AUGUST PICK A FLICK DRAW
Come join the pick-a-flick draw!
The actual draw happened here because of all the technical difficulties: https://youtube.com/live/5-L5Ap9U-zM?feature=share
Sorry about that guys! Ben feels bad. He said he'll make sure it's working properly for next time.
Also, congrats to our wonderful mod @JonJohns for winning pick-a-flick this month!!! He chose: Rashomon (1950)
And before some of you claim it's rigged, mods go through the exact same process as everyone else with PaF. Plus, this was drawn through wheel of names because we couldn't get PaF to work... Congrats Jon!

Apologies. I just now downloaded patron, and just upgraded membership. How do I recommend a movie?

UGH!! American movies aren’t good enough ?
That’s what this channel lacks - American movies.
Did I win?
Maybe
Ben shouldn't feel bad, he works hard for the channel and technical difficulties can occur with all that technical stuff you have going on.
Cassie!!! If TROPIC THUNDER wins, pleaseee do the unrated cut 🙏🙏
Congrats Jon
Congratulations, Jon. A classic pick.
I like when Zoro calls out the gate to the underworld in his named attack 😊 " Iai ittoryu Rashomon! " (Zoro is the "bushido" character in One Piece)
hey I saw my corrected DVD cover for my pick so that's nice... Thanks for fixing it! ✊🙂 let's add drooling face 🤤😇
Wild ride with all the audio and video glitches. It still was a great first time experience for me watching you pick a flick.
Jon Jons! Well played, sir!
OK missy mop, you just committed a cardinal PiB sin and you need to be sanctioned. I couldn't watch the Pick-a-Flick last night cos....ya know....middle of the night an' all, so I opened the vid today excited to find out which movie won. Now, of course - a HUGE part of the fun of this is watching the kernels pop and praying to whatever god one believes in that your own kernel will avoid the magic flipper and stay till the end. Or failing that, that one of the other picks picked would be a pick you would've picked yourself if you had multiple picks. It's all in the suspense, you know. That being the case, I was EXTREMELY dischuffed to open the video and find a huge great poster pic announcing which film won! How the very could you!! What are you always telling us about spoilers?? You've ruined my day and I may not recover for many minutes. Your penance should be to watch Ali G Inda House before Borat. It would kind of....ahem....ease you in to Sacha the Baron's unique style of comedy.
Agree. Not as fun when you don't have to annoy everyone by asking what won every thirty seconds. Zero drama or suspense in that.
Well, that's your version of what happened, anyway... ;)
If you like the idea of "Street t car named desire" you gotta watch " "On the Waterfront" also but I noticed. "Desk Set "is on your list I recommend that very highly seriously you'll love it Spencer Tracy Katheryn Hepburn . and. "the Song of Achilles". I know it's too late but that's the gay Achilles is an exercise and woke gayness don't waste your read the Iliad instead what are the greatest works of literature in history doesn't need a lousy woke update
If someone had picked On The Waterfront for Pick-a-Flick....it coulda been a contender.
Rashomon is a great film, considered one of the greatest and most influential films ever made. It is also the movie that made US audiences aware that there was more to Japanese cinema than Godzilla. You'll recognize Toshiro Mifune from "Seven Samurai."
Funny you mention Godzilla. Kurosawa was a friend of Godzilla director Ishiro Honda and liked his films, especially Gojira (54). It's rumored that Kurosawa even considered directing a Godzilla film.
Rashomon - certainly a good movie. Wouldn’t have been my second choice but still a good pick.
No YT edit for this one.
I still keep holding out hope that my choice will eventually get picked. Disney's Pete's Dragon from 1977.
I remember the remake to that getting good reviews.
Awesome ! Great Movie
What we had here was a failure to communicate...;-) But it was great fun! Thanks a lot! Great pick! I hope I'll find a suitable copy in time somewhere.
Brilliant choice!
Finally a good pick! One of my all time favorites.
Ooh Rashomon, I haven't seen that in forever, and I don't remember much. Another one sometime to watch is The Hidden Fortress (1958), Akira Kurosawa, Toshiro Mifune, with Misa Uehara as the princess... (as the Leia Organa character)
Tell Ben I know how he feels but we all still had a good time.
Was that Jon John the mod that won?
Yep.
Rashomon (1950)! I may finally get to try out the new player. Any chance of a Ghost Dog - The Way of the Samurai (1999) watch too? There is a Rashomon connection. It's a weak connection, but I like the movie.
Ghost Dog was a better movie than it should have been.
Since the stream is borked- I will reluctantly take on the responsibility of picking the movie- Mr Magoriums Wonder Emporium (2007)
