FINAL 2 MOVIES OF AUDIENCE CUT SEASON 1
The votes have been distributed and The Hunt for Red October was able to garner enough 2nd-5th place votes (yes 5th place votes were needed) to secure the majority! It came all the way down to 3 movies! The runner ups were Contact and True Lies but ultimately neither came very close. Glad to see the ranked choice voting allowed for a wide variety of votes, but The Hunt for Red October was by far the favorite. Hopefully you enjoy it as our season finale! We will be watching this LIVE on Wednesday, May 15th at 6pm eastern. The stream will be available afterwards for the UNCUT reaction. We will also be talking about Audience Cut season 2 plans after the reaction. Hope to see you there!
However, there is still one episode coming before the finale! Alex has made one final pick for the season and it is one of his top 10 favorite movies - Session 9! Josh has seen the film once before, so this will be more commentary than reaction. Because of this, we have decided to try out making this our very first Target Audience Commentary Track! It will be audio only and match up with the film, meaning you should play both at the same time from the start. We would recommend watching the film without commentary first if you haven’t seen it before as we will be discussing spoilers throughout. The track will be available to purchase for download in the shop. Pricing is still being decided, but it will be FREE for AUDIENCE MEMBER & TARGET DEMOGRAPHIC Patrons!

I'm looking forward to it!!!
How have you guys never seen this movie?
I've had people say those words to me so many times. It's really easy to miss a few Important Movies along the way.
Hunt for Red October is such a great watch. Easily a top 2 submarine movie. Knowing a "popular" movie would obviously win the poll, Im very happy that this was the result 👌
I normally pay attention to just the Star Trek content but ... I'll very much enjoy watching you react to Red October, it is a great movie.
Red October is the "Top Gun" of submarine movies. Glad to see you guys are getting around to it!
Epic film! I don't care for the other Jack Ryan movies, but I adore Red October.
I've never seen or even heard of Session 9. The trailer makes it seem like a pretty typical horror film, and neither "typical" nor "horror" are adjectives I'm drawn to. Is this movie better than the trailer makes it out to be? Does it surpass the horror genre in some way? Should I watch it even though it's a little outside my comfort zone?
Just watched the trailer for the first time because of your comment and yeah it’s pretty terrible. It’s definitely not a conventional horror movie. It’s more of a psychological thriller with a slow burn that builds suspense and tension without relying on jump scares or too much gore. We tend to appreciate a story that leaves you thinking a long time after watching and that’s what this did for us. Wouldn’t be incredibly surprised if it’s not for everyone though.
Terrific outcome. Points for choosing Session 9. Very underrated. You should also consider at some point, The Ruins.
Desire to smash the capitalist machine INTENSIFIES
This is my favorite of the two red-colored submarine thrillers.
If I had a nickel for every red-colored submarine movie I've seen, I'd have two nickels, which isn't much but sure seems like a lot.
Excellent.
Very good Basil Poledoris music score for 'Red October'. John Milius did some rewriting of the script.
HYPE! Sorry for another sub movie so soon, but I hope you will dig the characters and dialogue. Can't wait for TRUE LIES, CONTACT, and TOMBSTONE at some point!
This system of preferential voting is how we elect our politicians in Australia. Do you use it for your Congressional elections in America?
I wish. There are some states that started using it. I believe Alaska does.
You Akira hating losers in the audience
I wonder if your entry even counted, given that you listed Akira in all six voting slots!
