Hi Bis, I worked in the food industry in the past and I can tell you what I remember. In my country (Italy) for example, beef should be kept for 9 months at -18°C, 18 months at -30°C. Veal: 6 months at -18°C, 18 months at -30°C. Pork: 4 months at -18°C, 15 months at -30°C, fish: 6-8 months at -18°C, 15 months at -30°C. It all depends on the temperature and speed of freezing. I hope I've been helpful to you and keep it up like this you're the best
I've worked in the trucking industry, including hauling frozen meat from one coast to the other for export. You're given a temperature on the waybill that it can't exceed at the destination, but there's no control on what happens along the way. I've known a guy have his reefer break down for three days and let a load of pork warm up, then run the unit full blast so it gets cold enough to be accepted by the time he arrives.
@@rcrawford42 - Everything's live on satellite now. Your boss's voice will come out of the air and tell you to check your damn tires. I wouldn't drive a company truck now, and I didn't actually back then. Reefers have a little door on the back door where you can stick a thermometer in. That was it in the good old days. If a load gets rejected, you own it and have to pay to store it or sell it for a fraction of the value. You can take an extra day or two to get it there as long as you don't miss the ship, and once it's signed for it's not your problem anymore.
n my country, we don't even have freezers that have -30 degrees, the most I've seen is -24😁 Give me an example of a brand of freezer suitable for an ordinary apartment that has a freezing temperature of -30 C
I haven't read the book, but my theory for why Wendy sees all that crazy stuff at the end is because the supernatural side of the hotel has reached a fever pitch and is so strong in the moment of Jack's murderous rampage that the things that were previously only visible to sensitive people like Danny are now visible to "normal" people like Wendy.
The movie was "inspired" by the book, and King hated it. There are scenes and incidents from the book, but the overall context is very different. King's book was straightforward and had explanations that wrapped everything up. Kubrick's movie was deliberately made not to wrap things and to leave clues and loose ends that never do get put together. The book and the "sequel" to the movie aren't in the same universe as The Shining, and it's a mistake to draw conclusions about The Shining from them.
@@jjstanding7314 - It was a scene from the book involving the manager of the hotel. Kubrick threw out everything but the image. It's meant to be disturbing and unexplained. King meant it to advance the plot.
“ I can hear the circus in his eyes” followed by the music 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. That had to be one of the best lines I have ever heard anyone speak. You should definitely do more scary movies because your reactions to them are great.👏👏👏👏👏👏🤙🤙🤙🤙
@@TheJerbolYes. The meat won't spoil, but it will degrade in quality. There were arctic explorers who uncovered frozen mastodon meat that was thousands of years old. They fed it to their dogs!
Hotel is Timberline Lodge in Oregon. He wrote the book in Estes Park. The intro is shot in Glacier Natiomal Park. Interior shots were filmed in the UK.
It’s easy to miss that Jack himself is a victim of the hotel. It’s been suggested that Jack himself may have had a similar but less obvious psychic ability to that of his son but wasn’t aware of it. This could have made him more susceptible to the evil that resided at the Overlook.
@@andrewmcclure2378 I used to enjoy doing lots of hitchhiking trips when I was young and drove by there once. Colorado in the fall was gorgeous ! As for Mt Hood, I got dropped off at the base of the mountain and hiked a trail up to the lodge and had lunch there. The cool part was how they ran the chairlift for free in the summer so you could get up there for that spectacular view from Oregon's highest mountain.
I absolutely love seeing how younger folk react to this film, and your reaction was super cute, funny and genuine, by far one of my favourites lol earned you a new sub, cheers 🫶😅
Hey Miss Bliss, just a little *Thanks* for Your Great Reaction!😎👏 The Shining Compared - Book and Film It’s odd that two works you love can be thrust into conflict with each other. But hey, that’s a lot of the discourse that circulates online - fans of one film feel compelled to oppose those of another - liking or disliking a work of fiction - and for some stupid reason, we all feel compelled to have an opinion about everything. Usually, I find these conflicts fruitless and frustrating, but every once in a blue moon, there is an interesting discussion to be had. Case in Point - Stephen King reportedly hated The Shining - not his own book, of course, but Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation thereof. In a clash of two creators, both of whom have put out really valuable work (both these two pieces and in their careers writ large), I think it’s fascinating to look at the differences of approach and see where each is coming from - to look at both pieces on their own terms, appreciating what they each offer, while still considering how and why they differ. Both are, in my opinion, great works of horror, and they share many surface similarities of plot, location, and character, but in some ways they couldn’t be more different. Their essential difference is in the point of reader/viewer identification - though both works shift viewpoint between Jack, Wendy, Danny, and Dick, I think Jack is the main lens through which one views the book, while his son, Danny, serves this function for the film, and this makes an essential difference IMO. King’s Shining is a Heartfelt, very moving, tragic, terrifying horror story about a family in what is essentially a haunted house. Kubrick’s adaption is a unique art film, so unlike most horror cinema (or any other genre as well) with its singular style and cinematic vocabulary, and yet truly horrific in a cold, Lovecraftian way, and like in Lovecraft’s writing, there is little character or narrative really. When thinking of my favorite horror films, this doesn’t always make the list, and yet every time I sit down to watch it, it blows me away again and again, beguiling me, enfolding me in its cold, icy inhumanity, baffling me with things I’m not meant to understand, but which, for all that, never feel arbitrary - everything resonates, feeling horrifically real, but just beyond my ability to wrap my head around. In Summation: King wrote an Excellent, scary, sad horror novel and Kubrick made an amazing, truly horrific horror-art film. Both things can be True at the same time, but they could not be more different! I understand why King hated the Adaptation so much - I can see how he could take it personally, but I think this is a case where outside of his personal, well-justified reaction, we need not choose sides, setting our house against itself - Life is hard enough as it is. (I’m Glad to have them Both. I’m so Grateful to Both Artists for their Contributions.)🙂
It's good because it doesn't ignore the Shining film ( King wrote the novel sequel which they adapted, combining both elements of the book and the Shining film ). It's about Danny as an adult & of course the supernatural.
Biss you got off so many good one-liners in this one. Party Guest: “Great party, isn’t it?” Bisscute: “Amazing! I love the punch” Jack when yelling unintelligibly in the maze. Biss in her beautiful Romanian accent: “that’s me At Karaokes night”.

The atmospheric/eerie music is by Béla Bartók. Prior to this movie it was used to great effect in a couple of Doctor Who stories from the 1960s. It was also used in the most recent season of Fargo.
The behind-the-scenes stories from this movie are legendary, from Kubrick basically torturing Shelley Duvall throughout production to the prop department needing to build thicker doors sonce Jack Nicholson kept breaking through them too easily (he was a volunteer firefighter).
No, the Doctor was not the woman in The Exorcist. That was Ellen Burnstyn. Check her out in Requiem for a Dream. Gotta warn you though, it's a tough watch. Maybe more brutal than The Shining in some ways. Great reaction.
Requiem for a Dream is freaking great. I wish more reactors would react to it. Yes, it's a tough watch but art isn't meant to be only comfortable and dandy. People should challenge themselves sometimes.

This is a film that can be really impactful if you allow yourself to be sucked into it. The film gives you the dots, and expects you to not only connect them, but select in what order you connect them. If you're the kind of person that half-watches a movie, or expects/demands to be told everything specifically, then you'll miss what other people think makes this so great. I figured Biss would like this, because I've seen her get sucked into other films and songs. It's why I'm here.
@@jonlate4581 Not in any way. There are too many differences between book and film to be able to remove the need to think for yourself in understanding the film. A good example is room 237. In the film, there is clearly some relationship between the room and the Grady sisters. They are completely unrelated in the book. And a lot of the iconic moments from the film were invented by Kubrick: -Danny and his big wheel -The Grady sisters are mentioned in the book but don't make an actual appearance. -The Grady sisters being twins -bloody elevators -Danny's finger -All Work and No Play Makes Jack a Dull Boy -Here's Johnny! -The Hedge Maze -Danny outwitting Jack -Jack freezing to death -Grady sacrificing himself -The importance of mirrors -How often the characters lie to each other -The photo of Jack from the 1920s
@@GWNorth-db8vn King did indeed hate it. King also famously hated 'John Carpenter's Christine'. I think that maybe King just hates good directors taking his material and creating good movies with it.
@@Ocrilat - He expects them to film exactly what he put on paper. Kubrick never did much of that. I'll never forgive Kubrick for what he did to Lolita, though I can understand why he did it. That was a deep dark book that got turned into a perverse love story. I'm sure Nabokov hated it, too. That would have been a very different movie if he had made it later in his career.
I agree with the other comment. It seems that Danny got his gift from his Father, and his awareness of it makes it even more powerful. I think they were both providing the hotel with the energy it needed to bring the visions to life. The more they both focused on it, the stronger it became. Hence why the hotel was buying Jack his drinks.
2:03 Consider how different _this_ scene would feel if all they changed was the music. I mean, this is a drive along a majestic, winding, mountain road. There's a mountain _landscape_ replete with _foliage._ It's a beautiful _scene._ If you heard the song _Yakety Sax_ playing over it, you may expect _humor._ If you heard some _classical_ music playing over it, it might look like the kind of sequences TV stations used to play when they first came on the air, back in the days when TV stations shut down overnight. If you heard some _country_ music playing over it, you may expect the next scene to be at a roadside cafe, where road-weary travelers are swapping stories. But, instead, you've got _this_ music playing over it, so it feels _ominous._
10:40 General food safety is about 6 months for frozen meats. However, I've read that if stored properly and your freezer never loses power, you can technically keep it forever, but I'm not taking that risk.
You think this is scary? Read the Stephen King novel. The chapter where Danny finally enters Room 217 (that's the room number in the book) will give you nightmares for months!
This requires thinking & is not "the movie of the book." The novel (like all Stephen King) spoon-feeds you a ghost story to be told at night under the blankets or around the campfire.
I read the book when I was like nine years old. Slept like a baby afterward. It's not scary. 1984 is scary. Brave New World is scary. The Gulag Archipelago is terrifying. The Shining is neither of those things. It's instead a ripping good yarn about an alcoholic slowly losing the battle with his addiction.
This is by far my favorite reaction video from you , your sassy side came through. Stanley Kubrick was the director , Steven King wrote the book. Shelly Long was legit terrified and traumatized during the scene with the axe. She stated that in an interview years after making this movie. Her facial expressions were real , she was very close to a breakdown , that's how terrified she was of Jack Nicholson's portrayal as Jack , he wouldn't break character in between the filming takes. I saw this movie in the theaters with my dad when I was a kid.
This movie should have been over the moment that guy said the hotel was built over an Indian burial ground. Jack should've gone "Yeah, Imma nope out on that, actually", gotten into his car and driven off. Everybody knows that scenario can only end in tears.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver Saw an interview with SK about the movie adaptation. He felt that the Doctor Sleep movie did a good job honoring both the books and tied into Kubrick’s film as well.
The inspiration for "the shining"was Stephan King was on a book signing tour,they stayed in a hotel in Colorado,rumored to be"haunted.and he had a dream about his son being attacked by a fire hose.
Funny thing is that the eerie music used in the film was not composed for the film. It was composed in 1936 by Hungarian composer Bela Bartok, titled as "Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta."
Are you sure you haven’t seen this? You are a very savvy viewer. Very impressive. I also liked when you talked about other movies this reminded you of. Just shows how influential The Shining was. Keep up the good work 👍
Come and watch with us Bisscute.... Nice to see that you caught a lot of the important bits, much sooner than many who watched it. While the book was even better than the movie, I can definitely agree with such a solid rating. Kubrick was demanding and very precise as a director; so many of his movies are considered to be masterpieces, like The Shining, A Clockwork Orange, 2001: A Space Oddesy, and Full Metal Jacket. Interesting note: Shelley Duvall, already somewhat famous for her role in Annie Hall, had a rough time filming this because Kubrick went hard on her to get her best performances. They filmed the baseball bat on the stairs scene 127 times, and it took a massive physical toll on her. They also filmed the axe through the bathroom door scene a lot, again taking a big toll on her. By the end of the shoot she said her hair was falling out, she had anxiety attacks, and she almost walked off the set at some point. Many years later she gave an interview saying that she didn't hold anything against Kubrick, and that it worked. (I'm not justifying her treatment, but just explaining what happened.)
Basically the hotel is haunted with various ghosts. They can be seen by those who shine. Dick Danny and Jack can see them. In the end Wendy can as well.
the Stanley Hotel that was used for the outside shot is in Estes Park, Colorado and is right near the Rocky Mountain National Park. Its a really beautiful part of the United States, and not so scary except maybe the bears.
Tony (the imaginary friend) is actually a manifestation of Danny's precognitive psychic ability. Stephen King hated this adaptation of the book, but several of his books are about psychic children destroying their parents and/or communities.
Tony is basically Ewan McGregor. He plays the adult version of Danny in Doctor Sleep. (Danny's middle name is Anthony.) He was helping himself get through the Overlook crisis, which he wouldn't have survived had he not done so... so it's a good thing he did.
That first scene of Wendy and Danny walking through the maze makes me think of the library scene from Ghostbusters. Biss, this movie has a GREAT sequel. Doctor Sleep.
I'm only 18 minutes into this video and I had to pause it to tell you how much you make me laugh!! You're comments are very funny. Okay, back to the video......yes, you did pronounce the word "suspense" correctly (you said you don't know how to pronounce it).
The door was sturdy because he is an ex-firefighter who is trained to chop through doors. They got a real solid wood door after he chopped through the original lightweight prop door too fast.
‘The Shining’ is one of my favorites, and I’m not a horror fan - though I feel it’s more of a thriller. This was one of the most entertaining reactions of ‘The Shining’ that I’ve seen, great stuff. I think you’d also be great reacting to comedy. I just subscribed, and I look forward to seeing more reactions! Also, there was a permanently deleted scene where Danny and Wendy are in the hospital. Mr. Ullman visits to tell Wendy there were no dead bodies, they can’t find Jack, and there’s no signs anything happened. Ullman then goes over to Danny and hands Danny the tennis ball that was mysteriously rolled to Danny before he went into 237. I believe the scene only aired a week in limited movie theaters before Kubrick had it removed and destroyed. Also in Stephen King’s book, Tony is Danny from the future.
SPOILERS FOR THE BOOK....... Anthony ("Tony") is Danny's middle name. Tony is like the subconscious part of Danny's abilities guiding him. The hotel is feeding on Danny's power to manifest itself. That's why it wants Jack to make them "stay" there. I like to think that the Grady sisters also had the Shiningm, as do many other characters in Stephen King's world.
Bisscute is a comedic genius! She made Jaws funny, a first for me.. Now The Shining she’s made funny. I don’t know how but she did. Thank you Bisscute! 💕✌️🤪 Like and Subscribe for pure laughter and entertainment! 💗🌹💗
Food can be frozen for years but the nutritional value starts to decrease after 6 months for lean meat like turkey and low fat pork. Red meat starts to decrease its values after 9 months. It is perfectly safe to eat 5+ years old frozen food but the nutrients are next to nothing.the temperature must also be - 18 Celsius or lower. On the upside you can eat more without getting fat (in a way) 😂
14:35 This movie fosters a common misconception about creativity. See, there's _efficient_ composition, like essays, reports and term papers and there's _creative_ composition, like stories and _poems._ Now if you want to make an _efficient_ composition, then you can write your first draft on a typewriter or a word processor, like Jack is doing. But if you want to make a _creative_ composition, then your first draft has to be by _hand,_ with pen and _paper._ To do otherwise is to practically _beg_ to experience writer's block. Doing it the way I've prescribed, here, does not _guarantee_ that writer's block won't happen, but it makes it a _lot_ easier to manage.

2:50 That is Timberline Lodge in Oregon. And it's not at the base of the mountain, it's near(ish) to the top.
41:09 'Me at karaoke' Hilarious! 😂
This is a film that can be really impactful if you allow yourself to be sucked into it. The film gives you the dots, and expects you to not only connect them, but select in what order you connect them. If you're the kind of person that half-watches a movie, or expects/demands to be told everything specifically, then you'll miss what other people think makes this so great.
I figured Biss would like this, because I've seen her get sucked into other films and songs. It's why I'm here.
Reading the book connets the dots.
@@jonlate4581 Not in any way. There are too many differences between book and film to be able to remove the need to think for yourself in understanding the film.
A good example is room 237. In the film, there is clearly some relationship between the room and the Grady sisters. They are completely unrelated in the book.
And a lot of the iconic moments from the film were invented by Kubrick:
-Danny and his big wheel
-The Grady sisters are mentioned in the book but don't make an actual appearance.
-The Grady sisters being twins
-bloody elevators
-Danny's finger
-All Work and No Play Makes Jack a Dull Boy
-Here's Johnny!
-The Hedge Maze
-Danny outwitting Jack
-Jack freezing to death
-Grady sacrificing himself
-The importance of mirrors
-How often the characters lie to each other
-The photo of Jack from the 1920s
@@Ocrilat - The movie was "inspired" by the book, and King hated it.
@@GWNorth-db8vn King did indeed hate it. King also famously hated 'John Carpenter's Christine'. I think that maybe King just hates good directors taking his material and creating good movies with it.
@@Ocrilat - He expects them to film exactly what he put on paper. Kubrick never did much of that. I'll never forgive Kubrick for what he did to Lolita, though I can understand why he did it. That was a deep dark book that got turned into a perverse love story. I'm sure Nabokov hated it, too. That would have been a very different movie if he had made it later in his career.
Loved the reaction Biss ❤
Thank you!!
"You should've put him in the freezer". Damn Biss, you cold blooded. 🥶🤣
Haha
He needed to chill out.
@@treetopjones737 Nice🤣
Wendy swinging the bat, "Don't you have a baseball team in Denver"?! 😂
Garden mazes are easy to go through if you bring a hedge clipper. ✌️
Love your reactions Biss, clever and funny...
(and cute!)
I agree with the other comment. It seems that Danny got his gift from his Father, and his awareness of it makes it even more powerful. I think they were both providing the hotel with the energy it needed to bring the visions to life. The more they both focused on it, the stronger it became. Hence why the hotel was buying Jack his drinks.
2:03 Consider how different _this_ scene would feel if all they changed was the music. I mean, this is a drive along a majestic, winding, mountain road. There's a mountain _landscape_ replete with _foliage._ It's a beautiful _scene._
If you heard the song _Yakety Sax_ playing over it, you may expect _humor._
If you heard some _classical_ music playing over it, it might look like the kind of sequences TV stations used to play when they first came on the air, back in the days when TV stations shut down overnight.
If you heard some _country_ music playing over it, you may expect the next scene to be at a roadside cafe, where road-weary travelers are swapping stories.
But, instead, you've got _this_ music playing over it, so it feels _ominous._
38:28 and that folks, is why we are here!!!! 🤣👊🏻
Haha
I am writing this to help out bisscute and this video and this channel with the algorithm🥰
11:05 Never realized that it was tony showing us that.
For me it was just random scene to make the movie more horror-like.
10:40 General food safety is about 6 months for frozen meats. However, I've read that if stored properly and your freezer never loses power, you can technically keep it forever, but I'm not taking that risk.
Wooly Mammoth burgers are making a comeback!
@@toddhill7483 I actually think I might risk my health to try that.
I see, thanks
38:28 is the result of all the creepy tension, eerie atmosphere, sound, music, behavior, and premonitions throughout the film.
Bravo ! The most entertaining reaction I’ve seen to this movie yet !
Thank you so much
Your reaction was very entertaining. Great movies deserve great reactions and you dealt a winning hand. Good job, Miss Biss.
Thank you so much
Thanks for another excellent reaction. Btw, I just love the way you roll your r’s. 😘
Thank you too
You think this is scary? Read the Stephen King novel. The chapter where Danny finally enters Room 217 (that's the room number in the book) will give you nightmares for months!
This requires thinking & is not "the movie of the book." The novel (like all Stephen King) spoon-feeds you a ghost story to be told at night under the blankets or around the campfire.
@@chetcarman3530 I think that is the brilliance of Kubrick
I read the book when I was like nine years old. Slept like a baby afterward. It's not scary. 1984 is scary. Brave New World is scary. The Gulag Archipelago is terrifying. The Shining is neither of those things. It's instead a ripping good yarn about an alcoholic slowly losing the battle with his addiction.
@@rofyle You were way too young to understand most of it then.
Maybe I’ll read it someday, thanks for watching
No no! Not cutty cutty, stabby stabby!!! Hahahahaha!!!! Great response...
Hahaha
Yes, Denver does have a Major League Baseball team. The Colorado Rockies, and Wendy swings a bat better than they do.
This is by far my favorite reaction video from you , your sassy side came through. Stanley Kubrick was the director , Steven King wrote the book. Shelly Long was legit terrified and traumatized during the scene with the axe. She stated that in an interview years after making this movie. Her facial expressions were real , she was very close to a breakdown , that's how terrified she was of Jack Nicholson's portrayal as Jack , he wouldn't break character in between the filming takes. I saw this movie in the theaters with my dad when I was a kid.
I meant Shelly Duvall
Why thank you so much, I'm happy you loved it
Your reaction is the funniest reaction of The Shining by anyone!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This movie should have been over the moment that guy said the hotel was built over an Indian burial ground. Jack should've gone "Yeah, Imma nope out on that, actually", gotten into his car and driven off. Everybody knows that scenario can only end in tears.
There is a sequel to The Shinning, called Doctor Sleep. It picks up Danny’s story after the Overlook. It’s a good sequel.
It's a sequel to the book.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver Stephen King’s book Doctor Sleep is a sequel to his book The Shinning. The Movie Doctor Sleep tries to to bridge both works.
@@garybrockie6327 The film is an adaptation of King's sequel novel. It has nothing to do with Kubrick's film other than that it steals its style.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver Saw an interview with SK about the movie adaptation. He felt that the Doctor Sleep movie did a good job honoring both the books and tied into Kubrick’s film as well.
@@garybrockie6327 Great, except the film is not a sequel to Kubrick's film.
The inspiration for "the shining"was Stephan King was on a book signing tour,they stayed in a hotel in Colorado,rumored to be"haunted.and he had a dream about his son being attacked by a fire hose.
One of my favorite reactions: yeah, like pictures in a book. . . . till it kicks your ass! Danny would agree.
At 17:50, the movie on TV was 'Summer of 42' about a teenage boy and a young war widow. So you guessed right what was going to happen.
Funny thing is that the eerie music used in the film was not composed for the film. It was composed in 1936 by Hungarian composer Bela Bartok, titled as "Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta."
Jack had some shine to him as well.
16:00 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The smallest part here just makes me laugh hard. That's quite a circus in his eyes.
You were fantastic at predicting how the movie was going to not only turn out but the arches of the characters! Well done
Prob seen it before like most reactors
"Tony's a gentleman" lol!!
Are you sure you haven’t seen this? You are a very savvy viewer. Very impressive. I also liked when you talked about other movies this reminded you of. Just shows how influential The Shining was. Keep up the good work 👍
I have not, first time, thank you. Glad you enjoyed it
Come and watch with us Bisscute....
Nice to see that you caught a lot of the important bits, much sooner than many who watched it. While the book was even better than the movie, I can definitely agree with such a solid rating. Kubrick was demanding and very precise as a director; so many of his movies are considered to be masterpieces, like The Shining, A Clockwork Orange, 2001: A Space Oddesy, and Full Metal Jacket.
Interesting note: Shelley Duvall, already somewhat famous for her role in Annie Hall, had a rough time filming this because Kubrick went hard on her to get her best performances. They filmed the baseball bat on the stairs scene 127 times, and it took a massive physical toll on her. They also filmed the axe through the bathroom door scene a lot, again taking a big toll on her. By the end of the shoot she said her hair was falling out, she had anxiety attacks, and she almost walked off the set at some point. Many years later she gave an interview saying that she didn't hold anything against Kubrick, and that it worked. (I'm not justifying her treatment, but just explaining what happened.)
Thank you
Basically the hotel is haunted with various ghosts. They can be seen by those who shine. Dick Danny and Jack can see them. In the end Wendy can as well.
Your comments are the funniest I've heard for a reaction to this movie. Mazel tov!😀
Glad you had
38:28 A scream worthy of being in a horror movie! LOL
Haha thanks
Love the Eric Satie at the end there
Loved your reaction...you are freakin hilarious. The movie is really good too.
Thank you!!
The shining,was the third book Stephan King wrote,"Carrie"was the first,then "Salem,s lot".
the Stanley Hotel that was used for the outside shot is in Estes Park, Colorado and is right near the Rocky Mountain National Park. Its a really beautiful part of the United States, and not so scary except maybe the bears.
Oh I see
Best reaction ever! My fondest regards to your forehead. Now you should see the sequel DOCTOR SLEEP.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the reaction
@17:46 is footage from the movie "Summer of '42". your thinking was about right by the end of that movie.
Thanks
Tony (the imaginary friend) is actually a manifestation of Danny's precognitive psychic ability. Stephen King hated this adaptation of the book, but several of his books are about psychic children destroying their parents and/or communities.
The music is a collection of Eastern European 20th century concert works by Penderecki, Bartok, and Ligeti. Brilliant job by music editor.
"doctor sleep" is the follow up to"the shining".Ewan McGregor "ovi-wan Kenobi)played Danny Torrence.
Oh I see, thanks
Tony is basically Ewan McGregor. He plays the adult version of Danny in Doctor Sleep. (Danny's middle name is Anthony.) He was helping himself get through the Overlook crisis, which he wouldn't have survived had he not done so... so it's a good thing he did.
Loved the reaction Biss!
Definitely recommend Dr Sleep.
One of the rare, good sequels.
Lol! Wrinkles in the middle 😂😂
That first scene of Wendy and Danny walking through the maze makes me think of the library scene from Ghostbusters.
Biss, this movie has a GREAT sequel. Doctor Sleep.
Maybe in the future we will do the sequel
Good reaction. Please also try Doctor Sleep (2019), the sequel.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully in the future
I'm only 18 minutes into this video and I had to pause it to tell you how much you make me laugh!! You're comments are very funny. Okay, back to the video......yes, you did pronounce the word "suspense" correctly (you said you don't know how to pronounce it).
To answer your question, in the retail world, if a turkey remains frozen, its expiration date for sale is roughly 2 years.
Oh I see, thanks
The outside shots were filmed at the Timberline Lodge at Mount Hood in Oregon, here in the U.S.
Amazing
The door was sturdy because he is an ex-firefighter who is trained to chop through doors.
They got a real solid wood door after he chopped through the original lightweight prop door too fast.
Finally you decided to watch this absolute Masterpiece!

"We all go a little mad sometimes."
‘The Shining’ is one of my favorites, and I’m not a horror fan - though I feel it’s more of a thriller.
This was one of the most entertaining reactions of ‘The Shining’ that I’ve seen, great stuff.
I think you’d also be great reacting to comedy.
I just subscribed, and I look forward to seeing more reactions!
Also, there was a permanently deleted scene where Danny and Wendy are in the hospital. Mr. Ullman visits to tell Wendy there were no dead bodies, they can’t find Jack, and there’s no signs anything happened. Ullman then goes over to Danny and hands Danny the tennis ball that was mysteriously rolled to Danny before he went into 237. I believe the scene only aired a week in limited movie theaters before Kubrick had it removed and destroyed. Also in Stephen King’s book, Tony is Danny from the future.
Thank you so much for subscribing, hope you enjoy the reactions
SPOILERS FOR THE BOOK.......
Anthony ("Tony") is Danny's middle name.
Tony is like the subconscious part of Danny's abilities guiding him.
The hotel is feeding on Danny's power to manifest itself. That's why it wants Jack to make them "stay" there.
I like to think that the Grady sisters also had the Shiningm, as do many other characters in Stephen King's world.
Nothing to do with the film.
Bisscute is a comedic genius!
She made Jaws funny, a first for me.. Now The Shining she’s made funny. I don’t know how but she did. Thank you Bisscute! 💕✌️🤪

Her reaction to the princess bride is the best reaction ive seen to any movie by any reactor outside of LOTR trilogoy. She was on fire..
The twin girls and Nicholson's psychopathic expressions are iconic in this film.
Food can be frozen for years but the nutritional value starts to decrease after 6 months for lean meat like turkey and low fat pork. Red meat starts to decrease its values after 9 months. It is perfectly safe to eat 5+ years old frozen food but the nutrients are next to nothing.the temperature must also be - 18 Celsius or lower. On the upside you can eat more without getting fat (in a way) 😂
14:35 This movie fosters a common misconception about creativity.
See, there's _efficient_ composition, like essays, reports and term papers and there's _creative_ composition, like stories and _poems._ Now if you want to make an _efficient_ composition, then you can write your first draft on a typewriter or a word processor, like Jack is doing. But if you want to make a _creative_ composition, then your first draft has to be by _hand,_ with pen and _paper._
To do otherwise is to practically _beg_ to experience writer's block. Doing it the way I've prescribed, here, does not _guarantee_ that writer's block won't happen, but it makes it a _lot_ easier to manage.
