Upadoodle

Shadow of A Doubt by Alfred Hitchcock. He considered it his finest film.

Raunchy comedy...I fear this channel is going in the wrong direction.

House of the Dragon S3 was Excellent, especially the finale

I noticed that CineBinge got 295K views on the movie Clerks 2, no idea why (haha).

Hot take I guess, I’m excited for Cassie’s OBAA reaction 🤷‍♂️

While "Obsession" is a bit overrated, it has shown to be a very entertaining option for reactors, and I'm sure Cassie will not disappoint. Cassie, for Black & White Movies I want to recommend: The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) The Lost World (1925) The Phantom of the Opera (1925) Dracula (1931) without the Philip Glass soundtrack Svengali (1931) The Mummy (1932) The Old Dark House (1932) Island of Lost Souls (1932) The Invisible Man (1933) Son of Kong (1933) The Wolf Man (1941) Cat People (1942) I Walked With A Zombie (1943) The Leopard Man (1943) The 7th Victim (1943) Shadow of a Doubt (1943) Laura (1944) Isle of the Dead (1945) The Body Snatcher (1945) Notorious (1946) Mighty Joe Young (1949) The Third Man (1949) The Thing (1951) Strangers on a Train (1951) The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms (1953) THEM! (1954) On the Waterfront (1954) The Night of the Hunter (1955) Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) 20 Million Miles To Earth (1957) The Defiant Ones (1958) Judgment At Nuremberg (1961) Cape Fear (1962) Lilies of the Field (1963) Night of the Living Dead (1968) Ed Wood (1994) The Artist (2011)

A newer B + W movie from the year 2020 that I think you will love is called “C’mon C’mon”

B&W Poll suggestion: The Man Who Wasn't There

Hello Invasion of the Body Snatchers 1956

For a Black and White Movie Poll I would suggest The Phantom of the Opera from 1925. A classic story from the Golden age of Hollywood. You can't go wrong with that in my opinion. I don't know if that has already been done but that is the best suggestion I could think of.

My two Black and White movie picks: Citizen Kane (1941) and Ed Wood (1994)

Black & White films; classic The Bride of Frankenstein The Creature From the Black Lagoon Them! Invasion of the Body Snatchers (56) Night of the Living Dead (68) Black & White films; modern Paper Moon Raging Bull Clerks The Lighthouse

B&w pick: High Noon

Seeing all these great black and white movies mentioned, we could have an entire PIB month dedicated to it and still have plenty left

Has anyone mentioned Marty (1955) for black and white movie? A romantic movie Cassie would enjoy. It won many Oscars including Best Picture

The Elephant Man is also a black and white movie worth considering

Dial M for Murder for black and white movie

What a week ahead! Fun, fun and fun! Also B&W suggestions: The Kid (1921) Charlie Chaplin The General (1926) Buster Keaton Wings (1927) *1st Academy Awards best picture winner* Ninotchka (1939) Greta Garbo The Maltese Falcon (1941) Humphrey Bogart Citizen Kane (1941) Orson Welles first feature film at age 25 (co-wrote, directed and starred)

I am curious how well do you think Cassie could handle Fritz Lang’s M?

It is August 2026, and I hereby advocate for *that* version of The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996). [#020] Dedicated to Richard Maurer. I'm quite confident the twentieth time will be the charm, as this month we celebrate* the thirtieth anniversary of its release. * Or as RM would put it: ""celebrate."" :-)

For raunchy maybe "Take Me Home Tonight"? Not a classic, but I think underrated

Black & White poll suggestions: Pre 1950: The Kid (1921) - One of Chaplin's best. You said you wanted to watch a Chaplin. Big Business (1929) - A brilliant Laurel & Hardy silent. Freaks (1932) - a fascinating insight into the world of real circus "oddities" Post 1950: A Hard Day's Night (1964). OBVIOUSLY, it has the best soundtrack ever. High Noon (1952) - Legendary western, co-starring Grace Kelly. On The Waterfront and Streetcar Named Desire, with tour de force performances by a young Marlon Brando. Somebody Up There Likes Me (1956) - Good biopic of middlewight boxing champ Rocky Graziana. Paul Newman's first hit film, with a cameo by a then-unknown Steve McQueen. Reach For The Sky (1956) - True story of legendary British World War 2 pilot, Douglas Bader, who lost his legs before the war but still ended up.....(you'll have to watch it to find out) The Hustler (1961) - a young Paul Newman as a pool shark. Leads directly to the 1986 remake, Color of Money, starring Paul and Tom Cruise. Hud (1963) - You think Paul Newman is on your Mount Rushmore now. This film almost turned me curious. Stir Crazy (1979) - Richard Pryor is black, Gene Wilder is white. The Elephant Man (1981) - Incredible true story, starring Anthony Hopkins and John Hurt

A Hard Day's Night (yes, I'm one of the people who suggests it in PAF every month!) And while it's true that it may be necessary to whittle it down considerably for YouTube, there are a lot of Beatle fans out there, and you may get a lot of views anyway.

Session is just another sick and deeply twisted attempt at Horror typical from Hollywood these days. They shouldn't even call it Harbor anymore Macabre and demonic I thought you didn't like demonic. Well you might as well watch the exorcist you're a big girl now and the exercises thoughtful and has a Little bit of a positive spiritual message and warning. William Peter Blatty he was a seminary student deals with material intelligently until the climax............ And Carly can't watch it under no circumstances she had just has that personality

I'll make three suggestions for excellent black and white movies that I have never seen reacted to or even put on polls: "Journey for Margaret" (1942), "The Pied Piper" (1942), and "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" (1931)

Black and White Movie Suggestions: Good Night, and Good Luck (2005), Nebraska (2013), Sunset Boulevard (1950), Manhattan (1979), Ed Wood (1994), Mank (2020), Pi (1998) and The Maltese Falcon (1941).

Welcome home again! Every single time I see that Andor poster I immediately mistake it for Interstellar for some reason. Not sure why.

On the Waterfront for black and white

I can't see the poll but can someone tell me if American Pie is at least listed as an option? 😂

For the poll: The Third Man, The Maltese Falcon, Wings of Desire. I would have included Rashomon, but saw it won the Pick a Flick. 🥰

Great week. Always up for Andor for sure. One Battle was tough for me but is great filmmaking. I saw Obsession in the theater earlier this week. Wild.

All man Obsession is gonna be interesting. You should watch Smile & Weapons first IMO I think they are all connected in some way

For Black and White poll: --Good Night, and Good Luck (2005) --Dead Man (1995) [Johnny Depp] --The Last Picture Show (1971) [Jeff Bridges] [AFI Top 100] --Paper Moon (1973) --Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966) [AFI Top 100]

I don't care I'm gonna be the fool that says it; we need Cassie to repeat her Star Trek rounds. A few classic Kirk episodes, and 3 or 4 episodes per season of NexGen w/Picard! It'll drawwwww in massive viewership....XD

Hey Cassie, suggestions for older B&W movies: Harvey (1950) The Thin Man (1934) Higher and Higher (1943)

I love Doodles. I was watching Christian Harloff show his female for instance the first grade Sam Andor, and every episode started with a tweedle deedle.

I take it shes running late

Nah, obsession is not Halloween material. Just a documentary of modern dating gone wrong

For B&W: Bicycle Thieves; The Set-Up; Sorry, Wrong Number; Umberto D.; The Killing; Summer with Monika; Sunset Boulevard; Touch of Evil; Pickup on South Street; Monsieur Hulot's Holiday; Sabrina; Pit Stop; Letter Never Sent

Older black and white suggestions, mostly romantic comedies but some drama and noir too: - Sunset Boulevard (1950) - A Raisin in the Sun (1961) - High and Low (1963) - Only Angels Have Wings (1939) - History Is Made at Night (1937) - Sullivan's Travels (1941) - Ball of Fire (1941) - Red River (1948) - The Lady Eve (1941) - To Be or Not to Be (1942)

Is there a link for the live?

For B&W films The Elephant Man (1980) The Longest Day (1962) Path Of Glory (1957) All Quiet On The Western Front (1930) Ice Cold In Alex (1958)

Inherit the Wind (1960) and/or Judgment at Nuremberg (1961)

oh sorry .. read that wrong.. it was season 1

Wait.. what happened to episodes 7-9?

B&W Movie: 1943: The More the Merrier

The Maltese Falcon for the B&W poll.

Absolutely incredible week that will make for incredible reactions. As for black and white I guess the obvious choice is Citizen Kane

Glad you are back safe and somewhat sound. Trivia should be fun. I will start looking up the color of various people's shorts. Lots of great suggestions here already for the black and white poll. Never smart to count out those 4 lads from Liverpool if their debut film makes the cut. Maybe better to reserve it for a future war film poll but, "From Here to Eternity" (1953) is a black and white Oscar winning film. Also, nobody wearing shorts in that one. 😊

Hi Cassie, Here’s a list of classic black-and-white movies that I think both you and the group would really enjoy. I also think they’d make for some great YouTube reactions and discussions. 1. Beyond Tomorrow (1940) (also released as Beyond Christmas) 2. My Darling Clementine (1946) 3. Stalag 17 (1953) 4. The Pride of the Yankees (1942) 5. Sabrina (1954) 6. An Affair to Remember (1957) Just a few ideas from an old movie fan!

Trying to patiently wait for Shin Godzilla

B&W poll: The Maltese Falcon The Big Sleep To Have and Have Not

Pygmalion (1938) Gaslight (1944) The Seventh Seal (1957) Yojimbo (1961) Alice in Wonderland (1933)

Also, Diabolique (1955). Foreign film and B&W. Very good Hitchcock-style film.

For a more modern black and white film, I highly recommend Wings of Desire {1987). It's a beautiful film.

OK, Cassie, because you asked B&W joy! All of these are approved as Carly Safe™: "His Girl Friday" 1940 (Cary Grant, the incredible Rosalind Russell in THE original screwball comedy, directed by the very nimble Howard Hawks) "Lifeboat" 1944 (Hitchcock during WWII, nuff said) "To Have and Have Not" 1944 " (Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall) "Notorious" 1946 (Hitchcock, Cary Grant, Ingrid Bergman) "The Big Sleep" 1946 (Bogart, Bacall and Martha Vickers stealing every scene she's in) "The Verdict" (Peter Lorre and Sidney Greenstreet in a movie about judicial and police corruption) "The Bishop's Wife" 1947 (Cary Grant) "Key Largo" 1948 (Bogart going against type, Bacall and Edward G Robinson) "Red River" 1948 (John Wayne in a role that makes his character in "The Searchers" look mellow) "Fort Apache" 1948 (John Ford, John Wayne Henry Fonda in one of the first films to treat Native Americans—specifically the Apaches—with respect). "12 O'Clock High" 1949 (Gregory Peck in film that became a template) "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" 1949 (John Wayne as someone Cassie wants to be her grandpa in a war film that's an antiwar film) "The Third Man" 1949 (Orson Wells and a lot of suspense) Also, post 1950s not named above: "Street Car Named Desire" 1951 (The film that MADE Brando a star) "Strangers on a Train" 1951 (Hitchcock) "Monkey Business" 1952 (Cary Grant in Howard Hawks' "Bringing Up Baby" style screwball comedy) "On the Waterfront" (Brando) "Paths of Glory" 1957 (Seminal Stanley Kubrick without excess) "Wings of Desire" 1987 (Wim Wenders masterpiece about angels)

Black and White poll suggestion (without knowing if you've reacted to them yet, lazy on research today) High Noon The Maltese Falcon Citizen Cane. See you this evening for Pic a Flick!

The Sea Hawk. The Grapes of Wrath. The Miracle Worker. Inherit the Wind. To Kill a Mockingbird. These are ones that I remember watching as a kid that made an impression on me.

Much Ado About Nothing (2012, Cassie will love it. Cherry on top: It co-stars Nathan Fillion and Sean Mahar from Firefly)

B&W suggestion: "Seven Days in May". A good political thriller

Black and white: Judgment at Nuremberg

Post 1960 B&W films: The Miracle Worker (1962) Based on the true story of Helen Keller, blind, deaf and mute, who learns to communicate due to her indomitable teacher, Annie Sullivan. Sign language became common after this film. The Elephant Man (1980) David Lynch directed this strange and poignant film based on the life of John Merrick, called the Elephant Man because of his physical deformities. Anthony Hopkins played the compassionate doctor who rescued Merrick from the cruelty of the circus, treating him with dignity and respect. Ed Wood (1994) Humorous biopic of the bizarre, low production director played by Johnny Depp.

Black & White: Inherit the Wind(1960) High Noon(1952) Fail Safe(1964)

Black and white movie: The Artist!!

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" (1962) Fail Safe (1964) Seven Days in May (1964) On the Beach (1959)

B&W suggestions: Sweet Smell of Success Random Harvest His Girl Friday Brief Encounter Seven Days in May Odd Man Out

Can you imagine Cassie watching Little Nicky... That would be epic.

Old B&W: Double Indemnity (1944) His Girl Friday (1940) Stagecoach (1939) Notorious (1946) Witness for the Prosecution (1957) Newer B&W: The Artist (2011) Nebraska (2013) Ed Wood (1994) Clerks (1994) Paper Moon (1973)

Obsession? YUK!!! That movie is the prime example of why I'm glad I'm single lol! As for that Raunchy Comedy Poll, the only one(s) I'm voting for is Tropic Thunder and Little Nicky, the rest of those movies, some I used to like, but started to age like moldy cheese, while a few others on there I actually hate because I say to myself "why", as in why did these movies ever get made, I most especially hate a certain movie that has the number 40 in the title! Though there is one scene and one scene only that does make me laugh, but the rest of that movie, forget it! As for black and white movie suggestions, well, I can name a few, though I cannot say in terms of oldest to newest! I would suggest maybe a few of the Universal Monster movies, but I'd suggest to save that for Halloween season! So, the only B&W movies that I can suggest for you to put on a poll are the ones that I personally have under my "requests" on your website and they are as follows: . "The Man Who Shot Liberty Vallance" (62) . "Sergeant York" (41) . "Abbott & Costello meet Frankenstein" (48) . "Mighty Joe Young" (49) . "The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms" (53) . "The Canterville Ghost" (44) Any one of those would be good for your poll(s)! Though the ones that I really would love to see you react to are The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, which is the movie that inspired the creation of Godzilla just one year later! And of course one of my dad's favorites, which is now one of my favorites, The Canterville Ghost, that movie you will absolutely love, I guarantee it! Anyway, glad you made it back safely, I'm probably not going to partake in the PAF drawing tonight, I just know I'm gonna lose anyway lol! Take care, love and support, you and Carly are the best, and God bless y'all and the family🥰😇🙏🤗😉✌🌹

I couldn't resist a long list - the first half have romance and more, and 2 are Buster Keaton (who hasn't been discovered by Cassie)... The Thin Man (1934) The Mark of Zorro (1940) Adams Rib (1949) City Lights (1931) The General (1926) Steamboat Bill Jr. (1928) Stagecoach (1939) Shadow of a Doubt (1943) Double Indemnity (1944) The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948) Stormy Weather (1943) D.O.A. (1950) On The Waterfront (1954)

You're sooooo not ready for ep 8 of Andor. Maybe one of the greatest episodes of tv ever. Ep 9 not far behind in quality

Cassie, next reunion....5-star cabin...lol.

THE LINEUP (1958) Film Noir crime drama LAURA (1944) Film Noir Murder Mystery SUNSET BOULEVARD (1950)

This is the best week of my life.

B&W movies: Comedy: "A Night at the Opera" staring the Marx Brothers Western: "The Man who Shot Liberty Valance" with John Wayne & Jimmy Stewart Classic: "Citizen Kane" with Orson Welles. One of the greatest movies ever, but it really did nothing for me. Sci/Horror: "The Thing from Another World". The one and the original with the great character actor, Kenneth Tobey (you've seen him in a movie, he's been in over 226 movies or shows in his long career)

Looking forward to watching the new episodes of Andor that just dropped. 🍿

For Black and White Poll: Hud (1963) - Honest, hard-working Texas rancher Homer Bannon has a conflict with his unscrupulous, selfish, arrogant, egotistical son Hud. Starring Paul Newman The Last Picture Show (1971) - In 1951, a group of high schoolers come of age in a bleak, isolated, atrophied North Texas town that is slowly dying, both culturally and economically. Starring Jeff Bridges, Cybil Shepherd, Timothy Bottoms Judgment at Nuremberg (1961) - Fictionalized depiction of the 1947 Judges' Trial, the third of 12 trials of Nazi war criminals conducted by the American occupying forces in Nuremberg, Germany, in which former judges of Nazi Germany were tried for their actions. Starring Spencer Tracy, Burt Lancaster, Richard Widmark Inherit the Wind (1960) - Based on a real-life case in 1925; two great lawyers argue the case for, and against, a Tennessee science teacher accused of the crime of teaching Darwin's theory of evolution. Starring Spencer Tracy, Frederic March, Gene Kelly

I keep forgetting the time difference between where Cassie is and the UK. It’s in a little over 3 hours, right???

Harvey is a great movie with Jimmy Stewart.

Do film noir! So many great choices like: Double Indemnity (1944) The Maltese Falcon (1941) Laura (1944) Sunset Boulevard (1950) The Sweet Smell of Success (1957) and lots more.

Apprehensive about Obsession. I don’t like horror movies all that much.

Welcome back, Cassie. I actually experienced the same phenomenon. I was staying in Frankfurt am Main on a hotel boat for two weeks. I needed roughly a week to get used to the rocking bed every time another ship passed, and then another week wondering why the bed wasn’t moving anymore. ;-) Concerning the lineup you’ve got for us and your new raunchy-movie poll, somehow Clint Eastwood keeps whispering in my ear: “Do you think she feels lucky, punk?” ;-) Can you please somehow hold off on releasing the reaction to Obsession until after August 11? That movie isn’t available over here before then. :-( And I haven’t seen One Battle After Another yet, so watching it together with you will be fun. And finally, two suggestions for your black-and-white movie poll. I’ll go with two courtroom-themed movies: Paths of Glory (1957) Inherit the Wind (1960) Looking forward to the things to come.

B&W • MAN IN THE WHITE SUIT (1951) • KISS ME DEADLY (1955)

B&W before the 60’s: Notorious (1946) Hitchcock, with a sizzling espionage-romance between Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman. Wuthering Heights (1939) Laurence Olivier as wounded Heathcliff becoming vengeful Heathcliff. Mrs. Miniver (1942) WWII from the perspective of an English housewife dealing with bombings, son in the Royal Air Force and husband participating in the Dunkirk rescue. Witness for the Prosecution (1957) Courtroom drama of a murder case with Charles Laughton, Marlene Dietrich and Tyrone Power. City Lights (1931) Silent classic by Charlie Chaplin, great humor and tenderness. Sunset Boulevard (1950) William Holden (you saw him in Bridge on the River Kwai) as a struggling writer who meets a faded silent film star (Gloria Swanson) who wants him to write a script for her comeback.

2 black and white movie with Cary Grant I'd also like to throw out there are Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House (1948) and Notorious (1946)

American History X.

B&W movies in the Top 100 on leaderboard: ELEPHANT MAN (1980) DOUBLE INDEMNITY (1944) MARTY (1955) CITIZEN KANE (1944) BIG SLEEP (1946)

Black and White movie poll suggestions. No genre of filmmaking takes better advantage of black and white photography than film noir. I recommend: Maltese Falcon The Big Sleep Key Largo Touch of Evil (my personal fave) Sweet Smell of Success Sunset Boulevard Double Indemnity The Asphalt Jungle In A Lonely Place For more recent films, I recommend: The Man Who Wasn’t There Raging Bull Good Night, and Good Luck A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night Broadway Danny Rose Stranger Than Paradise

Re: black and white movies, my PaF has been "Random Harvest" (1942) forever. Greer Garson and Lawrence Olivier. I'm certain Cassie would love it.

Please correct me if I am wrong. It is saying Andor S2: 7-9 but I have not see the post for 4-6?

Another great week of reactions to come, I enjoyed Obsession at the cinema recently, Not seen OBAA but hopefully people can behave themselves in the comment section this time. I'll be about for both lives, lots of entries for PaF tonight & that Raunchy poll is gonna be good fun, hopefully we get a few reactions out of it.

Double Indemnity (1944), Sunset Boulevard (1950) and A Place in the Sun (1951) are all black and white movies on AFI'S top 100 of all time

Some recommendations for the black and white poll!! 1. Notorious by Hitchcock (starring Cary Grant) 2. Paths of Glory (Stanley Kubrick WWI film) 3. Out of the Past (best old Hollywood noir) 4. Frances Ha (for modern b+w)

An older black white movie might be 1942s Yankee Doodle Dandy, the story of of how George m Cohan became the King of Broadway (musicals)

Oof, Obsession made me sooo mad.

Black and White: Metropolis, Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Raging Bull

For B/W poll “Panic in The Year Zero” 1962

And of course the OG Black and White movie City Lights (1931). It's that silent movie you've been wanting to see

Hey, when are we getting The Whole Wide World (1996) on YouTube?

B & W movie. Born Yesterday (1950). Such an underrated romcom

Black & White suggestions: All About Eve (Drama, 1954), Cluny Brown (Romantic Comedy, 1946), Double Indemnity (Noir, 1944), The Lady Eve (Romantic Comedy, 1941), Out of the Past (Noir, 1947.

Obsession! 🙌

I couldn’t ask for a better lineup of movies and TV this week. The best show and movie of 2025, along with the best surprise of the year with Obsession.

Looking forward to One Battle After Another, Obsession & Pacific Rim 😀.

Raging Bull (1980) and Days of Wine and Roses (1962) I'd like to suggest for Black and White movies

B&W suggestion. The Hustler (1961)

B&W RECOMMENDS: for Noir: Sunset Boulevard and Double Indemnity and The Third Man are all excellent. I would also strongly recommend Night of the Hunter as a beautiful B&W that is a little scary but not too scary...sort of early serial killer stuff.

B&W suggestion. Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966)

For old B&W movie I would highly recommend Fritz Lang’s Metropolis from 1927 the Kino Lober Complete Metropolis version, the editing and set designs are truly mind blowing

Cant wait until the obsession obsession is over

Cassie, for a black and white movie FROM TH E 1960s , you'd kill two birds with one stone by watching the Beatles in a Hard Day's Night, as there are usually a couple of requests on PAF for it

Glad you had fun Cassie. For the black and white Im going to have to go with the OG "Psycho" by Alfred Hitchcock! A classic everyone should see once. AND also, though I dont celebrate Christmas, it's a movie I watch every Christmas, and you may have seen it too Cassie - "A Christmas Carol" (1951)

This August heat is what makes me dizzy. Dizzy and stocked up on Italian ice and watermelon lol. Glad you enjoyed the reunion. For black and white films, I'd prob recommend "The Maltese Falcon" (1941) , "The Big Sleep" (1946), or "The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre" (1948). All with Humphrey Bogart. Looking forward to obsession. Popcorn In Dread : Summer edition

Oh god. OBAA will be interesting. I was engaged while watching it, but after finishing, don't think I liked the movie that much. Except for Leo giving really funny performance.

LOL the boat sways just mean you had a fun time! 😆 Awesome lineup ahead, so pumped 🙌 thanks, Cassie! Cheers to the weekend everyone 🤘

BLACK AND WHITE MOVIE: THE LIGHTHOUSE

"All About Eve" is the perfect black and white movie. You really need to see a Bette Davis film

So as far as black and white movies anything Charlie Chaplin will be amazing so modern times, The Great dictator. The first one is a silent movie but it is so worth it it's one of the best movies I've ever seen.

For black and white….The Lighthouse 😬

B&W movie poll choice: Clerks

The Lighthouse (2019) for newer B&W

Great week of reactions! All must sees for me.

I’m a born again Christian conservative Trump supporter and I was HIGHLY entertained by OBAA (big PTA fan here)

OBAT is such an overrated movie . Any other new release choice would have been better

Obsession! Proof that in 2026, if you make a good movie, the people WILL show up no matter what the cost or genre.
