You should watch and react to the making of this film. Honestly. This is one of the best casted films I have ever scene. Every actor/actress was brilliant. Even the bad guys (Percy and Wild Bill) if you get an audience to hate you, you did your job. You should watch how it all came together. Try something different. NOt too many people react to what went on behind the scenes of films.
The reason John was so big is because no normal man could bare the full burden of the gift notice he was dog tired after each time he used it and notice he was tired after del was executed because John took the pain away from del's soul it was just his body dieing in the chair when Paul showed the woman the mouse it was 64 years old and in the end the glimpse of Paul all dressed up walking down the hall he out lived the nursing home him and the old woman was in he was the last to leave Everytime I watch this movie I find more and more little details that I've missed this movie never gets old
It seemed you missed the connection that the old man is an older Tom Hanks and he has a UTI. (You did make the connection at the end). I'm sure they are not having sex because of UTI. People don't HAVE TO BE THERE during the execution. They volunteer to be there. He had to go outside to the bathroom because back in the day many places did not have indoor toilets. He is heading for the outhouse. Right when you were saying that the worst thing you can do is spit on another man, that guy started pissing on the guard. Personally I think pissing is worse than spitting. Moon pie to the face is not great either. It's death row, none of them are leaving except getting executed. I also think you missed the fact that John "felt" the pain of the guy that was executed without the wet sponge. Yeah, the wife is "real sick". She "had" a brain tumor and "was" going to die. You also missed the fact that Percy was admitted to the same mental hospital where he was supposed to be getting a job, after leaving death row. Did you realize that the movie he watched at the end was the same movie that old Tom Hanks was crying about at the beginning? You may want to pay more attention to the movie instead of talking so much, especially since you repeat the same thing over and over again anyway.
In the first 5 minutes you didn't even track that the old guy said he was in charge of death row and had the worst UTI of his life...... Then we see DEATH . ROW. and a guy who can't pee without pain. There's no way you're going to track the supernatural stuff to come. Glad you showed me how inattentive you can be and showed me early. I can tap out now.
Funny thing about Tom Hanks, for whatever reason, he had a TON of movies that show him urinating. Keep any eye out for it whenever you watch his movies! Kind of a fun game
@@yoochoooob - and every movie that John Travolta does, he feels he has to dance in every one of them, whether it goes with the plot or not. Not a fan.
We truly don't know how old John is, it alluded to seem he just appeared out of the sky. Even John said he was tired of wandering, being by himself, not knowing where he was going to be time to time. You have to realize that he said he was tired, he felt the ugliness of the world personally upon his divine lifeforce, this was 1935 to 36, all the leaders that were in power for WW2 to kick off were in place now, the toll it would of took on him.
There were no real treatments for urinary infections in the 1930s. Penicillin wasn't available until after World War 2. So even if he had gone to the doctor there wouldn't have been much they could have done for him.
A lot of houses in the thirties didn't have an indoor bathrooms. He was headed for the outhouse. No, the dog that attacked the boy was shot right after. The movie Coffey watched is the same movie Paul saw on TV, which made him cry. Telling people he didn't do it wouldn't work- who would believe that story. Coffey wanted it to be over anyway.
Loving your channel and that you hit the Big 3 Shawshank, Green Mile, & Forrest Gump right out the gate❤❤❤Wishing you much success with your channel, looking forward to what you watch next. RIP Michael Clarke Duncan😢
I like this dude. Good reaction channels are hard to come by lately. So many reactors seem to be more interested in talking about themselves and talking over the film dialogue, or showing that they've never progressed beyond a 14 year old mentality. Or they insist on letting their audience know what an astute film critic they are, by constantly talking about the lighting, the character's dialogue, the background shots.This dude isn't silly but is still funny. It's sometimes hard to strike that balance but he's got it down.
Just don't do Titanic. I lost 2 great uncles, sailing home. They helped build it, & part of their pay was a sail home. They were never found, & my great grandparents were given 2-$20 gold pieces for the loss of their 2 oldest 2 sons!!
Missed this one. Hope ur well. This is an amazing film heart-warming and heartbreaking. John was such a beautiful soul, a miraculous, instantaneous healer. Spiritually gifted, An Angel. He feels the worlds pain. It is hard to watch, but thats what John wanted and back in those days they would have never given him a chance even if they we're told. Thanx so much, take care, Peace
John Madden explaining a play that just happened: Now, ya see the quarterback.. he had the ball and then the receiver, he caught the ball. That's how the play happened because the quarterback passed the ball to the.. the.. the.. receiver and he uhh, caught the ball.
It's sadly inspired by the real case of George Tilley Jnr who at the age of 14 was sentenced to death by electric chair for the sexual assault and murder of two little white girls in the 30's. This poor skinny little boy was arrested kept from his parents, bullied and forced into a confession At the time of the murders George was working on the family farm with his sister. But sadly he was taken to court where it took an all white jury just 6 hours to sentence him to death with a date of execution to be one year later. He was completely cut off from his family. When it came to the execution they had to put books underneath him to make the chair fit this very small boy . IHis family never stopped fighting for him even after his death they fought for his name. It would come up in tge news through the years which is how Stephen King read about it but it was until the Innocence project took the case and he was cleared in 2014.
Telling the parents that wild bill did it would only destroy the parents (mostly the father) knowing that they brought the man into their home who killed and raped their girls. Especially since john wanted it over, all the pain he lives with every day of his life.
You can't go wrong with any of Tom Hank's movies. The next movie you do of his should be his most famous movie "Forrest Gump". (And then Cast Away" after that.)
I don't know if the word "sissy" is as bad as the f-word... although, that word is used in this movie too. I think we just refrain from saying the s-word "just in case. BTW, Michael Clarke Duncan was 6'5". Brutal/Brutus is 6'4". They scaled things down to make John Coffey look more like a giant.
No one no one can imagine what their victims went through before they finally died. Nobody was there for the victims nobody was reading them their last rights nobody was there to save them obviously. The people in the room watching electrocution we're usually family members of the victim they were looking for justice and they received Justice right here what you're looking at is Justice for murder and whatever other torture they put on their victims, these man in the electric chair earned. So don't you dare feel sorry for people that get electrocuted or lethal injection or hanging or firing squad. These evil people earned it.
I know this is a reaction video, but honestly would hate to watch any movie with you...if you watched more than 2 seconds before talking over it you might get what your watching.
To me, this was the worse reaction to this movie ive seen thus far. Its like you didnt comprehend what you were watching or you were just were too busy giving the reaction to watch the film. You missed most of the connections and symbolism.How can anyone possibly watch this movie and not shed a tear. Ive watched it on my own as well as in reactions and i still cry every single time
Somehow you missed out on the gist of this movie. The Green Mile is death row. This is the final part of their life they have been found guilty already of murder that's why they are here on the Green Mile they are not waiting to be tried they already went through the trials and have been found guilty already. Much respect to you, but you missed out on a lot of information in the beginning of this movie. And it's showing.
I like how so many things were up in the air, then they answered all the questions as the last half of the movie progresses; like the movie john watched was the movie that triggered Pauls crying as an old man 60 years later. Wasn't too shocked that the supernatural was a part of this movie as it was written by Steven King, though he played it straight in his other prison blockbuster Shawshank Redemption. John had no chance from the beginning. Being a black giant with two bloody girls in his arms in 1935 Alabama, he probably would have just been shot right then,. As it was, I think the trial was just a formality, those people didn't give the benefit of the doubt easily at all to black folks in general back then, unfortunately. His lawyer didn't really care either, comparing John, as a black man, to a dog that bit his son. Paul and his crew were certainly the exception; but Percy got everything he deserved. So sad that Paul, the best of all the guys, saw his extended life as punishment. I wonder with just a tiny part of the power in Paul; how long do you think John, with all the rest of it, would have lived?
I wonder how long John already lived up to that point? Maybe hundreds of years. Maybe thousands of years. Might be why he wasn't upset, but seemed relieved about his fate.
@@rollotomassi6232 Good call; I hadn’t thought about how long he was there BEFORE. I just figured he ‘appeared’ in that time with his purpose. Maybe punish Percey so he couldn’t do something he was going to later. Perhaps it was solely to help the wardens wife survive, or show the other officers there is power in the world , who knows? Maybe to also extend Pauls life with a hidden purpose he fulfills in a later time. There are certainly enough correlations with biblical references. His referencing the angels, and his initials, J.C. …. . Any movie that makes one think beyond it is a winner, and this was a great one! Among all their accomplishments, just a couple of fun facts from the amazing cast: the Trustee Toot-Toot that did the execution practices, was one of the two engineers from the original Alien movie. The young officer, dean, was the sniper from Saving Private Ryan, etc.
Biblically speaking, all death & disease is a result of sin entering the world, in the garden of Eden., bringing a curse on mankind & the earth itself. John is what you call a "sin-eater". He has a supernatural, angelic power, of ingesting & extracting someone else's sickness associated with either specific sin, or just sin in general, & then releasing it. Flies are symbolic, & a sign of sin, sickness, curse, & death...
Because John didn't give her anything, he didn't give her a piece of himself. He took something from her, her illness. Mr. Jingles didn't receive John's gift of long life when John sucked the death out of him; he got it when John was holding him during Del's execution and some of his gift transferred to the mouse.
@theresataylor6675 I have no idea what YOU mean exactly by saying it's a very "hood" movie... UNLESS that was a typo and you meant to say it's a very GOOD movie which it absolutely is. TRUST ME it's very accurate and it STILL holds up to today's standards in part of this country. MANY people are very unaware of how things work and how much hasn't changed from the past. WE DO STILL HAVE CHAIN GANGS JUST SO YOU KNOW! I'M AN INTERNATIONAL PRISONER AND HUMAN RIGHTS ADVOCATE FOR 38 YEARS! I deal with EVERY LEVEL of the system. THAT MEANS from my juveniles TO my people on Death Row, and my ladies on death row in Uganda. BOTH the men AND the women of Death Row who people forget about since they are a hidden segment of the prison system in general~but definitely when it comes to Death Row. That's because since most of the Death Row community is made up predominantly of men, people forget there are actually women on The Row. So when it comes to this movie there's a lot to unpack here and as an advocate it holds up. It's one of my favorites for that fact, and for many other reasons it stands up. #2XAmnestyIntlAwardWinner #NewYorkStatePARALEGAL #IntlCourtAtHAUGE31Years #NewYorkGenXBIKERLady #NATIVETribalLaw22Years #Taino #NYMohawk #BearClanMember #SCOTUSAppeals32Years #AntiHumanTraffickingLegislationOBAMAYoureWelcome #WomenInPrisonProject #ReleaseAgedPplProject #AFSCInterFaithCoalition #IncarceratedMothers #NONDenomPrisonMINISTER #IMDUALReligiousCertified #IAMFreeANDAvailable247
I'll give him a little credit Paul was in a nursing home in Louisiana but he missed so many important Easter eggs throughout the film I know he was just throwing out random reptiles names😂😂😂
Adogg, it's NOT a "RAT" it's only a little MOUSE. It's NOT "the SAME THING." There IS a DIFFERENCE!! LOL! RATS are BIGGER, a MOUSE is tiny. A MOUSE does NOT grow into a RAT. An adult MOUSE can range (from tip of nose to tip of their tail) from FOUR & 3/4 INCHES to just under 8 INCHES long, plus they have a TRIANGULAR shaped HEAD which is much SMALLER than their BODY. A MOUSE also has a POINTY nose and TINY black eyes. RATS can be as much as 16 - 18 inches long (including their tails). A RAT'S NOSE is more BUNT and ROUNDED ( again, a MOUSE'S NOSE is pointy) A RAT has COARSER FUR which may be BROWN, GRAY, BLACK, or RED in color. RATS can weigh from 1/2 POUND to 1 POUND .....but a MOUSE will weigh between TWO - FIFTHS (2/5ths) to FOUR - FIFTHS (4/5ths) OUNCES. That is VERY SMALL and LIGHT compared to a RAT'S size and weight. SO SEE, They are DEFINITELY NOT "the SAME." NOW you KNOW the DIFFERNCE between a MOUSE and a RAT. 🙂
Also, mice are not very social with people. Rats make amazing pets and can be trained much like dogs. They're very smart and probably the cleanest of the small animal pets. Mine were leash trained.
@marleinasmom I used to walk around with mine in my shirt pocket or on my shoulder. Great pets. Too bad they don't live as long. Mice can be social too, but the males spray like male cats, so they stink.
I @marleinasmom my first rat was JUST like a dog. She came to being called, she'd come on walks with us, if she got too tired she'd either run up my leg or go home, I'd get back and she would be waiting on the doorstep. Amazing pets, can't rate them highly enough xx
It's so annoying when people insist on calling Me Jingles a rat, even when it looks like a mouse , is called a mouse often and still they call it a rat! Please listen!!!!!
You talked right over him telling the lady in the home how the year John Coffey came to the green mile he had the worst urinary tract infection of his life. That's why he said he felt like he was pissing razor blades. Percy did know the sponge was supposed to be wet, he just wanted to see what would happen and also to torture Del. They couldn't turn it off because it would be worse for him to be alive like that.
John is every good and moral black man in America. P.S. An if John lawyer wasn't so immoral maybe John might have healed his son. The Black Man is God. PRAISE YAHWEH!!!!!!!
I just found your channel, and I love this reaction! I had the same reaction as you when I first saw John Coffey. He instantly seemed kind and gentle. It just shows what a great actor Michael Clarke Duncan was
80% of people who watch ask “why he go outside to pee at night😂 Because in 1938 there were no inside bathrooms. The shed with the “ half moon 🌙 “ symbol was the bathroom
Calling someone a sissy is just our nice way of saying the guy acts like a little girl. We didnt ise it like it isnused today. Sissy was a very popular word used anytime a boy cried you were called a sissy. Then the gay community went and made it have a different meaning than originally kinda like the rainbow. We used to see the rainbow everywhere no problem then the gay community decided to make it theor flag. So keep in kind when seeing older movies we used the certain words that one way or another now mean different something else. Hell back then being gay just meant happy that is the actual definition of the word gay is to be happy that is all it orginally means.
When they tell a Man "Its going to be alright" or "You will be fine" before their execution it is to calm the man's fear that he won't handle it like a man, that he won't be brave and oddly enough those reassuring words do help. As a side note - While I liked watching this with you, the reason you so often asked what was going on is because you were talking over the explenation in the movie about what was going on or about to happen so you missed it and were left wondering.
Dude, you know that you don't have to speak every thought that pops into your head? You could at least pause the video instead of talking over important dialog. And, then you narrate to us what is obviously happening on screen. Is this what you do when you go to a walk-in movie? You know what, a person never learns anything by listening to his own voice.

It would be better if you actually LISTENED!
Tom Hanks' character lived out in the country. It was the mid-1930s. Indoor plumbing wasn't a common thing. People used outhouses back then.
I graduated 1980. My grandmother finally got indoor plumbing a year later.😅
The reason John was so big is because no normal man could bare the full burden of the gift notice he was dog tired after each time he used it and notice he was tired after del was executed because John took the pain away from del's soul it was just his body dieing in the chair when Paul showed the woman the mouse it was 64 years old and in the end the glimpse of Paul all dressed up walking down the hall he out lived the nursing home him and the old woman was in he was the last to leave Everytime I watch this movie I find more and more little details that I've missed this movie never gets old
They offered to help him get out, but John said he was tired of feeling all the evil out there. He wanted to die. Great movie, as always.
Michael Clarke Duncan, they made him look, seem bigger than he is. Actually 6 ft 5 inches, 315 lbs. Born 1957, passed away 2012, heart attack,
He really was a gentle giant. I still think he had too big of a heart for Hollywood to handle. He was a good man.
I know I was very saddened to hear that he had passed away in real life.
Beautiful sad movie! John is truly an angel who cannot live in this world!
Such a gentle giant, kind, and good, very intelligent despite with people believed, or thought of him or said about him
If a Rat and a Mouse are the same then a Lion and a Cat are the same.
It seemed you missed the connection that the old man is an older Tom Hanks and he has a UTI. (You did make the connection at the end). I'm sure they are not having sex because of UTI.

percy is a case of what we call back home, _"Letting your alligator mouth override your Hummingbird ass."_
What does that mean 😂😂😂
When Michael Duncan Clarke (John Coffey) died, Tom Hanks did his eulogy. You should check it out on UA-cam.
Saint Christopher is the saint of travelers for us catholics. 🙏🏻🤍 this movie always makes me cry and 🪦 Duncan what an actor 🤍🙏🏻🇫🇷
Great reaction! I loved how when John was watching the dance flick, the beams of light radiating from his head
A lot of houses in the thirties didn't have an indoor bathrooms. He was headed for the outhouse.
No, the dog that attacked the boy was shot right after.
The movie Coffey watched is the same movie Paul saw on TV, which made him cry.
Telling people he didn't do it wouldn't work- who would believe that story. Coffey wanted it to be over anyway.
Loving your channel and that you hit the Big 3 Shawshank, Green Mile, & Forrest Gump right out the gate❤❤❤Wishing you much success with your channel, looking forward to what you watch next. RIP Michael Clarke Duncan😢
Tom Hanks, and Michael Clarke Duncan, gave Oscar winning performances!
I havnt seen an american reaction to this movie yet, that has said MOUSE, its not a rat
Most of us knew it was a mouse. And that's all you have to contribute about the movie? smh

Just don't do Titanic. I lost 2 great uncles, sailing home. They helped build it, & part of their pay was a sail home. They were never found, & my great grandparents were given 2-$20 gold pieces for the loss of their 2 oldest 2 sons!!
It was pretty boring too.
Damn good movie. Glad we got to experience it with you.
Missed this one. Hope ur well. This is an amazing film heart-warming and heartbreaking. John was such a beautiful soul, a miraculous, instantaneous healer. Spiritually gifted, An Angel. He feels the worlds pain. It is hard to watch, but thats what John wanted and back in those days they would have never given him a chance even if they we're told. Thanx so much, take care, Peace
Please rewatch this movie alone. You missed so many parts while you were reacting. Its definitely worth watching again

It's not a rat it's a mouse I cattle take care of a mouse a rat will kill a cat

Michael Clark Duncan was 6’5” but they used risers to make him look taller.
Even a little thing like a mouse, means so much!
exactly.. the first time I watched this, there were some things that really traumatized.
Do Shawshank Redemption. Also: Mr. Jingles is clearly a rat, not a mouse. Rats are great pets. As sociable and intelligent as dogs.
Remember he said Dale was lucky to be gone.
John Coffey = JC = Jesus Christ.....

Flipping love your channel! Thanks for teaching me with every post
It was the last movie John coffee watched
What a film, heartbreaking!
I throw this in on reactions sometimes. Notice the focus on the handshake at 9:19 in this video. The whole movie is contingent on it.
Wonderful movie👍
Refering to TOM HANKS as "I remember that actor from..." is just sad

`I know people like "that ain't a rat, that's a mouse", same thing.` 🙄
Biblically speaking, all death & disease is a result of sin entering the world, in the garden of Eden., bringing a curse on mankind & the earth itself. John is what you call a "sin-eater". He has a supernatural, angelic power, of ingesting & extracting someone else's sickness associated with either specific sin, or just sin in general, & then releasing it. Flies are symbolic, & a sign of sin, sickness, curse, & death...
Why isn’t the woman still alive - the one that John saved? I never noticed that until now!
Good question, Paul could have made that hook up.
Because John didn't give her anything, he didn't give her a piece of himself. He took something from her, her illness. Mr. Jingles didn't receive John's gift of long life when John sucked the death out of him; he got it when John was holding him during Del's execution and some of his gift transferred to the mouse.
@@applcinamn I buy that
@@applcinamn Exactly. I am confused with the reactor thinking a dog was a mass murderer..
Heart breaking movie. Very hood movie.
Didn't find it "HOOD" at all. ;-)
@theresataylor6675 I have no idea what YOU mean exactly by saying it's a very "hood" movie... UNLESS that was a typo and you meant to say it's a very GOOD movie which it absolutely is. TRUST ME it's very accurate and it STILL holds up to today's standards in part of this country. MANY people are very unaware of how things work and how much hasn't changed from the past. WE DO STILL HAVE CHAIN GANGS JUST SO YOU KNOW! I'M AN INTERNATIONAL PRISONER AND HUMAN RIGHTS ADVOCATE FOR 38 YEARS! I deal with EVERY LEVEL of the system. THAT MEANS from my juveniles TO my people on Death Row, and my ladies on death row in Uganda. BOTH the men AND the women of Death Row who people forget about since they are a hidden segment of the prison system in general~but definitely when it comes to Death Row. That's because since most of the Death Row community is made up predominantly of men, people forget there are actually women on The Row. So when it comes to this movie there's a lot to unpack here and as an advocate it holds up. It's one of my favorites for that fact, and for many other reasons it stands up. #2XAmnestyIntlAwardWinner

@@christinegelabert1651 I did mean good
Yeah I hate those Midwestern PINE TREE ALLIGATORS.😅
I'll give him a little credit Paul was in a nursing home in Louisiana but he missed so many important Easter eggs throughout the film I know he was just throwing out random reptiles names😂😂😂
its a mouse not a rat
I absolutely love this movie... Every time I see it on my channel listings, I have to watch !!
Just bought a double movie of the Shawshank Redemption and the Green Mile
It's a mouse. Why does everyone call it a rat?
Adogg no disrespect intended but you need to pay attention more to the movie and maybe a little less commentary. Just saying
I was going to say the same thing. This guy doesnt pay attention worth a damn.
Adogg, it's NOT a "RAT" it's only a little MOUSE. It's NOT "the SAME THING." There IS a DIFFERENCE!! LOL! RATS are BIGGER, a MOUSE is tiny. A MOUSE does NOT grow into a RAT. An adult MOUSE can range (from tip of nose to tip of their tail) from FOUR & 3/4 INCHES to just under 8 INCHES long, plus they have a TRIANGULAR shaped HEAD which is much SMALLER than their BODY. A MOUSE also has a POINTY nose and TINY black eyes. RATS can be as much as 16 - 18 inches long (including their tails). A RAT'S NOSE is more BUNT and ROUNDED ( again, a MOUSE'S NOSE is pointy) A RAT has COARSER FUR which may be BROWN, GRAY, BLACK, or RED in color. RATS can weigh from 1/2 POUND to 1 POUND .....but a MOUSE will weigh between TWO - FIFTHS (2/5ths) to FOUR - FIFTHS (4/5ths) OUNCES. That is VERY SMALL and LIGHT compared to a RAT'S size and weight. SO SEE, They are DEFINITELY NOT "the SAME." NOW you KNOW the DIFFERNCE between a MOUSE and a RAT. 🙂
Also, mice are not very social with people. Rats make amazing pets and can be trained much like dogs. They're very smart and probably the cleanest of the small animal pets. Mine were leash trained.
@marleinasmom I used to walk around with mine in my shirt pocket or on my shoulder. Great pets. Too bad they don't live as long. Mice can be social too, but the males spray like male cats, so they stink.
I @marleinasmom my first rat was JUST like a dog. She came to being called, she'd come on walks with us, if she got too tired she'd either run up my leg or go home, I'd get back and she would be waiting on the doorstep. Amazing pets, can't rate them highly enough xx
In my top five favorite movies of all time! Thanks for doing this one.👍
M-o-u-s-e ! They said mouse at least 50X !
Thank you for the reaction ✌️🙂
Fried Okra is great !! LOL Mr. Jangles is not a RAT...... LMAO 🤣😂😛😛😋😋
Michael Clark Duncan was 6' 5". He passed away in 2012 at the age of 54.
it's the 1930's
It's so annoying when people insist on calling Me Jingles a rat, even when it looks like a mouse , is called a mouse often and still they call it a rat! Please listen!!!!!
You talked right over him telling the lady in the home how the year John Coffey came to the green mile he had the worst urinary tract infection of his life. That's why he said he felt like he was pissing razor blades.
Percy did know the sponge was supposed to be wet, he just wanted to see what would happen and also to torture Del. They couldn't turn it off because it would be worse for him to be alive like that.
I don't understand why this needs to be explained, as it is clearly shown in the movie. Step by step.
@@MrsTreehouseBecause some reactors talk too much, and talk over vital dialogue.
Bruh. It’s a MOUSE for Pete Sake! A CIRCUS MOUSE!
John is every good and moral black man in America. P.S. An if John lawyer wasn't so immoral maybe John might have healed his son. The Black Man is God. PRAISE YAHWEH!!!!!!!
I just found your channel, and I love this reaction! I had the same reaction as you when I first saw John Coffey. He instantly seemed kind and gentle. It just shows what a great actor Michael Clarke Duncan was
Fantastic movie. Watch The Shawshank Redemption if you haven't seen it.
They have that reaction video on their Channel
80% of people who watch ask “why he go outside to pee at night😂 Because in 1938 there were no inside bathrooms. The shed with the “ half moon 🌙 “ symbol was the bathroom
Calling someone a sissy is just our nice way of saying the guy acts like a little girl. We didnt ise it like it isnused today. Sissy was a very popular word used anytime a boy cried you were called a sissy. Then the gay community went and made it have a different meaning than originally kinda like the rainbow. We used to see the rainbow everywhere no problem then the gay community decided to make it theor flag. So keep in kind when seeing older movies we used the certain words that one way or another now mean different something else. Hell back then being gay just meant happy that is the actual definition of the word gay is to be happy that is all it orginally means.
Why the hell do you keep interrupting with the obvious
When they tell a Man "Its going to be alright" or "You will be fine" before their execution it is to calm the man's fear that he won't handle it like a man, that he won't be brave and oddly enough those reassuring words do help. As a side note - While I liked watching this with you, the reason you so often asked what was going on is because you were talking over the explenation in the movie about what was going on or about to happen so you missed it and were left wondering.
Suggestion, with all due respect, my friend: less talking, more reacting! How about it?
halfway through the movie and you haven;t realized Percy is a villain and crazy as a bedbug.
It would be cool to hear what you guys think of the movie Thelma and Louise
Dude, you know that you don't have to speak every thought that pops into your head? You could at least pause the video instead of talking over important dialog. And, then you narrate to us what is obviously happening on screen. Is this what you do when you go to a walk-in movie? You know what, a person never learns anything by listening to his own voice.
