Worst movie you have watched and why?

Byrd N. Hand

I'll go with his collaborations with David O. Russell: "Three Kings," "I Heart Huckabees," and "The Fighter."

Byrd N. Hand

If she also finally watches "Godfather III," "Terminator 3," and Matrix 2 & 3, I'll allow it. 😏

Byrd N. Hand

"Mulholland Drive" is still my favorite film of the 21st century so far... though I think it may be throwing Addie into the deep end of his work. "The Elephant Man" may be the best gateway into his filmography.

Byrd N. Hand

You didn't have a livestream last month. When do you hope to have your next one?

Byrd N. Hand

Yes, Addie has stood up and been counted. 😏 And, yes, it is her real name.

Casey Ryback

Father Stu

Andrew Storing

Who would your Jedi mentor be? (If it was to be someone other than Yoda)

Billy Dancel

Here we go… Have you memorized LET’S GET NUTS yet? Could you ask LEGO Add-E to sing it for us? You gave us two great song sound bites with “Who Let the dog out… Ghoul Ghoul” and “Superman in tow” … which makes you regret saying it more? They were both enjoyed immensely. Lately in a majority you use “Buddy” in reference to men/guys in the movies. Do you ever call actual people you know Irl as Buddy? I don’t remember if you’ve addressed this but why did you stop opening your videos with your, “Heyyy, it’s Addie and….” It was great seeing it for The LEGO Movie.

HFS123

Is Addie Counts your real name or are you super into Mathematics?

justin swan

hi im new i aint got much to say but that im/were going to binge watch the many rections we watched on YT :)

Luis Fernandez

Wow, I haven't seen any of these.. I have some watching to do. Well done, guys! (I'll probably save Twisters just in case Addie does it for the channel... seems like the sort of movie that would be a likely candidate to appear at some point)

MrAustincummings

Now that you've seen A League of Their Own and Field of Dreams, are you going to watch Rudy?

Thomas Wetherell

Have you ever heard of Flashback Cinema? It’s where movie theaters replay older movies on the big screen and I think you’d enjoy it even if it doesn’t end up on the channel. I went to see Jurassic Park again and had a great time.

Cameron Kerby

What is your favorite kind of cuisine? Mexican? Italian? Also, what snacks are your favorites?

aspectsAK

Better then Pvt. Little Joe

aspectsAK

Nah, I say. Les we remove the basis of the "What state is high in the middle and round on both ends?" riddle.

aspectsAK

Only when one is drunk.

aspectsAK

If you started with the "Left foot in" instead of the "Right foot in" are you still doing the Hokey Pokey? Would it be considered a right brain dominant version of the song?

Joeheg758

Since it's on your Letterboxd, which is the better side of the Xanadu soundtrack? Olivia Newton-John or ELO?

Jason Johnson

What movie world would you love to live in?

Alex Tan

She has. They're her favorites that she's seen of all of the movies that she watched on her channel.

Patrick Anderson

Have you watched The Lord of the Rings trilogy? I can't recall if you have.

Byrd N. Hand

I'll suggest Nagisa Oshima's "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence."

Byrd N. Hand

She only does movies on the wheel.

Byrd N. Hand

Anything within reason. Common sense suggests avoiding anything from the socially taboo trio of religion, politics, and sex. 🙄

Byrd N. Hand

If she does, it would probably only be in October.

Lastboyscout73

What makes you decide to watch a show? I noticed you haven't done Ted Lasso yet so can you put a show in on the spinny wheel?

Thomas Wetherell

Respectfully I don’t think that’s an appropriate question to ask. I know it says “ask me anything” but I wouldn’t push the boundaries of that statement.

ButtercupsTrueLove

Have you ever watched "Deathtrap", starring Michael Caine and Christopher Reeve? Because just recently Warner Bros has uploaded this dark comedy to YouTube to view for FREE. You can't see me but I just jumped up and clicked my heels together. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThNtgWTS6P0

Andre Agog

We lost the amazing moviemaker David Lynch a few weeks ago. Perhaps it is time to consider some of his movies for your channel?

Thomas Wetherell

Does Wyoming exist?

Thomas Wetherell

Should Ohio be eliminated?

Thomas Wetherell

Major Dick Winters, always.

Dave M.

Anything anything? Why no OF? Hey, you said “ANYYYTHINGGG…”!

Phil Stubblefield

Following up on last month's worst dad question: Who is your favorite leader? Aragorn, son of Arathorn? Or Major Dick Winters? 🤔

Randolph Tirazona

YEAH!!!

Bran Flakes

Favourite Kpop group? 🙃

Stephen Malloy

Does Ollie have a favorite dog channel on YT/Insta?

Chris Capitano

Are you gonna watch the transformers movies and are you gonna finish watching the blade movies

Alex Tan

...and Lee Isaac Chung with Minari (2020) & Twisters (2024).

Alex Tan

...and Fear (1996), The Corruptor (1999), The Italian Job (2003), Pain & Gain (2013), Mile 22 (2018), Arthur the King (2024), and Flight Risk (2025). #MoreMarkWahlbergForAddieCounts

drew

Dave Walker

Ok. Thanks

Doug

In case her Q&A is posted after the 14th, she mentioned earlier that she'll be watching Something About Mary as her next rom-com soon (so if I had to guess that will be the Valentine's Day film next week, but that's just a guess. 🤷‍♂️ )

Al Mason

Addie, I am only asking you this because I think we share at least some background in Theatre, and you also seem like you have such a good heart & a deep caring for others. I recently came across a TikTok a freshman Theatre major posted about something she’s going through and the story of what she went through really got to me on an empathetic level, because I have been part of a college theatre department and know how bonded one can feel with people who are part of the same department. Do you have any advice or suggestions for this young lady please? I was really at a loss for words in terms of what to comment on her video. I just wondered what your thoughts would be in terms of a supportive comment or a suggestion for her please? After I saw her TikTok just before I got the notification for your AMA, I was like “I would be glad to sacrifice the question I was going to ask this month if it could lead to getting some support for her in this tough and unique situation.” The link to it is: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2hr7gJM/

Patrick Blondin

Among all the movies that you watched along your reactor’s journey, what were the movies that were surprisingly good to you? Like you didn’t think you would like as much but ended up loving.

Alex Tan

Monthly Q&As are better. I get to know more about Addie from these.

Al Mason

There’s also Ang Lee with The Ice Storm

Kyle Brandon Sanger

Addie, will you be interested in reacting to the first three 'Evil Dead' films? Such an iconic and beloved trilogy. Can't wait for your introduction to Ash.

Cody Cameron

If you heard about alternate casting in famous roles, what is one that surprised you to learn about?

phillip giroux

How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?

HFS123

What was the first movie you watched at the cinema/movie theater, and what was the most recent?

Jason Pratt

Thought it was a cool addition with your butterfly tattoo, was it your first, and are you planning on expanding your collection? I don’t regret mine but they’re getting out of control!

Kyle Brandon Sanger

Hi Addie, are you familiar with the character of Conan the Barbarian?

Luis Fernandez

The theme for the recommedations this month: Asian directors doing English-language movies. Check out: John Woo - Face Off (1997), Takashi Miike – Sukiyaki Western Django (2007), and Bong Joon Ho - Snowpiercer (2013). [Some people would say to watch Parasite and not Snowpiercer, and Parasite is indeed a very good film, but I prefer Snowpiercer]

Byrd N. Hand

She's said in the past that she won't do this; it's basically bribing a reactor to watch a movie you want them to watch.

Luis Fernandez

Would you rather have a mouthful of teeth but always have food stuck in them, no matter how much you floss… OR… have perfectly clean teeth but an uncontrollable urge to loudly narrate every bite you take?

Jay Perry

How much would you take for a 1 time donation, ti watch a certain movie? Even your top supporters only have to ay a game of chance to maybe get what they want? It's not making sense to me. I want to watch certain movies with you, not go to the casino. I still love ya.

Dave Walker

Do you have a rom-com in mind for Valentine's ? I have the perfect movie suggestion. Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005) Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

David hess

Hey addie I was wondering if u have seen the fast in the furious movies?

Thats MR. Baldamort

Simple fun question for you. If you stand on earth and head to space In a rocket, how far "up" are you no longer considered going up? Is "up" even really a thing? Think about it then ask ChatGPT for the answer!

Thats MR. Baldamort

I also love the monthy Q&As though I understand why it could be repetitive to do ot each month after a while especially if she ends up doing more YouTube live streams where people ask her questions anyway.

Doug

Hi Addie, with March coming up I thought it might be fun to get suggestions from you and commenters for a St Patrick’s Day movie. 🙂 Here are some movies involving Ireland or Irish characters that could be worth a look: - Wolfwalkers (2020) - Sing Street (2016) - Brooklyn (2015) - Song of the Sea (2014) - The Guard (2011) - The Secret of Kells (2009) - Once (2007) - Waking Ned Devine (1998) - War of the Buttons (1994) - The Secret of Roan Inish (1994) - My Left Foot (1989)

Doug

Just speaking for myself I like the monthly Q&A’s. 🙂

Byrd N. Hand

Given that many people - especially those who have been with you from the start - seem to be running out of genuinely interesting questions to ask you outside of "Will you react to [insert movie here]?", would you consider reducing this feature to every 2-3 months?

Augustus87

Yay! Thank you, Abbie. Since there is no way for me to send you my novel, may I at least recommend it to you? It is called A Golconda Story. Took me 7 years to write. What happens when a person is embraced to be a vampire against their will? At first, Patty Heron enjoys her new powers. But then she realizes it is a futile experience, as she is cursed and undead- a monster without hope. She misses all the parts of humanity we take for granted. Further, she is separated from God. Thereafter, she sets out to try to find a way back to humanity, if at all possible, or die trying. One can find A Golconda Story at the Storytellers Vault. Thanks =)

Guillaume Huet_rennibou

Hi Addie! You have the opportunity to buy the rights in order to produce a play inspired by a movie you enjoyed. Which one(s) could it be?

Mr. Writhms

Are you willing to throw us horror film fans a small bone? Like have ONE horror film poll outside of October? Let’s say, in March? Other channels react to horror every now and then. I’m asking for ONE movie outside of October, nothing too scary. It could be a comedy/ horror like “Fright Night” (1985) or “Happy Death Day” (2017). At least a suspense thriller like Brian De Palma’s “Dressed To Kill” (1980). 🥲 Be a sport. We all love your karate hands. 😁

Troy Sinegal

Hey Addie. Whenever you see Samuel L. Jackson in a movie, what makes enjoy his performances or the characters he plays? Is it his acting, his personality, his range etc..

Alex Tan

Rapid Fire Questions! 🔥🔥: Strongest Addie jump scare that made you curse, The Riddler hiding in the shadows in The Batman (2022) or Jayne Cobb getting attacked by a Reaver attack survivor in Firefly Episode 3: Bushwhacked? Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone or Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone? Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You by Frankie Valli or ily (i love you baby) by Surf Mesa featuring Emilee? Blue (Da Ba Dee) by Eiffel 65 or I'm Good (Blue) by David Guetta & Bebe Rexha? Favorite character played by Florence Pugh, Amy March in Little Women (2019), Yelena Belova in the MCU, Jean Tatlock in Oppenheimer (2023) or Princess Irulan in Dune: Part Two (2024)? Favorite Chris Pratt movie trilogy, Guardians of the Galaxy or Jurassic World?

Randolph Tirazona

Will you and Ollie Dance with Wolves (1990) soon?!?

Alex Tan

Are you & Jeremy doing anything special for Valentine's Day? Since they're runner-ups on your recent poll, will you react to the 2019 Final Cut of Apocalypse Now (1979) and the 2007 Director's Cut of Troy (2004)? Will you react to Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo (1958) with James Stewart and Kim Novak? Will you react to Backdraft (1991) with Kurt Russell, William Baldwin, Scott Glenn and Robert De Niro? Since this year's lunar new year animal is the year of the snake, are you willing to face your fear of them by watching either Anaconda (1997) or Snakes on a Plane (2006) for Halloween? Of all of the upcoming movies that were advertised during this year's Super Bowl, which one are you most excited to watch, Novocaine, Smurfs, F1, Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, Jurassic World: Rebirth, Lilo & Stitch (live-action), How to Train Your Dragon (live-action), or Thunderbolts*?
