Upcoming!
Good morning.afternoon and evening from wherever and whenever you are reading this! Hope you are having a great week so far!
First off THANK YOU THANK YOU for coming and participating in any way at THE POPPIES!! We had so much fun, we loved hanging with all of you and celebrating the community and the movies! Thank you again to Ben and Carly and our mods and longtime friend of the channel, Mr. Jordan-absolutley could not do any of it without them and of course all of you! Until next year!
Well we have had hockey something every night this week but it is winding down now until the nice long one week break until the spring/summer season haha. Its warming up so beautifully here right now (sorry to rub it in east coast storm people) and I am currently listening to 17 kids rollerblading in front of my house.
This week we have The Philadelphia Story (with Carly) the absolutely EPIC conclusion of GOT season 6 OMGGGGGG (drops tonight) and Awakenings-the runner up from our Robin Williams Poll. Next week we will have Fried Green Tomatoes (our pick a flick winner) Kingdom of Heaven and Children of Men. Taking a one week break on Patreon from GOT then will dive back into season 7 the following week!
If you missed it yesterday we had our annual PiB MOVIE MADNESS LIVE DRAWING! Where each team in the NCAA basketball bracket was assigned a movie that was randomly drawn from top requested movies in different genres. It was so fun and now will make the games (for me at least) even more fun to watch! The movies will move on if the team does until we get to the championship game in a couple of weeks.
Ben has made an interactive bracket with all the teams and movies right here on the new website You can check out the matchups and we added a fun little betting system where you can spend "butter bucks" (not actual bucks). Go BYU/Commando?? haha
Don't forget to enter your Pick-a-Flick for this month as well!
This week on YT we have Sense and Sensibility, The Last Dragon (a previous edit we are now putting on YT) and GOT!
Thanks for the mems guys!
Love, Cassie

For those who are interested: emme reacts is reacting to Buffy the Vampire Slayer (series). She just released episode 1 on YouTube.
Richard - I assume you watched Dakara's Buffy reactions? I'm currently watching her X-Files reactions.
Jen Murray just did a reaction to Jason and Argonauts and while I’m not a big fan of hers I did enjoy it. Though a lot of that might be just seeing any reactor of note react to this movie. And It’s getting a decent number of views so far, 16.9k in 13 hours.
I almost feel as though Jen has a bigger percentage of 'older' subs/patrons than a lot of other channels (or more open-minded ones, anyway). I mean, most of her '50s/'60s sci-fi and fantasy movie reactions have done really well by her standards; meanwhile, views on her MCU reactions so far have been pretty middling. 🤔
SWEET 16 (games this Thu/Fri). Pulling for Mystic River, In Bruges, Scott Pilgrim, Insider, Night of the Living Dead. Drama/Crime The Next Three Days (#1) vs Mystic River (#5) Gone with the Wind (#2) vs Regarding Henry (#3) Comedy ¡Three Amigos! (#4) vs In Bruges (#9) This is Spinal Tap (#2) vs Little Shop of Horrors (#3) Action/Adventure The Last Boy Scout (#1) vs Scott Pilgrim (#4) The Rocketeer (#2) vs Ladyhawke (#11) Horror/Thriller U.S. Marshals (#1) vs The Insider (#4) Crimson Peak (#2) vs Night of the Living Dead (#6)
At this point the only one I really care about is Night of the Living Dead. There are 3 or 4 others I wouldn’t mind winning, the rest I don’t care about at all.
RIP Valerie Perrine. She played Miss Teschmacher in Superman (78), among many other roles.
Miss Teschmacherrrrrrrr!! I think the only other film I've seen her in is "Lenny" -- which never gets reactions. 😒
😭 It's official, there are now no films left in March Madness I have any interest in.
I'm down to 4: "Night of the Living Dead," "Ladyhawke," "This Is Spinal Tap," and "Little Shop of Horrors" (unfortunately, the latter 2 are facing off with each other next, so I'll be down to 3 at most in the next round). 🤷♂️
the incredible the strut of how mankind discovered man's best friend ALPHA with WOLF beautifully filmed and deservers to be seen this wonderful winner movie
I hope we can get some movies by the end of the week ⌛️ If not any chance of an update to abandon hope?
I'm coming to the site about every 3 hours to see if she has posted The Philadelphia Story. I don't trust my phone to give the notification. Only sleep slows my process. My pins and needles, which I am on, have pins and needles.
RIp Nicholas Brendon. Was brilliant as Xander in Buffy. Was also in a really underrated and brilliant indie movie Coherence. Worth a watch of you haven't seen it.
RIP Chuck Norris.
Chuck Norris doesn't rest, he waits
Carly and Cassie need to watch Ready Or Not 2019. Esp. the sequel cos teh sequel has Buffy vamp slayer and frodo.. Go see that. Totally a date movie!
The sequel came out already? How was it?
Ah, man. Can't go wrong with Penny Marshall. I don't see Big (1988) on your Letterboxd which might be the most PiB-tailored movie ever.
No, wait, never mind. I caught the seen mark on the request site. Also I think Renaissance Man is underrated and was hit with the snob critic cudgel. I said it.
Please Watch Hope Floats with. Carly and F1. A Quiet Place and Beverly Hills Cop Series Peaky Blinders and One Piece
+1 for Series Peaky Blinders. I think she may have watched the first episode or two and didn't like it?
Oh Dear God No! Please don't watch The Last Dragon. That movie was terrible! I in fact enjoyed it when it came out, but it really didn't age well. Maybe go with a better Kick-Chop Spoof Movie, like Big Trouble In Little China?
She watched The Last Dragon in January(?) and she didn't like Big Trouble.
I saw that Ohio St (Cool Hand Luke) lost. I thought about Clarence.
That’s too bad. Good movie too, I wouldn’t have been mad if it won.
Am I the only one who doesn’t care about Children of Men? It’s not a horrible film but, without spoilers, a big piece of the plot makes no sense. By the time I finished it I didn’t really care about the outcome.
Never really liked it. Too woke
Children of Men, I've been waiting for this one for years and would be returning for a month just for this reaction alone. But with Kingdom of Heaven also finally happening (hope it's the DC, the theatrical is quite bad) I'm super excited for next week.
It is the Director’s cut.
Since you and Carly love superhero stuff, how about watching Spawn 1997? It has Martin Sheen in it.. Very underrated franchise. It's neither Marvel or DC.. you're gonna love that.
The first season of the animated show is so much better and is about the same length.
Cassie, I have been trying to keep my head down and ears closed with GoT, but half the comments are suggesting something big for these next two episodes! I mean it always ends big! But how big can it be this time??!! Im going to watch tonight, it’s going to be exciting! I haven’t seen the two movies, so hopefully they are good ones. I caught the first part of the poppies but had to head off to bed! But, as always it was excellent. You both looked awesome. It’s funny you wanting “Commando” to do well, because it’s a proper boys movie.😆 Have a great week Cass. You are the best❤️
Have you been watching GOT in tandem with the channel this whole time? For the first run?
Good Morning, Cassie, Ben and Carly as well as the rest of the PIB family and to all of Cassie's viewers, About Last Week: The Poppies were fantastic except for the singing in the shower that might have been a bit much. However Eva and I had so much fun. You did say my last name wrong it's pronounced (Key-ler) Then there was March Madness live. Much respect to the man behind the camera, Ben seriously great job putting that altogether. Now I was running the blender during some of it which sent our husky into a tantrum, (look up husky drama queen on YT and you'll see what I mean.) However when I heard Cassie say I am doing Battlestar Galactica I threw up in my mouth a little bit and did full body shudder like you see on the Simpsons this was completely involuntary I assure you. I will say this if you like the show more power to you. I probably should continue this conversation on my YT video next week. Rather than ruin this letter. I was going to donate more money but my little ARNP got busy at work. Sorry about that. It won't happen again. Onto the movies my hunny watched Oblivion and I watched Falling Down. We both watched GOT. We will watch the EPIC season finale tonight. All in all a Fantastic week. You should be proud of yourselves. The Week Ahead: Philadelphia Story so romantic beautiful story. One of the most romantic movies of all time. Awakings great story. Of course GOT The Battle Of The Bastards. Song Of The Week. So quickly this is one of our favorite groups of today YUNGBLUD with there cover of the Kiss song I Was Made For Lovin' You From the Fall Guy soundtrack my gf Eva thinks this song is hot. 🥵 https://youtu.be/gaD55NqPJA0?si=QnWN4YpBGyRnkv3K I bid you good day!
He did great on that Kiss cover.
You guys look amazing as always. 🤩
Why incessantly ask where GoT is every week when you already know the answer is “it’s tonight, whenever they’re ready to release it”?
What people are really asking is whether they can expect it today or abandon hope and make other plans. I do think that if reactions are going to carry over into the following week then just give a quick update not to expect them till Monday or Tuesday—because fans of the channel will spend Sunday evening hitting refresh every 15 minutes if there's something they're anticipating Also Cassie is in the West so, 'it'll be up tonight' means it could be anywhere between 9pm-2am their time
Wow Children of Men is a great movie. I jokingly suggested it in a YouTube comment comparing post apocalyptic London to new York on the escape to New York vid. Not quite as bad a future as NY depicts but grim just the same. Has a great cast and an interesting premise. Will be thought provoking. Clive Owen is very underrated. I think you've only seen him in Inside Man. He was originally offered the role of Iron Man.
So, does GoT drop tonight, as in today? or tonight as in tomorrow? xD
Stayed up late. No game of thrones 😞
Hour and a half left until midnight in California.
We have reached the notorious back to back! Can’t wait for the drop.
I’ll stay up until 4am est. I will watch game of thrones tonight!
not that anyone will see this comment, and it's based on excitement, not criticism, but are getting got tonight?
Any time she says drop "tonight" -- most likely that means early a.m. the next day.
Almost forgot: My nominee for the next year of March madness and beyond? Clockwork Orange..
Under 2.5 hours and tonight isn't tonight anymore. Let's go, GoT.
Oh, eps 9 and 10 are going to drop tonight? Ok honey, plans are cancelled tonight! lol
Philadelphia Story is one of my top 5 PIB requests. Very excited. Next one to work on - Charade. Then Father Goose. And Operation Petticoat. (I have non-Carey Grant films on my list too…)
Where's Children of Men???
From this post: "Next week we will have Fried Green Tomatoes (our pick a flick winner) Kingdom of Heaven and Children of Men."
Oh my GODDDD. You spoil us. Omg. S6 finale of GoT, Kingdom of Heaven and FINALLY Children of Men? I’m gonna cry. Thank you, Cassie!!! 🙏🙌❤️
The Poppies were good fun, knew Cold Mountain was gonna win that one award. I planned to catch up on GoT later today as had yet to get round to 7+8 so 4 hours including some of the best eps to binge tonight then 😁.
Well if you end up with a BYU win/ having to go commando, it's a good thing the utah weather's been warming up lol..JK. Honestly would love seeing that win, because it's one of my favorite Arnold flicks. Think Rambo/John Wick. Again, the poppies were a blast. Thank you, Carly, Ben and the team. Heard so many good things about Philadelphia story so, can't wait for that especially.
Game of Thrones tonight?!?!? Oh my!
Awakenings is such an underrated film. Incredible performances of a true story
Awakenings is such a great movie!! Get the tissues out!
Are we not having the March Madness competition as well this year? Where the person who gets the most points gets to pick some movies?
Did that happen last year?
Glad you're enjoying the warm weather. We had a wind chill of 5° Tuesday Night and it's still pretty cold here in Michigan. It's supposed to be about 70° on Saturday but it's going to drop back down to the 40's in a day or two, Michigan weather🤔😒Looking forward to March Madness! Actually the Horror/Thriller section had the most I was excited about, should be an interesting season.
Weather wise, tell me about it…😒
So at last The Philadelphia Story is here! And with Carly will make an extra special reaction! What a great week this is! Every reaction a highlite!
You know nothing Cassie Snow.... ....well nm now you know everything 🤣
You ladies are just too gorgeous for words....oh behave!!!
I bet Cassie was grinning ear to ear after Battle of the Bastards.
I've literally been waiting for 6x09 and 6x10 since the first second that you started watching this series lol. This is gonna be intense
SAME. I'm so ready
I've never seen Awakenings (1989), but I'll be interested in your reaction to it, Cassie. There is a sweet, funny blooper to it on YouTube, I've never seen Robert De Niro laugh so hard! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UBtEPQKyRE Also, there is a sweet, funny clip of Robin Williams paying tribute to Robert De Niro at the AFI Awards, I've never seen Martin Scorsese laugh so hard! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgT707uizYI
Finally getting to Awakenings. I thought it would have been a Popcorn Pick long before this.
At least we get the Popcorn Pick "Children of Men" this week.
Let’s GOOOOOOT!
Didn't realise that "Commando" was tied to BYU when I watched the watch the stream. It adds something extra knowing Cassie has an increased interesting in that piece of 'peak cinema' through her alma mater.
At first, I was wondering why she was going to ‘go Commando’ . . . Then I caught on.
Cassie, last week in response to posts I and AceofSpades501 made you promised that The Day the Earth Stood Still would be on YT this week with Sense and Sensibility, 🤞, will it be on next week??
Oh, nice! All good this week!
is there no PiB Yahoo Bracket challenge for the NCAA Tournament this year? Loved the last two, they were a blast. We're running out of time if there is!!!!
There is no yahoo bracket this year
Sense and Sensibility! Yes!
GOT season final and Philadelphia Story with Carly this week...pinch me I'm must be dreaming!
GOT dropping tonight?? That's what I'm talkin about!!!
"dramatic music in the background" I planned my entire day around The Poppies. Made sure I got every important errand completed before 3:30-ish my time on Saturday to watch the big event. Then we got the message about your son's hockey game and Carly's husband. As a dutiful subject of yours, I stayed in front of my computer refreshing every few minutes for the next update. Stopping only to gather up a good spread of snacks to enjoy for when the big moment would arrive. 2 hours had passed and I had all but given up, figuring that things were more complicated and The Poppies would be postponed. All of a sudden a fellow member, said that the show had been on already. Alas, there the two of you were on stage and I made it in time to witness the last two awards. Allie Hamilton may have waited seven years for Noah Calhoun, but I waited three hours in front of my computer waiting for your show. Now that is devotion. Forgive my dramatics, this is not written with anger or malice. I just wish we had gotten that update on Patreon that the show was starting. I'm still here for you, Cassie. You're the best. ❤️
Aww that's kind of tragic. You were waiting for a link over to YouTube? Pretty much the only things you have to wait for a link for are the Extra Butter chats at the end of the month, and some Pick a Flicks.
I especially like Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story. Such an interesting character. I will be curious of your comparison to Cate Blanchett's portrayal of her in The Aviator. GoT banger episodes tonight. I don't think I've seen Awakenings -- will watch the reaction. For sure looking forward to Children of Men and Kingdom of Heaven next week.
Dinah cracks me up.
I'm sorry I wasn't there for the Poppies, but I'm glad y'all had fun, though at one point I did catch a glimpse and let me just simply say both you and Carly looked absolutely lovely in the dresses you picked out! Yeah I missed your live yesterday for March Madness, I had to work! I'll be honest with you, IDK why but lately I just haven't been myself! Nobody, not even you could snap me out of it! Plus lately, work has just been kicking my rear end! Last night, St Paddy's Day at work was nuts, I ended up doing an hour and 15 minutes overtime, ugh! I honestly am only looking forward to your reaction to "The 13th Warrior"! That's one of my favorite movies despite it was a box office bomb! Anyway, I'm still working on my fan letter to you with voting poll ideas! You take care and have a good rest of your week! Love and support always 🥰😇🙏😁😉✌️🌹
Successful poppies and now we get spoiled with episodes 9&10 tonight!?!?! That just made my day
The Poppies were awesome this year, everyone did a fantastic job and it was so much fun. You and Carly were great. Excellent lineup of movies. I wondered how you would feel about the end of GoT season 6. Can’t wait to watch. Thanks again for such a fun and entertaining channel.
Yay! Philadelphia Story! Katharine Hepburn bought the rights to make this her comeback film. She had become box office poison despite her winning Best Actress in her early career for Morning Glory. Her dismissive and impatient attitude caused her to be disliked by the public and press, who nicknamed her “Katharine of Arrogant”. In this film, she wanted to get her comeuppance to satisfy her critics and the press. She asked Cary Grant to star with her, and Grant agreed, wanting to help her faltering career. With Jimmy Stewart, this made a stacked cast, a love rectangle!
It is better to have said "Go BYU/Commando" than "Go commando, BYU"😂😂😂
Glad to see Awakenings happening on the channel. Such a wild true life story. Fantastic performances by all.
Props to Ben on the great Website! Very well made and useful.
GoT TONIGHT? Oh damn Cass you just made our Wednesday! I've been dying to see your reaction to these two episodes in particular for sooo long.
Love the Poppies pic!! So glamorous! 🤩
THE PHILADELPHIA STORY Is a classic. Jimmy Stewart, Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant. I think you will both love it. AWAKENINGS is a wonderful little gem of a movie. Emotional and very satisfying with some solid direction by Penny Marshall. It was the first film I saw that had Robin Williams giving a serious performance and It made me realize that he was a very good dramatic actor. De Niro is fantastic as always and was even nominated for an academy award. Really looking forward to next week with CHILDREN OF MEN and KINGDOM OF HEAVEN: DIRECTOR'S CUT. I'll talk more about those when we get to him, but for now, keep up the good work. :-)
Robin Williams. Robert DeNiro. Awakenings. One of my most anticipated reactions of the year…and perhaps since I’ve been a Patreon member. Can’t wait!
Banger week cant wait
She has already finished season 6 of Game of Thrones and it drops tonight?! Oh my God. I've been waiting for her reaction to the finale of season 6 since she started this show. I bet she completely lost it. 😂
I bet she did! Further below she said she couldn't sleep because she was still reeling from it. It's going to be epic, and finally in a more positive way. No tears this time, or maybe tears of joy?
Awakenings is something I will look forward to! My mom used to be a psychiatric nurse in her heyday and would tell me all kind of stories that goes on with patients. Some of them are quite hilarious!
I think my mom was a secretary or something for just a couple years at one in her 20's, and she said they would find them screwing out on the lawn. lol
'The Philadelphia Story' or "The Battle of the Mid-Atlantic Accents"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
With the exception of Stewart’s midwestern twang!
Looking forward to Kingdom of Heaven next week.
I’ll bet Cassie can do a half way decent impression of Katharine Hepburn
You’ll love awakenings, one of my favourite Robin Williams performances. Didn’t you say you were watching the 13th Warrior at some point?
yes! Planning on it! I have a big list of I O U's in the next few weeks haha
I’m gonna be on GOTs like white on rice tonight! lookin fwd to it. 🤍🔥
best TV ive ever seen i think
Can't wait for The Last Dragon
I love Sense & Sensibility and I'm not afraid to say it. Most ardently. Looking forward to the YT version
GoT is coming!
Can’t wait for these two GOT episodes
i couldn't sleep after watching-just REELING could not stop thinking about it
