2023 Week 27 Poll: Blank's Birthday Picks!!!
Added 2023-06-19 16:12:13 +0000 UTCWhat up heathens! I know last week we asked about preferred polls, and the overwhelming winner was "Movies that need more reactions". Well, that poll will be here next week, since I forgot this was my birthday week picks. So basically, you guys are getting the same poll twice in a row (movies that haven't been reacted too much), only this week is solely my picks. So if there's any complaints, direct them at me. LoL
These are all movies all near and dear to me for one reason or another, and most don't show up on any reaction channels very much. So let's change that. Next week, it'll be "Movies that need more reactions", but it'll be more from J and your suggestions. This week? It's all about what Blank wants. So let's get these picks in, and feel free to drop/like suggestions in the comments for some movies for next week that need reactions. We have a few planned already I think for next week, but also do want to see if there are any you all overwhelmingly want to try to get on a poll. Anything that stands out and is mentioned liked more than usual, we will do our best to include.
As always, you guys are the best, so get those votes in ASAP and let's see what's joining The Patriot for the 4th of July week on the channel. Good luck!

Sooner or later I'm just gonna schedule it. I get tired of seeing it lose, too. LoL

2023-06-24 07:03:13 +0000 UTCSpace Cowboys is my first pick but its not going to win and Maverick is the only other one I enjoy so i will throw my vote there.

2023-06-23 21:53:18 +0000 UTCThe original "From Hell: was an 80s Sherlock Holmes movie called "Murder by Decree" identical plot no credit given.
Alberto Blanco
2023-06-23 05:01:17 +0000 UTCWow! I did not know that about Jeffrey Jones and J just watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off :-(
Hot Indie Media
2023-06-21 19:15:56 +0000 UTCbut James Garner is brilliant in "Space Cowboys" :-)
Hot Indie Media
2023-06-21 19:12:43 +0000 UTC"Space Cowboys" was directed by Clint Eastwood so we know J will love it :-)
Hot Indie Media
2023-06-21 19:09:28 +0000 UTCyeah, I just added a new comment asking to see if anyone would consider changing their votes
Hot Indie Media
2023-06-21 19:08:35 +0000 UTC"Space Cowboys" was directed by Clint Eastwood and it stars Eastwood, Tommy Lee Jones, Donald Sutherland, James Garner and James Cromwell to name a few so kind of sad that it's not doing better in this poll. Oh well, I hope that maybe a few votes can be changed because we all know how much J loves those Clint Eastwood films.
Hot Indie Media
2023-06-21 18:46:36 +0000 UTCYou know what movie needs way more reactions and I just know JL would love is, The Replacements!!
CinWin
2023-06-21 10:35:37 +0000 UTCCocoon is such a sweet film. I think J would like it. :)
Echo Moon
2023-06-21 01:35:09 +0000 UTCLol I have never seen any of these movies, most of em I never heard of before so Ill just not vote on this round
Crypt0sis
2023-06-21 01:33:35 +0000 UTCNoooo ugh Powder is a beautiful movie. That's a bummer
LeSheezy
2023-06-20 21:39:37 +0000 UTCAgreed, I'm a bit surprised at it's poor showing in the poll.
T.J. Gengler
2023-06-20 18:29:39 +0000 UTCI honestly don't remember any of these. But never seen anyone react to Cowboys vs Aliens, The Indian in the Cupboard, Cocoon, Bubba-Ho-Tep, or Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter?
Beverly Dancy
2023-06-20 17:52:33 +0000 UTCSpace Cowboys is one of my all time favorites
Hot Indie Media
2023-06-20 17:14:02 +0000 UTCSorry, sorry...I have two more suggestions and then I'll stop. LOL (we all know I can't stop) Overboard (1987) the one with Goldie Hawn/Kurt Russell and Batteries Not Included (1987) with Hume Cronyn/Jessica Tandy. Both are just fun good films I think J will enjoy and not too many people react to these. :)

2023-06-20 07:26:36 +0000 UTCHaha same
Jonathan Patrick
2023-06-20 06:59:57 +0000 UTCI think since it’s Blank’s birthday coming up, he/she (idk and idc, you can eat my underwear) should get to pick whatever he wants. Even if he thinks we won’t care for it. But I trust his judgment that it would be something Murder would appreciate.

2023-06-20 02:46:32 +0000 UTCAhhhh! I didnt know that. Crappo. SO many Jeff Jones movies...dangit. Gross. So many movies I dig just got tarnished right now! (Tbc, NO shade at you, LeSheezy. You gave me some Truth, and I appreciate that, truly and deeply. Really, I do. But rack-a-frackin dangblangit!!!...) 😔
g g gooding
2023-06-20 02:44:46 +0000 UTCWell, Happy Birthday Blank!! I wish I could give you something, but all I know you collect are comic's, right? I'll slip something nto the next "Care Package" for J. Now a suggestion for next weeks poll. How about "Collateral", with Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx? It's a Michael Mann film too, so that's good. Later Blank!!
Chris Baldwin
2023-06-20 02:32:40 +0000 UTCThe shark in Joe is easily one of my favorite moments in any movie, ever. Thats all I'll say about that.
g g gooding
2023-06-20 02:30:28 +0000 UTCI'd hope for both. The '62 one is of course a cornerstone of cinema that holds up (except for maybe Henry Silva playing a Chinese man) but Jonathan Demme's remake is shockingly good! (You know that, of course, Echo.)
g g gooding
2023-06-20 00:02:23 +0000 UTCDon't get me wrong, CHUD aint bad - but 2 has practically *nothing* to with 1. And 2 is...well...its special.
g g gooding
2023-06-19 23:58:14 +0000 UTCHey Blank! Happy birthday coming up.
ChickensAreRacist
2023-06-19 23:04:27 +0000 UTCI feel the same way about Powder (1995) and Jeepers Creepers (2001) because the writer/director went to jail for child porn and videoing a 12 y/o kid doing stuff to him. Sicko! I used to love Powder, beautiful sad film and story, but now...I just can't.

2023-06-19 22:48:51 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday, Blank! :)

2023-06-19 22:40:28 +0000 UTCHappy Belated Birthday, frost!
bunnygirl71
2023-06-19 22:39:33 +0000 UTCI second this suggestion. Memento is brilliant!
bunnygirl71
2023-06-19 22:38:59 +0000 UTCHappy upcoming birthday Blank!! Much love to you brother. I hope you have a wickedly cool epic gnarly rad awesome and totally tubular birthday! Oh no, I slipped back into the 80s...gag me with a spoon. LOL
Echo Moon
2023-06-19 22:30:20 +0000 UTCHappy belated bday buddy!
Blank EOM
2023-06-19 22:28:55 +0000 UTCWhich Manchurian Candidate gg? The 1962 one with Frank Sinatra/Laurance Harvey or the 2004 remake with Denzel Washington/Liev Schreiber? Both are good IMO.
Echo Moon
2023-06-19 22:24:55 +0000 UTCI second Ice Pirates!! I actually suggested this on another post. :)
Echo Moon
2023-06-19 22:20:54 +0000 UTCI have Chud on dvd. LOL
Echo Moon
2023-06-19 22:20:07 +0000 UTCHappy belated Bday frost!!!!!!! Hope it was an amazing day for you!
Echo Moon
2023-06-19 22:18:40 +0000 UTCMAVERICK. I feel like it’s an underappreciated, underrated movie more people should try watching. It’s one of the funniest westerns out there and contains a ton of cameos of old western actors and country musicians and has a great soundtrack.
CT
2023-06-19 22:09:28 +0000 UTCAnyone is fine I haven't seen anyone of these but I voted for space cowboys just because I've heard about that one hb blank
Robin Ann Weber
2023-06-19 21:27:12 +0000 UTCMan! I love RAVENOUS. But I'm sure it won't win.
Philip Davetas
2023-06-19 20:35:40 +0000 UTCI can't even enjoy Mom and Dad Save the World now knowing Jeffrey Jones is a pedo and registered offender and I used to love that movie.
LeSheezy
2023-06-19 20:12:06 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday Blank! I vote Maverick. Recommend Joe vs the Volcano 🌋
Jonathan Patrick
2023-06-19 20:10:13 +0000 UTCI’d also like to recommend Steve Martin’s “The Jerk”.
Jeff B.
2023-06-19 18:12:08 +0000 UTCNo, not required. I simply submit that I consider watching it first to be preferable and worthy of consideration and discussion.
T.J. Gengler
2023-06-19 18:10:00 +0000 UTCI don’t think it’s necessary, because it doesn’t really carry over any characters or even the zombie “rules”. In fact, it just uses “Night” as a jumping off point. Granted, I love NotLD and I think JL should see it if he hasn’t, but I don’t think it’s required for enjoying RotLD.
Jeff B.
2023-06-19 17:56:00 +0000 UTCI agree. NIGHT's the OG, and it ain't boring, even if it moves slowly (heh). Worth JL watching for a lot of reasons.

2023-06-19 17:35:50 +0000 UTCmy bd was on the 14th
frost1977
2023-06-19 17:32:28 +0000 UTCat least with Maverick, he has seen Lethal Weapon. most reactions i have seen did Maverick first so they miss that little nugget that's in there.
frost1977
2023-06-19 17:31:35 +0000 UTCZero spoil here...Momento was inspired by a real dude: Henry Molaison with...well, the issue at hand. You can read about him on Wiki...but to be warned: HM's story is interesting but it aint fun per se.
g g gooding
2023-06-19 17:30:11 +0000 UTCI fully support J's reacting to RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD. My only question is if it's necessary or even desirable for J to watch the original '68 NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD first? Personally, I think it is. RETURN isn't really a sequel to NIGHT but the original is useful. It stands on it's own classic horror merits quite well while providing a useful frame of reference for RETURN. IMHO, J should watch NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD first. What sayeth the group?
T.J. Gengler
2023-06-19 17:18:36 +0000 UTCGot another suggestion...Memento (2000) it's a great "what's going on" that I think J will like, he seems to like working out plots/mysteries.
Echo Moon
2023-06-19 17:13:24 +0000 UTCI would like to suggest for the poll next week...Same Time Next Year (1978). I think it's one of Alan Alda's better roles and who can deny the talent of Ellen Burstyn. :) I have never seen anyone react to it anywhere.
Echo Moon
2023-06-19 17:09:34 +0000 UTCHa! It *is* set on 4th of July, I forgot that! (Why, tho?) If anyone cares, the sequels are lackluster. BUT a scripted sequel, which is fantastically hilarious, was made as CHUD 2: Bud the CHUD. Its *clearly* a sequel to Return, no need to watch CHUD, and its insanely charming. I highly suggest it (if you can find it.) "Meat!"
g g gooding
2023-06-19 17:07:48 +0000 UTCI love it sooo much. And the 4th of July is coming up so it’s the perfect watch for the holiday.
Jeff B.
2023-06-19 16:58:51 +0000 UTCIts a bit outta y'alls wheel house, but no one has ever reacted to The Manchurian Candidate (either of em!) Which...how has NO ONE reacted to the OG plot-twisting flick?
g g gooding
2023-06-19 16:58:33 +0000 UTCLove Return of the Living Dead! Would enjoy seeing JL react to that one. 🤣
Jennifer & Natalie
2023-06-19 16:52:02 +0000 UTCI've been hoping someone would be brave enough to react to ICE PIRATES.
T.J. Gengler
2023-06-19 16:48:23 +0000 UTCHappy happy birthday, Blank.🎂 Since Maverick is the only movie on this poll that I've seen, my vote goes there.
CinWin
2023-06-19 16:46:33 +0000 UTCI 💯 support Return of the Living Dead! "Help me bar the door, stupid f***ers!"
g g gooding
2023-06-19 16:45:49 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday! I always want to see more “Return of the Living Dead” reactions. And something a little weirder… Sly Stallone completely out of his element in “Rhinestone”. You either love it unironically or break your own spine cringing at it.
Jeff B.
2023-06-19 16:33:29 +0000 UTCI forgot all about Mom and Dad Save the world. Watched this as a kid.
Reed James
2023-06-19 16:33:04 +0000 UTCHappy bday my brother. Hope it’s awesome!

2023-06-19 16:20:17 +0000 UTCMy complaint directed at YOU, Blank, as per your instructions: I can only vote for one! Happy Birthday, heathen. Many happy returns!
