What's the appeal of classic movies?

Love the black and white, it is so classic

They're character-driven and almost always have good pacing

This.
Movies like this and Miracle Mile just can't be made anymore.

I don't know.
What?

Too soon bro, too soon.

And that means they are easily ignored. They were basically props.

Hollywood back then hated communists

Everything.
Whats the appeal of capeshit though?

More like plot driven. "Character" movies were 70s onwards

some feet don't have fucking ugly red nail polish on them

Eh, it's always the larger-than-life characters that appeal to me with the classic Hollywood movies, plots are secondary. Also there's a fantasy to them, like these characters live in a world that's just bigger, cooler, more magical than ours.

Superman '78 is actually pretty close to the classic style of filmmaking

good. miracle mile was great and everything after would be a disappointment
he'd get texted some launch codes or something while at the vape and coffee bar

I like the themes more, its generally about very human concepts like love, money or jealousy.

Movies with amazing characters doesn't always mean they're character *driven*, back then the writers were more skilled at establishing stakes and payoff that worked in tandem with the characters, which results in you naturally getting more invested. After golden age, real character development like that started decreasing, which paved the way for meandering self-insert bs that's ruining films.

the only thing ruining movies is women and remakes

see: Lady Bird (remake of Edge of Seventeen + every other indie dramedy ever made).

Slice of life movie with no narrative thrust.

"The winds of change blew through the dream factories of make-believe, tore at its crinoline tatters ... The hedonists, the homosexuals, the hemophiliac bleeding hearts, the God-haters, the quick-buck artists who substituted shock for talent, all cried: "Shake 'em! Rattle 'em! God is dead. Long live pleasure! Nudity? Yea! Wife-swapping? Yea! Liberate the world from prudery. Emancipate our films from morality!" ... Kill for thrill—shock! Shock! To hell with the good in man, Dredge up his evil—shock! Shock" Capra 1971

Implying movies now aren’t filled with all white people anyway

bump

Better adult themes, characters and dialogs.

Edge of Seventeen was kinda trash. The dialog was only a slightly better than Riverdale tier.
Lady Bird was actually pretty damn good, though.

Imagine movies created not because of market research or explicit political reasons, but because of artistic vision.
It goes without saying that this doesn’t cover 100% of classic movies, but there’s a lot of them that this applies to

its just about going back and seeing some good movies you've might have missed out on. anyone who tells you vintage movies are better than most modern movies are just nostalgia driven boomers or self loathing millenials/zoomers who were "born in the wrong generation"

wrong

They were from an era when America was truly great, before liberals destroyed society.

It was Ronald Reagan and his trickle down economics, NAFTA and Republicans making Democrats take corporate money that ruined America

It was Lyndon Johnson and his faggy civil rights bullshit combined with Ted Kennedy and his 'change the face of America' immigration shit that ruined America.

Slavery , jewish immigration , appeasement of indians, ruined America

Imagine exploding one's love organs inside prime Grace

I bet he's fuckin that pussy so fuckin good.

All of the Old Hollywood actresses were glorified whores you idiot. Even Audrey slept with married men. Grace Kelly was the biggest whore of them all. Marilyn just gets the bad rep because she was the "sex symbol" and was brave enough to be honest about her whoreish ways.

I haven't watched many, but from the ones I can remember:
Casablanca - great
Dr. Strangelove - great
Citizen Kane - shit
North by Northwest - great
Vertigo - shit
The African Queen - shit
Seven Samurai - great
Lolita - great
I've seen quite a few more, but that's off the top of my head in 45 seconds.

But she was not married and she fucked every man she wanted, just as you would have done if you were Henry Cavill.

there's been about 3 worthwhile (western) movies in the last 10 years dude

what?

Laura Palmer kisses Dale Cooper. Laura is 17 and he is an FBI agent.

Imagine if they tried to pull that shit today. David Lynch would at least be crucified by The Mary Sue and the Guardian, among others.

ain't that precisely the reason they drop the audrey romance?

Shh you will trigger the incels

dano has 100% on rotten tomatoes. fucking kino.

I'm still inclined to believe that even celebrity movie stars in the 1950s didn't bone as much as the average women of today.

Name one.

>tfw I found out grace kelly was a massive home wrecker and had abortions
>tfw I realised classic hollywood actresses were nothing but glorified prostitutes that happened to sleep with the right people

i mean she patented an idea for frequency hopping to make a radio control signal harder to jam, and a couple other less useful things. we're not talking about thomas edison with tits here. good on her though. hard to imagine a modern hollywood actress making that kind of contribution

that's retarded. if anything they fucked much more. read some Sade or something

you'd be mistaken. marilyn fucked her shit up so bad with back alley abortions early on that she was eventually sterile and had horrific pain during menstruation. so they say anyway.

What do you mean, "the appeal of classic movies"? Some classic movies are great, some are boring. To me it doesn't make much sense to think about the appeal of "classic movies" as a group.

Same reason the entire American comic book industry exists. Pop culture is just Jewish wish fulfillment.
