She needs to see t he Hot Chick (McAdams) And Freaky 2020... SHe's gonna love those.. Ultimate "rom-com" chick flicks.
I watched Hot Chicks like 45 times in high school haha-we quoted it constantly!
I've never seen so many horrible movies all in one place hahaha...wow...who TF nominates all these no-name movies like Bank of Dave when this girl still has at least 50 bona fide classics to see FIRST?? I just don't get it. "Hurray for everything!" ugh...everything that's wrong with the whole 'YT/Patreon System.'
The people that like the movies they picked. It's kind of the point of Pick-A-Flick.
To say that I am executor this pick would be an understatement! It’s definitely been my personal list of movies I’d love for you to watch. Funny that My blue heaven and red are also but I will hve to wait. With you recently watching sense and sensibility too I will happily wait 🥰
top 10 oscar winning musicals are walking on shinsung Oliver Chicago west side story the sound if music mary poppins Billy Elliot top secret the little mermaid live action song sung blue the jungle book live action aladdin live action Better Man we talk about Cassie said you ar winner
I cannot believe that Woman in the Dunes got that close to winning. That would have been a mind blowing reaction. I can’t imagine what Cassie would have thought of it.
It's clear from some of these replies that a lot of people who haven't seen Fried Green Tomatoes have a misconception about what type of movie Fried Green Tomatoes is.
There are multiple tones in the movie. It's kind of all over the place. Even the main storyline isn't quite explicit.
I just now watched this. I came in 4th place!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I've never gotten that close. Cassie, didn't even say "Good-Bye, Mark" when I was eliminated. She's still upset at me for laughing at her remark about "10 Things I Hate About You". Somehow, some way, Cassie will watch "Dark City".
It seemed like some people had technical problems with the new Pick A Flick system this month. I noticed on March 1st, my new PaF selection disappeared, along with my Note to Cassie. I added the movie again, so it should be fine for March. But when I scrolled through my PaF selections from previous months, it just showed my current pick. It doesn't show that my PaF selections from December and January were "Bullet Train" or that my PaF selection won last month. So I hope they fix that soon. Ideally, our PaF selections should carry over each month.
btw why are you still submitting if you've already had a winning pick?
Red was so close to being watched it was so disappointing. But not seen the Green Tomatoes film lol. But I think the girls will really enjoy it. If anything Jessica Tandy was an excellent actress, as I thought she was amazing in Driving Miss Daisy with Morgan Freeman. But my favourite movie she was in is Batteries Not Included, loved it as a kid in the 80s & I still think it holds up quite well today. The only thing that lets it down is the villains are a bit cringy and very one dimensional.
My sister and niece love FGT. They were watching it once while I was visiting and it made me want to throw myself out of a window. But I was younger, less open minded person then.
Can’t believe I got the pick!! I hope you do love the movie.
Congratulations.
Is this where I submit my Pick a Flick movie for next month or do I look for it somewhere else?
Not here, Keith. Go to the FAQ post at the top and there's a link to Pick-a-Flick.
I think I was in the final 6!!
Very nice event. I'm happy I caught it live this time after missing the last two live events -stupid need for sleep. Congratulations to the winner. Fried Green Tomatoes. Not exactly a personal favourite of mine, but that's the fun of the whole event - you don't know what you'll get. Ah, nearly forgot. Concerning the war movie poll, I'd also like to use this post to throw Paths of Glory (1957) into the mix.
Was that a Kubrick movie?
The poster for Fried Green Tomatoes really makes it look like they were angling hard for the Steel Magnolias audience.
It's not the same movie? :-)

All Time - All Time - All Time Great Pick for Cassie! I wish I would have picked FGT (or Rocketeer, another last 20 pick, which Cassie would love). Fried Green Tomatos is a MUST for Carly to also watch... and destined to be a Cassie FAVORITE!
I hope PAF isn't our only chance at getting Sunshine. Is it ever making any polls?
It was just on the sci fi poll. Think it came in fifth.
March PAF already has 370 entries, and its only March 7. I guess auto carryover from Feb helped keep the number of entries high.
My February selection didn't carry over, and some people in chat during last night's PaF Draw said theirs didn't either. I caught the error on March 1st and just added it back, but my Note to Cassie was lost. People should be aware of that; otherwise, whatever they write will disappear every month -- until they iron out the kinks in the system.
Why's it suddenly telling me to "Sign in to confirm you are not a bot" on every video? First thing this morning was fine but now I can't get into anything. As you can see from this post, I am signed in and always was.
Seems to have fixed it itself.
I made it to the last 20, but then I wasn't included in the final draw... Dang! But I'm happy with the winner. Fried Green Tomatoes is really good.
Wow, Xanadu would have been an interesting reaction. :)
All Over the World is a banger.
I've not seen Fried Green Tomatoes so hope it's a good one, but we were so close to getting Where Eagles Dare. Perhaps it will do well on the war poll coming up but if she combines Flags of Our Fathers and Letters from Iwo Jima as one pick as she said she was going to i'd imagine that it will trounce everything else on poll.
Think you and Carly will love Fried Green tomatoes. Haven't seen it in years but it's a lovely movie.
That was devastating, made it to like the top 30 closest I’ve been in months.
Holy crow I got close on that one! Missed it by one.
You mentioned Batman Forever may get a reaction. I would prefer Batman (1966) b/c of nostalgia but curioius to see the Val Kilmer Batman. For Batman, I am most excited that The Dark Knight trilogy rewatch is a 2026 PiB watch goal.
I'd love to see both BATMAN FOREVER and the 1966 BATMAN get a reaction.
Did I hear Cassie wrong or did she mention a person’s name then say they had already won!? I thought that you weren’t allowed to re-enter if you win.
Yeah. There's probably not a programmed lockout on accounts that have won prior. I like to think that there would have been a redraw had he won or there was just a similar name and she was mistaken
Fried Green Tomatoes, good one... There were a lot of good ones in that 20... ! Edit - Some titles I found interesting for March... Strictly Ballroom... Joe vs The Volcano... Desperado... The Butterfly Effect... The Duellists... Paris, Texas... Addicted to Love... Pillow Talk... Your Name... Manhunter... Drop Dead Fred... Vanilla Sky... okay that's a lot, and I'm leaving out a few more...!
Someone on a recent forum had suggested voting on Australian flicks; Strictly Ballroom would be among my top picks! So would Lion (2016) if it were on the list, takes place partly in India and Australia, amazing true story!
Congrats John. Fried Green Tomatoes (on Cassie's "shortlist") not among my top choices of the entries but not a bad choice for me. Glad you won. IMDb 7.7, RT 77%, RT Audience 87%. "Fried Green Tomatoes' tearjerking drama is undeniably manipulative, but in the hands of a skilled cast that includes Jessica Tandy and Kathy Bates, it's also powerfully effective." Richard M and Stick Figure were among the initial ones that popped out (eliminated). Several good ones in the final 100. As for the war movie poll, +1 for The Thin Red Line and +1 for The Deer Hunter. Empire of the Sun is much better than Tears of the Sun. I have nostalgia for 13th Warrior that is getting a reaction. A big +1 for TNG episode "The Defector."
Made it to Top 20… then Glitch… then Redo… then Lose. Story Of My Life.
Been there Larry. And it sucks.
Yay -- she said Children of Men is PPOTM this month. Awesome. Looking forward to that reaction.
I could cry. So so so happy. That movie changed my life.
I think that she'll LOVE an old movie favorite of mine. Comedy and speed with movie stars plenty (at the time). Cannonball Run !! I'd love to see her reactions to the outtakes.
Darn, missed it live. So fried green tomatoes got the W? Never seen that one from start to finish. I think the last time we saw kathy bates on the channel she was smashing some poor man's ankles. Nice glasses, Cassie. Seriously 👍
I love that movie. Went to Reno with a buddy of mine has to be 28 years ago now. Went drank so much on day one, so on day two we stayed in most of the day before rallying and this movie came on. We thought we’d hate it, but it was really good. She’ll enjoy this.
Feel like it was filmed in some of the same places as The Walking Dead. Some of the locations looked familiar.
Fried Green Tomatoes is a good one, yall do know that she'll still end up watching the other movies right? its not like if they lost they are forever never watched lmao
Well there's about 5,000 movies on the request site and PiB is currently watching 2 per week so it would take about 48 years to watch them all assuming no more were added
Worse than losing this Pick-a Flick. - Cassie saying she wants to watch Batman Forever. I’m hoping she’s confusing that trash for some other Batman movie. What a waste of her reaction time.
It's one of those movies most reactors get to at some point unfortunately
The Day The Earth Stood Still (1951); Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942); Airport (1970); The Day After (1983); Hearafter (2010).
With all that is going on now and the nuclear threat returning with a vengeance, The Day After (1983) would be great to watch and see a reaction and commentary for; On the Beach (1959) and Testament (1983) would be great, as well.
Fried Green Tomatoes was the winner
Several good movies in the final 20……unfortunately they all lost.
Yes. There were about 19 I would have liked.
OMG.... PLEASE.... THE SPy WHO DUMPED ME
Please choose The Rocketeer (1991)!!! EDIT: D'oh!!
I'll be here for the drawing and not the YouTube feed. Good luck to me! lol
Ballerina of John Wick, Breakdown, Jurassic World Domion, Rebirth, Mission Impossible Final Reckoning, The Fallen trilogy (Gerard Butler & Morgan Freeman). That's my recommendations.
Alas, Final Reckoning is the worst Mission Impossible movie. What a shame that this truly great franchise ended on such an inferior note.
