Help me pick a nostalgic movie series!!

Help me pick a nostalgic movie series to watch! To keep things fair, I filled this poll with only movie series that I've already seen. 

It's been a while since I've watched any of these (especially Indiana Jones) so there will still be some surprises for sure. I just really need to watch some feel good movies right now...

Looking forward to seeing what wins! Hope you guys are having a great weekend and until the next one, stay golden! :)

Has anyone suggested Band of Brothers to her yet?

HeirOfRohan

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!

Inkayon

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

Wilmer Garcia

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

Cinephile GS

ALL Karate Kid movies, not just the original trilogy lol

JohnnyTankTop

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.

Thundarr100

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)

Colin Ballendine

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

James V

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.

Ortizmo2000

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 :)

Yani Dodge

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

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.)

Jeremy Harris

Big trouble in little china!

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.

Eric Janssen

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.

Niklas

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.

Loneavenger96

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

BJ Stephens

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...

Eric Janssen

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

Wilmer Garcia

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.

Robert Haynes

The Power Of LOVEEEEE

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.

Richmond Hill

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. 🙂

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.

Eric Janssen

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.

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 :/

Daniel Horsman

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🙏🏾

Stoned Misthios

same

Thoko

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

Brandon Scott

And #3, the cheeziest of the lot.

Opti_Frog

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

Edward Olson

Thanks for letting us know.

Jason McQuirns

The FIRST Die Hard, sure.

Ortizmo2000

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

E Keys

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

The Golgothan

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).

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

David Olden

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!!!

Ellis Hugh

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

M four Movies

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?

Greg McDaniel

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.

Joe D. MacGuffinstuff

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

WhatTheSpock

The Disneyland ride is better. :)

Eric Janssen

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

It Hurt A Lot

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

James Reese

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

Misty Crom

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

Thomas Monk

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

Garren Haskell

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

Thomas Malley

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

Josh B

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

Wesley Eskildsen

Back to the Future... AFTER Indiana Jones.

Thomas Monk

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).

Chris Gronau

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

Alan Kobb

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.

Benjamin Preston

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

David Crabtree

Doctor Jones!!!

Brian - DocHikes - Hall

Back to the Future... no brainer

James Young

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

Charlie Keeler

100% with you, there.

Logan Kerlee

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

Joe Blankenship

Indy!

Gary Poussard

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

swoop_13-37

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

swoop_13-37

This is an incredibly hard choice!

Dan Careaga

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!

Daniel Gauvreau

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

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.

ScottK63

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

Krash Koi

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

The Recovery

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

Tom Tomlinson

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

Reavis Wade

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.

Ken

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

Greg Latta

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

Cole Jennett

Voted for Harry Potter

Niknok Seyer

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

Jill Finlayson

They are all good.

navghtivs

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

Darryl Low

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.

Vidcutter

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.

Ben Wheeler

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. :)

Eric Janssen

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

Cole Jennett

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.

This_Jedi_crafts

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.

Eric Janssen

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

William R Coughlan

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

Mac McNeely

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.

Andrew T

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

Josh G

Indy first. Then BTTF

Christopher French

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

R.BGames37

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

Brian Leonard

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.

Andy Jordan

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! 💛

Randee Carreno

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 💛

Ian

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!

Lisa Tosti

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.

Stephen W. Evans

In Italy we say: "however you fall, you fall well"

David Blake

Jurassic park is a classic guys come on. Everyone has seen Harry Potter like thousands of time lol

Corey

Back to the Future or Bust!

Patrick Mitchell

If I could suggest another choice, I'd like to see you react to the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. All in all my vote is Indiana jones

Josh Hess

She reacted to LOTR already.

For 'feel-good nostalgia' it's hard to beat Back to the Future.

Nerd Going Outside

What no Star Trek TOS?

Hylaea

Raiders of the Lost Ark is a beautiful delight

Galactic Factotum

Jesus, I hope Harry Potter doesn't win

Justin Credible

Harry Potter makes me 😭every time

How about all of the above? :D

Maja Axholt

That is a tough one
