Old Lady Reacts

Welcome to Old Lady Reacts, where I, the Old Lady in question, react to action and super hero films that I haven't seen!

I decided to start a reaction channel because I’m a HUGE movie buff. I love watching all of the young youtubers reactions to movies that I know and love from my younger days, the only problem being . . . I’ve seen almost everything out there! All those great 80’s and 90’s blockbusters, those classic Christmas movies, I worked at a video store for three years right after college, I’ve seen them all! EXCEPT . . . super hero and action movies. And this year, WandaVision came out and it looked really interesting but I haven’t watched it yet because I know that I’ll miss most of the inside jokes. And that would make me sad. So, let’s start watching super hero movies!

Please leave comments on references I missed and connections with other movies as well as recommendations on what to watch next as I definitely need to know what order to watch movies in!

    I did not think the movie earned smiles and chuckles. The mundane and mindless activities were sobering and concerning.

    So I’m not going to be at all condescending or mean …. If I come across that way it isn’t intentional. But unlike some I quite enjoyed this reaction from you… your skepticism threw me a little bit at times but all in all he made me laugh but a couple things number one you really should like another comment or said react to some actual footage of like the Joplin tornado or even the Gerald Texas tornado, which was just a fluke when it happened I think it would show you that there is very little that they got wrong in this movie. It’s pretty accurate scientifically pretty I’m not saying it’s perfect here just your basic F3 tornado back in. I guess it was 97 in the panhandle of Texas we didn’t know that it was happening because of warning time until we could see it ourselves and I live in like a city they drop out of nowhere and they are very unpredictable. We have gotten better with warning times now but back then no they had no warning. that truly is the only issue I really had with your reaction was the fact that you not convinced that they had no warning they had literally and when they said that they could increase warning times up to 15 minutes that was the fallacy in Pam don’t think that I’ve ever known that unless it’s just been, the tornado itself has been going on for a long time so people get the warning but right off the bat when they first dropped those first people in line to get hit they do not have but minutes.

    One of my favorite movies - for the reasons you like it too. Smart, cool, and yet very humanistic. A clumsier take on the David-Goliath story of a has-been lawyer taking on a corporation would have taken the narrative in a straight-on, linear way. This movie wrapped the D-G tale in the more compelling character study of a man who is devoted father, a frustrated brother, and an anxious, caring friend.

    Here is my vote for a movie to watch, very popular right now. Godzilla Minus One. Even if you have never seen a Godzilla movie or have seen several, it doesn't matter. This one stands alone. It is entirely in Japanese and is subtitled. It won the Academy Award for special effects, and was made on a budget of under $15 million (including the advertising campaign. I think the actual cost was under $12 mil). This is a great drama and the first Godzilla film that is more focused on the story of the characters than the monster.

    I love the part where they drive through the house and a teddy bear hits the windshield and squeaks like a rubber ducky. 28:45 My wife and I saw this in the theaters in May 1996 shortly after it came out. Very impressive technology for the day, I remember leaving the theater and being surprised that is was blue skies and a sunny day, hahaha. My wife *loved* disaster films, so calling this Disaster P0rn is perfect for this film. That is all it was. They invented new tech to make realistic tornadoes and rushed to build a film around that ability. The story was pretty bad. We really liked Helen Hunt, but there was just no chemistry with Bill Paxton (RIP). The entire romantic subplot was silly and unnecessary. After the initial adrenaline rush of seeing the movie, we both looked back on it and made a lot of jokes about the actual story. OH! Here is a fun story for you. Fox television made an almost identical made-for-TV movie, possibly based on a leaked copy of the script for Twister. It was called "Tornado!" (with the exclamation point) and released on TV May 7th, 1996, three days before Twister's opening weekend. It starred Bruce Campbell and Ernie Hudson. It has the same plot about a device that releases scores of little sensors to be picked up by the tornado and they have to anchor it down so it won't fly away. The special effects were much cheaper and I think it had a better love story.

    Nice. I love this movie. One of few that''s exactly what it's supposed to be, and doesn't try to be more than that. Well executed action. Of course, it has its silliness, but I'd say the least of the late 90's cadre of 'disaster' flicks...

    This film and man of steel sure like putting dogs in danger of tornados which is odd. I have a friend who grew up in a state with tornadoes and he and his family ALWAYS made sure to take the dog with them so this is imo odd. I don't think dog owners forget their dogs as much as these films portray. I guess Hollywood feels middle Americans forget their dogs in tornadoes???

    Exactly! The first thing I would think about in an emergency is my cat. I would never leave her behind! We actually had a fire in my last apartment building and the alarms in the hallway were a lot louder than inside my apartment. The second I stepped outside with her in my arms, she went CRAZY! I have the scratches on my face and neck to prove it. But it's OK, cuz she was coming with me no matter what.

It's just interesting to see how Hollywood portrays people living in areas that have tornadoes. It's kind of goofy and unrealistic but it's okay it's a movie lol. It just FEEL like they portray people as if they haven't lived in an areas with tornadoes like if a Californian family experienced for the first time and forgot their pet in the chaos.

    I love thunderstorms and lightning! In Kentucky I'll go outside when it's storming just to watch everything. But, I was on a cross-country trip once going through Kansas and a really bad storm came up. The sky turned almost black and it looked like the clouds were about 50 ft above the road I had to pull over because it felt like the sky was actually falling down on us. We pulled next to a bridge in button and stayed there for about an hour and a half till it passed. I've never seen anything like that before or since. The only time in my life I was actually scared of a storm.

    Best lightning storm I ever saw was in Kansas. The kind of forked lightning that started up high and then branched and branched, it just went on and on, it seemed like it covered a huge chunk of the sky. And then again and again and again. I think I was like 12 or 13, we were stopping for the night as we were driving through. Never been to Kansas before or since, so I have kind of a magical memory of the place.

    In 1976, there was a TV movie sequel, titled LOOK WHAT'S HAPPENED TO ROSEMARY'S BABY, which picks up 8 years after the first film. We learn that Guy took off for a successful career in Hollywood, while Rosemary and Adrian stayed behind with the coven. Rosemary (played by Patty Duke) absconds with the boy prior to his 8th birthday party in an effort to prevent the coven from performing some sort of ritual on him . It's been year since the viewed the film, so most of the details are fuzzy ... somehow a hooker played by Tina Louise (Ginger from Gilligan's Island) offers them shelter, then somehow convinces Rosemary to hide out in an abandoned bus. Suddenly, the bus powers up and takes off (without a driver) and we never learn of Rosemary's fate. The film then skips ahead to show a now adult Adrian, going by the name Andrew, being a trouble maker with the local police ... and honestly, the rest of the film was so boring, I can't even recall how it ends. The film was poorly written but Patty Duke's (brief) screen time and the return of Ruth Gordon as Minnie Castevet are about the only things making this dud of celluloid worth watching at all. = = = = = = = = = = Ira Levin, the author of the ROSEMARY'S BABY novel, published a sequel novel in 1997, titled SON OF ROSEMARY, which completely ignores the event of the 1976 TV movie, and serves as a direct sequel to the original film. It is reveled that the year is now 1999 and Adrian is a world famous new age spiritual guru. The coven had placed a spell over Rosemary in 1973, putting her in a coma to prevent her from running off with Adrian. As the novel beings, she has awakened upon the death of the last member of the coven. After being reunited with Adrian, she herself becomes a celebrity of sorts, all the while, Adrian attempts to reassure her that he's rejected the coven's evil influence and wants to bring spiritual enlightenment to the world. There are a few odd interactions between Rosemary and Andy (bordering on incest) and on new year's eve, a deadly virus is unleased upon the planet and Satan emerges to drag Rosemary to Hell. She then wakes up to find herself 33 years in the past (prior to getting pregnant), laying in bed next to Guy at their apartment in the Bramford building. It's left up to the reader to decide if Rosemary simply dreamt the events of the 1967 and 1997 novels or had actually experienced a premonition of future events.

    This is by far the worst reaction for this I have seen. It is an action movie, nitwit and there are just so many things you can do? They all have fights and guns. Any second you will say, "no he can't use a gun, any kind of gun because John Wick uses a gun. No your can't wear black because John wick wears black." Chris Evans and Ryan Gosling are the same height and I guess you didn't notice how muscular Gosling is in this movie. Gosling is a year older, but I think Ryan is bigger.
