They are the ones on the afi list not the special editions, that is if you care to note the films released in 1977 and 1980.
Raiders is a classic and so is american graffiti.
i love alfred hitchcock movies, i like classic cinema, i just watched citizen kane for the first
time earlier this year.... don't get me wrong ..... those movies have their place obviously.
(who said empire is a classic?).... anyways.... the AFI list has a lot of hits and misses for
me, but there's a lot of good stuff there......
so you like classic movies, great !
does that mean you will never like anything current? did movies die out for you in 1980?
i the 28 years that has passed, has there NEVER been a single movie that you liked?
i feel so sorry for you that you feel like you can never enjoy a movie again, or feel
there is anything good out there....
it makes me sad as a movie fan, that you feel the industry has declined so much..
honestly, there are so many amazing movies out there that have come out since
then... .you really should let yourself give them a chance..
and i agree with you about 'raiders', but not so much with american graffiti,
i really, really liked the grittiness of thx 1138 from Lucas, if you're only talking
about his films..
special editions are nothing but a personal fan edit by george lucas to satisfy himself and should never been released or allowed to supercede the classic versions. Nobody would care if he released the oot in a real restoration. Instead we get 1993 laserdisc bonus discs.
so .................you , like many others, are going to change the past?
going to travel back in time and retcon it?
you're allowing someone else to do something that will 'supercede the classic versions'?
wow, that's a good trick ... my definitive laserdisc editions, THX faces set, and all the other
ones are hiding in the corner away from the dvds..... i still have them, and enjoy them just
as much .....
how many times do you people watch these movies to get so aggravated anyway?
every day, every week, every month????
later
