Sci-Fi Poll
Added 2023-02-15 19:31:17 +0000 UTCSorry the poll got a bit delayed this morning! Help me pick a sci-fi flick!
Comments
Oh man yes, Holes is a must watch.
mrhalfbit
2023-02-25 22:15:00 +0000 UTCWhy does it matter if its off-topic though? Its not like people voted for her to restrict the choices to pure sci-fi. She just set that topic on a whim because she had certain films in mind that she wanted to watch.
Thoko
2023-02-24 00:15:07 +0000 UTCBut it's kinda off topic, right? She's asking for a sci-fi movie, and includes a historical drama.
Gabriel Burns
2023-02-23 10:11:07 +0000 UTCDamn. Apollo 13 is one of my favorites.
Edwin
2023-02-23 01:38:19 +0000 UTCI know, I’m burnt out on Galaxy Quest.
Joe Blankenship
2023-02-22 22:16:15 +0000 UTCI just thought about it, and if you've never seen the movie Holes, with Shia Lebouf, that should 10000% go on one of your later polls. Fantastic film.
Alexander Dashiell
2023-02-21 12:16:29 +0000 UTCIf this is the new Planet of the Apes on the poll then I’m so sad it keeps losing.
Randy Hooper
2023-02-21 01:20:57 +0000 UTCOr maybe she'll put Ex-Machina on a poll and it will tie with something else. Won't that be fun?
Richard Maurer
2023-02-20 21:29:47 +0000 UTCIt worked out fine. She has already put Galaxy Quest on this week's schedule and I assume she will put Ex Machina on next week's schedule.
Thoko
2023-02-20 20:54:26 +0000 UTCThis is getting ridiculous.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-20 15:57:13 +0000 UTCThink we need a Patreon exclusive LIVE watch along with Nat, and Galaxy Quest seems to be a good one to start with..
Baggie Mark
2023-02-20 13:49:24 +0000 UTCOMG not again.... Galaxy Quest tie's again .... lol
Baggie Mark
2023-02-20 13:47:42 +0000 UTCDouble Feature! Double Feature!
Mastervodo
2023-02-20 11:46:27 +0000 UTCAnother run off poll since this one is so close?
Bob Hanflig
2023-02-20 09:36:17 +0000 UTCYes! We did it again! Now she'll be forced to follow through with her previous promise to watch both winners
Thoko
2023-02-20 07:47:49 +0000 UTC@Thoko - Everything you said is correct, but this is not a flaw in my argument at all because as I stated earlier in this thread all films are fiction and I never claimed otherwise. Films that are (in theory) completely factual are known as documentaries. When I said Apollo 13 actually happened I was obviously referring to the moon mission itself not the film, and the part of the sentence where I said it was science "fact", fact was in quotes, meaning not to be taken literally. Once again, Apollo 13 is a historical drama (fiction), The Martian is science fiction.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-20 06:33:54 +0000 UTCOh no. Not again!
Marc Goldman
2023-02-20 00:47:57 +0000 UTCRichard, the flaw in your argument is that most of the finer details of any historical event are never recorded. Therefore, any historical film is going to have significant portions of it that are NOT facts at all. Then, add the fact that screen writers are probably changing people's personalities to make them more likeable, relatable etc or just to build tension. There is so much craft involved that it becomes a work of fiction and only *based* on facts.
Thoko
2023-02-20 00:40:09 +0000 UTCI stand by my definition of science fiction for The Martian. A manned Mars expedition has not occured yet, so it still defined as sci-fi, even though it is technically possible to do so. Films about the first manned mission to the Moon were made right up to the time when it actually happened, and all those films are still considered science fiction to this day. No reason for the The Martian to viewed differently.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-19 23:15:23 +0000 UTCPlease stop. No matter how many times people ask reactors to watch Trek first they never do. And they enjoy GQ anyway. It's just sad at this point.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-19 23:00:20 +0000 UTCno...there is no need of that. I watched it before I ever watch Star Trek and also in more recent years and is the same thing, Star Trek is not needed at all or any sci fi movie to appreciate it
Guillermo Antonio Ricci Alvarez
2023-02-19 21:30:57 +0000 UTCThe Martian is 100% science fiction
Jason Dolan
2023-02-19 17:33:03 +0000 UTC@Richard I have a very hard time deciding whether to place The Martian in the sci-fi category or not. Apollo 13 is absolutely an historical drama (it may be technically fiction, but it doesn't fictionalize science in any way). The Martian is maybe a science-y adventure? I mean, the most fictionalized aspect of the movie is the scale of devastation of the inital storm... other than that is not that implausible, and more importantly science and technology are correct (more correct than most non-scifi movies, even). My definition of sci-fi is "a work of fiction where (one of) the main focus is alternative and/or futuristic science or tech". That's why I don't consider, for instance, Star Wars very much sci-fi, more "futuristic fantasy" (DISCLAIMER: that's my own personal categorization). It's true that The Martian is a "what if" scenario, because no one went to Mars, yet. But the achievement by itself is not (strictly speaking) the science or the technology. If they haven't made up any science, and based the movie around it, how is it science fiction? One could say that in order to achieve that goal we must necessarily invent new tech and improve our science... I am very undecided on this.
Fostena
2023-02-19 17:31:31 +0000 UTCTo really appreciate Galaxy Quest you need to watch a healthy amount of Star Trek first.
Bob Thompson
2023-02-19 17:28:26 +0000 UTCRise would win that poll easily. Like it or not classics never get as much support as new versions, unless the new version is awful. That being said I'm down for that poll, just as long as either good version of PotA gets watched. Not Tim Burton version though, no need to go through that again.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-19 16:15:30 +0000 UTC@ Thoko - Apollo 13 actually happened so it is science "fact". No one has been to Mars yet, so The Martian is still considered science fiction, even if it's technically possible to go to Mars. It's a fine line, but the line exists. Even if humans go to Mars in the future The Martian would still be considered science fiction as no one had done it at the time the film was made, unlike Apollo 13.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-19 16:02:23 +0000 UTCGQ. Mmmmk. shm
Stefan Johannsson
2023-02-19 13:20:48 +0000 UTCThomas, I'm not sure I agree with your logic. "The Martian" is based on real-world technology but it is considered science fiction
Thoko
2023-02-19 09:17:59 +0000 UTCI agree with OP. It doesn't matter how fictionalized it is, it isn't "science fiction", since everything involved here was based on real-world technology, not imagined technologies or changes in the culture or environment. It's really just a drama. At this point, could even be considered a period-piece or historical drama.
Thomas Yanez
2023-02-18 20:10:19 +0000 UTCAll non-documentary movies are technically fiction (and, lets face it, many documentaries are at least part fiction). But the correct category for Apollo 13 would be historical drama, since it depicts historical fact, albeit in a fictionalized account.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-18 17:05:18 +0000 UTCIt's not a documentary. Even though it is based on a true story, fiction is the correct genre.
Martin
2023-02-18 09:25:54 +0000 UTCWell, to be more fair, planet of the apes is based on a true story but with some Hollywood embellishments. Our inferior, primitive species of apes ("homo sapiens") rose up against and overthrew the real humans ("homo neanderthalis")
Thoko
2023-02-18 06:26:10 +0000 UTCI like that Apollo 13 is in sci-fi... like... yeah, that shit didn't happen. Stanley Kubrick directed every single 1960's space flight mission! Tinfoil hats for everyone! Planet of the Apes though, that's actually REAL!
Jason Dolan
2023-02-18 03:11:14 +0000 UTCOr just make an executive decision and watch it without a poll.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-18 02:02:18 +0000 UTCplease keep putting planet of the apes into these polls until it wins
Jordan Perkins
2023-02-18 01:33:18 +0000 UTCSorry, that was @ Thoko. In full agreement with you about Godzilla and monster movies in general - we need more!
Richard Maurer
2023-02-17 21:28:16 +0000 UTCI didn't think he'd replied lol. I only suggest Godzilla because we need some monster movies reaction.
Chris Henderson
2023-02-17 20:51:44 +0000 UTCRepeating the same comment is Boring.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-17 20:07:17 +0000 UTCApes not together for polls.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-17 20:05:19 +0000 UTCshe's likely to love galaxy quest, plus it's a very fun comedy that also has heart. while i voted for ex-machina because i think it's a powerful story that's very well told, when votes are this close we can be confident we're almost certainly going to see both films in the nearish future, so i'm good with whatever happens.
Steve
2023-02-17 16:34:56 +0000 UTCYou absolutely do not need to watch Trek to enjoy GQ, what a terrible take.
JohnnyTankTop
2023-02-17 16:01:15 +0000 UTCApollo 13 and Ex Machina are both fantastic.. but Galaxy Quest has to be the choice here.
JohnnyTankTop
2023-02-17 15:58:15 +0000 UTCAn interesting poll would be Planet of the Apes (1968) Planet of the Apes (2001) Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) Like how many votes the reboot would get over the original.
AJ Miller
2023-02-17 12:13:45 +0000 UTCDoes Apollo 13 count as science fiction?
Emery Sea
2023-02-17 11:06:57 +0000 UTC@RonJon I didn't even consider its genre-appropriateness, lol. But you're right. Decidedly not sci-fi.
Brandon Scott
2023-02-17 10:08:53 +0000 UTCI said "boring"
Thoko
2023-02-17 08:30:52 +0000 UTCWhat?
Chris Henderson
2023-02-17 07:14:00 +0000 UTCBoring
Thoko
2023-02-17 06:42:27 +0000 UTCI didn't vote against Apollo 13 for that reason. I just feel that real Sci-Fi is more interesting to watch and to see a reaction to
Thoko
2023-02-17 06:40:15 +0000 UTCThey are both very good, but have a very different vibe
Thoko
2023-02-17 06:24:29 +0000 UTCTrue, their are a few flaws
DevilsQueen
2023-02-17 06:23:50 +0000 UTCI enjoyed the first few seasons quite a bit, but I have mixed feelings about the last several seasons. In particular I was underwhelmed by the lack of danger/criminality from the actual criminals. They were less dangerous than the regular characters
Thoko
2023-02-17 06:22:13 +0000 UTCNah, that's not a reason not to watch GQ. The reason is that GQ is a three star movie and the others are four and five star films.
Opti_Frog
2023-02-17 03:31:13 +0000 UTCNot sure i could choose between them.
Opti_Frog
2023-02-17 03:29:50 +0000 UTCI would mind seeing her react to Godzilla.
Chris Henderson
2023-02-17 03:14:10 +0000 UTCNo reactor has ever watched Trek before GQ, yet somehow they all love it. Can we get past this tired "You gotta watch Star Trek first!" thing? It nevers works and is a waste of everybody's time.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-17 01:18:50 +0000 UTCOr she could just announce that she's watching PotA next and skip the charade of a rigged poll - just a thought.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-17 01:13:51 +0000 UTCSounds good to me.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-17 01:09:52 +0000 UTCNo, but that's why I made it clear in my comment ;)
Rek
2023-02-17 01:01:06 +0000 UTCBut did she ever clarify that she wants to watch that version of Planet of the Apes?
Thoko
2023-02-17 00:29:05 +0000 UTCDoes this mean that Ex Machina is the winner since she already promised to watch Galaxy Quest? *gleefully hoping* :)
PureGonzo
2023-02-16 23:20:51 +0000 UTCplease rig the next poll somehow 😭 put planet of the apes with a bunch of awful choices
Jamie A-H
2023-02-16 22:36:24 +0000 UTCI voted Galaxy Quest on the last two polls, but when its put alongside the 1968 planet of the apes, there's no comparison. If you've never seen it, planet of the apes is a must watch!
Rek
2023-02-16 22:29:49 +0000 UTCAnd considering she disliked Spaceballs and parodies in general it's probably a good thing she hasn't seen Star Trek
Danishprince
2023-02-16 22:15:46 +0000 UTCI fully believed apes together strong yet we keep losing the polls :(
Danishprince
2023-02-16 22:14:23 +0000 UTCIt's like watching Spaceball without ever seen Star Wars.
Daniel Vezina
2023-02-16 22:02:25 +0000 UTCIt would have my vote if it was for the newer trilogy, but not for the old ones. Which planet of the apes is it?
jamie jones
2023-02-16 21:54:19 +0000 UTCbahahaha I was really only thinking about the space part rather than the fiction...😂 it does look like I'm a conspiracy theorist now huh?
Natalie Gold
2023-02-16 20:59:15 +0000 UTCfeel free to always leave and come back if you see stuff that interests you when I post on YouTube! No one should ever pay for content they're not interested in :)
Natalie Gold
2023-02-16 20:58:14 +0000 UTCbahahha I'm gonna keep tryin!
Natalie Gold
2023-02-16 20:57:21 +0000 UTCWonder which planet of the apes is on the poll? Could sway my vote
Naturekitty5309
2023-02-16 20:20:58 +0000 UTChas anything lost a poll as many times as planet of the apes
Jamie A-H
2023-02-16 20:10:52 +0000 UTCI'm actually curious if anyone of you also would want 'the 100" on her channel?
DevilsQueen
2023-02-16 19:50:11 +0000 UTCLet's be clear. Galaxy Quest is "loosely based on actual events" (events that the press refuses to acknowledge) while Apollo 13 is a true story. In that respect they're worlds apart. :-))
Alan Kobb
2023-02-16 19:34:45 +0000 UTCYou're not being pedantic. However, this controversy has brought to the front a small group that is claiming that Galaxy Quest is a documentary. Personally I believe that Galaxy Quest is "loosely based on actual events", while Apollo 13 is a true story.
Alan Kobb
2023-02-16 19:32:10 +0000 UTCApollo 13 is probably the best reaction movie on the poll, but since it's not getting love, I went with Galaxy Quest.
TwistedMagoo
2023-02-16 18:21:25 +0000 UTCWhile that's true - it'll be great fun telling her about each reference n the comments. So that's why Galaxy Quest has my vote. If Planet of the Apes were closer that would have my vote.
Logan Kerlee
2023-02-16 18:11:16 +0000 UTCSimply not true.
Erik Stevenson
2023-02-16 17:33:32 +0000 UTCStar Trek, 1/2 the joke in Galaxy Quest are gonna go over your head
Daniel Vezina
2023-02-16 17:24:40 +0000 UTCIf you know nothing about
Daniel Vezina
2023-02-16 17:23:45 +0000 UTCAnd a TV show.
SilentBobFather
2023-02-16 16:42:39 +0000 UTCEx Machina is picking up steam!
tezster
2023-02-16 16:30:43 +0000 UTCI really hope that's not why people aren't voting for Apollo 13. Sure, it technically belongs in a 'historical drama' poll, but okay, it's in a sci-fi poll, so what? Vote for it if want. Not voting for it because it's in the "wrong" poll seems needlessly pedantic.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-16 15:52:29 +0000 UTCLet's go Ex Machina! It was my favorite modern sci-fi film for a while until Blade Runner 2049 came along.
Slick447
2023-02-16 15:48:53 +0000 UTCI've been told that on occasion I can be funny, So yes.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-16 15:44:11 +0000 UTCGreat movie, but pretty decidedly not Sci-Fi, so doesn't really fit the poll
RonJon
2023-02-16 14:40:06 +0000 UTCI'm so sad that Apollo 13 isn't getting any love. Such a well made, classic film
Brandon Scott
2023-02-16 14:19:45 +0000 UTCGalaxy Quest by a country mile.
History Nuggets
2023-02-16 14:00:37 +0000 UTCNo thanks, not when the shows being watched are the last of us and the boys
jamie jones
2023-02-16 13:30:11 +0000 UTCFour good movies, but I'm not voting in any more of these polls until Nat watches Andor.
Jeremy Jacobs
2023-02-16 12:53:39 +0000 UTCMaybe skip TV shows for one week and just watch all of these. Make it Sci-Fi + Apollo 13 week.
matthew h
2023-02-16 12:19:53 +0000 UTCErrr hate to be pedantic (I’m sure others have mentioned). Apollo 13 isn’t Sci-Fi. Well unless you don’t believe we went to the moon 🌚. Anyway, I think Nat will really enjoy ExMacina but it won’t win. So I’ll vote ExMacina.
Harry Reece
2023-02-16 09:33:04 +0000 UTCI’m also confused why Galaxy Quest is on the poll since I thought we were confirmed to watch it. So I voted for Galaxy Quest again to make sure and will vote for Ex Machina next time. Nat needs something light during these times of TLOU
Jason Gillman
2023-02-16 07:51:10 +0000 UTCThis sure is a funny little poll. leaving out the Apollo 13 thing. If I wanted to see a comedy (Sci-Fi or not) I'd pick GQ. But for straight up Sci-Fi I'd pick Ex-Machina. So I picked Ex-Machina.
Richard Maurer
2023-02-16 07:04:04 +0000 UTCI have to vote for Apollo 13, not a sci-fi, more historical drama. Aside for the three way yelling in the lunar module(which never happened, only there for drama), it’ very accurate. Only one on list haven’t seen is Ex Machina. It’s more riveting due it actually happened.
Ryan Cornett
2023-02-16 05:49:42 +0000 UTCI never win lately… Andor,🙁 I hope ex machine wins. Because it’s been two months that have been paying for stuff I’m not interested to watch 🙁
Joao
2023-02-16 04:52:37 +0000 UTCApollo 13 is historical Sci-Fa!
Eric Janssen
2023-02-16 04:44:46 +0000 UTCI would really love to see you watch if you ever do a pole for animated movies. I would love to see you watch princess mononoke and Akira
David Pressley
2023-02-16 04:43:22 +0000 UTCAll these are good choices so you're going to have a time with all of them because I've seen all of them and they're pretty well done movies.
David Pressley
2023-02-16 04:42:51 +0000 UTCOne day we will get Planet of the Apes 🥲
Colter
2023-02-16 04:22:13 +0000 UTCIt doesn't matter if she's never seen Star Trek, and jokes about Redshirts, Shatner's ego or Next Generation tropes will fall flat, she NEEDS to see Galaxy Quest, for one crucial all-important reason: WE'VE seen it! (Just testing the Bitter Sarcasm meter for the group.)
Eric Janssen
2023-02-16 04:19:44 +0000 UTCA lot of reactors are doing GQ lately. Go for Ex Machina. It's the best film on the list.
REDR58
2023-02-16 03:54:16 +0000 UTCWell, of Ex Machina has to lose at least it's to galaxy quest
PickettsChargingPort
2023-02-16 03:46:07 +0000 UTCHis performance in moon was quite spectacular
jamie jones
2023-02-16 03:15:12 +0000 UTCYou and half the other commenters it would seem.
Kev Martin
2023-02-16 03:00:39 +0000 UTCSome people just don't understand the concept of spoilers do they?
Kev Martin
2023-02-16 02:59:48 +0000 UTCdude's talking smack about the historical documents
Dale Diaz
2023-02-16 02:44:52 +0000 UTCYou should also watch District 9
Chris Moon
2023-02-16 02:17:05 +0000 UTChahahaha, you're funny.
Logan Kerlee
2023-02-16 01:52:22 +0000 UTCYou think so? I honestly prefer the original. The new one feels wrong in my book.
Logan Kerlee
2023-02-16 01:51:44 +0000 UTCI know most have a HO for GQ but I like all the others more...although I do agree w others that Apollo 13 being a true story is def not Science Fiction..haha...I still picked it since I think it is the best movie on the list
Choi_Yujin_Stan_Account
2023-02-16 01:49:56 +0000 UTCThat's why I didn't vote for Planet of the Apes. I didn't know which one it'd be. I'd honestly prefer the original films but that's me.
Logan Kerlee
2023-02-16 01:47:46 +0000 UTCThis right there is super important! I'm a fan of the original series of films. The other two are pretty weak in my book. If it was specifically the original series that'd have my vote.
Logan Kerlee
2023-02-16 01:44:23 +0000 UTCWhich "Planet of the apes"? There has been at least 3 different film series
Thoko
2023-02-16 01:37:24 +0000 UTCAre you suggesting that Galaxy Quest is NOT a documentary?
Misty Crom
2023-02-16 01:35:25 +0000 UTCI hate to break this to you, but while Apollo 13 is a great movie, it is ***NOT*** SCIENCE FICTION or any other kind of fiction. It really happened, almost exactly as depicted in the movie!!! It does not belong on the same list with Galaxy Quest! Great acting and phenominal cast!
Alan Kobb
2023-02-16 01:09:23 +0000 UTCNever give up, never surrender!
Daniel Roberts
2023-02-16 00:41:59 +0000 UTCMan, I wanted to see you react to Galaxy Quest but, The Planet of the Apes movies are some of my all-time favorite movies lol
Charles Semon
2023-02-16 00:34:49 +0000 UTCI didn’t mind the movie but if you should check out the book Annihilation (it’s very short and part 1 of a trilogy) it’s really good and way more of a sort of suspenseful horror novel.
Adam B
2023-02-16 00:18:14 +0000 UTCI didn’t mind the movie but if you should check out the book Annihilation (it’s very short and part 1 of a trilogy) it’s really good and way more of a sort of suspenseful horror novel.
Adam B
2023-02-16 00:18:00 +0000 UTCOoo now i want ex machina to win, i swear to god i hope one day you get to watch planet of the apes tho ! Lol
Rey
2023-02-16 00:17:58 +0000 UTCSeen Galaxy Quest on quite some polls now. Never seen it but it gets my vote since I got the idea Nat really wants to watch it. Would also like to see an Annihilation reaction some day, enjoyed that movie
Len
2023-02-16 00:07:18 +0000 UTCSam Rockwell's performance in Galaxy Quest trumps all.
Myoclonic Jerk
2023-02-15 23:54:55 +0000 UTCIt has to be Ex Machina come on now
Spencer Lemmon
2023-02-15 23:43:05 +0000 UTCWouldn’t really call Apollo 13 sci-fi. Fictionalized account, yes but it is still based on what actually happened to the mission.
D Walraven
2023-02-15 23:19:39 +0000 UTCApollo isn't sci-fi, but still to some extent fiction, as many aspects have been dramatized for the movie. However it always gives me goosebumps every time I watch it, also because many scenes were filmed in actual microgravity using a vomit-bomber.
Ulrich Unterbrunner
2023-02-15 23:16:58 +0000 UTCLove that movie. Also, proper sci-fi.
Myles Away
2023-02-15 23:14:49 +0000 UTCAh I would absolutely love this, Annihilation is fantastic.
Erik Stevenson
2023-02-15 23:04:09 +0000 UTCThe Wahlberg one? You mean the BEST one?
Richard Maurer
2023-02-15 22:59:38 +0000 UTCI wonder if anyone will mention that "Apollo 13 is not Sci-Fi". Or that "Nat already said she'd watch Galaxy Quest".
Kev Martin
2023-02-15 22:55:18 +0000 UTCI just think it would be hilarious if Ex Machina beat out Galaxy Quest (I thought we were definitely watching that but still)
Byron
2023-02-15 22:54:23 +0000 UTCHas anyone mentioned that Apollo 13 isn't sci-fi? ;-)
Richard Maurer
2023-02-15 22:52:37 +0000 UTCBut, but, it has space in it........ ;-)
Richard Maurer
2023-02-15 22:50:51 +0000 UTCnext time I'd like to see in the sci-fi poll DEEP IMPACT (1998) if we want to see astronauts instead of Apollo 13 😁
Mannygogou
2023-02-15 22:48:17 +0000 UTCI’ll be real, voting for Ex Machina because another reactor just did Galaxy Quest…
djKENTO
2023-02-15 22:45:38 +0000 UTCIn no way Apollo 13 is science fiction 🙂 let me think, no it's not. Unless the number "13" makes it so... no it does not 😊 THE RIGHT STUFF (1983) is just slightly more fiction than Apollo 13 but The Right Stuff isn't science-fiction either, but great movie!
Mannygogou
2023-02-15 22:40:57 +0000 UTCI think she's considering not watching Galaxy Quest unless we prove it's worth it by votes... I think winner takes the cake.
Mannygogou
2023-02-15 22:34:31 +0000 UTCwe also need the movie "Annihilation" in a sci-fi poll , from the same Director as Ex-Machina , very underrated sci-fi movie , with a great cast :)
Peter Heine
2023-02-15 22:30:56 +0000 UTCAll great movies. Not all sci-fi. In the heart of the poll ... Ex-Machina by a long shot.
Myles Away
2023-02-15 22:24:13 +0000 UTCI hope she considers watching Underworld one day!!
DevilsQueen
2023-02-15 22:17:40 +0000 UTCThese are all pretty good choices, but I went with PotA (and I'm assuming remake here) just because, if you haven't seen them, they'd make great content and they're pretty popular, too. I think I read that they're about to start work on another trilogy, or at least another film in the series, so you could get pumped up for the new film(s) with a Caesar Trilogy watch.
Mike Hell
2023-02-15 22:16:44 +0000 UTCShe’s seen Arrival already
carlos
2023-02-15 22:12:30 +0000 UTCFor a real science fiction poll, you can always add "Arrival." Unless you already did it and I missed it.
Jim Lent
2023-02-15 22:09:51 +0000 UTCUmmm apollo 13 isn’t sci-fi…
jamie jones
2023-02-15 22:02:27 +0000 UTCi thought you already were gonna watch Galaxy quest? :( still voting for Ex Machina
Vincent Valentin
2023-02-15 22:02:25 +0000 UTCDidn’t you already say you’d watch Galaxy Quest? Why use another poll for it? And Apollo 13 is not a Sci-Fi movie. Also, which Planet of the Apes? That’s a pretty important distinction. Regardless, I’d rather she watch Ex Machina before any of these anyways. All great films though!
Dante
2023-02-15 21:56:40 +0000 UTCIs Apollo 13 Sci-Fi as it is a true story and not fiction?
Christopher
2023-02-15 21:50:12 +0000 UTCGalaxy Quest is a great Star Trek inspired sci-fi comedy, would love to see Star Trek (2009) at some point!!
DDK
2023-02-15 21:49:41 +0000 UTCApollo 13 isn't really sci/fi.
John
2023-02-15 21:39:37 +0000 UTClol, i feel you. its a great movie, but Ive rewatched it i think twice in the last 2 months with other channels.
Chris
2023-02-15 21:11:38 +0000 UTCJeez. This is a tough call. I'd probably say it's Ex Machina > Galaxy Quest > Apollo 13 > Planet of the Apes? Planet of the apes mostly being in last because it's a series and would take up more slots to get through, and the first one I think is the least refined? All of them are some top tier movies though. If you want something anywhere close to light hearted though, Galaxy Quest rockets to #1 by a mile though.
Andrew Howard
2023-02-15 21:07:06 +0000 UTCNat should remove GQ since she already said she would watch it, also remove Apollo 13since it is fact not fiction. Should remove pota. till we know which one, Charlton Heston original is still the best. So I guess she has to watch Ex Machina since it is the only real choice.😃
SilentBobFather
2023-02-15 21:04:19 +0000 UTCGalaxy Quest is a comedy. Ex Machina is definitely sci-fi. Nat needs a comedy with all the Last of Us we've put her through.
Mastervodo
2023-02-15 20:57:14 +0000 UTCVoted for Apollo 13 since you said you were already going to do Galexy Quest.
LightsCameraJake
2023-02-15 20:53:17 +0000 UTCYou should getvto all of these and while Galaxy Quest is my favorite it's more of a warm weather season movie so I'd hold off a month or two.
ScottK63
2023-02-15 20:51:46 +0000 UTCDidn’t you say that because Galaxy Quest was next cause it was so close with John Wick 2? I’m confused
Christopher
2023-02-15 20:43:52 +0000 UTCYou should really take Apollo 13 out (since it's a history piece/biopic) and watch it regardless of the results. Let the others fight it out in the poll for a sci-fi viewing!
Arthur Bright
2023-02-15 20:42:45 +0000 UTCAll worth watching, but i'd rank Ex Machina 1st and Galaxy Quest 4th.
Opti_Frog
2023-02-15 20:40:04 +0000 UTCWait I thought we were already doing Galaxy Quest? Didn't you say that in the John Wick opening? Anyway, voted for it again!
Lisa Tosti
2023-02-15 20:35:42 +0000 UTCEvery reactor out there has done all of these already so I guess its time to follow the herd!
Jayson Phillips

John Drew
2023-02-15 20:33:58 +0000 UTCI know Galaxy Quest will probably win, and I know you’ll enjoy it. But I will always vote for Apollo 13, it’s an amazing movie.
Patrick Egan
2023-02-15 20:31:40 +0000 UTCUgh, not GalaxyQuest AGAIN.😔
Jeff E
2023-02-15 20:29:12 +0000 UTCGod, how long have I seen Planet of the Apes on here? Too bad you put it next to Galaxy Quest 😂 I'll just keep PotA in the same pocket as Predator for now LMAO Seriously Natalie, I think Galaxy Quest is right up your alley.
Cody Steele
2023-02-15 20:25:22 +0000 UTCWhich "Planet of the Apes"?
Miles E Coburn
2023-02-15 20:17:29 +0000 UTCWe got another chance for Galaxy Quest baybay!!!
Shanice W.
2023-02-15 20:15:48 +0000 UTCApollo 13 is 'sci-nonfi'. Despite that, need to vote for it. It's a must-see.
Scott Dorr
2023-02-15 20:14:09 +0000 UTCYou said you were doing Galaxy Quest anyway. Putting it on another poll seems like an attempt to not do so. Therefore I'm voting for it even over Apollo 13 which is a true story and much better movie.
JayF
2023-02-15 20:11:41 +0000 UTCApollo 13 is not Sci-Fi :D don't tell me you are a Space denier! :D

2023-02-15 20:02:04 +0000 UTCDammit!!!! I mean... all of these are pretty much NEED to watch Sci-fi films imo, but dammit, Nat! You KNEW Planet of the Apes wasn't gonna win, and ya just went ahead and tortured yourself and us Apes fans with it anyway xD xP lol <3
SmokeAndACoffee
2023-02-15 19:59:46 +0000 UTCAll good movies. Ex Machina and the new Apes trilogy are really good films and have incredible visuals, even by today's standards.
Tucci
2023-02-15 19:58:09 +0000 UTCAs much as I'd love to get the recent PotA films reacted to, Ex Machina has my vote this time. It might not come up again xD
SlayInnit
2023-02-15 19:57:10 +0000 UTCThis just seems cruel, to put us Galaxy Quest fans through another poll after saying it'd be reacted to, anyway... Hopefully it comes out on top. But, to quote Nat: She's gonna react to it, anyway. Soon.
Patrick Armbruster
2023-02-15 19:51:55 +0000 UTCCasual giant spoiler ^
Tucci
2023-02-15 19:51:01 +0000 UTCI love Apollo 13 but it definitely shouldn't win based on the genre. It's a historical drama I guess. I'm voting for it anyway
Bathu
2023-02-15 19:50:45 +0000 UTCI love all of these movies, great choices. I went with Ex Machina. The tensions builds nicely throughout the movie.
Troy
2023-02-15 19:50:16 +0000 UTCGalaxy Quest gets my top vote, but I'd love for you to react to Apollo 13 as well. If you're doing Planet of the Apes, I sure hope you're talking about the original, and not the lousy remake with Wahlberg.
Jeff K
2023-02-15 19:49:49 +0000 UTCEx Maxhina is SO good. I can’t recomend it enough. Actually just rewatched if this week strangely enough
John Piazza
2023-02-15 19:47:47 +0000 UTCWell, technically, Apollo 13 isn't sci-fi. It's history. Yeah, I'm gonna be THAT guy.
Kevin Maguire
2023-02-15 19:47:44 +0000 UTCApollo 13 is a fun watch, but Galaxy Quest would be more popular for the channel.
Adam Doyle
2023-02-15 19:45:20 +0000 UTCGalaxy Quest is a fun time, but Apollo 13 is one of the greatest films.

Philip Davetas
2023-02-15 19:43:29 +0000 UTCKingdom? Fox’s doing another franchise-jumpstart? How much more of Battle for the POTA is there left to remake? (Oh, right, Caesar hasn’t died yet and we don’t have a statue.). 🙄
Eric Janssen
2023-02-15 19:43:23 +0000 UTCTwo I'd recommend as well is The Last Starfighter and Enemy Mine
Jeb Manning
2023-02-15 19:40:55 +0000 UTCWhich Planet of the Apes are we talking about? Original series Planet of the Apes (1968) Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970) Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971) Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972) Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973) Remake Planet of the Apes (2001) Reboot series Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) War for the Planet of the Apes (2017)

2023-02-15 19:39:04 +0000 UTCHappy Wednesday Nat. 5th or 6th time lucky for those apes please 🐵🐒🦍🦧🤞
Darryl Low
2023-02-15 19:38:55 +0000 UTCWeren’t you gonna do Galaxy Quest anyway? Since the votes were so split on, not one, but two polls.
Dominique Cloet
2023-02-15 19:38:06 +0000 UTCPlanet of the Apes, 1968. It’s a madhouse. If you’re wondering how we got the new 10’s trilogy, it’s because the X-producer who commissioned the ‘01 remake hated the precious mess that Tim Burton delivered.
Eric Janssen
2023-02-15 19:38:05 +0000 UTCShe said she never would have put it in a poll because it was described as a Star Trek parody, and she's never seen Star Trek. But people do vote for it. I wouldn't want to ruin the cast list as she sometimes doesn't look it up, but based on that alone it's worth watching.
Johnny
2023-02-15 19:37:59 +0000 UTCThere are very few trilogies that I consider a perfect trilogy. The Planet of the Apes is one of them! But I choose Galaxy Quest. 😂
Walter Lopez
2023-02-15 19:37:47 +0000 UTCYes very strange seeing galaxy quest in the poll after nat said herself she was going to watch it not last Friday because she wanted to see Wakanda so it should have been this Friday but guess nat changed her mind 🤷 oh and happy Wednesday nat
Ian
2023-02-15 19:37:19 +0000 UTCWhich Planet of the Apes?? There are many at this point. There's the Matt Reeves (who would go onto do The Batman film), the older ones with Charelton Heston, and the one with Mark Whalberg. I think many would prefer the Matt Reeves or older ones even if you ever were to do one
Adam Block
2023-02-15 19:36:23 +0000 UTCThe wahlberg one
Simonsays
2023-02-15 19:36:18 +0000 UTCI thought Galaxy Quest won already?
Vince Ledezma
2023-02-15 19:36:06 +0000 UTCDon’t think Apollo 13 is a Sci-Fi film
Daniel Casillas
2023-02-15 19:35:49 +0000 UTCApollo 13 is one of the best movie you can ask for especially if you don't know the history! Don't look it up! It's all true and definitely not Syfi but still needs to be added asap
Buzz Mongold
2023-02-15 19:35:30 +0000 UTCHeh, I personally wouldn’t quite classify Apollo 13 as sci-fi. It’s a dramatized recounting of historical events that just so happen to mainly take place in outer space.
bytefyre
2023-02-15 19:35:04 +0000 UTCOh man... all the above, but I absolutely cannot wait for you to watch "Rise of the Planet of the Apes".
Quick
2023-02-15 19:35:02 +0000 UTCYou should do the Planet of the Apes reboot trilogy some time. Andy Serkis as Caesar is a great performance
Andy
2023-02-15 19:34:19 +0000 UTCOriginal planet of the apes? Then yes. Also Ex Machina would totally freak her out. Might have to go with that one for pure shock factor
Edward Brink
2023-02-15 19:34:18 +0000 UTCPlzzz I need planet of the apes to finally win, she needs to experience the knew onesss
Kyle
2023-02-15 19:33:48 +0000 UTCWait I thought she was doing galaxy quest already after it came so close in the last poll
ButtyOh
2023-02-15 19:33:45 +0000 UTCGalaxy quest here we come!
Edgard Rosas
2023-02-15 19:33:36 +0000 UTCAre you referring the old planet of the apes movies or the more recent ones. The recent ones are a lot better
Dominic Delacruz
2023-02-15 19:33:31 +0000 UTCAll good options (though Apollo 13 is historical drama, not scifi). While I like Apollo 13 the most, I would enjoy seeing you watch Galaxy Quest more.
Gabriel L.
2023-02-15 19:33:31 +0000 UTCI think is the original as people asked her to first watch the original movie
