Why do you guys bring up the last one of the LoTR trilogy?

In my opinion, it was the worst of those...

[eastman]

The true Classic collection of Eastman:

* West Side Story (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Side_Story_%28film%29) (1961)
* Il deserto rosso (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Desert_%28film%29) (1964)
* Zabriskie Point (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zabriskie_Point_%28film%29) (1970)
* 2010: The Year We Make Contact (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010:_The_Year_We_Make_Contact) (1984)
* Асса (Assa) (http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%90%D1%81%D1%81%D0%B0_%28%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BC%2 9) (1987)

Basically almost all films that were produced until the beginning of the 90's were more or less good. These days, the vast majority of them are not worth watching.

Not true if I am asked. The ones we remember from the past tend to be good, while the relative proportion of crap hasnt changed, even though certain eras may produce more stuff that suits for someones taste.

[eastman]

@Mustavaris

Why i do not like modern cinema:

1) Too much IT technologies.

2) Films became quite similar to each other.

3) The scums became good lads (pimps, drug dealers, criminals ...).

4) Too much focusing on overpriced celebrities ant this becomes a criterion of film quality.

5) In almost all films you have a sex scene, is it so important to show it :suspicious4:

6) Very predictable.

[mustavaris]

Thanks for the clarification, I agree with you at certain level in certain aspects.

It is good that the trailer didn't hint on anything special because it made everything even more exciting and added more anticipation, or at least I thought so.

Lt George: “You know what would cheer you up? A Charlie Chaplain film! Oh I love old chappers, don't you cap?”
Cpt Blackadder: “Unfortunately no, I don't. I find his films about as funny as getting an arrow through the neck and then discovering there's a gas bill tied to it.”

[oldboy]

An homage to Citizen Kane officially known by many film associations as "The Greatest Film of All Time".

BEWARE SPOILER ALERT

DON'T WATCH THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE FILM

The true Classic collection of Eastman: 2010: The Year We Make Contact (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010:_The_Year_We_Make_Contact) (1984)I was fascinated by this film! The rest of the ones you listed seem pretty interesting too (except West Side Story, which I've seen multiple times in music class in school).
