Thank you for the Poppies great show, that was so cool that you had other reactors on! I second Battlestar Galactica (2003) at least the mini-series. Why? the great character development, mainly Gaius Baltar & Number Six, (Tricia Helfer) her best role personally my fav! Even the re-casting of 'Starbuck' quickly won me over! Love stories all over too :) Warning if you watch the mini-series, you will want more!
Just a video off YouTube that has many clips from musicals dancing to uptown funk. Great showcase for these talents. Hope you will recognize some of the scenes. https://youtu.be/M1F0lBnsnkE?si=YeEQmHWSKE7WaEYu
Cassie & Carly, thank you for a fun filled day at The Poppies. Cassie, we were sorry to see the Jelly Belly try to kill you, but you came back like a champion. Carly, you filled me with joy when you had "The Game" on your Best Picture list. I didn't know you enjoyed it that much. Of all the reactions in 2023, I thought that "The Game" was the best reaction of the year! "Crimson Tide" was number two. Thanks again for all the fun. Best wishes.
Please Gosh no Battlestar Galactica, my friend who actually likes Star Trek thinks Battlestar Galactica is bad and waaay too Sci-fi worse than Dr. Who. Please no JFK that movie is nothing more than a pack of lies. Oliver Stone is a awesome film maker. You said in Lincoln how you like how movies show you the past. Well Oliver Stone takes you back to events, people, and speeches that never took place. With JFK he blurred the line between real footage and fake footage so badly you can't tell the difference. Anyway the only thing I am going to recommend is Sharon Tate movies or black history movies. Malcolm X with Denzel Washington directed by Spike Lee. Detroit (2017) which I gave you. Movie takes place during the Detroit Riots. If you want to experience the 90's. Over on YouTube is a documentary called LA 92 about the L.A. riots.
Random thoughts on the Poppies- Captain Ron is a Carly movie. Love the Cassie swearing montage. Western recommendations- Lightning Jack (1994) and Cherokee Kid (1996) both on the comedy side of Westerns. Battlestar Gallatica (2003)- Please no. It is good (at least the first three seasons), but it is 63, hour long episodes and a movie. Teacher movie recommendation- Stand and Deliver (1988). A "based on a true story" movie about a high school math teacher. From Wikipedia, "In December 2011, Stand and Deliver was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the United States Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the National Film Registry." Tuskegee Airmen - Yes! Great movie, it should definitely be added. edit- (missed my last note) With Carly "singing" the theme song, Batman - The Movie (1966) needs a reaction
Battlestar Gallatica (2003) - the mini-series is good enough!
Story for Carly- When I was younger, I mowed grass for somebody's camp and could get anything I wanted to drink from his outside fridge. Finished up one day, grabbed a pop/soda, opened the lid... I WON tickets to the NBA Finals!!! I won a trip to see Jordan in the Finals! Get home and call the number to claim my prize... the contest ended the day before.
Oh!!! How about some non-english movies from Europe??? You mentioned that in your live show. It's been a while. Like 27 months or so?? 🫠😄🤩😇 This will be fun 🙂

Came across the Poppies just in time to hear yall are going to do Silverado (yes!). I love watching yalls reactions, it's like getting a crib notes on movies (Y
Silverado!!!
The wait is killing me. I've already refreshed YouTube about a bajillion times.
Wasn’t sure if I missed something or not. I was about to check Discord. I assume there there would be a link dropped here or it would show up on YouTube right? I know She is having Difficulties anyways to say the least.
I can't even watch "A Walk to Remember" without feeling sad for the entirety of the movie nowadays.
You should consider watching Sicario or Wind River
Both good. Sicario is excellent. I saw Wind River in the theater. At popcornrequests.com Sicario is ranked No. 27 with 70 requests. Wind River is ranked No. 102 with 38 requests.
My recommendations for Action Movie's are: 1. Commando (1985) 2. Aliens 2 3. Apocalypse Now (1979) 4. Am Officer and a Gentleman (1981) Starship Troopers (1997)
Apocalypse Now (1979) is a masterpiece. An Officer and a Gentleman (1981) is a classic. At popcornrequests.com Apocalypse Now (1979) is ranked No. 45 with 56 requests. An Officer and a Gentleman (1981) is ranked No. 37 with 63 requests.
What about Oscar winning and nominated films from 1927 through to the 70s or even 80s. There will be plenty of films Cassie has never seen before. And I think the PIB community will have fun selecting movies from those many different polls.
In the topic of war movies, I would suggest "The Dirty Dozen" or "Kelly's Heroes". both are fine movies.
Kelly’s Heroes gets my vote. It’s way more entertaining imo.
Gallipoli with Mel Gibson a WW1 movie or danger close with Travis Fimmel a Vietnam movie
The Lighthorsemen is an amazing movie
Some Australian war movies.
Ha ha The Best movie of all time. 1946 The Best Years of Our Lives . Thanks --
I am, of course, available for MC duties 😁😁
If Arachnophobia does not win best jump scare by a landslide, then I don’t know what everyone else is watching.
My feelings exactly.
"The Inner Light", easily the best Star Trek Next Generation episode
Hard disagree! Chain of Command!
Next poll for heists you could add Dead Heat on a Merrygoround, there's a surprise in it you'd d love. Main guy in it is James Coburn, the Australian who got to Spain in the Great Escape and the cool professional in the Mag 7.
If you get in the mood for another musical Romcoms, I suggest You were never lovelier with Fred Astaire and Rita Hayworth, the ending will make you think back to White Christmas.
Please watch Attack the Block with Carly.
If you want to see a movie with everything try checking out Scaramouche 1952 movie with Stewart Granger, Janet Leigh, Eleanor Parker. old but well worth watching.
You really should put Random Harvest on a poll. Better yet just watch it with Carly. One of the most touching romantic movies ever made.
I don't know if subtitles are a turn off for you, but I highly Highly recommend a Korean drama called 'Guardian: The Lonely and Great God'. You can find it on VIKI - https://www.viki.com/tv/31706c-guardian-the-lonely-and-great-god#episodes. Both you and your sister will love it.
Carol, this is your one and only warning. Another outburst like this (you've had several already) and you're gone. -Ben
I need to recommend 3 rom coms, LA Story, Defending your life and Sideways. They are magical.
Defending Your Life is GREAT!
I just finished watching Dune again. I might watch it again before seeing part 2 next week. I hear great things about part 2. I looking forward to watching your reaction. From what I hear, I think you're going to have to watch it on the big screen like Part One. Did you ever finish the book?
Is there a Best Movie President award... (Dave).
Awards now are for woke ness, not ability.
Sad and true. It is no longer about artistic merit.
I’d much rather watch the Poppies than any of the yearly award shows on network TV that just seem to anger me more than entertain me.
I used to love watching the Oscars & Golden Globes, but it's just not fun anymore. Also, awards are not given out for artistic merit anymore.
I feel like YouTubers especially enjoy doing award-type shows. From Mkbhd to the everyday astronaut. It brings you all such joy 😂
Watching Cassie and Carlys Mom and Pop pretend to be them (and their reactions to it) was one of the funniest things from last years Poppies :)
Little Miss Sunshine did not get nominated for Best Comedy Reaction? Sad.
Cassie proving she's a better film critic than Carly - "LotR is waaaaaaay than Harry Potter!"
Kat from KatWatchesHorrorMovies would be a great cameo for the horror or better yet, the jumpscare category.
I recently started watching Kat Watches Horror Movies. Oh my, she is hilarious. It's almost like watching Mystery Science Theatre 3000.
I accidentally put my Poppies comment in the wrong section. Sorry! I'll repeat it here. Ben walking in during Arachnophobia was the best jump scare. He should be the guest presenter for that category. Also, can we vote for him for Best Supporting Actor in a Jump Scare?
He didn't walk in, he was breaking in. Everyone knew after that moment that this would be the odds-on favorite for Best Jump Scare.
Special Cameos? OH MY GOD! TOM CRUISE IS COMING TO THE POPPIES!!! Ok, maybe not! 😂
That would make this whole poppie thing palatable
She reacted to several good westerns in 2023.
One older one she may like is John Ford’s FORT APACHE. It transcended stereotypes for its time and treats the Apaches and other tribes as much more than cut-outs. It also shows the realities and pitfalls of arrogance and assumptions by senior command officers. You could tell Ford had seen war (in his case WWII) up close in this film.
Great channel been watching from the start, a Co host with Natalie gold would be awesome.
She presented an award last year. While I do like Natalie, I think she would be a bit too much as a co host.
I hope Scream wins in its category if for no other reason than I simply want Cassie to watch the rest of the franchise. 🙏🏻 She can definitely handle these movies. She barely jumped in the reaction which is why I didn’t vote that as the best jump scare - which was Arachnophobia hands down. 😂
I'd rather she watch some good horror movies instead.
Very excited for this. Found this channel last fall, so this is my first opportunity to vote and watch the awards!
You should watch the Poppie Awards from the past, they are fun watches.
Does this include package opening?🤔 I sent something and would love to watch it get opened live.
a live package opening will be a week or two after the poppies and thank you!
I wonder who the guest presenters will be this year?
I'm hoping for that Tom guy that got to meet them in New York.
Can’t beat that jump scare from arachnophobia. If felt like I laughed for an hour.
If you liked that jump scare, check out her jump scare in Poltergeist. I can’t decide which one was better.
OK, i just checked on Google, 2PM MST is 9pm in UK time. Thanks Cassie! That's a good time for me, I stayed up early hours for the last trivia night. No complaints, I really enjoyed taking part!
We have it on record from Cassie. The Lord of the Rings is "Waaaaaay better than Harry Potter." Atta girl!
And I agree, though they're really each in their own lane, HP is great adventure and a great story but LOTR is just a masterpiece and will stand up for generations.
I think it's kind of hilarious that Zombieland is in the scary category 😆 And I would have voted for It for best horror then the jumpscare comp reminded me that she took her earbud/s out multiple times 😡 Dodged that bullet 🫡 And the fact that the best jumpscare didn't actually come from the movie 🤦
I’d rather see more movies
Where's the "Best Carly reaction" category?
My birthday !!
You should get ‘Reacts With Jax’ to be a presenter. Shes awesome.
That’s a great suggestion! Jax is another great reactor.
