i'll stay up all night idc

Before I forget- my suggestion for Christmas (same as last year) - A "watch slot" for TV Christmas specials. I recommend - ALF s02e12 and e13 (Christmas special - 47 minutes) MASH s09e05 (Death Takes a Holiday - 25 minutes) Ally McBeal s02e10 (Making Spirits Bright - 43 minutes) That's 1 hour 55 minutes and will get the Scrooge-iest heart into Christmas. And as a bonus - Black Mirror s02e04 (White Christmas - 1 hour 15 minutes) note - Black Mirror is never "happy" but it does make you think. All four is basically a Lord of the Rings movie in run time, are basically stand alone episodes and you don't need to know anything about the shows other than ALF is an alien who lives with the Tanners, and it introduces Cassie (and possibly Carly) to three series for their downtime series consideration (don't watch episode 1 of Black Mirror until later, if ever).

What’s going on with the full GOT reaction?

I’d do anything for a GoT episode tonight

GOT?

Hoping GoT drops tonight 🙏

please watch the snapper, best irish movie ever and second best comedy of all time

I hope we get a Pollception Poll and a Popcorn Requests random drawing next month. I like these every month. As an alternative, Cassie could do a Movie Brackets Poll, we haven't had one in awhile.

Where is GoT? :)

The expendables series makes me sad. There was a time when I was younger I would have loved to see all the action movies stars together but this series makes me weep. Still on the upside I hope Cassie delves a bit more into some of the actors filmography like jet li. Tango and cash and Universal Solder should be a good ones as it's a two for one. Don't think he was part of this ensemble but Segal's Under Siege is a great movie. But I give JCVD the better back catalogue of action movies to watch.

October scary season was certainly a mixed bag with YT views, with some films getting good engagement and others struggling. Most channels do horror throughout the year, and I'm hoping Cassie will do likewise for the most part. Spreading out horror reactions would be easier on Cassie also, and she has mentioned this on occasion. Maybe a dedicated October scary season just isn't really a thing anymore. It isn't for many channels.

I know this will be ignored, but another reason to have a backup channel on another platform has sprung up (and before anyone says it, patreon isn't a backup)- https://www.dexerto.com/youtube/youtubers-report-widespread-channel-terminations-and-strikes-with-no-warning-3280796/

Super excited to see Cassie's reaction to The Expendables. I'd say it's a coin toss whether she'll enjoy it or not, but it's going to be a fun watch along for us though, that's for sure. 🍿

I didn’t hate Jenny but she frustrated me a lot. Some people are their own worst enemy.

Just a quickie message to the YT overloads. I’m missing a few of my Favourite YT edits: Indiana jones Raiders of the Lost Ark. Star Trek Next Generation: Season 2 key episodes Season 7 key episodes part 2 Please return 🙏 Thank you. 🙂

Why does it seem that people are “setting expectations” only when they say something negative about a film or series, but not if they say something positive? If I were to say “S8 of GoT is great” isn’t that setting expectations too?

train to busan

Soon...

Anyway... there's a scene in "Captain America: Civil War" where Tony Stark says to Bucky "Manchurian Candidate, yer killin me. There's a truce here." which is an absolutely hilarious line that you can finally appreciate.

So... how can a movie that has already been watched be spoiled?

While I have a small minute, I'm just going to round up a few movies Cassie has either promised to watch or come close to nearly watching and should probably revisit: THE PHILADELPHIA STORY (1940) - Best comedy of the black and white era. Jimmy Stewart and Cary Grant star. A SHOT IN THE DARK (1964) - Clouseau unleashed! THE GREAT RACE (1965) - Tony Curtis & Jack Lemmon in the funnest road race movie outside of the Burt Reynolds gold standard. BATMAN (1966) - The original and the best. Holy oversight, Batman! COOL HAND LUKE (1967) - There are no excuses left. There are eggs to be eaten and cars to be washed. KELLY'S HEROES (1970) - Clint and Donald Sutherland in a fun war caper. KLUTE (1971) - Watch Chris McQuarrie's personal suggestion already! TOWERING INFERNO (1974) - How epic does a film need to be to get some respect around here!? INVASION OF THE BODYSNATCHERS (1978) - Good way to ease into your new "Occasional Horror throughout the year" routine. MIDNIGHT RUN (1988) - De Niro and Charles Grodin make a great pair. Good fun all round. CITY SLICKERS (1991) - Billy Crystal is on vacation! THELMA & LOUISE (1991) - Ladies! You at least have to watch the original before you star in the remake! A PERFECT WORLD (1993) - Necessary spoiler for this Costner classic - No children are abused in this movie! BATMAN FOREVER (1995) - You need to see Kilmer's stint as Brucie. LOCK STOCK & TWO SMOKING BARRELS (1998) - This will rectify the heinous error of watching Snatch before the original installment. Brilliant fun with the occasional "Oh my gosh" moment. TRAINING DAY (2001) - Denzel in iconic form. THE STATION AGENT (2003) - Tyrion Lannister in a tender little movie. More GODZILLA (she never specified which ones, but SHIN GODZILLA is apparently a good one) KING KONG (2005) - You promised. YOUR NAME (2016) - You promised. And finally......BULLITT (1968) - YOU (never) PROMISED!

Can you tell more of your reactor friends to watch Michael Douglas's The Game

Not gonna lie, excited for the Expendables reaction.

Glad you got some time with friends. That sounds fun. Thank you to everyone who served in our military. Really looking forward to Forrest Gump. Been anticipating that one for a while now. Happy Fall, Kernels.

How on earth did "Three Days of the Condor" win the Robert Redford poll? Off the top of my head I can think of 8 or 10 Redford movies (ones Cassie hasn't seen, I mean) that are WAY better than that absurdly-premised film.

Three Days of the Condor. Yeah. I hope she gets around to Out of Africa soon.

You got me excited with the title, thinking you were announcing a PiB reactors Con and we could all come say hi! :P

Edit: message was for Joe J's meassage below but I screwed up because i'm a dumb dumb. Sorry but you are wrong about the new Frankenstein movie having any hype. I just went to check YT, and the big reaction channels like Reel Reject or Cinepals are getting 30K views. This is not anything special. To me, the views are in older, more nostalgic movies that people want to see over and over.

It's been many years since I last saw FORREST GUMP, so It's probably due for a rewatch. Who knows? Maybe I'll actually like it more this time.

Can you please let us know which version of The Expendables you are watching, (Theatrical or Extended Uncut version) , so we can sync up the correct copy with you. Also if you are trying to squeeze in more movies next week, Please still finish, and post, GOT season 3, next week too. Thank you so much!!

Glad you had a good time with your mates Cassie. We all need a little time with those chosen family members. The ones that make us laugh and remind us of our younger years. Don’t worry about the Manchurian, as I’ve said before it’s amazing it hasn’t happened before. Im looking forward to this week. I’m finally catching the GoT bug and I’m now having to stop myself binging it as well!! Forrest Gump with Carly will be enjoyable with a few tears I’m sure and the all Action Expendables will be fun. You are the best Cass ❤️

Please please please watch the extended cut of Expendables* Much more serious plot and Character development + action *🫡*

IMO Cassie needs to jump on F1 and Frankenstein very soon so she can get maximum YT views. Don't wait too long on new releases. And also MI:8 soon.

I love the theme to Gilmore Girls, “Where You Lead” by the great Carole King, obviously, but… are you sure you aren’t humming The Golden Girls theme song… “Thank You for Being a Friend” by Cindy Fee https://youtu.be/23GrEhLUF_k?si=nHtEse75pBQ0uOpI

The year is winding down, and what an incredible lineup of movies you’ve been reacting to, Cassie! Keep up the amazing work — 2026 is already shaping up to be an exciting year. There are several new releases in theaters now, like the rom-com Eternity, that you’ll probably get to by midyear. And with Game of Thrones wrapping up for you around December or January, I can’t wait to see what you dive into next!

I feel about this month the way horror haters feel about October. Barely anything to watch so far - basically just 3 Days of the Condor. And December won’t be much better if it’s all just Christmas movies. We’ve seen all the good “nice” Christmas movies. How about Krampus or even Bad Santa this year.

That puzzle you had trouble with..... As you started to complete it, did you suddenly realise that the picture that was forming was of the very room you were sitting in? And that the young woman sitting at the table was you? And because you'd seen Dead Poets recently, you bodyswerved a nasty Halloween moment by refusing to place the last piece and running out of the room like a scorched cat instead? Just wondering.

Team Cassie all day everyday

I have a deep inner feeling that Carly will love FG... Really looking forward to this.

My weekly ask for Fantastic Four: First Steps till It gets watched. It’s become one of my favorite movies in the superhero genre.

stil waiting for Carly to get invited to Kat's horror channel for a wednesday weekly collab scary night movie watch-along.. Should be fun. lol

Losing The Manchurian Candidate is a real tragedy. Hopefully you still feel very very guilty. As a penance, you could pick 10 other great Classic Era movies to watch. Like The Philadelphia Story for starters. I assure you it would absolve all guilt, and you'll have a good time doing it! This looks like a great week of movies (and of course GOT episodes) as fall rolls coldly along. This is a great season!

Dear Cassie & Carly the rest of the PIB Crew and Distinguished PIB Viewers, About Last Week: We watched the Manchurian Candidate, even though it didn't get posted. No one is to blame here. Serious of unfortunate circumstances. It happens sometimes. To me it happens all the time. At least we had GOT and Dead Poets Society. We spent the weekend watching the new Frankenstein and the mini series All Her Fault on Peacock. Holy crap did that of a shocker of ending. Great performances all around. Its still great to see Cassie and Carly together. The GOAT girls as we call them. We just about the Unriveled 3 on 3 basketball league. The Expansion team the Breeze has Paige Bueckers and Kate Martin ( former Iowa girl) on it . My PT told me about it needless to say we all in. Looking ahead to the future: This week we have more GOT getting closer Almost to season 4. Forrest Gump what a soundtrack! The Expendables. I remember watching this movie but I don't remember anything about it. That's strange.🤔 My gf and I are celebrating Tender November watching old Romcoms. Counting the days till we get to go to the Dominican Republic to see my Dad for Thanksgiving. He has the Internet so we still will get to see The Steelers game against the Bills that weekend. All right song time. My gf who is multi racial wanted Buttons by The Pussycat Dolls ft Snoop Dogg. I wanted Seether ft Amy Lee, Broken. We compromised on a love song from the 90's that is in every wedding reception. Here is the last of the Tender November songs Babyface, Everytime I Close My Eyes: https://youtu.be/GbrSO81KhBY?si=mCBl5hx2HQ2YPL95 I bid you good day! back to morning prayers while I fall back asleep

Me and puzzles = oil and water lol. Oldest brother loves em. Carly having never seen forrest gump was not on my bingo card. That'll be fun. Expendables, well, bring on the action. More GOT, yes! Lastly, I want to echo your thanks to all current military and veterans for their service 💪

From myself and those who have served, and still serve, thank you Cassie, for thinking of our veterans and their families. I always thought that there should be a holiday to honor the families of veterans. They go through so much as well, when their loved ones are deployed. They make the ultimate sacrifice as well, when they lose their loved ones. They go through it all just as much as we do.

Do you mean, To The Tune of "Golden Girls"?

I'm really sorry to hear about The Manchurian Candidate (1962), Cassie. Suggestion: Maybe do a Lord of the Rings/Lion King and rewatch it with Carly? Also, this might cheer you up; In the Scene By Scene book I sent you, there is an interview chapter with Janet Leigh talking about making the train scene with Frank Sinatra, page 73!!!

Definitely looking forward to GoT and FG.

Hey Cassie! Shout out from your little favorite ole US Marine! Thank you for the kind words to myself and our fellow veterans! Glad to hear your doing well! <3

Thank you for acknowledging all veterans on this day. Let us also remember that this was day was originally known as Armistice Day, which marked the end of World War I. I was hoping this week would be The Expendables and 2001: A Space Odyssey, what a contrast that would have been. I hope you are getting a chance to enjoy November, Cassie.

Oh Cassie, My Cassie…I just finished watching Dead Poets Society with you and Carly. I know it was a hard crash after being so uplifting and inspiring for the first half of the movie, but it really is such a great movie. So, at one point towards the beginning of the movie, you said you loved Robin Williams’ face. So that got me to thinking, we need more of his face on the channel. Therefore, I’m going to petition for a Robin Williams poll, despite you just having watched DPS. I submit the following movies: - Patch Adams (1998), with Philip Seymour Hoffman - Awakenings (1990), with Robert DeNiro - Bicentennial Man (1999), with Sam Neill - The Best of Times (1986), with Kurt Russell - The Fisher King (1991), with Jeff Bridges - The Bird Cage (1996), with Nathan Lane P.S. - why is that jigsaw puzzles can be so relaxing and so maddening at the same time? 🫠

Next Stallone movie has to be Cop Land

Put music to the Manchurian Candidate. You can make it silent reaction and honour Nosferatu.😄

Cassie on behalf of myself and all of the veterans here on PIB and elsewhere thank you for always thinking about us and your gratitude!

I have a cousin who served in the Marines as a Military Police officer in Japan. I had two grandpas and a grandma who served during the Second World War. None of them saw combat (although one of my grandpas saw a Japanese Zero flew by his cargo ship, but for whatever reason didn’t attacked it thankfully), but they served in their own ways. Sorry you had to cancel your reaction to the original Manchurian Candidate thanks to the soundboard hiccups, but at least you can make it up for it by watching the remake. You’re still and always ok. 😉🙂 I can’t wait to see your (rewatched) reaction with Carly for Forrest Gump! Should be a good one! And I had a wonderful time watching my Spartans defeat the Nittany Lions in hockey and against a future NHL superstar, Gavin McKenna (Sorry Dan M). He’s legit and with time, he should be a superstar. Tally ho folks!

Run Carly, Run, lol

I said it on the other post and I'll say it again: future "re-do with Carly" week where you two do What's Up, Doc?, The Manchurian Candidate, and (taking a cue from others) Interstellar.

Bye week on Patreon for me, but ITNOTF coming to Youtube more than makes up for it!!!

Yeah if you could keep the extra butter for the Tuesday that would be great haha, GoT and Gump will be fantastic, Expendables is a throw back to the old action movies that's for sure. I recently saw it's going in to 5 years on Youtube next month what a milestone!, amazing how time has flew by you'll have to do a top 10 of the films you have watched on the channel.

Have tissues on hand for Forrest,Forrest Gump!! :)

I do hope you watch expendables 2 as well some day. Its more fun. But stop there as they get much worse after. Also I wonder if you’ve ever thought of continuing the Rambo Franchise. 2 is fun and 3 is pure cheese and fun. But 4 is really good and closer in tone to the original but I will say the subject matter is very intense.

I think you meant Golden Girls😉

This week is going to be FIRE 🔥
