Help me pick a movie!
Full disclosure, I've seen all of these films once. Just once, and each viewing was many years ago.
So I figured it'd be good to combine these all in a poll together. Looking forward to seeing what y'all pick!

I am anxiously waiting for the day that you wind up reacting to Fight Club! Love that movie so much. :)
I'm not a big fan of watching someone rewatch a movie, so I appreciate when you are upfront about which movies you have already seen. I know people forget individual scenes when they rewatch, but they still have a really good idea where the film is going, so there are not going to be any big surprises or revelations for them.
You gotta put The Prestige on one of these polls!
Transformers One
Apocalypse Now and Full Metal Jacket deserve more love too.
Black Hawk Down in a war movie poll sometime soon?
The first 20 mins of Inglorious is some of the best film making ever
Alien Romulus in a poll soon? 👀
I wasn’t a fan but I would like to see Nat’s reaction. Would prefer reactions to Prometheus and (especially) Covenant tho tbh.
From this list I would pick Fight Club. A second viewing reveals details missed on the first watch. All movies on this list are worth watching more than once though
i agree totally
Inglourious basterds is absolutely amazing. (This is how you spell it)
Help people, this is my weekly comment. Asking for your support for her to watch SICARIO. THANKS 😊
Does anyone know why she hasn’t been watching tv shows recently?
Yes. She's been traveling a lot this last month, plus it's Natmare season, so she wasn't going to have time to do movies + a new TV series. She plans on doing Arcane S2 in November, if all goes well.
Why something you've already seen before?
With her memory for movies she has seen before, I'm not worried.
Finally get to watch Inglorious! LOL!
There is no wrong answer, but I think Fight Club might be the best answer, as it's not wearing literal military war story dress in the same sense as the other three. I'm most interested in Natalie's second-viewing take on both the film's style and its provocations about our society. I'm also interested in the community's comments, especially from those who've not seen it before.
Why 4 films you've seen before? Another palate cleanser? Between these 4, I'd say, like others have said, Fight Club is the most rewarding 2nd watch, because it really changes how you watch it. They're all good films, though.
I voted for Apocalypse Now, because I think it would make for quite a trippy reaction, but why four rewatches? Have we already run out of films you haven't seen?
tough for me to choose between Fight Club and Ingluorious! both fantastic movies!
Nat should watch the early Sean Penn movie Bad Boys (1983).
I vote Alien Romulus
I don’t even know any of these movies :(
I went with Full Metal Jacket, but I do enjoy all of these selections.
Now, I don't know about y'all, but I sure as hell didn't come down from old Valyria , cross five thousand miles of the Dothraki Sea, fight my way through half of Westeros and jump on top of a fuckin' dragon to teach Cersei lessons in humanity. Cersei ain't got no humanity. She's a Daenerys -hatin', mass murderin' maniac and she needs to be dee-stroyed.
Fight Club is probably the most entertaining of these when you watch it for the second time.
This is a tough one. 🤣 Okay, Fight Club it is. Of all of them, I haven't seen it in a while, my second would be Apocalypse Now.
Been a loooong time since I’ve seen Fight Club so that’s my pick. Full Metal Jacket would be good too but the others I already watched very recently.
All great movies. I think Fight Club will be best for a re-watch purpose. Because you now know the reveal, on a re-watch, it will be a totally different experience.
Read the caption people, she has seen all these already. This is about a rewatch, and the only movie on here that changes dramatically the 2nd time you watch it is Fight Club.
I guess the question is if she remembers why it would be different
I could never vote for Inglorious Bastards, if only because I think you should watch the original first, what a masterpiece that is
The original? Its not a remake, Tarantino just took inspiration from the old ones title for his movies titles.
Inglorious Bastards for me just to see her reaction to Christoph Walz's iconic performance in that film. She's already seen him in Django, but this would be his first foray into Tarantino films.
Not sure if it's on Nat's list but the Rober Downey Jr. Sherlock Holmes movies? I think that would be a great watch and also see how Nat compares it to the show version by the BBC
Agreed
Wow Nat there's a great choice in this poll, I'll be happy to watch any of them. Think I'll vote Inglorious as I've only seen it once.. As always thanks for all the great content.
Inglorious and Fight Club are the better. Full metal jacket and apocalypse now are stale. Should probably check out Once Upon a Time in Hollywood soon. A clever subversion similar to Basterds.
Alright now this is getting serious all such great flick..Apocalypse possibly the only true must watch. But imma lean into my QT bias 😂
I would go with Fight Club, but it's also the one that has the most reduced impact from being a rewatch. It's still a great film though so will still be happy if it wins.
Not really any of these I have a strong desire to rewatch so skipping this poll - Hope everyone else has a blast with this one :D
Happy Wednesday Nat. Have only seen Apocalypse Now out of all of these. Going with Fight Club this time around. Still eager to watch it with you. Have an awesome day 💛
All of these are amazing picks. I'd be happy with any of them.
