Nonono...."Once Upon a Time in the West" is superior
It’s over and Best in Show has won. OUaTitW is a good movie, but the right film won, imo.
It won't get an edit IMO....I don't see many views on YT. This is now the dilemma for Cassie, what can get reasonable YT views when dealing with lesser known films. Edits cost money.
Hopefully Cassie likes Best in Show and we get to Waiting for Guffman down the road
That's two movies that will die on YT, lol.
We've had sword fights, classics, and westerns in the not too distant past. When have we had a dog show? I'm okay with this.

Taylor sheridan: Wind River, Siccario, Hell or High water
I love Sicario. My favorite Denis Villeneuve movie. Here is her full reaction. https://www.patreon.com/posts/sicario-2015-122928220 She has seen Hell or High Water (good movie).
Some people like movies, some people like telling others what are better movies.
Also, some people like giving their opinions on movies, and other people like taking those opinions as a personal insult.
You will miss the "Either what we hold to be right, and good, and true IS right and good and true for all mankind under God, or we're just another robber tribe."
I don't understand how any of these films could be voted on over wind river...
Other people don’t feel the same about Wind River as you do? Personally never saw WR, so I couldn’t vote for it. But it would have to be really crazy great for me to vote for it over Best in Show.
Current Requests Ranking of the 8 movies that were in the semifinals. All are Top 100. The poll was sourced from the Requests Top 100. Charade – #5 Best in Show – #10 Wind River – #12 The English Patient – #15 Once Upon a Time in the West – #22 First Knight – #74 Phenomenon – #82 Driving Miss Daisy – #96 https://beta.popcorninbed.com/requests?tab=all-requests
It’s almost like their position on the list and overall popularity are two separate things. This doesn’t surprise me at all.
Was hoping for the western, but it looks like things have "Gone to the dogs" , as they say lol
I don’t have a dog in this fight, and I should probably let sleeping dogs lie, but at the risk of being in the doghouse, every dog has its day in this dog eat dog world.🐶 Looks like "Best In Show" will be the top dog. Unless there’s time for the big dog to get off the porch. Otherwise, the wrong tree ....we are barking it up 🐕😊
Oooh, that's a good PS.
You have got to watch DRIVING MISS DAISY and THE ENGLISH PATIENT at some point - both amazing. Both Oscar Best Picture Winners. I upvoted both at Requests. Don't really need my priority points because both are already in the Top 100: The English Patient - #15 Driving Miss Daisy - #96 https://beta.popcorninbed.com/requests?tab=my-requests
Also, both quite taste-specific for Cassie. Probably Carly as well, come to think of it.
9 Oscars and 12 nominations. AMazing that English patient could lose to any of these films
This is a popularity contest, not who won the most Oscars. If you put "The English Patient", "The Last Emperor", "Gandhi", "Amadeus", and "Crash" in a poll with "JAWS" or "Star Wars", "JAWS" or "Star Wars" would win.
Dogs!
🤔 😐
Best in Show is the best mockumentary film of all time.
This is Spinal Tap for me.
Dogs are best!
Phenomenon was such a great film! Love John Travolta. Disappointed that's eliminated 😢
Probably the one she would’ve liked the most too.
Frankly, the only movie I would have watched with Cassie is Charade.
I certainly hope this is one of those cases where she watches some of the runner-ups. I've been asking for Charade for 2 years.
Love both Best in Show and Once Upon a Time in the West. Hoping Cassie makes an executive decision and watches both.
I'm almost praying for that. Once Upon A Time in the West needs more help!
dogs dogs
I'll watch either one, but since I don't think *anyone* has ever reacted to "Once Upon a Time...," I'll pull for that one. Plus, I think both "Waiting for Guffman" and "A Mighty Wind" are better than "Best in Show."
Although mocumentaries are not really my thing (except for Spinal Tap!), I agree that the first 'Waiting for Guffman' (1996) is the best of the Christopher Guest directed bunch. ( But again, Rob Reiner's 1984 is really the first & best! ). :)
Wind river is a must watch.. just beautiful.
I'm sure Cassie will watch that eventually. It's a good movie.
Of all these movies in this Bracket, in addition to the winner (and yes, 'Once Upon a Time in the West' is a real classic), I would also highly recommend watching * WIND RIVER * for a good Popcorn In Bed experience! It's an early Taylor Sheridan film (Yellowstone, etc., Sicario, Lioness, more), with a good "Marvel" cast in serious roles, and a great 'detective' drama based on TRUE stories. "Wind River" is a real, Native American reservation in western Wyoming, not far from - Yellowstone.
Was I the only one who thought Best in Show had a bit of a mean streak running through it on my first watch? I found it less so when I saw it years later, but maybe I was a bit biased having worked for a show dog breeder when I was 12 (Saint Bernards).
I worked at a dog show many years ago while in my early twenties. I thought it was pretty spot on about how nutty a lot of dog show people are.
I have no bloody clue how this works.
Hi Robert, can you access this page?: https://beta.popcorninbed.com/bracket If so, make sure you are signed in by clicking "Sign In" in the top right corner of the page. Tip: Then please select "continue with Patreon" to login. Once you have logged in, click on the film you want in the center of the page (Picture shown in the post above). The two films in contention are above the word "Final".
Nope, neither one worth watching.
these choices all feel like movies you'd watch in a hospital or some waiting room where time never moves. really disappointing
Would it be a spoiler to explain Best in Show's genre?
I don’t see how. The actual definition of a spoiler is giving away a key plot point or the end of the movie. As long as you don’t say too much about it or give away the jokes I don’t see a problem with explaining the genre.
You have gottttttt to watch Wind River at some point - it’s amazing
Is best in show really going to beat out arguably the best western of all time? Possibly one of the best movies of all time? Wow
I know, right? Once Upon a Time in the West is hailed by many HWood directors as one of the best films ever made. Tarantino said it IS the best film ever made, and hence his homage to it in his most recent effort's title. Also, how anyone can vote against peak Charles Bronson and Jason Robards, and Claudia Cardinale at her very best is beyond me.
Dogs Dogs Dogs
Best in Show 🤓👍
Dogs. Dog Show 100%
I can't believe First Knight lost to Beat in Show. TRAVESTY
