That's why I didn't participate. I saw this list a few months ago, and I'd already seen all of them (except Prospect), but I never liked how the classics almost always get bottom tier on this board. I'm fine participating with an all modern list here, but the auto-trashing of objectively good things from people who don't really understand, I just don't like reading very much, except to poke fun at occasionally. Participating would make me feel culpable.

You won't win anyone over by phrasing it like that, but then again, the people who feel attacked by that probably don't post on movie sites anyway, so they wouldn't watch it no matter how you worded it. Just have to accept that some places on the internet aren't really movie hotspots.

meh i'm not trying to win anyone over obviously.

i do think that we have failed as a culture to teach people to understand different cinematic languages though, which is why normies shun anything made before jaws or star wars or BTTF or whatever you think an appropriate cutoff point is. that classic hollywood, international cinema, and smaller more idiosyncratic current fare is dumped on to prop up, you know, the mcu (apparently the last portion of this series) or something, is deeply upsetting on a visceral level. and from people who claim to like movies!
