Bad Movies / Re: Descriptions of Bad Movies...
Last post by lester1/2jr - Today at 04:26:46 PMThis one DOES exist. Sergio Martino's "Atomic Cyborg" I liked this plot description
"A cyborg is programmed to kill a scientist who holds the fate of mankind in his hands. He fails and hides in a diner in a desert run by a woman who likes him."

Last post by lester1/2jr - Today at 03:52:51 PMI tried to make a point about people in ethnic groups forming criminal enterprises within that group and people took it the wrong way. There was a Jewish group that just got indicted for insider trading here in Boston and of course the Somali daycare stuff in Minnesota. The mafia is an even better example of what I'm saying: part of the code or whatever is being a part of the same community. Instead, I think people thought I was saying Jewish people and/ or Somalis are all criminals, etc.

Last post by zombie no.one - Today at 12:20:55 PMQuote from: Rev. Powell on Today at 09:51:00 AMI don't use youtube on my phone often but when I do I access it by the web. No restrictions that way. A YouTube specific app seems useless to me?
if I go on youtube in web browser on my phone, if I look at another tab the vid will stop
but yeah the app is not much different to going on it the 'old fashioned' way

I guess the store is mixing both, Critical and chronological (old), under the "classics" umbrella term.
QuoteMovies are often called classics because they serve as a perfect time capsule for a specific decade's aesthetic. When a young viewer calls an 80s film a "classic," they are often acknowledging that it represents the peak of that specific "old" look, regardless of whether the movie is actually a masterpiece.
A movie often earns the "classic" label when it is no longer part of the active cultural conversation.
Contemporary: Everyone is talking about it now.
Modern: It came out in the last 10–15 years; your older siblings or young parents remember it clearly.
Classic (Old): It belongs to the "parents" or "grandparents" generation. If a teenager sees a CRT television or a corded phone in a movie, it is immediately categorized as "classic" because it represents a world they don't recognize.
It helps to distinguish between the two ways we use the word:
Critical Classic - A film that changed cinema or had massive cultural impact.
Chronological Classic - A film that is simply old enough to feel like it's from a different world.
I guess the store is mixing both, Critical and chronological (old), under the "classics" umbrella term.
