[B-Train]

If citizen Kane was soooooo good... then how come they never made a citizen Kane 2?

vintagecinephobics always start with “I have lots of old movie friends..” when they are about to bash.

old movies make me sleepy. There it’s out in the open.

Far worse is “I love old movies like Back to the Future”

Technically BTTF *is* an old movie.. especially when you consider that we’re well further into the ‘future’ from 1985 than Marty was into the past when he traveled back to 1955.

slightly better than I love old movies like Back to the Future 3 though. Then you have to question everything they say.

You’re an old movie

 

[Mr. Blue Sky]

You’re an old movie

At least I’m not the old movie version of A Chorus Line that you seem to be so fond of.

which brings up another question. Why are musicals so polarizing. I enjoyed Annie when I was a kid. Wizard of Oz is probably my favorite movie of all time. But I can’t really think of another one I enjoyed. If you are acting and suddenly the whole set breaks out in song and dance, my suspension of disbelief is toast. Why can’t I buy into This being normal life behavior?
