Old SciFi, Them! (Campy B movie from the 1950s but still stands the test of time). If you want something edgy, Logan's Run (but you will have to cut out some scenes or show your reactions since it is from the 1960s :) but it is thought-provoking). Original Time Machine 1950s. Forbidden Plant, Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind, Alien Nation, Fantastic Voyage, fun, and the kids can watch and learn about the human body, the modern version is Inner Space.
Sandra Behrens
Maltese Falson? Have you reviewed this one? It has Humphrey Bogart in it.
Sandra Behrens
I also liked Now, Voyager, it has Betty Davis in it. I love Betty Davis.
Sandra Behrens
If it is old movies these are some of my favorites. Musical Cabin in the Sky from 1943. It has all the great actors and actresses and famous jazz players like Duke Ellington.

You want western? Got to watch YOUNG GUNS & YOUNG GUNS 2!
asar
Two favorites of mine are Matilda (1996) and Life is Beautiful (1997) - Fun fact: The leading actor in Life is Beautiful won an Oscar for his performance and there is a video online of that particular moment that shows the just how great and joyous a person he is!
asar
Kinda late with this comment but I absolutely agree! Superman is my favorite superhero and Christopher Reeve's portrayal of his is my absolute favorite! He really know how to completely separate Superman from Clark Kent and it's amazing to see the transformation he goes through to show just how distinct those two personas are. Just the music alone gives me chills when I watch his Superman movies. Although not all of them have the best storylines, just Christopher being this absolute beacon of hope is enough to make me rewatch again and again.

Superhero movies! You have to do at least a few of the classics, right? What about the original “Superman: The Movie” with Christopher Reeve? I mean, this is a true classic, and if you haven’t seen it, your reactions will be priceless! Also, Batman with Michael Keaton, and Spider-Man with Tobey Maguire. But please at least do Superman!
Barb Just Barb
The Towering Inferno is such a great choice!
Molly Campbell
I totally forgot to say Independence Day and Armageddon before! Please, please, please do either or both of them. They're so fun, I think you'd both really like them!
Molly Campbell
OMG, I forgot about Working Girl! Definitely need to do that one!
gbh0031
Thank you for suggesting What’s Up Doc? Fun movie.
gbh0031
Working Girl and 9 to 5 are good 80s movies too.
gbh0031
My favorite genre is Disaster Movies. My all time favorite movie is The Poseidon Adventure (1972). The seventies had many disaster movies; The Towering Inferno, Earthquake, Airport (1979), Airport 1975, Airport 77, The Concorde-Airport 79, Meteor, The Swarm. Some very good newer ones are Deep Impact, Dante’s Peak, and The Impossible (this has a young Tom Holland giving an amazing performance.) Another genre is Classics. Films like Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner, The African Queen, Gone With The Wind, North By Northwest, Rear Window, The Birds (we all need to see Jay react to this), The Man Who Knew Too Much, The Quiet Man, To Sir With Love.
jeremy patch powell
The movie Clue is pretty awesome and HILARIOUS. Can’t go wrong with Tim Curry. Would also like to see y’all do the other Naked Gun movies
Donna E.
I think comedy's 1978 Every which way but loose. Clint Eastwood. 1980 Any Which way you can. Clint Eastwood. 1997 Out to Sea. Walter Matthau and Jack Lemon. Rom Com 2003 How to lose a guy in 10 days. Kate Hudson.

Absolutely! Once upon a time in the West (1968).
Karen Silvera
How about the 50s teen dramas - Rebel without a Cause, East of Eden, West Side Story (the original 1961), and Splender in the grass?
Karen Silvera
If it has Ryan Reynolds I'm there! The Proposal - not the same genre - is my hands down watch when I need a laugh. Ryan Reynolds, Sandra Bullock and Betty White. How can you go wrong!!
Karen Silvera
I love Silverado. I've suggested it in the past....
Karen Silvera
Mystic River too.
Karen Silvera
If they do to kill a mockingbird they need to give Harper's friend Capote a chance too... In Cold Blood and/or Capote with Philip Seymour Hoffman (RIP Brilliant man)
Karen Silvera
Wow. That's a combination. Lol I'd love to see them also react (in addition to all of yours) to Sydney Poitier movies - the Defiant Ones, Lilies of the field, to Sir with love (they reacted to the song on their other channel), Raisin in the Sun and Guess who's coming to dinner.
Karen Silvera
Oooo great subcategory! Biopics. Love the idea.
Karen Silvera
I think there's a few Leonardo films very worthy of watching. Shutter Island, the Revenant, and Inception are a few... Though I think just going down his Wikipedia page would be a great few days - lol
Timothy Casto
Hereditary is probably one of the most disturbing horror movies I've ever seen.
Molly Campbell
Movies done by the Jim Henson Studio, like Labrynth and The Dark Crystal. Move 80s movies like Desperately Seeking Susan, Officer and a Gentleman. Also, Jim Carrey's more serious films, like The Truman Show. Maybe some classic James Bond from the Sean Connery era. More John Candy, specifically Summer Rental.
Jessica Pustka
The original Halloween is a classic
Rosie S

I watch this every year. Yes it is an older movie and Sandler took some of his humor from this movie. Like when they yell "you can do it Luther or way to go Luther"

BlueEyedRaven
A movie I loved watching as a kid during Halloween season was the comedy "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" starring Don Knotts. I know you won't be dissapointed.
Kristin D
I watched Officer and a Gentleman after all the recs here, and it was a good movie. Not as lighthearted, and actually pretty serious, with some very serious topics coming up. Not sure it can be compared to Pretty Woman. They would like it though, I think especially with them having military family members.
Julia Davison
Also officer and an gentleman after you watched,pretty women it stars Richard gere and Debra winger as well another romance and drama movie you both love it after pretty women .
Julia Davison
And the devil wears prada is brilliant film to watch with meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway
Julia Davison

I was born and 61. There are two films that were released in the early and mid-60s. To date, by far, two of my favorite films. One it’s based on a novel, written by Harper Lee… "To Kill a Mockingbird", film released in 1962. It won 3 Academy awards. One for best picture, one for best actor and one for best Art Direction. The other one is a movie that was released in 1967. It stars Katherine Hepburn, Sydney Portier and Spencer Tracy. There were a lot of first in making this film back in the day. Since you enjoyed Casablanca. I can’t help to think that you’ll enjoy these two films as well. Especially being educators. It’s a little glimpse of our history.
John
Thriller/Drama/Historical “The ghost and the darkness” starring Val Kilmer (Doc Holiday-Tombstone) and Michael Douglas….a must watch movie thriller with your favorite holiday coming up!…;) https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/ocQS692hIWYA2xEMWhlKV0jixax.jpg
Richard Wood Jr
Dramas like Running on Empty, Ordinary People, JFK Comedies like Stripes and Back to School also my favorite Wonder Boys.
Geoff Thomas
Comedys: Arthur (1981 Original Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli) Mrs. Doubtfire (Robin Williams and Sally Field Tootsie (Dustin Hoffman) Victor Victoria (Julie Andrews and James Garner) National Lampoon’s Animal House (John Belushi) Maybe a Hollywood Classics poll but there are so many. A suggestion—-The American Film Institute (AFI) put out a list of the 100 greatest films of all times. It was last updated in the early 2000s. All the great Hollywood classics are on this list maybe have each person pick 3 from the list for a poll.
Toby Smith
As you have a music channel, it would be good if you reacted to movies that star some of the musicians you've heard Cher - "Moonstruck" Diana Ross "Lady Sings the Blues" John Denver - "Oh God" Beatles - "Hard Days Night" David Bowie - "Lambryth" Dolly Parton - "9 to 5"
Callie Stephen
80’s classics: * Clue * Big Trouble in Little China * Ferris Bueller’s Day Off * Roadhouse * Can’t buy me love Based on True Stories/real events: * Invictus * 42 * Remember the titans * Catch Me if You Can * Argo * Apollo 13 * Erin Brockovich * Hidden Figures * Spotlight Spots Movies: * The Replacements * Remember The Titans * The Natural * 42 * Glory Road * Coach Carter * Ford vs Ferrari * Million Dollar Baby
Turnt SNACO
Sci-fi. Also, I think y'all would enjoy the movie Tomorrowland
Toby Smith
Mystery movie - suggest "Gone Girl" Romantic - suggest "Sleepless in Seattle" Gangster - suggest "Godfather" Unique Cartoon with Live - "Who Framed Roger Rabbit"
Carolyn Phelan
Typically when you say "genre" in film that means the overall style of movie. To do "actors" is a subdivision or maybe theme.
Nicole Christie
The others is a good choice
I am Jussina
I suggest some classic 80’s action films Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Running man, Total recall, true lies or Sylvester Stallone’s Rambo series starting with First blood or Harrison Ford’s the Fugitive, Air-force one , clear and present danger, blade runner P.S. I just remembered another called the Legend of Billie Jean that you both saw clips of on the Pat Benatar video we will be invincible.
Patty Estrada
"Blow" (biographical) "Big Fish" (fantasy) "Rock Star" "Detroit Rock City" (music not musicals) are all great suggestions.
Kara Davis
I agree about the 3rd one as well.
Patty Estrada
Yes to Stargate
Patty Estrada
I'm glad you liked it! It also has Paul Dano, who I'm particularly very fond of as an actor.
Michael J Paulus
I love those, although the second one is a very good action movie, but a bad Mission Impossible movie.
Kristin D
Deep Impact
Emily Gray
How about disaster movies!
Patty Estrada
Love the Drama suggestions, all are great choices.
Patty Estrada
I second "Catch Me If You Can" "Best In Show' and 'Gone With The Wind"
Bob Watson
1950s Sci-Fi in glorious black and white, well maybe a couple of color flicks.
Patty Estrada
I'd also like to see their reaction to the newer Star Trek movies. Well at least the ones directed by J . J Abrams. "Star Trek" (2009) and "Star Trek Into The Darkness' (2013). The third one kind of sucked, IMO.
Lisa Rhodes
Identity you would love. For suspense.
Lisa Rhodes
Hank's has a contagious laugh in that movie.
Patty Estrada
"Arrival" is a good suggestion.
Patty Estrada
I prefer the Judy Garland version from 1954, but I think them reacting to any of the four adaptations of "A Star Is Born" would be nice.
Jennifer Sanchez
Money Pit is such a great comedy! I can’t stop laughing when I watch this.
Patty Estrada
I'd love to see their reaction to "Rockstar"
Patty Estrada
I second "No Country for Old Men" it's a Neo-Western Thriller directed by The Coen Brother's, who ya'll really liked.
Patty Estrada
Mine too.
Patty Estrada
Yes, or "Bridge of Spies" "Notorious" (1946), "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy", "The Imitation Game", "Argo"
Lisa Rhodes
As for Genres you can do everything from theme to actor. For instance Actor-Tom Hank's Movies The Burbs, The Money Pit, Castaway, That thing you do and so on and so on. Horror- Real True to life Horror -Cujo, Jaws, The Birds so many genres in Horror Comedy Classic's 80's Rom Com Holiday see.
Jayce
I think they would love Facing The Giants. Football and family. That sound like their kind of movie.
Lisa Rhodes
I am a big Horror movie buff and there is so many genres of horror . Horror comedy - Shaun of the Dead very funny Scouts guide Evil Dead and Tucker and Dale vrs. Evil. Then we have Romero and Savini movies ( zombies) Night of the living dead, Then there is monster Frankenstein, Mummy Wolfman ( Classic An american werewolf in London) Bram's Stoker's Dracula to more funny Monster Squad. Then we have ghost - House on Haunted Hill, Thirteen ghosts, The Others, We have slasher, ( Freddy, Michael Myers(Halloween)Jason Vorhees( Friday the 13th) Seasonal Holiday Horror, Trick or Treat, Krampus, My Bloody Valentine . to horror masters Hitchcock's , Vincent Price, Savini, Romero, King to Tarantino are among the greats.It is not just for Halloween .
Douglas Custard
Should watch Stallone's first Comedy movie 'Oscar'. It's very funny.
KotaMane
I HAVE A FILM FOR YOUUUUU!!!!! The ghost and the darkness, it's a film based on true events and its a thriller. Has your boy Val Kilmer and Micheal Douglas. About the the lions of tsavo and col. Paterson mission to build the bridge across the river while trying to protect the people from the Lions.
Brad West
Agreed! Would be a great choice for them to watch
pat jones
Western
Carolyn Phelan
I wasn't sure about the 3rd one. The next ones never should have been made in my opinion
Troy
I love your recommendations. Meant to tell you. I finally got around to watching Looper this past weekend. It was really good, I was completely surprised by it! There were a lot of actors in there that I had no clue would be in it. I knew Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt were in it, but I had no clue Emily Blunt and Jeff Daniels were also in it. This was a very good movie!
Jorge De La Torriente
Hi Jay and Amber. How about faith-based films! The following films are produced and directed by the Kendrick brothers are well worth your reactions. They are: FLY WHEEL; FACING THE GIANTS; FIREPROOF; COURAGEOUS; WAR ROOM, and OVERCOMER. Enjoy!
Matt van der Harten
"Inspired" is a fairly strong word, but okay ;)
Jeff Mills
Hey Amber and Jay! I used to work in the video store business during the 1990s. I spent a decade doing it and loved it. I’ll suggest some genres for y’all: Cult Classics: movies that are lesser-known but loved by those who have seen them Slasher/Thriller: horror movie villains for Halloween Musicals: Movies like Xanadu, The Wiz, Chicago, etc. Throwback Thursday: how about a movie prior to 2000? For example, 80s or 90s movies or even further back? Best Westerns: Classic western films from the past and recent ones. Laugh Out Loud Funny: Slapstick comedies like Airplane, Young Frankenstein, etc. Based on a True Story: movies based on real people and events
Deborah Lewis
Urban Cowboy, or As Good as it Gets😉🤠🥰
Kristin D
They saw Men in Tights a while back, and liked it. There's a lot of us wanting them to watch Young Frankenstein for Halloween. One of Brooks's best movies!
Kristin D
OMG! Maverick, yes please, I'm going to go edit my post and add that to comedy, and also Three Amigos.
Kristin D
Some classic Black & White movies would be fun. They are highly entertaining, and relied in good writing and acting, not special effects.
Kristin D
Yes, since they've already seen Men in Tights, they really need to go watch the movie that inspired it, Prince of Thieves.
David Croft-Ogawa
For horror… Rosemary’s Baby, The Changeling (George C. Scott starring), It’s Alive, and The Others.
William Benton
I am only going to recommend one small movie. Breaking Away. It is from 1979 and is a coming of age movie as well as a sports movie. Great characters. Funny, heartfelt, and a damn exciting ending. I can never not watch it when I come across it.
Alice Coulter
SPORTS~Major League, Tin Cup, Field Of Dreams, Jerry McGuire MUSIC~That Thing You Do! (Tom Hanks), Urban Cowboy (Travolta), Rock Star, Coal Minor's Daughter ROMANCE/COMEDY~Somethings Gotta Give (Nicholson/Keaton) WESTERNS~The Quick and The Dead, Young Guns COMEDY WESTERNS~Maverick, Three Amigos DRAMA/CRIME~Blow, Goodfellas MYSTERY~Secret Window HITCHCOCK~The Birds, Rear Window, Vertigo ...I know you said you've got Horror covered but~American Werewolf In London, Creep Show are both more horror/comedy, especially Creep Show (the original)
Deb Ralston
Genres—, Classic old time Hollywood, Action, Hitchcock movies, Rom-com
Shyam Nair
Action/Drama : Braveheart, Gladiator Crime/Drama : Godfather, Godfather 2
Chuck
As for action... I suggested this a few times... "First Blood". It is the beginning of a 5-movie series starring Sylvester Stallone. He plays an iconic character that I've heard Jay say he's heard the name, but has no idea about it. I think it would be rewarding for him to place a face (Stallone) to the character name. Ssshhhh... don't give it away. The first of the series is a deep dive into a Vietnam vet's struggle with PTSD and an uncaring nation trying to forget. "They drew first blood, not me."
Chuck
"Silverado" was a good, fun, action-packed western with a great cast.
Chuck
Now that you've been introduced to Mel Brooks, for comedy I suggest anything by him: "History of the World Part One", "Spaceballs", "Robinhood, Men in Tights", "Young Frankenstein" are a few of his funnier ones.
Leesa
Musicals, the general standard genres- comedy, drama, sports or sport-adjacent, classic, mystery, suspense, etc. It makes it easier to suggest or choose when the category is narrowed down.
Chuck
As for music, "Streets of Fire" is labeled as a rock and roll fantasy. Most of the AMAZING soundtrack was written by the now-deceased, Jim Steinman, who wrote most of Meatloaf's songs. I picture it set in the same universe as "The Mask", a wierdly off-kilter version of our universe.
Kristin D
Yes, they need to watch the Alien series indeed. Robert Greffey posted above that perhaps it would be an excellent pick for Halloween since it's also a horro flick.
Chuck
Missing: The Alien series (Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien Ressurection). Fantastic scifi/horror. "In space, no one hears you scream."
Chuck
Lady Hawke, another great movie. Medieval/magical fantasy. Hauer and Broderick played well off of each other.
Matt van der Harten
Action and/or Drama: Whiplash (2014), The Matrix Revolutions (2003) [please finish the trilogy], Boiling Point (2021), Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) Tarantino: Inglourious Basterds (2009), Django Unchained (2012), The Hateful Eight (2015)
Chuck
Yes!! Watching the Cusacks work together was fun. Minnie Driver was adorable. "You're a psycho!" "No. This is business."
Chuck
Fifth Element!! Great scifi/fantasy. One of my favorites.
Matt van der Harten
I think the Hunger Games movies are a good choice too!
Matt van der Harten
I second Kingdom of Heaven.
Jayce
They have reacted to Indiana Jones 3.
Lisa Rhodes
12 Monkeys- Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt. Fight Club- Brad Pitt and Ed Nortin
Lisa Rhodes
Comedy - That thing you Do -Tom Hanks The Burbs- Tom Hanks The Money Pitt_-Tom Hanks

The Birds. Come on Jay I am terrified of birds like you . I can watch this movie although this movie was the reason I am terrified of birds.
Lisa Rhodes
Train To Busan is excellent but maybe be to scary for zombie effect.
Lisa Rhodes
Horror for Halloween Slashers- Friday the thirteenth part 6 is my favorite. Halloween 2 Creepy - Zombie Creep Show 1 or 2 Night of the Living Dead Scout Guides to Zombie Apocalypse World War Z The Others- Nichole Kidmen House on Haunted Hill

Classic Comedy: Animal House Revenge of the Nerds.
prhodan
A great detective movie, with a Christmas backdrop is The Thin Man, stars William Powell and Myra Loy. Very popular movie, they made 4 sequels. This is classic 1930's Hollywood.
prhodan
SciFi, try The Fifth Element (stars Bruce Willis); For Comedy, try Doc Hollywood, or The Truth about Cats and Dogs, for a Classic thriller, try The Third Man (stars Orson Welles) It is a classic!
partikle
RomCom: "The Truth About Cats and Dogs" I haven't seen anyone react to this on YT and it was a critical and modest box office hit in the mid-90s. Be the first! Hollywood Classic: "The Best Years of Our Lives" A post-war film that is surprisingly relevant today, it won practically every academy award for the year 1946. I'd love to see the both of you react to this.
Carolyn Phelan
I think we may be from the same age bracket. 😁 or you are just an old soul. I,too,like the Albert Finney Orient Express. Wonder if they would recognize "Ilsa"?
Katie Jackson
I love Little Giants! No one ever recommends it
Raven Dark
Sister Act, Grumpy Old Men, and Three Men and a Baby are all really good, funny movies I think you guys would love, and all have sequels that are as good or better. I agree with others who mentioned Schindler's List for a drama. It's a hard watch, but it's a damn good film.
jdubb
Primal Fear (Mystery, Legal, Thriller) LA Confidential (Crime, Thriller, Drama, Mystery) Se7en (Crime, Thriller, Drama, Mystery) Train to Busan (Horror, Thriller)

Stargate is a lot of fun!!
precious926
Musicals: Hamilton (!!!); Chicago; Dreamgirls Drama: Me Before You Comedy: Beverly Hills Cop; Sweet Home Alabama
Jimmie V
Arthouse film. The filmmaker David Lynch is the premiere American director in that department. "Eraserhead" was his first film, and arguably most experimental, so it's probably the best place to start (it's where I did), but directors like Lars von Trier, Werner Herzog and Michael Haneke are also great. I doubt this will be the first (or even 2nd or 3rd) genre to win this kind of poll, but it's something you definitely want to get into down the line when you want to really dive into some dense/deep films. If you thought Pulp Fiction was jarring, you'll be in for quite a ride with this kind of filmmaking.
Jimmie V
Grosse Pointe Blank is my favorite comedy of all time. Good pick.
Jennifer Sanchez
Hunger Games!!!
Jocelyn Haeberle
Two of my faves!
Chantal
Comedies like What About Bob and Death Becomes Her, Sci Fi like The Abyss, Stargate. Blade (Wesley Snipes) is kind of horror but is also the first unexpected but very successful superhero movie based on a Marvel comic and helped launch the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Iron Man the next movie they released.
Jocelyn Haeberle
Mystery/Suspense - Murder on the Orient Express (the Albert Finney one!) Fantasy/Romance Ladyhawke - (has a great techno soundtrack and fight scenes to satisfy anyone.) Comedy - What's Up, Doc? (Hi-lar-i-ous!) Pillow Talk &/or Lover Come Back (Again, hilarious!) The Russians Are Coming! The Russians Are Coming!(Totally ridiculous, but totally fun!) I could literally go on for days (want proof? See my movie list on Facebook 😉) but I will spare you that, for now.
Cat Whisperer
Musicals are my favorites: I've seen "Sister Act" mentioned, and I second that. My all-time favorite is "The Sound of Music"! I feel this is a good fit, for y'all cuz it's got music (you're music reacters), kids (y'all love kids), a little drama, a little humor, and the scenery is UNbelievable!! "Mama Mia", with Meryl Streep Rom-com: "Arthur"; it's also a little "fish outta water"-type. Comedy: Almost anything with Whoopi Goldberg: "Burglar", "Jumpin' Jack Flash", "Boys on the Side" Sci-Fi: "Close Encounters", "Cacoon" Drama: "Schindler's List" Shoot 'Em Ups: "Terminator 2" (WAAAY better than 1), "Rambo 1 and 2" (the other ones after that weren't as good; no. 3 was okay) "Bounty Hunter" (true story, with Keira Knightly) "Set it Off", with Queen Latifah
Jennifer Sanchez
Another movie to add to the Drama category: Mystic River…such a great movie

Patty Estrada
Great suggestion.
Patty Estrada
I second “Edge of Tomorrow” “Minority Report” “Inception” and “Interstellar”
Patty Estrada
I’m second Music Biopics and Coming of Age...and both of these movies.

The Game with Micheal Douglas & Sean Penn will have you on the edge of your seat. Also, "A Simple Plan" with Billy Bob Thornton, Bill Paxton & Briget Fonda is a good movie. What would you do if you found a crashed airplane with dead pilot & a duffle bag containing over 4 million dollars in it?
Sean colenso
Peter Jackson's Heavenly Creatures is a good one. It tells the true story of 2 friends that murdered one of the friends mother. Because they were only 15, they escaped the death penalty. This was Kate Winslet's first movie & also starred Melanie Lynskey.
JL Green
Genre specific would be nice. How about 3 weeks dedicated to classic comedies followed by 3 weeks of professions dedicated to helping humanity such as doctors, lawyers, teachers and then 3 weeks of thrillers in a specific decade like 60's, 70's, 80's...

Awhile ago I suggested doing Academy Award best movies. You've got a number of them already. These were the best of each year. However, maybe start in the 60s then 70s, etc.
Robert Greffey
If they were looking for a new film series to start, the Mission Impossible movies are consistent bangers overall.
Shutter Crazy
Rounders, The Last Dragon, Oceans 11 (Clooney version), Schindler’s List, Rambo: First Blood, Twins
Karen Silvera
Oh me too! Add The Goodbye Girl! Always, and the Stakeout are great too.
Carolyn Phelan
They have reacted to the first two Indiana Jones films. I personally don't care for the second one but did enjoy the third one with Sean Connery. Those after that are mediocre at best.
Carolyn Phelan
Yes to "Mr. Holland's Opus" For non musicians the word Opus means work.
Stephanie Wahl
Sci-fi. You haven’t explored that genre much and there’s tons of great movies out there.

Love Return to Me
Carolyn Phelan
Robert...no offense. I am aware it is a remake of "Seven Samurai" alas I have seen it and I am older than that movie. So many movies here recommended are only from around 1980 to present. I look at Musical recommendations and they are more of the modern era. There are some older ones that aren't hokie but seem shuffled. I probably would recommend "Seven Samurai" as a foreign film. I was just going on the original actually named Magnificent Seven. So I guess it's Tomayto...tomato. 😎😆

coal miners daughter is a good one. and of course hunger games
Robert Greffey
As much as I like The Magnificent Seven, I will take some exception to you characterizing it as the "original" when it's a remake of Akira Kurosawa's classic Seven Samurai (1954). 😉 But both make for a fun watch. [edit] Also, glad someone else besides me brings up Citizen Kane from time to time. Thanks.

And since you teased the October horror movie thing, my trio of suggestions for that might be: The Exorcist The Thing Hereditary
Carolyn Phelan
Sports: "The Pride of the Yankees" (1942) based on life of Lou Gehrig; "For Love of the Game" (1999) -baseball or"The Natural " (1984) baseball Robert Redford Classic (anything pre-1970): "Charade" (1964) Suspense and romance; "Citizen Kane" (1941) drama and suspense considered the best film ever made on many official lists Western: "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence " (1962) John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart; "The Magnificent Seven [original] (1960) Yul Brunner and Steve McQueen

I know musicals are difficult because yu have to edit most of the songs to death but I'd like to see you react to these musicals which have heartwarming storylines: * "Mr. Holland's Opus" -- more of a drama with music but also about teaching * "Yesterday" -- great Beatles music, both comedy and drama * "The Wiz" -- based on the Wizard of Oz with a similar storyline but different music and a Black cast. I'm also fond of action and think you'll like these:: • Indiana Jones series in this order: "Raiders of the Lost Ark," "Temple of Doom," "Last Crusade," and "Crystal Skull". • "Eagle Eye" • "Avatar" (also a sequel) Animated films -- mostly Pixar/Disney, which you might have already seen because, you know, kid-friendly movies that adults can also enjoy. Some also have qualities of an action movie: • "Encanto" (also a musica) • "Monsters Inc." • "Inside Out" • "The Incredibles" and the sequel • "Mulan" (also a musical plus there's a live action version as well) • "Moana" (also a musical) • "How to Train Your Dragon" (two sequels) • "Brave" • "Tangle" (also a musical)

Country - “Remember When” Alan Jackson Comedy - “Rat Race” hilarious!
Robert Greffey
I'm a sucker for sci-fi, so usually good with that. Gattaca -- Blade Runner (Final Cut 2007) -- Arrival Should sci-fi win, I would make one programming suggestion, and save the movie Alien for October and the horror movie poll.

A Star is Born w/ Barbara Streisand and Kris Kristofferson. Amber this will be your favorite movie. Barbara's legendary singing and acting. Kristofferson, a country hall of fame singer and actor. The music's so perfect. (Paul Williams)

The Abyss. Secretariat. Meet Joe Black. The Holiday (the one with Jack Black and Cameron Diaz). Since you’ve done several Rocky’s you should do Stallone’s other big series Rambo.
John DelVecchio
Comedy Drama - “Parenthood” with Steve Martin. “JoJo Rabbit”. Tremendous.

Western “once upon a time in the west”….older but some say the best directed western ever. Sports “Seabiscuit” (horse racing) Jeff Bridges (the dude - Big Lobowski) “The Natural” Robert Redford (baseball) Feel good “Seabiscuit”. We bought a zoo” Matt Damon
Carolyn Phelan
They asked for GENRE. So first list a genre and then list one or two movies from that genre. I also recommend you add the year to your movie of choice. A wide variety of ages here and some movies have the same title whether it's a remake or not. I think when we give them so many titles, it's a challenge to narrow it down.

Comedy's for sure , A good one I know you would enjoy is Out to Sea with Walter Matthau and Jack Lemon. Another comedy would be The Private Eyes with Don Knott's and Tim Conway.

How about some classic older war movies like Bridge over the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia, or maybe a Bridge to far.

Since you’re already doing spooky movies for spooky season. I highly recommend more 80s and 90s comedies. Encino Man, Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, Bio Dome, Weekend at Bernie’s, License To Drive, 10 Things I Hate About You, Bring It On, Easy Money, Lucas, Teen Wolf, Captain Ron, Dumb and Dumber
Rollo Tomassi
I’m telling ya fam … “The Descendants” with George Clooney (2011). It’s a Comedy/Drama about family that takes place in Hawaii. I’ve been with you folks long enough to know what’s a home run on this channel … this is one of them. Batter up?
Shane Vela
Spy, espionage type movies like the Bourne series
Marc Fewell
You really need to watch The Godfather as well.
Kathy Carter
Idk what genre they’d be, maybe musical theater, Victor Victoria with Julie Andrews, Chicago with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Queen Latifah and a little 80s High School Football comedy call Wildcats with Goldie Hawn, Wesley Snipes and Woody Harlson 😬
Marc Fewell
I am still waiting for you to see The Hitmans Bodyguard. I know it's not rated that high, but I really liked it. I think the main reason I want you to see it is that it hits everything you like about movies. Lots of action, a lot of humor, a bit of a love story, and a great cast.
Brad West
Have you guys done a real western yet (Blazing Saddles doesn't count)...you should try a few. 'Unforgiven' is outstanding, but there are countless good options.
Ashley Nichole
I really want to see you react to Jerry Maguire!
Adam Wyler
I still would love for you to watch 4 different Richard Dreyfuss films....Close Encounters Of The 3rd Kind...Down & Out In Beverly Hills....Mr Holland's Opus....& The American President. Have Richard Dreyfuss as your theme for the month!
Amanda Wilmot
Oh, oh! Castaway is good one also with Tom Hanks, it's also a drama

Maybe some military type films. You could start with the greatest film ever made, Lawrence of Arabia. (The restored edition overseen by Steven Spielberg)

More horror, comedy & Psychological thriller, like Psycho & Silence Of The Lambs were such fun watches with you 2. And more romcom, Jay's been an example of what I say is most common with people & Romcoms, the idea of what a "romcom" is deters, but a good, entertaining & engaging movie is not bound by its subgenre. Plus as much as fall is horror movie season I'd say it's just as much romcom season, movies you cuddle up to watch.
Casey Salley
Horror movies for Halloween, or comedies

Rom coms from the 90’s
