Frantic Canadian said:Yes, but we're talking about the films themselves, not the medium in which they're available. And how can anyone consider today the golden age of cinema with all the crappy remakes, reboots, and countless unnecessary sequels made just to cash in on a, sometimes long dead, franchise? And let's not forget the gimmick known as 3D. Plus now they have some new gimmick with rumble seats or something, with tickets costing over 20$ a pop.With all that it's clear that Hollywood doesn't care about quality. They just want to make as much money as possible without really thinking about it. If today is the golden age of cinema then I am truly in Hell.

Gatos said:Huge *face palm*. Frantic Canadian, I was been sarcastic. Please refer to this thread. Gaith made a similar post in my thread about the 70's being the golden age of cinema. I agree with your response though. I just felt it wasn't worth responding to Gaith in my thread.

Gaith said:@ MM: You will watch Some Kind of Wonderful, a Hughes-written gender-flipped reworking of Pretty in Pink, starring original Marty McFly Eric Stoltz in surely his most Marty-like role, and then you will exercise punishment protocol nine alpha!

Uh... *Googles*... I guess? It's certainly not a "thing"... not like the original Marty McFly and Lea Thompson sharing the screen...Mark Moore said:Isn't that the movie where some of the "Kidd Video" cast members have cameos?
