The man who shot Liberty Valance

[The Poet]

On this topic in general, may a crazy FOG make one humble suggestion? The next time one of you kids go to Blockbuster, steer away from the Will Ferrell/Jack Black/Eddie Murphy/Shia LaBoeuf/Whoever-The-Fark crap you are accustomed to, and go instead into the classics section and grab a great flick instead? If you need suggestions, you can go to AFI(dot)com, the site for the American Film Institute, and there find several hundred choices.

Just my , so take it or leave it. Hell, I don't care - I've seen them.

I don't know what age group you refer to as "kids", but I'm 30 and love movies from the 1910s all the way up to nowadays. Movies are good today, but they have lost a bit of the epicness of the 60s and before. Spartacus, The Ten Commandments, Ben-Hur, Planet of the Apes, Citizen Kane, Casablanca, and numerous others are true epic classics. I think the difference between great classic films and todays good films are that we no longer have a long attention span. Most of America can't wait over three minutes for something to blow up.

I could REALLY respond to this, but something tells me I would just end up offending someone.

All I will say is don't assume because some of us are "kids" compared to you that we cannot and do not appreciate CLASSIC cinema.

You might, but it would not be me. As I said, it was a humble suggestion, and I really don't care. Besides, I don't take offense at opinions, as long as they are consistent.
