Comments
christopher brown
hope you react to all of the Bourne movies
Guston Zimasheen
I'm taking a wild guess here, but if you do end up watching "The Bourne Identity", then it will pave the way to watching "Run Lola, Run" for a future "Foreign Movie Poll"?
Timo Alho
Please do Long Kiss Goodnight for christmas. It's Samuel L. Jackson's favourite part of his. It's a blast and way underrated.
Logan Kerlee
I can't say that I'm upset about the winner but I'd of preferred The Equalizer. It's a solid action movie that many haven't watched. I think that it'd be a good reaction for that alone - but also some of the scenes are great as well. Maybe next time!
James Whalen
I honestly prefer seeing reactions where both of you have never seen it.
Colin Thomas Nichols
These are all great, but Small Soldiers is such a gem. I would love to see you guys react to it. Just one of those 90's movies that kinda goes under the radar. The entire cast and crew are soo solid.
Rick Trujillo
Have to go with Face/Off because the acting really pulls it off. Definitely one of my faves!
Thomas Yanez
@Aaron Barlow I always love the reference, I just don't get it here?
Thomas Yanez
You can't start JCVD without "Bloodsport"!
Thomas Yanez
I'm watching another reactor going through these and one of my favorite aspects is how unsuspecting they were about the serious side. Pop culture references don't convey the emotional depth you can find in this series.
Thomas Yanez
If you want Woo, then go vote for "Face/Off". Come on, this movie epitomizes everything that was both right and wrong with over-the-top, scenery chewing 90's action movies! And, it looks like the sequel is a "go" again.
Neal Romanek
I think Steve McQueen would be the only star who does his own stunts in any of these movies - motorcycles in Great Escape, and cars in Bullitt.
Thomas Yanez
Adding a vote for "Point Break" because of your enthusiasm. And then adding a vote for "Road House" because that completes my Annual Patrick Swayze Memorial Double Feature.
Armchair Wizard
I love the Bourne Identity.
Paul Cox
Oh, and Psycho.
Paul Cox
It doesn't seem like Daniel and Sam have any fear of watching pre-80s films, but it's hard to get people to vote them up in a poll because there's some kind of cultural brick wall for the subscribers of a lot of the reaction channels. Scan the archives of most channels and watch the view counts drop the further back in time you go. At least Bullitt is in color! Just about the only 3 black & white movies people will click on are It's A Wonderful Life, Casablanca, and 12 Angry Men.
David Martin
Why is Bullitt so far behind? It was so influential in subsequent films. Sad to see it ignored. I guess if it's old it's considered unworthy.
Jonathan Patrick
Action Blown Away (1994) With Jeff Bridges, Tommy Lee Jones Lionheart (1990) Van Damme
justDRK
Point Break. If it loses, watch it anyway.
William 1611
Well, he was already a star, but "The Great Escape" one made him a superstar! I only meant that he has more screen time in "Bullitt." In "The Great Escape," he's part of an ensemble, just as he was in "The Magnificent Seven."
Ken Veader
I wouldn't call Great Escape a smaller role tho, that film is what made him a star
Ken Veader
Steve McQueen poll
Ken Veader
Double Impact, Lionheart and Universal Soldiers
Philip Davetas
Dude, I was just speaking about THE EXPENDABLES thise weekend. Looking forward to EXPEND4BLES.
Philip Davetas
Those movies are so great. For action movies they really tug at my heartstrings. "You're not dead until I tell you!"
TBR Schmitt
LOL! -Sam
Philip Davetas
Oh my fucking god! POINT motherfucking BREAK! For sure!
William 1611
These are pretty good movies, but really, you owe it to yourselves to watch "Bullitt." Steve McQueen is one of his generation's best, and he deserves more attention. Of course, he's in "The Great Escape" too, which is excellent, but it's a smaller role. "Bullitt" set the standard for certain elements that would adorn movies for decades.
David Crabtree
My top 3 here would be Face/Off, Con Air, and Bad Boys. Never really cared for the Bourne films.
Rudy Hernandez
I remember Bourne Identity being good, but Point Break is a classic in our household.
Byron Easley
Van Damn has talked about being coked out of his mind during filming that- on rewatch is very obvious lol
Duncan
"Come on partner β"
Domino
I'm not as big on the action genre but I do recommend... Domino (2005) Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) All of Daniel Craig's James Bond films. π
Jason Dolan
Not gonna lie I'd want them to rewatch BOURNE IDENTITY anyway as they admittedly don't remember movies they've seen a long time ago very well, and it would be fun to re-experience the entire trilogy with them even if it IS just an amnesia rewatch for the first one.
Tim Raths
Iβm surprised you guys havenβt seen the Jason Bourne films.
Robert Cintron
I don't remember you ever saying if you've watched them but you won't regret watching the "Lethal Weapon" series. Great action movies with a lot of heart.
Demos Samolis
I want them to enjoy Van Dammes earlier films. Not the bad decision ones yet lol
Marcus Cato
Thanks for pointing that out! I should have said his Hong Kong movies specifically. I think those were the obes that were really special. MI2 isn't worth a reaction.
mikethemotormouth
Just as long as it's not M:I 2
Marcus Cato
I hear that. I want to recommend the 70s version of Pelham 123 but I don't think it will go anywhere. But I'm really grateful that It's a Wonderful Life may be coming up!
Marcus Cato
I would love to see someone do a John Woo film like The Killer or Hard Boiled.
PickettsChargingPort
The great escape so far behind. Damned kids. My lawn. Off!
christopher brown
Dr No(1962) and Who Dares Wins wins it is also called The Final Option(1982)
Jason Dolan
Haha I mean 4 is fine but legacy is pretty skippable but the trilogy should be the priority
dieselbeast
Street fighter if they wanna watch a van damme movie that's so bad that it's good π
Future Boy
How about we have no more polls until May and just watch everything on this list?
Demos Samolis
Im beating a dead dog here i know. How about just a Van Damme poll??? Hes in the Expendables franchise so we need to brush up on his films lol
Paul Cox
Glad you said trilogy, because there are only 3 Bourne movies. No more than 3. That's the story and I'm sticking to it.
Aaron Barlow
The Bourne Identity is a classic, the sequels are great too.
Ken Veader
Above The Law (1989)
Aaron Barlow
MATT DAMON!!!
Aaron Barlow
Long overdue
dieselbeast
assuming you guys haven't seen them would you guys be interested in seeing the fast and furious franchise or have y'all seen those already? And also this does not have to do with suggestions in any way but I was wondering have y'all ever considered doing a q&a for your YouTube and patreon followers, we love you guys and in a weird way we feel part of your lives at least within this YouTube patreon world LOL so I was just curious if you guys ever would consider doing a q&a so we can get to know you guys more ππ
Gerard Smith
The Last Boy Scout, 1991
TBR Schmitt
We've seen the Taken films -Sam
Ian
Wow this is tough so many good ones so many π€ chose face off but any of them would be great π. Would suggest maybe Faster , dead man down and salt for future consideration π
Paul Cox
Please consider Everything Everywhere All At Once soon.
Demos Samolis
Pshh Face Off or Equalizer needs to win. We need Cage vs Travolta or Denzel Washington.
David Lengyel
Taken should be on that poll too.
Bridget
@TBR Schmitt, "Berry Gordy`s `The Last Dragon'(1985)!!!"
Byron Easley
UTAH!! GET ME TWO! Let's go Point Break and get that Swayze goin!
Jason Dolan
Let's get that BOURNE TRILOGY crossed off the list ASAP please
