Upda-tea
Hey guys-can May be over now? I can't believe the last week of school lined up with wedding week but I just feel so immediately behind and out of control haha. It's all good stuff, just a lot! I know come summer though I am going to be craving routine and a to-do list! My parents and brother and sister have arrived and it is so fun to all be together-- the best part of weddings-and the forever love of course! bI just have to write a poem/speech, choreograph a cousin dance, make a slideshow of their lives and yes, still find a dress haha Don't worry we have 2 days!
This week we already had TLOU and A Monster Calls which had a switcharoo with Bridesmaids last week. We will be back to regular scheduled programming next week! This week on YT we have already had TLOU and 12 Monkeys and MAD Max will be the other YT for the week!
Ok guys-it is about to be pollmania. It took an above average amount of energy to sort and categorize and narrow down all the "based on true stories" suggestions. Kind of didn't realize how many movies are based on a true story haha. We are going to have 4 separate polls and really turn this into a thing!
Coming up soon besides Kingdom and the poll winners will be the 2nd Mad Max and the Sum of all Fears!
Ok guys back to the fam damily, thank you for being patient with me this month! I love the socks off of you!

Fun true-story polls! Another idea for this summer: it’s the 50th anniversary of JAWS, so maybe you and Carly should honor that with a reaction to JAWS 2 - very underrated movie.
"I know come summer though I am going to be craving routine and a to-do list!" Here's your to-do list, Cassie: Buy or make french fries. Buy or make cheese curds. Prepare a thin gravy, with beef or chicken stock, flour, butter, and seasonings. Mix the hot fries and room-temperature cheese curds, and pour the hot gravy over them. Oh. ... "Routine." ... Never mind.
That sounds just awful !!!!
You should watch this. Very funny. 9 minutes of Joel and Ellie quibbling. https://youtu.be/z-NF5RVdDJY?si=04_Blmzj4cO8N2Jt
I'm hoping Cassie will do a new Pollception every month.
You really are fuddled at the moment, aren't you, Cassie, cos you've done it again. The upcoming Last of Us episode should be 7, not 6, and the one coming to YT this week is Season TWO episode 6, not Season 3. Oh, and Sum of All Fears should be spelt "Every Which Way But Loose". 😁
You (literally) knew what she meant.
Is "The Sum of All Fears", a PPoTM? Might as well make it an Affleck double-header and throw in "The Accountant".
Did the Accountant sequel ever come out? Feel like I heard of it being greenlit a while ago.
Congratulations to Carly! I hope she has a perfect day!
My other fave "true event" movie: The Sacrament from Ti West. and Henry Portrait of a serial killer.
Henry is a great film, one that is unfortunately unlikely to ever be allowed on a poll.
Cassie- I wonder which song is more popular in the house this week- School is Out (no more pencils, no more books, no more teachers dirty looks), or Chapel of Love (todays the day we’ll say I do, and we will never be lonely anymore). I hope you have a great time with your family at the wedding!
I say School’s out by Alice Cooper and True by Spandau Ballet.
Cassie - you should let your children pick out a dress for you. No way that could go wrong! ;-)
Who are those little non-subscribers to pick the dress? Cassie should find 8 dresses she likes, put them on a poll and then we can decide.
It is noticed when you take a break, you are missed
Don’t suppose any chance of double jeopardy showing on YouTube, thought I would take a shot and ask
I find it hard to believe it won't be, Lisa. Keeping Matter of Life and Death as Patreon only was a very rare decision, and mainly due to low YT views for obscure classics. Double Jeopardy is far from that, so it's more likely copyright issues that are holding up the release.
I'm hoping Carly's fiance is called Joe. Then she could have her exes come in and do a rousing rendition of "If it hadn't bin for Cotton Eyed Joe, I'd been married a long time ago!"
How have you not found a dress yet?!
There are a lot of dresses out there that she hasn’t seen yet. She needs to see them all before she can make a decision ;-)
2 days left and you haven't found your dress? My wife would be a gibbering wreck. I'm sure you'll be fine, although I do strongly recommend you set up your Popcorn to Go equipment in a corner somewhere so you and Carly can keep running over and giving us updates. Maybe Ben can strap a GoPro to his head so we can get a YT edit. Have a great time anyway. You deserve a happy event to take your mind off all the mental Mom stuff.
Good luck with everything. You are the Cassie-est Cassie in the whole world, and we love you for it.
Also, Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning is out now! Tom Cruise’s (seemingly) last mission as Ethan Hunt!
Putting in my early request for either "Gettysburg" or "1776" for the 4th of July. They also work as true events. The original "Father of the Bride" (1950) with Spencer Tracy and Elizabeth Taylor for Carly's one year anniversary as I slept on it this year. I know she already saw the Steve Martin remake.
I second 1776. I love it. My annual independence Day tradition is watching that movie. I've been pushing for reaction for it for a long time.
Dirty Harry? Great franchise Fever are going to win! They won! The next time the Fever play the Sky we will be there. We both think you are too sweet and innocent for the Scream Franchise. We are going to see the Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning tomorrow night. Lilo and Stich on Saturday. See you on Tuesday have a fabulous wedding weekend.
Fever Pitch (1997) is the greatest LOVE Story ever. "I Said What I Said” — Cassie
Still looking for a dress? I assumed your were the matron of honor. Hope the entire family has the best time being all together for the special time and ultimately the big day. I'm not sure any wedding is perfect so hopefully everyone enjoys every moment come what may. Happy Memorial Day to everyone and especially those that serve or once served. Thoughts to all the families as well.
Great news that you’re watching The Road Warrior, Cassie. The only thing that would make it even better would be if you were watching Horror of Dracula too!
Love the gloves off ya! 🤪
Have a wonderful time at Carly’s wedding! Soak it all in and enjoy yourself! And happy early Memorial’s Day as well! Keep up the good work Captain! 🫡
Yikes!! I can’t believe it’s already here…Carly’s Big Day!! It sounds like you’ve got a lot on your plate getting ready for the big bash. Any time someone mentions a wedding to me, the part time DJ in me comes out. So I thought I’d offer up some romantic songs that I get asked to play when I’m DJing a wedding or an anniversary party. I’m not suggesting them as Carly and her fiancé’s potential wedding song (I’m sure that’s been in place for awhile now), but just some heartwarming songs that can be suggested to her DJ to get the couples on the floor for some slow dances. Unforgettabe - Natalie Cole and Nat King Cole Endless Love - Lionel Richie and Diana Ross Can’t Help Falling in Love - Elvis Presley From This Moment - Shania Twain Just the Way You Are - Billy Joel Making Memories Of Us - Keith Urban Never My Love - The Association Perfect - Ed Sheeran And I Love Her - The Beatles Saving All My Love - Whitney Houston I’ll Never Not Love You - Michael Buble The Way You Look Tonight - Frank Sinatra Have I Told You Lately - Rod Stewart I Just Want To Dance With You - George Strait I hope the wedding goes smoothly, the food is delicious, and Carly is swept away by the celebration of her special day. And please…don’t stress out too much, have fun, and just let loose. Congrats to Carly and Mr. Carly! 🎉🥂
+1 for Just the Way You Are - Billy Joel
The 4 polls for movies "based on true stories" is exciting. I am curious about A Monster Calls, which I've never seen. Your LoU S2E6 reaction is great. Glad for all the good family stuff -- you will juggle.
A MONSTER CALLS is a gem.
Sounds stressful, to be honest. Hope you remember to relax and have a good time, if you're able to. Looking forward to the True Events Poll. Not sure if you know but I think Pollception was your most commented on post ever on Patreon with 764 comments. Happy summer Cassie, Carly and Kernels!
For real?
Road Warrior (1981)… Sweeeet!!! Fam Damily?? I love doing that with words. Never thought of that one before. Stealing it. ;-)
We used say that back in high school - “You and your whole Fam Damily!”
Congrats to Carly and the whole PiB cob (fam damily) too but hey, I need my socks. Will there be any popcorn in the bouquets of flowers. I hope so!
Congratulations to your sister Carly’s Wedding!! I hope she lives happy her whole life. And I hope your son is now better and healthy Cassie.
I know the schedule is packed just wanted to toss in my vote for Andor. Rewatched the Rogue One reaction and I’m sure you would enjoy it.
+1 for Andor
Best wishes to the happy couple and your family. Hope all goes well.
Congratulations to the family finishing school and to Carly, Congratulations on Love and long life together.
I hope your son is doing much better, and I am sure you will find the perfect dress1
Road Warrior.. excellent news
Agree. Really looking forward to that reaction.
Congrats to Carly, send her my love and support as a fan and friend lol! Four polls on movies based on a true story, that's crazy, I hope a few of my suggestions make it on one of those polls lol! I hope you're doing well Cassie and I hope your son is getting better, I haven't sent my Mother's Day gift to you yet because I to have been going through some difficult problems at work and it's just been draining me, ugh lol! Tomorrow for sure I'm heading for the post office to find a box big enough lol! On a plus side of things, I've watched your "Batman Returns" reaction 4 times up to this point, just can't get enough of it lol 😂 Can't wait for "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes"! Love and support to you and Carly, you both are the best, and God bless y'all and the family 🥰😇🙏😁🤗😉👍✌️🌹
Ahh, “The Sum of All Fears”, where the filmmakers take a HUGE step down from Alec Baldwin and Harrison Ford (who previously played the lead role of Jack Ryan) and we have to settle for Ben Affleck in the role. Need I say it: the book is waaaaaaaay better. They really dumbed it down for the movie (presumably so Affleck would understand the screenplay) and the result is a movie that’s a shadow of its predecessors.
I must have watched a different movie. I thought it was far better than the Harrison Ford movies, much as I love Harrison Ford. To each their own, but I think it was excellent.
Awww. Hoping the best for all, including the wonderful husband and wife. ❤️
Not to worry. As long as you're enjoying the wonderful events of your life routine or not will make anyone's day. That's what I think anyway.
Speaking of Zombies, I recommend Dawn of the Dead 2004 Unrated Version & 28 Weeks Later. Please?
Wow, Mad Max 2 The Road Warrior, Kingdom of Apes, and 4 freaking polls based on True Events? Ok, time to get excited folks!
Yay ! Best wishes to you both! 🍿
Congrats to Carly and her soon to be husband.
The Sum of All Fears, my favourite Jack Ryan movie! Nice! Well tied, with Hunt for Red October now that I think about it, but still nice!
Not a Harrison Ford fan, huh. 🤷♂️ JK. JK… ;-)
Road Warriors!! Frick yeah!! Looking forward to all three coming up.
I'm waiting on Double Jeopardy. Unless I missed it somehow??
I came to comment the same.
Have fun this week! Thanks again for all you do! 🎥🧝♀️🍿👏🫶
A Monster calls the Last of us. : )
Have a great wedding Popcorn Fam !!
