FIRST TIME WATCHING: The Love Hypothesis

I'm almost certainly in the minority here, but I'd much rather watch you react to (good) romcoms or even bad romcoms (if you're drinking 😂) than endless MCU franchise slop, or horror movies, or honestly a lot of stuff. 🫡

I enjoyed watching this along with you. It was a bit of a departure from your usual fare, but a good one, I think.

If you enjoy this type of genre or romance with a female protagonist who's also a scientist, I highly recommend you check out the book Lessons in Chemistry! I loved the book, and there's an Apple TV show that's an adaptation of the book. Might be worth checking out!

Hey Nat i just watched Love Hypothesis with you. and it was funnn! You can stick to your usual routine, it would be wonderful to explore a romance / love story like this every now and then when the mood strikes. Lots of people prefer stimulating geres including myself, Not gonna lie, this pick was nice and fresh surprise to me. but this is just me, i hope everyone satisfied Everything is balance and Balance is everything :)

Hey Natalie this is not the kind of movie I usually watch but because you reacted to it I watched it and I enjoyed it of course watching it with you helped me enjoy it even more so yes absolutely if you want to watch more movies like this I'll be happy to watch them with you!! until next time take care.

I liked this a lot! Would never have watched otherwise and i'm here for it - and for more such material. My advice to anyone who cares to ask for it, is watch the movie first and then read the book. I have found that I have a much better experience that way. Not absolutely every time but definitely more than a baseline percentage.

I would love to see you do some variations of this in the future. I think Bollywood movies would fit your wheelhouse too (the 2001-2009 range especially had some of the best films release from there, especially films like LAGAAN (2001), SWADES (2004), 3 IDIOTS (2009), GURU (2007), TAARE ZAMEEN PAR (2007), OM SHANTI OM (2007) etc.). LAGAAN (which was Oscar nominated) deserves to be ranked among cinema classics like LOTR, LAWRENCE OF ARABIA etc. IMO.

I'm sure you've got recommended this before but I'd love for you watch Amazon's 'Off Campus'. It's arguably the one of the biggest shows of 2026. Lots of reactors have reacted it to it.

Hi Nat, I found it fun to watch a different type of film with you, I think its important to watch a variation of genre's and I think you selecting a film without doing a poll every so often is a great idea as most votes are predictable and I think a Nat's choice will be fun.

Nat, considering you read the book beforehand, were you aware going in that the book was originally Star Wars fan fiction between Rey and Kylo, and that the names and SW references were changed when the book was finally published? I just found the context around the book even more fascinating than the story itself, especially with the movie casting Tom Bateman (Daisy Ridley's real-life husband) in the Adam role.

Happy Feature Friday Nat. I read the premise for this and you've got me intrigued to watch it and see how it all turns out 😊 hehe this was really enjoyable Nat. Loved the performances and the humour was so fun. I suppose the ending kind of typical of these types of stories. Very different story, but the ending reminded me a lot of Legally Blonde, where she gets where she wants to be on her own merit, but is then forced into an harassing situation to be able to progress in her career. They always have the feel good ending though 😊 Thanks for an awesome watch along today Nat 😊
