I don't think it necessary to name every movie ever made calm down a little bit
Something Alfred Hitchcock like Rear Window or Rope
Disney animated movies or Terminator/Transformers franchise. Both Willy Wonka movies if you haven't already
From Paris with love (damn i am so sad that always the same movies win in polls come on guys be creative there are so many masterworks out there)
The Raid
The American Pie franchise
Iron Sky
The hunger game series
Star Wars or lord of the rings
Hunger Games for sure
Hunger games? I think you mentioned not seeing those before! 😍
Queens gambit- it’s a short limited series and it’s so underrated!! Especially with your love of Chess!!! Please consider it 🙏🏼😁
Grumpy Old Men
Office Space
I Would love to see you react to the pink Floyd “the wall” movie, mixing both music reactions and movie reactions!
V for Vendetta Falling Down Starship Troopers Dredd (2012 with Karl Urban) Sin City Dark City They Live Gattica Donnie Darko Mars Attacks Galaxy Quest Bernie (2012) Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb Brazil Iron Giant Clockwork Orange Office Space It Follows The Silence of the Lambs The Fugitive Seven The Usual Suspects Gone Girl Funny Games Misery Dead Poets Society The Witch (2015) Any Mel Brooks movie is Gold. Spaceballs Blazing Saddles Young Frankenstein The Producers History of the World: Part 1 If you are into "B" movies just for fun: Aaah! Zombies is low budget but a fun watch.
He’s taking suggestions with the most likes so listing more than one defeats the purpose, just saying
1917! It's amazing!
Cpl my favourite films Lost Boys and The Crow. As its my birthday 28th
How about "Clerks" to kick off Kevin Smith's View Askew-niverse? I think Alex would enjoy the humor 😜
No Country For Old Men
Ford V Ferrari
The 3 movies that are connected.. Unbreakable/Split/Glass if you wanna see just 1 of them I would highly Recommend SPLIT.
Us
Smile
Bridge to teribethia
Hereditary
Supernatural! For my birthday
Apocalypto(Mel gibson movie)
So many great choices. Here we go: we will eventually be all caught up on marvel (unless we start venturing into x-men/fantastic 4, etc.). So let’s finish up series we have already begun….Alien, Die Hard, It, Men in Black. Also, I would eventually love to see a reaction for Avatar: The Way of Water…. But you should really see that in the theater, preferably IMAX 3D if available.
Finish the serries Men in black 2-3-4. Alien -2-3-4-prometheus-covenant than go for Predator. Die hard also
Hook from 1991, starring Robin Williams
RRR!!!
Maybe go down a Denzel rabbit hole.. So many amazing films with him. The Equilizer films, Training Day, American Gangster, Glory, Safehouse, Deja Vu, Inside man, Man on Fire, Remember the Titans, to many to name..
Denzel's films are a treasure trove! Not many bad ones in the bunch. :) If he goes that route I"ll be stoked. Training Day and Man on Fire are my top picks - but I'd be down for any of them.
Sicario
Hell or high water
Intouchables (French comedy movie), Yamakasi (French Parcour movie), The RAID -Redemption- (Indonesian Action movie)
It's also been a while since I have hurt myself laughing at watching you react to a horror, so putting Paranormal Activity out there
How about the Bad Boys movies, or go back a generation first and do the Lethal Weapon films
The 10th Kingdom
“Cinderella Man” - Russell Crowe & Renee Zellweger & Paul Giamatti
Maybe do movies that are like a series, ie. Lethal Weapons, Mission Impossibles, Bad Boys, Equalizers, Bournes.

THE RAID aka The raid -Redemption- it's an Indonesian movie. If this doesn't get votes than your members don't know what good movies are.
Land Before Time!!
Seven Psychopaths! It has the perfect blend of action and comedy, and an all-star cast!
Upgrade, Apocalypto, Lord of the Rings, The Usual Suspects, Paul, Die hard with a Vengeance.
Get into other type series of movies like Lethal Weapons, Mission Impossibles, Bad Boys, Bournes, etc.
How about throw caution to the wind and watch Encino Man
Sneakers (1992). Very fun and exciting to watch with a great cast.
Baby Driver! It has a really great soundtrack and it fits the movie well, there’s even lyric easter eggs
Pearl Harbor….. since he’s in Hawaii now
Ew. haha
Conspiracy Theory
Tin Cup
3000 Miles to Graceland

What Dreams May Come Clerks Sucker Punch The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
Aliens….. he’s seen the first one and this is way better so let’s get it on the poll!!
I dont know about way better, the first Alien is like a perfect horror film and Aliens is a great action flick.
I will cash app you 100 bucks if you react to hereditary or Supernatural. I want to see you either scared or invested. I know Supernatural is 15 seasons but please 🙏 for my birthday
The Hunt for Red October
Sneakers
The Prestige
One of my faves! Keeps you guessing. Crazy good cast
The Crow - starring Brandon Lee (Bruce Lee's son), who died during production.
Young Guns 1 and 2 (hear they are working on a 3)
The Machinist (with Christian Bale)
Such a great film, and hardly anyone I know has even heard of it, let alone seen it.
Clue the movie 🕵️♀️
Fight Club
I am Sam
Long Kiss Goodnight
Oh, Zodiac! It’s David Fincher, it’s so good
I'll recommend this one, too! It's also very good!
Wanted
Goonies
Oceans 11-13 mission impossible or fast and furious
watching you watch Daredevil... you should watch Idle Hands with the actor that plays Foggy, Elden Henson. It's Horror Comedy. It's NOT award winning but it's fun. Or if you really want to go old school with his acting check out The Mighty Ducks 1 thru 3 (Disney).
Holy shit I never realized that was him! Crazy
Indiana Jones
The Game
Ooooh, good one! Great thriller. Underrated.
The Hangover
Bad boys 1 and 2
I’d love to see some rom com commentary. Moonstruck is a fun film and has a super young Nicolas Cage and Cher!
It’s been said already but just to get a better chance at entry, “Warrior” with Tom Hardy and Nick Nolte is a must watch! Amazing story and acting!
Definitely the STARWARS MOVIES. And please watch in release order if it wins. 😁👍🥰🤩
Dune (2021)
Sicario
Arrival, by Denis Villeneuve, with Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner.
I second this
Pan's Labyrinth
Christopher Nolan films: Memento, Prestige, Inception, Interatellar, and Tenet to name a few.
Another good movie if you like stuff like John Wick, would be "Equalizer" with Denzel Washington, which also gets a 3rd Movie this year.
Tremors
Get Out, Us, and Nope
Another Great movie is "Falling Down" which seems to become more and more relevant with the years going by.
Knives Out, and Glass Onion
The crow
Omg YES 🙌
Interstellar! Please.
He’s done Interstellar already
ALSO, I seem to remember a while back you mentioning you hadn't seen very many Denzel Washington movies--so in that case, if you want a fun, straightforward action movie that is actually based on/inspired by the true story of the runaway freight train CSX 8888, you should watch Unstoppable (2010--wait, that movie is THIRTEEN YEARS OLD NOW?!).
Independence Day
Paul
Annabelle
If you want a recommendation of a slightly older movie that still holds up well, I can't recommend Tremors enough! :)
I should also mention, in the interest of disclosure, that I will always recommend this movie because I'm a bit biased for it--I wrote a research/thesis paper on it for a film course I took in my undergrad lol.
Indiana Jones
I’d love to see you start the Star Wars journey Alex!! Ever since I heard you say you’ve never seen any Star Wars I’ve wanted to see that journey begin! There’s a lot though (over a dozen movies and several shows which over many seasons) I know it’s alot but it’s so worth it!! I know a lot of people watch Star Wars reactions too so it should help grow your channel! If not that then I’d recommend some sort of comedy like…. Old School, Wedding Crashers, Step Brothers, etc. don’t know what you haven’t seen yet. Thanks, can’t wait for what’s next!
Django unchained plsssss ♥️
Focus
Harry Potter
Upgrade, Apocalypto, Lord of the Rings, The Usual Suspects.
The Neverending Story
STAR WARS
I also just joined Patreon a day ago, and I am excited to support your channel Alex. Watching your reactions has put a kick in my gooch's step!
If you like Buddy cop films, the Lethal Weapon series is one of the best, if not THE best (and all 4 are solid, SOLID, films). If you like comedies, one that most reactors tend to overlook is Dutch, with Ed O'Neil. If you like JK Simmons and want a movie that's a lot deeper that it looks at face value, Whiplash is a winner. The Karate Kid trilogy is also one of my personal favorite series, as is Ghostbusters, Jaws, and Gremlins. Not sure if you've seen those, but if you haven't, those HAVE to be on the poll.
Dumb and dumber it’s my favourite Jim Carry film
The last of us
Hacksaw Ridge
Shaun of the Dead.
GONE GIRL
Number 23
Joker
Baby Driver. The way music is used is fantastic!
Man you still need to see Joker, it’s one of the best movies of the 21st century for sure
Kingsman: The secret service
The Matrix!
Yo I REALLY want to see whiplash. Amazing movie if you're a musician, about the mental toll of excellence. Also "the score", "limitless" i haven't seen reactors do those movies yet, both amazing
I second this, Whiplash would be really good, since Alex also does music reactions. It feels like a must for him Limitless is also really good
Want a good comedy just to change it up then watch Jexi !!! Hilarious!!!
The Sixth Sense
The invisible Man
The Usual Suspects
True Detective season 1 is my favourite season of television ever and it’s pretty short and sweet the later ones aren’t as good but are worth giving a shot
Braveheart
Warrior
Yes absolutely!! One of my favorite movies for sure
Alita Battle Angel!!!
Gattaca
The Gentlemen!
