Has anyone suggested Band of Brothers to her yet?

Inkayon

Hi Nat, it's been a pleasure to watch your reactions! I'd like to suggest movie "In Bruges", despite some graphic content - it's a great piece (with Farrell, Gleeson and Fiennes). Waiting for your return!

Wilmer Garcia

Hey, sorry you've been down lately. Sending Hugs n love. Cause you're awesome, and I hope you feel better =)

Cinephile GS

I want to throw in my favorite film of all time, HOOK. Spielberg and Robin WIlliams doing Peter Pan. I probably watch it monthly.

JohnnyTankTop

ALL Karate Kid movies, not just the original trilogy lol

Thundarr100

You should really watch The Karate Kid Trilogy, and then start in on the Cobra Kai series on Netflix. Trust me Nat, you won't be disappointed.

Colin Ballendine

Nostalgic. Dang, got me feelin old again. BTW, all four of these choices are excellent. Watch em all (even if not on camera for us)

James V

Something to consider for a future sci-fi poll: The Abyss. The director’s cut in particular.

Ortizmo2000

First saw this in the theaters at age 16. Watched again recently and it's still a fuckin blast. The only thing Carpenter and Russell ever did wrong was Escape From L.A.

Ortizmo2000

Just keep Shredded LaBeef and Lucas away from everything......even the catering truck.

Ortizmo2000

I used to HATE HATE HATE Temple of Doom. Then Crystal Skull came along. Now I simply "don't mind" it.

Yani Dodge

Not a nostalgic movie , (but it is a really sweet amazing movie) but if you haven't seen Klaus before on Netflix, you should do a reaction to that one around Christmas :)

So many movies out there, but you'll understand why I'm after you to see Alita Battle Angel, once you get just a few minutes into it. This movie is a gem. You won't believe me until you've seen it. Here's the first trailer for it, which I think was the best, that revealed the least spoilers, despite having unfinished visuals for the main character. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gu1vBQXazOQ

+1 for Equilibrium! Great movie!

I would love if some time in the future, you do a react series on The Queens Gambit from Netflix

Jeremy Harris

I love movies. I have a collection of over 1000 dvds and Ive seen a lot more than that. Here are my suggestions -Troy -Equilibrium -Hacksaw Ridge (bring your tissues thou) -The Crow -Pacific Rim (CGI fest, but its really well done, soundtrack is amazing and I loved it. Sequel not so much) And...I am not a huge comedy fan, but... -Oscar (Stallone in a comedy I know and it shouldn't work but this is my favorite comedy EVER made. consider this a must watch.)

Big trouble in little china!

Eric Janssen

If I wanted bad Millennial 80's-shaming jokes about "the days when everyone used to watch ALF on TV, lol!", I'd watch WandaVision.

Niklas

I know it's not part of the poll, but I'd like to recommend "Bumblebee". Lighthearted, fun, heartfelt and Hailee Steinfeld is great in it. It works as a stand alone movie too, so no need to watch the other Transformers movies to get the hang of it.

Loneavenger96

I look forward to a possible Indy 5. Age does not restrict adventure and especially for Harrison Ford that guy is in ridiculous shape for someone almost reaching 80.

Loneavenger96

I enjoy all of the Indiana Jones movies. They are simply adventure movies. Not very complicated and remind me of dreaming like a child again. As a kid I loved star wars but Indiana Jones felt so real to me it seemed like something anyone was capable of experiencing.

BJ Stephens

I love the Original Indy trilogy, and find the 4th movie...just Ok, but I dont hate it like some. From what I've observed of Nat, I imagine she will like the 2nd film the least, especially a certain character. ; P

Eric Janssen

Given that I've seen five other reactors do it in the last two weeks, I'm coining the term "Chain Reactions" for the factor of fans inexplicably pushing the EXACT SAME REQUESTS on a group of reactors at the same time, whether it fits with the reactor's taste or not. Call it either that, or "a Kung Fu Hustle".

Eric Janssen

Yeah, it's coming in FOUR WEEKS...

Wilmer Garcia

Hi hi =) Just realized Star wars day is coming. Maybe do a starwarsy thing? Love your content =)

Robert Haynes

I know it's not in the poll, but a great feel good cheesy 80s movie with a cult following would be "Big Trouble in Little China", which is one of my all time favorite movies.

The Power Of LOVEEEEE

Richmond Hill

it does seem relatively recent since the main series ended, but it has been 10 years since deathly hallows and the first movie is almost 20.

If you are looking for Feel Good, I don't think Indy is going to cut it in today's climate. Don't get me wrong, I think 1 and 3 are great movies still, but Nazis from this era are always going to bring out feelings, And if I remember, a lot of brown characters played by caucasian folks. And the non caucasian folk are incredibly sterotypical, especially in #2. Just consider that if you are choosing for the feelgood factor. 🙂

Eric Janssen

I refuse to let May 25, 1977 die out with my generation, just so we can have a stupid joke that people forgot why they were telling.

Nah, not just you, elements of that series have aged really badly, hell, the racial insensitivity of the second film was already widely criticised when the film first released.

Daniel Horsman

I dunno if it is just me being a snowflake, but I recently watched Indiana Jones for the first time and it came across as extremely problematic :/

Stoned Misthios

None of these. I'm still waiting on the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy. SW was the reason I even subbed originally& afta ROTS I figured a break was needed but dang its been forever. Idc what ppl I still would luv your reactions to em. Especially with May the 4th round the corner🙏🏾

Thoko

same

Brandon Scott

I’m still gonna be pushing for a Rocky video. I can’t believe you’ve never seen that film.

Opti_Frog

And #3, the cheeziest of the lot.

Edward Olson

I am not interested in "reactions" to movies people have seen before.

Jason McQuirns

Thanks for letting us know.

Ortizmo2000

The FIRST Die Hard, sure.

E Keys

'Reactions' lol it will still be a reaction even if its seen before.

The Golgothan

If you're looking for a series of movies to delve into after the MCU, I would suggest the DCAMU (DC Animated Movie Universe) with a few additions, notably The Dark Knight Returns

I'm older, so ive seen the potter series once in the movie and once on DvD ( stopped buying them after 2 or 3) Ive seen BttF and Indiana Jones multiple times as well as Jurassic.

Probably because she knows they are good and doesn't have to rely on people's opinions of whats really good and what's not. If shes in the mood for something feel good, I'm sure she would hate to start and then be disappointed. I once had a guy argue with me, that the live action Avatar: The last Airbender, was good.

Spielberg, Lucas, Williams...I gotta go with Indiana Jones. ( as long as you leave out, Kingdom of the Crystal skull, LOL).

David Olden

Randee she does! It says “pick ALL that apply”

Ellis Hugh

How old am I that Harry Potter seems nostalgic to someone..? Something to consider for after GoT is done... PLEASE tell me that Nat hasn't seen Stranger Things!!!

M four Movies

Could've sworn you already did BTTF? But any of them sound good to me. Die Hard would be cool too

Greg McDaniel

You mean the one George Lucas originally wanted to call "Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars" before they decided to link it to the crystal skulls?

Joe D. MacGuffinstuff

It's a win-win-win-win as far as I'm concerned but I voted Indy because I'm nostalgic about the Last Crusade, I got to see it in the theater when it was released and I was already a big River Phoenix fan from Explorers, Stand By Me, and Mosquito Coast. RIP.

WhatTheSpock

Looks like Indiana Jones is gonna be it. Just don't watch the fourth one. The fourth one blows.

Eric Janssen

The Disneyland ride is better. :)

It Hurt A Lot

Indiana Jones is so nostalgic for me. I still remember as a kid my Mom holding her hand over my eyes at certain parts. Then as I got older finding out what I wasnt allowed to see haha. Plus I love the show at Disney World

James Reese

Despite its placement in the polls, life, finds a way.

Misty Crom

Voted the way I did as there isn't a 'Yes!' option.

Thomas Monk

See something new. Try the TV series Lost. : )

Garren Haskell

There was a fourth one? I must have repressed all memory of that or something... hmmm weird.

Thomas Malley

In terms of all round feel good, I don't think anything beats the Back To The Future trilogy.

Josh B

If you want something funny and enjoyable to watch you should consider taking a brief break from GOT between seasons and watch something like Fleabag which is a very short series which could be watched in a few sittings

Wesley Eskildsen

Indy, but stop after three the fourth one was not good.

Thomas Monk

Back to the Future... AFTER Indiana Jones.

Chris Gronau

I voted for Harry Potter, but the Indy movies are also a great choice. If you're looking for something not quite so dark (to offset Game of Thrones), I might recommend The Sound of Music, Labyrinth, Ladyhawke, Airplane! or Ghostbusters (the original).

Alan Kobb

With so many movies that you've never seen, why repeats?

Benjamin Preston

I had to go with Jurassic Park because that's one of the movies I always watch whenever I am sick and have to stay home.

David Crabtree

Indiana Jones! Probably my favorite(at least top 3) movie series ever!

Brian - DocHikes - Hall

Doctor Jones!!!

James Young

Back to the Future... no brainer

Charlie Keeler

Indy but as others suggested passing on Crystal Skulls more than fine.

Logan Kerlee

100% with you, there.

Joe Blankenship

Indiana Jones is great, but Back to the Future is one of my all time faves.

Gary Poussard

Indy!

swoop_13-37

We can skip that one. Just like the sequels for star wars.

swoop_13-37

Yes Indy!!! But we can skip #4.

Dan Careaga

This is an incredibly hard choice!

Daniel Gauvreau

I feel you are going through something difficult recently and I'm sorry if that is the case. I just hope you feel better soon as you so generously brighten our lives every week with your reactions. You deserve happiness!

If you have truly never seen the Indy series you are in for a treat!

ScottK63

I'd say do Harry Potter but wait until you're done with Game of Thones. These other options are a little lighter and a better balance in the meantime against GoT.

Krash Koi

I wish Jurassic Park wasn't dragged down by its weak sequels :/

The Recovery

Crossing fingers for BTTF, one of my favorite movie series.

Tom Tomlinson

Maybe Natalie should consider Children of Men? not real happy film but very well made and Mordo is in it

Tom Tomlinson

I picked BTTF only because Indy 4 is so not good

Reavis Wade

So excited for this, especially since you haven’t seen the Indy movies in awhile.

Ken

Indiana Jones and Back to the Future are my choices. My interest in Jurassic Park ends completely after the first one. I tried but could never get into Harry Potter.

Greg Latta

If Jones... feel free to just do the original trilogy... we won't mind! ;)

Cole Jennett

Son in Law is one of my all-time guilty pleasures and I did like Encino Man as well. Absolutely nothing else though.

Niknok Seyer

Voted for Harry Potter

Jill Finlayson

I agree with you! I love them all but only really like the first Jurassic Park after that it's kinda downhill as much as I love Jeff Goldblume

navghtivs

They are all good.

Darryl Low

Can't wait to watch whatever series wins with you Nat. I think we all need a fun distraction right now 💛

Vidcutter

Voting for Indiana Jones not because it's my favorite of these franchises but because I think Nat's reactions to the over-the-top action would be hilarious. Especially the vine-swinging in Crystal Skull.

Ben Wheeler

All of these are great but I’m going with Indy because it holds a special place in my heart but also sounds like it’s been the longest time since Natalie has seen it out of the choices.

Eric Janssen

I'd like to see a reactor start the Star Trek series WITHOUT doing the JJ Abrams movies. Rather see them start where JJ did: Wrath of Khan. :)

Cole Jennett

People you can vote for as many as you like. I voted for all but Jurassic Park, and really wouldn’t mind it that much either

Cole Jennett

Umm what? The Last Crusade is one of the funnest movies ever! I’ll give you Crystal Skull though. Agree completely on Jurassic Park

This_Jedi_crafts

Indiana Jones series is cool but I'm also obsessed with Jurassic Park BUT....knowing that Nat is enduring GOT right now (carnage, nudity, violence, dragons), it might be a fun change of pace. It would also be great to watch the Harry Potter franchise from start to finish - I lost interest after a while. Only so much room in my heart for fantasy/ sci-fi/horror. Star Wars and Marvel take my heart, for all of that.

Eric Janssen

There IS no Indiana Jones or Jurassic Park "series"...There is only Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Jurassic Park. (Okay, and maybe the first Jurassic World, but not that horrendous second one.) And is this the last remaining reactor on YouTube who has NOT fangirl-gushed her way through the entire Harry Potter series? Feel like we need closure.

William R Coughlan

Voted BTTF, just 'cause it's so consistently fun, but would also enjoy your Indiana Jones commentary. :)

Mac McNeely

I voted for JP, cos I love them, but I'd be happy with anything besides Harry Potter. Not interested there at all

Andrew T

I vote to just react to all of these in order of poll count. It'll be Nostalgia Nights for a lot of us, except we get to couch-watch with Natalie.

Josh G

Indiana Jones is the gold standard for action/adventure movies. Except the last one, you can skip that.

Christopher French

Indy first. Then BTTF

R.BGames37

I just voted all 4, cos all 4 are just yeay. And cool.

Brian Leonard

Back to the Future is the only one of these franchises I care about.

Andy Jordan

Tough to pick between Indy and BTTF, but I think Indy's probably a little easier on a first-timer than BTTF (for whoever's watching it for the first time along with you), so Indy it is for me.

Randee Carreno

We need an 'all of the above' option. LOL! That was such a tough choice. I picked "Indiana Jones" just because I'm a huge Harrison Ford fangirl. Which is one of the reasons why I'm looking forward to your "Blade Runner" reaction. 😊 Have a great rest of the day & weekend! Stay Golden! 💛

Ian

Holy moly u can't go wrong with any of these I'm totally on the fence here because I'm delighted with whatever wins cheers for another wonderful week of content nat youre a true legend 💛

Lisa Tosti

This is so hard but I'm going Back to the Future! I really wouldn't mind any of these. Also please eventually watch How to Train Your Dragon (series). That was on your Princess Bride list and I would love for you to watch this series!

Stephen W. Evans

Can't go wrong with any of these, really. If you don't plan on seeing the next (final?) Jurassic movie in theaters, maybe wait to do that series until it is streaming. I hear it will wrap up the entire franchise, but who knows if it will be any good.
