Up-Data
Heyyyyyoooo party people!! (I write as I lay in my bed)!
Well first of all THANK YOU for coming to/watching/commenting/being a part of the third annual Poppie Awards. It was so fun, my face hurt from smiling and my arms hurt from those ruffles ;) It's crazy because it is so much work but then I remember it's just for fun, to include everyone and celebrate movies and movie lovers. SO THANK YOU!
I wish I could say that I'm no longer sick but this cold is hanging on to my cold dead bones. I almost sound normal again but the second my body is horizontal I start coughing the likes of what you all heard midway through The Poppies loud and clear. I wish so bad you could have seen me on the writhing on the floor coughing up my lungs while trying to rip the mic clipped on to the back of my dress that I could not reach. ANYWAYS! We got dumped on by snow this weekend, right after spring teased us. It hurts, at least the days are stretching out and its not dark at 5pm. My parents are coming to visit this week which I am so excited for, it's been almost six months! Sorry about the snow guys :/
This week I am playing catch up a bit. In the future, I'll space the Star Trek episodes out every other week I think, so we don't have two series as two uploads every week. Episodes 1-2 that I watched LIVE for the Butter Live will be tonight.
I am v. excited about Forever Young with Carly though. I am also going to watch the very close runner up Secretariat and I just read a comment from Carol that it's Sec's birthday this month so even better!
I posted a Poll for a Poll, as someone pointed out very meta I know! It looks like it is between Kurt Russell and Denzel! Both will be great and thanks for all the suggestions in the comments for Actor polls in the future.
We are tentatively planning a package opening LIVE on 3/23 so look out for that!
Ok I think that is it! So much fun to come this month still!
Love your faces
ps-did you get my secret message in the message!

A rare Mel Gibson one that I’ve never seen. Looking forward to the full reaction
At the risk of opening myself to ridicule, does anyone else think Cassie would enjoy Warcraft (2016) and Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023)? Both of those movies take inspiration from Tolkien's works and she did enjoy the LotR and Hobbit trilogies, so I think she would also enjoy those movies.
I haven’t seen Warcraft, but she would definitely love D&D. It’s so charming and funny.
All of this Star Trek content must be how non-Bond fans felt while I was loving all of those. You win some, you lose some. Hope all you Trekkies are having a ball.
The correct attitude to have👏
Getting a new Chevy truck? ;P
And now comment everyone has been waiting for, the one where I ask for a Classic Horror poll. So, uhh, how about a Classic Horror poll?
Hmmm.... a silly question. There is a Richard on popcorn request who uses that spider as a display image. Is that you??? 😄😄
Sorry you're not feeling well, hope we get a post where you say you're feeling great soon.
So sorry you still are not feeling well. When I have a cold or cough it usually takes me a long time to get over it. Glad you will be seeing your parents this week.
Cassie, I do hope you feel better soon. I wish I had a magic elixir to send along, if only to take the sandpaper-sound out of your voice. God bless. (and thank you for Silveradooooooooo!)
Yup. Noticed your message right away!! My Swiftie brain went "wait a second here!!" 😁😄
Forever Yours is a decent Mel movie. I think you two gals will like it. MotA, I would bet you'll enjoy it, but maybe not love it? Look forward to your reaction. TNG Star Trek was never my thing. Hope you enjoy them none the less.
Looking forward to all of these except maybe the next gen episodes. I’m a Star Trek fan but that series mostly bored me. The movies are ones to be endured until we get to the reboots. Shame we never got any DS9 or Voyager movies so that Cassie could watch some of them.
If you skip the first episode of Star Trek then you won't understand the final episode of season 7 - which is one of the best ❤️
i did watch episode 1-2! should be up now!
Cassie that was my brand of comedy the other night and you had me freaking dying. I'm really sorry to hear you're still sick. Please feel better soon, friend! PS-message received!
I empathize with Cassie because I’m nursing a cold right now. I miraculously got through the holidays and the weeks afterward when everyone else was sick… but I’m paying the price for seeing Dune Part 2 at an early screening! Now I can’t watch Dune 2 again for at least a week — because I’m not a selfish a-hole who goes to the theatre when I’m sick! 🤬 Cassie and Carly arranged a theatre reaction for Dune a couple of years ago; I’m hoping they’ll do it again for Dune Part 2 — when Cassie is feeling better, of course. It’s definitely worth it — see it in IMAX, if possible! I’m looking forward to Cassie’s TNG reactions. I’m uncertain what she meant about a “Butter Live” reaction for the first two episodes. I didn’t see anything about it on Patreon or YT. Does she have a Twitch account or something I’m not aware of?
once a month for the extra butter tier we do a love. Sometimes a live watch along, sometimes just a hangout/AMA. In february we did a live watch along to episodes 1-2 of season 1, but of course I record the reaction as well-it just went up
“My fate cannot be mastered; it can only be collaborated with and thereby, to some extent, directed. Nor am I the Captain of my soul; I am only its noisiest passenger.” — Aldous Huxley Theme Week? Also, I think you’ve been sick so long, you’re behaving like Cyrus the Virus. ;-)
Cassie, are you going to Watch episodes 1 and 2 of season 1 of TNG? I assume you will be watching the movies which means you have to watch the “ best of both worlds’” episodes of TNG and in order for those episodes to make sense, Encounter at Farpoint is sort of important. There are not many episodes of TNG that you have to watch to make sense of the films…you need to watch the episode on the emotion chip (“brothers”, I think), at least one episode with the Duras sisters, and the episodes with The Borg (Encounter at Farpoint being one of them). Do yourself a favor and watch ep. 1 and 2 of season 1-even if you don’t film it. It’s not great, but it sets up a lot that you need to know for Best of Both Worlds pt 1 and 2 as well as episodes later in the series.
just went up!! i watched them last week!
STNG can't wait for those. I'm hoping you'll call an audible this month still with the NFL draft and watch DRAFT DAY. Kevin Costner, football, sports movie. Need I say more?
Sorry you're still sick Cassie. I've been struggling to get well for about 6 weeks and finally I'm feeling better. It's awful when it lingers. Hopefully your illness will be gone before you know it. We got lucky in the weather department. It was 72° today. In Michigan😂. Gonna be cold and rainy tomorrow though but, we got to cook out on the grill tonight which was nice. Better than last week. We had 2 tornadoes come very close to us. We got very lucky. Less than 5 mile and missed us. Forever Young is gonna be great and I'm always looking forward to more Star Trek. Can't wait for the package opening live too. You've still got some packages from Christmas from us and we've sent several more since then. We might have our own pile by the time It's over 🤣. See you then. Hopefully you can get some sleep. You might have to grab your pillow from the studio and sit up some while you sleep. Hopefully you'll be feeling like yourself again by then.
Well, I think the coded message will go in your Top Five for that genre for sure.
Masters of the Air and TNG are my favs this week.
Well there are only three reactions this week, so what are you saying?😉😉😂
Cassie, you should do all your upcoming posts in secret code only, that way every week will be a surprise (haha).
The next one should be spelled S-i-c-a-r-i-o.
"my arms hurt from those ruffles" Yeah, well my nose hurts from the truffles. Oink! Snow? How will you poor parents ever acclimate? :-) Regarding your secret message, William Jennings Bryan approves. Giddy-up, horsey! Hope you fully recover soon.
Does...this mean we'll be getting 5 eps of TNG this week?
yes!!
Silverado. Yippee ki Yay. It should be a fun watch, can't wait. Get well soon.
So sorry you’re still not feeling Cassie. These lingering colds can really drain your energy. Load up on the Vitamin C and D. A cup of Earl Grey tea and a hot bowl of chicken noodle soup always does wonders for me. So looking forward to your reaction to Forever Young. I really think this will be one of your favorite movies this year. Lol…I read your post about 5 times and your secret message is going right over my head. Sherlock Holmes I am not. Whatever it is, I’m sure its good.
It's Silverado. YAY!
Oh, Cassie , you do know SILVERADO is going to be your Western of the year? It is going to be a with Carly movie, you know, Kevin Costner and your chance to introduce Carly to Kevin Kline AND Danny (Lethal Weapon) Glover?
Yes please have Carly watch it with you! She will love it.
Well someone better call me out if I complain about not getting my way the next six months or so! I’m very, very happy, and very, very grateful that you are sneaking Secretariat in as well❤️ You are the best!
Cole we will always be happy to call you out! 🤣
You certainly sound like you are better, now that you are back to your creative Update titles. Looking forward to seeing what this month will bring us. Are we going to have another March Madness competition, this year? Get rest, get well, and stay away from Jelly Bellys.
So I was at my cousin's restaurant last week catching up with him. He mentioned symptoms that his wife and 7 year old daughter had, that are identical to yours. They had RSV. I got to an skiing accident at Snowbird Ski Resort in Utah. Had to go to the hospital not fun. So I hope you feel better Cassie, take care of yourself. I am definitely concerned about you. On the bright side Masters Of The Air will be better. Oh and UPS says that your package was delivered today.
I’m so sorry to hear that your cold is being so stubborn. I hope you feel better soon! I’ve never seen Forever Young, with Mel Gibson and I’m looking forward to watching it with you and your sister (sorry I forgot how to spell her name lol) take care and we’ll all see you soon!
Message received: drink your ovaltine.
I feel your pain, I've had the remains of this same cold for going on 4 weeks now. Get well soon
Secret message? In the message? I really don’t Silverado know what you are talking about!! The actor polls really have me excited and you could do two of those a month for awhile and not make everybody happy! Or a few very happy! Lol. You must be some kind of cold germ magnet, those germs really love you, maybe half as much as we all do! Take care of yourself!!
Thank you and Carly for all your hard work putting on the Poppies! I had to be away for most of it 😞, but I'll rewatch!
I can't wait for Lincoln and I really hope Silver Linings Playbook gets through! 🤞
I think I got the message Cassie. Where’s the dog?
Well played. IYKYK
Oh my gosh! Seriously! I cannot wait. It's going to be a lot of fun. (I got the message) 😁
Silverado 😉
Cassie’s gonna love the thing she alluded to in her secret message within the message of this post.
What was the secret message?
Yes, thank God Secretariat. That’s all I wanted.
Get well soon 🍀❤️
