Change the title to “Does The Producer Know These 90’s Movies” because she is clearly as clueless as the kids about a bunch of these titles.

[@OblivionsAngel1122]

Did the producer have to fill in for someone at the last minute, cause it seems like she hasn't seen any of these movies either

[@chippendale1745]

yeah I was thinking the same thing

[@Cassxowary]

“it’s just me, my mommy, and my daddy” points to anyone who gets the reference 😆 but honestly

[@JC-bh8qx]

The producer needed to learn the movies before she filmed. The synopses and pronunciations are killing me Smalls!

[@ThEmB0nEz]

Bet the producer hasn't seen Sandlot either

[@BrianJPetro]

No disrespect, but these movies deserved to be presented by someone that has actually seen them.

[@jonasalexander]

This was painful to watch and listen to at times. The producer not having her information straight and seeming confused about everything she said made it pointless.

[@TSIRKLAND]

I don't like to criticize, but the host mis-pronounced SEVERAL words and names. And she was reading the synopses of the films like for the first time. It would be a more enjoyable video if the host sounded more enthusiastic, and more informed and confident. Just saying.

[@jadamson1031]

Agreed. And correct the inaccuracies. It's freaking Norman Reedus, not Dexter! It's a travesty.

[@inferno08]

@@jadamson1031 The only reference to Dexter was when they were talking about Anti-Heroes. He didn't think either actor was Micheal C. Hall, he is saying Dexter was an Anti-Hero, but on a side note, Sean Patrick Flannery (the other actor) is in Dexter.

[@WordAte]

The host clearly has not seen these films. She describes them like she is reading a poorly-written highly-contested Wikipedia entry.

[@DevinEDB]

Tyler Durbeh

[@foxsterreacts9445]

Lol the Producer doesn't know the actual plots. She looks as young as the teens so probably only saw one of these movies maybe.

[@SameNameDifferentGame]

Here's a weird thought: get producers who have at least a passing familiarity with the things they're explaining to the panel. "Rommy" and Michelle? Tyler "Durbin"? Come on.

[@buatbluestack9714]

And her name is yazmin, not candace. Different person. Wish she can do better next

[@MikeyPaniker]

This producer is not TV-ready, I’m sorry. She clearly didn’t know what she was talking about, and seemed to be sucking the energy out of the room with every pairing. It felt joyless.

[@donaldlewis567]

"Rommey" and Michelle....NOOOOO :) It's Romy and Michele's High School Reunion.

[@scorpiolife6971]

That drove me crazy too 😂

[@Captainpigraven]

I think what I learned today is that all hosts are not the same. I believe this is my first experience with this host and it was…not good. I realize different hosts bring different levels of energy and not everyone is going to be “on” all the time. But I feel like I just got finished watching an awkward 8th-grade class presentation. Presenter clearly didn’t know most of these movies, mispronouncing titular names like Romy and other character names like Tyler Durden. Some of the movie descriptions seemed a bit off or missing key parts. Perhaps worst of all, the host seemed to lack any and all excitement or enjoyment not just for the content itself but just…being there at all. If you told me she was a crew member and had arrived at work only to find the intended host violently ill and stuffing the show notes into her hand while saying “go out there and do your best”, I’d believe you 100%. I realize everyone has to get their start somewhere, but yeesh. While I obviously don’t expect rookie hosts to be able to function at the same level of experienced hosts, I certainly expect something better than what we got in this video. I’ve personally seen all these shows and movies and I can honestly say after watching this episode: If I hadn’t seen any of the material prior to this video, I certainly wouldn’t be interested in going and watching any of it. And frankly, as a viewer, if this had been my first exposure to React I probably wouldn’t want to come back. For contrast, compare this episode to another one with a first-time host from just a couple months ago. Bobin (sp?) came out and did an excellent job with that cast, with his excitement over sharing some of his favorite Nu Metal bands pouring through the screen. I’m not even the biggest fan of most of the bands he chose but even I was ready to go put them on blast after watching that episode. Here’s hoping the next new host that rotates in gives us more of that type of performance and not what we got in this video. And please, if you decide to give this host another chance, give her a cast that is made up more of her contemporaries, preferably the more experienced ones capable of carrying episodes. And let her choose her own skit so she can at least explore and present it with a bit of passion.

[@krispurdy78]

Yeah who the hell is Tyler Durbin?

[@just.overthinking]

This is 100% spot on 👏🏻

[@stacynaus2761]

Word for word 👏👏👏👏

[@doctorslayer2106]

The Crow should be in this list cause it was THE BEST CULT CLASSIC OF THE 90'S

[@Deedric_Kee]

Exactly 👍

[@donaldlewis567]

Those who don't know Buffy the Vampire Slayer - I feel sorry for you. Please watch the TV Series :)

[@MrJayzilla101]

Poor producer. Seems to be making assumptions that the reactors know people she mentions in her “fun facts” even when they don’t know the movies. Might be the editing but seems a little awkward.

[@Durbanite2010]

Who is this producer? Row-me, not, Rom-me. Tyler Durban? Vigilant justice? Did she mean Vigilante? Let's not see her again, thanks,

[@hazypink]

It's better when the host is familiar with the material. It's Romy like homie. not Ramie like ramen. Also, a host that knows the movie could have pointed out that Romy and Michelle didn't represent actual 90's fashion but more like 90's fashion faux pas. They were supposed to kind of be the dorky kids all grown up.

[@EverlastingTorr]

Producer has no idea what the movies are either.

[@luhguren]

Does The Producer Know 90's Cult Classics?! Seriously, did they just gave her a list of videos with names and fun facts about the videos? Holy sht.

[@nochannel1q2321]

If that's the case let's go easy on using fact to describe this

[@jcolson1138]

Does the Producer know these 90s movies?

[@UsoFromThaSev]

No.

[@atjatkatkaktark]

This was not up usual standards. New producers clearly had no clue about half the movies themselves and didn't appear to have done the basic homework of reading a few paragraphs summary prior to going on camera and giving poor descriptions themselves. Also the young man sitting with Angel still seems to young to even watch half of the movies. I understand that people can be new and I am not trying to tear someone down but these things made this probably the least enjoyable episode in a while.

[@Lorena-zu8cr]

Sabrina must have scoliosis by now cause she carried this episode

[@MSorge13]

Agreed! I think she’s one of the most knowledgeable people REACT has, and across different media. Same goes for Jaxon.

[@melissawinn996]

Sabrina is always carrying these episodes 💕

Lol 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆

[@melissawinn996]

😂😂😂

[@ElevenHymn]

The producer knew these even less than the Gen Z kids. Oof.

[@Gadriel1987]

I wish someone who actually watched the movies would host these types of videos. It’s just more fun and engaging that way. But let’s give the producer another chance.

[@bryantaylor2523]

Fun Fact: No reviews exist for the movie Fight Club because you're not allowed to talk about Fight Club.

[@shivin1962]

The kids were yawning while being filmed. That sums up this video.

[@shaunaray1]

Terrible recapping of these movies. And such random clip choices, they get absolutely nothing.

[@HBC423]

You can’t have a producer that’s never seen fight club, breaking the rule

[@theesassydiva7]

Jawbreaker walked so Mean Girls can run!!! 🤌🏾

[@liar2]

And without Heathers, neither would have existed

[@stacynaus2761]

Both true… I will never forget that look of her in the trunk with the lump in her throat. Also reminds me of Beetlejuice and the guy with the chicken bone in his throat.

[@melissawinn996]

Nah heathers, fast times at ridgemont high and clueless walked so jawbreaker and Mean girls can run

[@Enchantedpluto]

Them not knowing Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion and The Big Lebowski kills me because those are my fav movies ever

[@WVKid]

How dare she mispronounce Romy.

[@faeprincessmina]

This was horribly produced. This felt like it was written by Chat GPT and read off for the first time. The producer needed to be semi familiar with the movies in question. One of my least favorite and I should have loved this one.

[@vuesguk]

Sorry but We need joe or nicole next time

[@melissawinn996]

Yes

[@mattm8441]

Yeah, but hear me out.. How good would a double spinoff movie be in 2025 where Tyler Durbin hangs out with Rommy?

[@stacynaus2761]

Great idea, loved the movie choices, but … you can tell the producer had no clue about the movies and she kept mispronouncing the names of the characters. Only 1 cast member knew some of the movies, you should have chosen them a little bit older, it was a bunch of idks.

[@rusand23]

Thinking the same thing! I’m still watching and had to go to the comments to see if I was the only one!

[@MikeyPaniker]

Also, the adamant guess of Footloose for Fight Club was insane. That’s like guessing The Breakfast Club for Pulp Fiction.

[@lorenda79]

Joe would have nailed this as host.

[@shelbymiller5061]

Bruh even the reactors look bored of the producer… I’ve never seen such a low energy video from this channel

[@singingmathematician]

I kind of wish the titles weren't there so we could guess too...

[@nualamoore9261]

It would help if the person asking/informing these teenagers about these movie's actually knew the movie's that she's asking/informing them about, and could pronounce the characters names correctly. Hmmmm It seems she hasn't seen some of these movie's either.🤔 lol🤣

[@NvardQueen]

she sounds sooo detached lol

[@MiloTheHermit]

This video has no energy.

[@WhiteKenny241]

Tyler Durben? come on! I think you should have been 1 of the GenZ in the video instead of the host. all you did is read a synopsis of these movies that you obviously have never seen yourself.

[@niles8102]

Jawbreaker IS the 'Mean Girls' of the 90's

[@nualamoore9261]

Who the heck is Tyler Derban..? 😮😂😂🤣

[@kellygirlaj]

This is the most lackluster episode!!

[@Amers425]

Is this a new person? I think maybe they should’ve put them on a different episode first. Maybe one about topics they’re knowledgeable about. Everyone has to start somewhere though.

[@robertstuart480]

This was a bad episode, because there was very little "Hey, do you know this?" and way too touch "Here is what it is called, and here's the plot."

[@ExploreWithNazu]

Shows random NPCs fighting... Oh you don't know Buffy?

[@meganvalek2690]

Was it from Buffy the movie, though? I've seen the show all the way through and the clip didn't ring a bell.

How do you pick some of the worst scenes to show and then not even know what the movies are about lmao wtf

[@eddmario]

To be fair, the fish tank scene in Romeo + Juliet is kind of iconic. Not as iconic as the gas station shootout at the start, but still well known. And I'm pretty sure the clip they used from Dazed and Confused is the only scene anybody knows about that film.

[@Blessi85]

[@fordhouse8b]

Yeah, how could she not point out that Cruel Intentions was based on Dangerous Liaisons? Or that the Buffy clip was from the movie, not the iconic show? Or that the actress from the show was the same one as in Cruel Intentions? And she pronounced Romy wrong. And what the hell is ‘vigilant' justice? They hire people who cant read or pronounce the word vigilante correctly?

[@beriliumsphere107]

You should have gotten a host who has actually seen these movies. FFS. Also make sure she can read

Wait, Jawbreaker is considered a cult classic? Huh. No Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas? Event Horizon? Empire Records? Reality Bites? Any of the 90s Kevin Smith movies like Chasing Amy, Mallrats, and Clerks? Fargo? Before Sunrise? Usual Suspects? Cronos? Se7en?

[@Lapinporokoira]

Never heard of it until this video

[@BrokenNoah]

@@Lapinporokoira Yeah the movie never stood out to me among the glut of teen movies during that time. Really surprised it's now considered a cult classic. I guess I underestimated the following the movie have.

Saying only Buffy had the power to fight vampires was just so wrong. Completely wrong summary of the movie.

[@thatgeekdad]

This producer seems to not know her topic which brings down the whole episode. Most have a passion for what they are presenting/reacting to. Like the latest with Joe and nu -metal. I really hate to say this but unless her next couple are something she is passionate about and help give life to the topic, she is being the brand name down.

[@dominika85]

Sabrina knows her stuff. I'm a Spike stan myself. And to be honest, Sabrina seems to know most of this stuff better than the producer, who is just reading. And, sorry, but in what universe some of these are 'cult classics'...?

[@mikeduncan3953]

Cult classic is a movie which underperformed or was unappreciated when it first came out, and then through word of mouth or rose tinted glasses gained a large and/or devoted following. I don't see an issue with any of these movies being called that.

[@MsKaz1000]

to be clear cruel intentions they were step sibling so not blood-related and was a teen adaption of and based on a French novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses with the movie Dangerous Liaisons being based on the times and place of the novel
