[@em9940]

bottoms was definitely my 2023 fave. just a very fun movie, totally recommend to do a video reaction for in the future if ur up for it 👀. also as a diehard scream fan, the sixth installment was another fave!

[@gayvalds]

Top A&J vids: 1. Red White & Royal Blue 2. Beautiful Disaster 3. Hallmark Horror

[@aishax1850]

Have you guys watched Beef and The Bear, both amazing series, definitely my fave of the year, and the two main characters just won Golden Globes

[@nesspresso]

Everyone is sleeping on Godzilla!

[@aishax1850]

[@chelle.belles0325]

Barbie movies are always my favorite that you guys do, I STILL think they need to watch Mariposa they would go crazy seeing the skeezites

[@caratjoy8586]

LMFAOOOOO I FORGOT ABOUT THOSE

[@katzbox]

YESSSS 2024 is the year for finishing the Barbie series

[@maddies.7285]

I’ve been thinking this for so long!!!!

[@qmellowd]

i prayyyyy they watch mariposa

[@Maudtattoos]

Wow, I didn’t know Aaron was a nepo baby 😳

[@AaronandJo]

LOL

[@chlothebro418]

the things i would do to see you guys react to bottoms cannot be discussed

[@vivivalley]

YESS

[@nadsvol6]

LITERALLYYYYYY I NEED THEM TO WATCH!!!!

[@y00gur7]

Absolutely !!!!

[@xfreja]

it happened

[@Mesiawhy]

I just watched poor things for the 2nd time in theatres and holy shit there’s so much to pick up on with multiple viewings

[@aishax1850]

wish i could watch poor things in the theatres :( same for saltburn, I feel like they would be so much more impactful

[@pariahcarrey]

i feel like aaron liking yeule makes so much sense. the man’s got taste

[@DaringDasher]

Their exceptional taste in film is actually shocking no shade lol seeing them give Poor Things and Holdovers their deserved flowers is super heartwarming! 😭👏

[@ameliabrewer374]

best surpise of the year goes to aaron having a BADDIE gf

[@bambi6435]

I’ve been watching since 20k and I’ve loved watching you guys grow. I remember finding the channel and being shocked at how small it was because you’re so funny. I found you with Emo the musical because I didn’t think anyone else had heard of it before. Love you guys!

[@watchvidzwithAJ]

Jo is looking cute and scrumptious today

[@cynthiaxwangcomedy]

Thank goodness this video alerted me to the existence of the Ashley Tisdale video. I thought I had watched every Aaron and Jo video but somehow that one escaped me. The algorithm wild for that one. The sponsorship message in that video was a gem. Happy New Year boys!

[@toot8510]

you guys don’t know how often i rewatch that hallmark video it’s like a perfect movie for you guys

[@jordy_muhnordy]

I gotta say, Aaron and Jo playing "Pillow Fight" never fails to make me cry laughing (from their Playing old Disney Games video)

[@Sara-ud7co]

This channel makes me feel like I’m just hanging out with the homies

[@LouCooper-wq1jr]

After spiderverse finished my partner turned to me and said “I don’t want to see the next movie, I don’t care how good it was I am so angry that this was a part 1. I will not see it.” I’m sure when the next part comes out that’ll change but I’m glad we weren’t the only ones who felt slighted by the lack of a complete story!

[@sagelouisee]

no literally, me and my boyfriend were so disappointed 😭 but we definitely have to watch the next one I don’t think I can stand to not see how it ends!

[@HoundsBane]

I saw it late so that part had been spoiled so I guess I wasn’t as disappointed.

[@Karin-fj3eu]

Idk why but I kinda expected it but the people I was with were so distraught lol poor children

[@themoviecritic1092]

I genuinely don't get why the ending pissed so many people off tbh, lmao. They did say the film was going to be a part one for a good bit, I guess people didn't pay attention 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@sagelouisee]

@@themoviecritic1092well like some of us we didn’t see anything about the movie prior lol, wasn’t about not paying attention. Not everyone does research about a movie before watching it.

[@lovelysiyeon]

seeing y’all react to bottoms is a need

[@charlotterose4202]

im super broad in my music taste and always looking for new things to listen to so for each album i added the songs you mentioned to a new playlist, thank you guys for another stellar year of content, and for helping me with my first 2024 playlist

[@shouldntve]

I agree about the B-rated movies! It's like i'm laughing at them anyway, so when you guys are making jokes it just makes it x2 funnier

[@fruityfish3005]

when it comes to movies and music i’m super indecisive, so my top 5 movies are: 1. Talk To Me 2. Bottoms 3. ATSV 4. Evil Dead Rise 5. Elemental probably in that order too (honorable mention, Saltburn mainly bc of the music, characters, and the way it was shot) also, if you guys do end up watching bottoms, PLEASE film it because some of the dialogue in that film is ridiculous and i love people’s reactions to it. +(plus i think you guys would like it)

[@queb6638]

YES!!! I hope to god they do a longer reaction to it and put it on KZbin 😭😭

[@garfieldiloveyou]

OMG YALL NEED TO WATCH BOTTOMS

[@evil_michael_cera]

honestly, up until this point, i hadnt heard of the holdovers but now im lwk getting fomo(a temporary problem when it comes to cinema, usually)!! u guys really sold it to me, adding it to my letterboxd watchlist rn!

[@kaligg8]

this channel and you boys give me so much happiness and joy. keep going

[@allisonbrownn]

i’m so happy i found you guys and just before 100k too like you guys have grown so much congrats guys

[@xKiittyWhitex]

Always love to hear what your guys' favorites are, as always you have great taste. And every time you mention any music ever I have to go listen right away, peak music taste.

[@catherineu5784]

Thank you SO MUCH for the song and album recommendations, even though it’s not your typical content… my year just started on such a sonic high note 🥹🫶🏽

[@noneoftheabove5816]

i can't believe i found you guys again after lockdown days, good to see you're going strong

[@alorapowell]

Iron Claw had to be within my top three movies of the year! Can't wait to see if you guys review it :)

[@deliastites5056]

Speaking of movies that would kill a conservative, Saltburn was one of my favs of the year

[@c.nk.01]

it's so divisive but honestly it's so pretty and barry and jacob are so good that i don't care

[@idkaliciaa]

Left iron claw on New Year’s Day crying with my sister. Movie hit

[@lanaholic3015]

My top fav movies 1) poor things 2) bottoms 3)either Priscilla or killers of the flower moon

[@katzbox]

I haven't seen Priscilla yet but I want to BADLY

[@fallingpetals15]

@@katzboxyou definitely should give it a watch!

[@c.nk.01]

from someone who hasn't consumed a lot of media besides music released in 2023 didn't really listen to a lot of albums that came out last year, mostly singles :/ but top 5 songs this year in no particular order: everything is quiet now - knocked loose, amen! - bring me the horizon, famous last words - ethel cain, wife mother lover crow - hilary woods, and i have an unreasonable attachment to the spiritbox remix of cobra by megan thee stallion

[@serenityq26]

waiting for yall to get back to the reality tv show roasts lol SO GOOD

[@jeybox]

OMG NO WAY i used to be so in love with yeule's olderish releases im so happy youve heard of the artist!! the pretty bones mv alone inspired so many of my art pieces for my last years of high school

[@fkacoolgrl]

y'alls tastes in music is super cool, im just adding everything to my playlist 😭

[@lordheroicguy]

That's cool, that's cool. But its missing something. Where's After everything tho?

[@AaronandJo]

LOL

[@drewthehobo3732]

Found you guys this year through your Barbie videos (of course!) and have been loving the Percy Jackson series so far! If you haven’t seen it yet, I’d love to hear your thoughts on the TV series Scavengers Reign that came out last year. Just found out about it and watched through it in a couple days, so good!

[@malena6837]

please watch bottoms! it’s sooo funny and i think you guys would make it even funnier. :)

[@zzombiedogg]

saw yeule in the thumbnail and immediately clicked. im aware shes not unknown or anything but she deserves sm more attention

[@dereklasker5350]

I’m kinda new here so don’t know if yall are King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard fans but yall would love PetroDragonic Apocalypse. Bunch of prog metal bangers about the end of the world and if you somehow don’t like that album the band has at least two or three other albums you will like
