on the channel (in case you haven't seen)
Michael Tocci
2024-12-16 03:58:00 +0000 UTCI implore everybody to vote Jurassic Park. Don't get me wrong ocean's 11 is really good but I want to see her face when she sees how realistic it can look
MidNite1869
2024-12-15 15:57:26 +0000 UTCTo be sure, the Niven/Sellers/Allen/Welles “Casino Royale” was MEANT to be a spoof. Still, IMO it is pretty wretched. To me, the only good thing in it is the song “The Look of Love. Peter Sellers was so intimidated by Orson Welles that he refused to appear in any scenes together. The film did reportedly inspire “Austin Powers.”
Joseph Stevenson
2024-12-15 14:24:28 +0000 UTCStart with the 60s Ocean's 11
Mr Marvelous
2024-12-15 12:43:12 +0000 UTCOk if we're watching The Count of Monte Cristo this year, PLEASE lets get V for Vendetta on the channel finally
JC
2024-12-15 09:07:25 +0000 UTCFinish Star Wars please
Stephanie Chapman
2024-12-15 07:19:51 +0000 UTCSame here. If it was a reasonable amount, it would be great to watch them and not see the constant whinging.
Andy H.
2024-12-15 05:33:37 +0000 UTCShe's watching them in order and is already well into the Bond series. She's watched all of Connery and the one Lazenby, and is now into the Roger Moore movies.
Andy H.
2024-12-15 05:27:32 +0000 UTCShe's in the middle of two straight months of Marvel. After this month, how many more movies even are there? 3 or 4? And maybe 1/2 dozen shows. Relax Sparky, she'll get to them.
Kenton Kruger
2024-12-15 03:49:09 +0000 UTCYou going to take regular reaction requests? Is that what Monday’s are? MCU is the best to get through cuz it pays off. These others don’t really. Maybe they do to others. Idk but I’m really trying to continue Buffy and get to Deadpool and Wolverine.
Jaren
2024-12-15 03:16:00 +0000 UTCMCU.
Jaren
2024-12-15 03:11:40 +0000 UTCDeadpool and Wolverine is good. Better than other franchises.
Jaren
2024-12-15 03:10:59 +0000 UTCCasino Royale is funny, it's supposed to be a spoof and not take itself seriously!
Meredith Shivers
2024-12-15 03:04:33 +0000 UTCWell, she already saw The Matrix and the rest are crap, so there is that...
Kenton Kruger
2024-12-15 02:55:45 +0000 UTCYou are never going to get through Marvel at this rate..
Robert Miller
2024-12-15 02:52:38 +0000 UTCI'll take the worst MCU movies over most of the Bond movies though.
Joe Blankenship
2024-12-15 02:20:56 +0000 UTCWow. That's entirely unnecessary.
Cass&Jason
2024-12-15 01:13:52 +0000 UTCIf Oceans is gonna win, I hope we can skip the original one. This is one where the remake is vastly better than the original.
Joe Blankenship
2024-12-15 00:31:29 +0000 UTCShe needs to check out the Clerks: Animated Series. It's only 6 episodes. Could knock that out in one sitting.
Joe Blankenship
2024-12-15 00:26:02 +0000 UTC...and I will continue to 'whine'. They (and DC by proxy) are just...generally...not good.
Michael Parker
2024-12-15 00:08:09 +0000 UTCYep!
Michael Parker
2024-12-15 00:06:51 +0000 UTCtell me your a 90s kid without telling me your a 90s kid
Michael Parker
2024-12-15 00:05:06 +0000 UTCA good choice where I don’t really mind what wins. Am also loving Buffy and would like to put in a shout out for a reaction to Bugsy Malone
Alijammy
2024-12-14 23:24:40 +0000 UTCBond is huge. Start small. The oceans movies should end with Oceans 8 as well.
Alyssa Cartwright
2024-12-14 23:16:44 +0000 UTCMoore: The Spy who Loved Me. Dalton: Licence to Kill Brosnan: GoldenEye Craig: Tomorrow Never Dies
Joseph Stevenson
2024-12-14 22:42:33 +0000 UTCHere comes a list of James Bond movies, one for each actor who played the role in a movie, excluding the non-Broccoli Casino Royal, which had David Niven and Woody Allen, and Peter Sellers as Bond. It is a wretched movie. Since you do not watch Vertigo (ranked as the best movie ever by Sight and Sound), you may as well play one of the very worst. Anyway, here is a list of Bond films by lead actor: Connery (From Russia with Love, which is overall the best one as an espionage thriller) or Goldfinger ( the epitome of the Bond action film). (Also it has a few of my coworkers in it at Ft Knox) Lazenby: On Her Majesty’s Secret Service ( his only portrayal, quite good plus has the very best “Bond girl” (Diana Rigg)
Joseph Stevenson
2024-12-14 22:30:25 +0000 UTCSo much thought control. You're calling THEM cynical?
YodatheHobbit
2024-12-14 21:34:27 +0000 UTCLovely choices all. I look forward to any of them.
David Billings
2024-12-14 21:01:18 +0000 UTCGood point.
Lynette Cummins
2024-12-14 20:31:04 +0000 UTCIf nothing else Ocean’s is a short franchise. She can knock that out in a month and start a new one.
Scott Ikemire
2024-12-14 20:02:27 +0000 UTCHey Ashleigh how about an Aussie flick?
Chris
2024-12-14 19:28:44 +0000 UTCIt's lost several polls in a row. Ashleigh would love Daniel Craig but there are 11 in front of him. I'm bummed about it.
Lynette Cummins
2024-12-14 19:11:23 +0000 UTCI continue to push for Rocky/Creed
Omar Anzaldua
2024-12-14 19:02:36 +0000 UTCI'm sad that James Bond is losing once again. I know she would really like them when she gets to Pierce Brosnan. I also really like Mission Impossible, but it's doing worse. Ugh. Ocean's 11 is good, the rest are just ok. We'll see if Ashleigh likes them since it's gonna win.
Lynette Cummins
2024-12-14 19:01:57 +0000 UTCWhat's your next TV show when you finish Buffy Season Two? I'd love to see you watching The Good Place.
Steve Friedman
2024-12-14 18:51:35 +0000 UTCAgreed. The original Rat Pack version was more of a variety show showcase than a movie. I see the franchise as starting with the Clooney version.
Steve Friedman
2024-12-14 18:50:41 +0000 UTCThe only good Jusassic Park movie was the first one. The only good Matrix movie was the first one. The only good Alien movies were the first two. I feel like these should be removed from franchise polls. She's already seen the good ones, and the rest are cynical cash grabs that will just disappoint her.
Steve Friedman
2024-12-14 18:42:17 +0000 UTCAll great but I think you would get a kick out of the oceans movie (the first 3) and don't bother with the original (1960
Adam Doyle
2024-12-14 17:45:54 +0000 UTCWhen did View Askew get removed from all these?!?! :)
Travis Underwood
2024-12-14 17:31:13 +0000 UTCThe first Jurassic Park is already on the channel, this would be to continue the franchise
JC
2024-12-14 17:29:36 +0000 UTChonestly, if Ashleigh wanted to just watch all the Marvel content she wants and put it on another tier, I'd happily pay for a higher tier if it meant I didn't have to see people whining about it every time
JC
2024-12-14 17:24:58 +0000 UTCI agree!
Ian Cano
2024-12-14 17:09:33 +0000 UTCVery excited for "The Count of Monte Cristo"! One of my favourite movies. Quite honestly every one of those options should be on your to watch list!
Suzel Saraiva
2024-12-14 17:05:06 +0000 UTCPutting in an early suggestion for Valentine's Day - Roman Holiday.
Cindy Byrne
2024-12-14 17:03:45 +0000 UTCPlease finish the Bond franchise!
Richard Stegman Jr.
2024-12-14 16:51:47 +0000 UTCSUBMITTING “BAND OF BROTHERS” FOR A FRANCHISE SUGGESTION, AS USUAL, HAHA. LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THE UPCOMING EPISODES!
jonny miller
2024-12-14 16:49:47 +0000 UTCI would LOVE to see Ashleigh’s reaction to Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park. 🔥
Liz Zero
2024-12-14 16:46:46 +0000 UTCShe’s going to LOVE the “Ocean’s” movies but she neeeeds to watch Jurassic Park.
Liz Zero
2024-12-14 16:45:35 +0000 UTCOMG so excited for Count of Monte Cristo, one of my all time faves. Hope you love it, Ashleigh!
Tara
2024-12-14 16:43:18 +0000 UTCI would've voted for Marvel again. But there's always that handful of people that have to complain about it.
Joe Blankenship
2024-12-14 16:38:05 +0000 UTCAlthough I would love a return to James Bond, my vote has to go to the Oceans movies. They are just so good & so fun to watch. I think it would be a great start to 2025!
Vicious Trollop
2024-12-14 16:30:41 +0000 UTCTrain To Busan. . . . WHEN ?
PieHard13
2024-12-14 16:30:35 +0000 UTCThe ocean movies? Really? Over the matrix? Jesus you're a bunch of morons
Kristopher Long
2024-12-14 16:28:13 +0000 UTCI would love for her to eventually check out The Room, but I would like her to do it as a crossover with someone who has already seen it to help her out
James
2024-12-14 16:20:15 +0000 UTCAs there are five Fridays this January you could do all five Ocean movies: Ocean's Eleven original; Ocean's Eleven remake; Ocean's Twelve; Ocean's Thirteen; Ocean's 8.
Elliot Nesterman
2024-12-14 15:54:22 +0000 UTCOh I know
Brittany Winter
2024-12-14 15:44:15 +0000 UTCShe has reacted to Overboard
Michael Tocci
2024-12-14 15:43:53 +0000 UTCI totally agree overboard I grew up on
Brittany Winter
2024-12-14 15:38:51 +0000 UTCAgatha was really good.
Echo Moon
2024-12-14 15:38:39 +0000 UTCIf so she totally needs to do a Kurt Russell poll with a list of his films like: Overboard (1987), Soldier (1998), Breakdown (1997), Miracle (2004) etc.
Echo Moon
2024-12-14 15:37:39 +0000 UTCAlien I'll always choose. But why not do like a actors Franchise, like pick a actor who's done many sequels to the og film they did?
Brittany Winter
2024-12-14 15:32:57 +0000 UTCThough I did vote for Oceans here, I would like to say there's a reason Marvel won the last two months. You're so close to catching up on all the MCU stuff and there are some gems with Ms Marvel, Agatha All Along, etc.
Philip De Leon
2024-12-14 15:24:33 +0000 UTCWill you be including the original 1960 Ocean's Eleven movie with Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr.?
Michael Buhl
2024-12-14 15:20:02 +0000 UTCAll great choices, woo!
RationallySassy
2024-12-14 15:13:14 +0000 UTCI'd really like to get Harold and Maude, sometime around Valentine's Day!! ❤

ROBERT T PODLASKI
2024-12-14 15:09:26 +0000 UTCThe Oceans films are the most fun of what's on the poll so that is where my vote lies!
Cosmic Slice
2024-12-14 15:09:15 +0000 UTCNo rocky on the list?
