Citizen Kane



and no way Saddles would ever be remade unless they cleaned it up


I was telling my 19 year old niece about it with her 3 roommates.....she told me three days later they all thought I was racist, even though I date a black woman

I've thought about Blazing Saddles. I wonder if today's generation would even get it. Would they even laugh?

You mean generation Y?

"Animal House"

I do not think a movie would be able to make the ROTC the butt of the joke without garnering heavy criticism.

Well good, maybe I didn't give you all enough credit. My kids loved Search for the Holy Grail.

this fricking this. have you ever watched 3 minutes of anything on nickelodeon or disney? it's atrocious and kids eat it up and then they grow up and make the transition to adult nick/disney comedy: Dane Cook and CBS. I hate everyone all the time... /rant

ETA: right or wrong, i found MST3K and Comedy Central all in the 4th grade. I steeped myself in comedy and can be admittedly pretentious about it, ha

Has nobody said The Godfather

LOTR, Casablanca, The Expendables 2, The Big Lebowski

Some people may disagree with:
Fight club, Pulp Fiction, Inglorious Basterds, Usual Suspects, Se7en, Silence of the Lambs

There's no way they'd remake a movie about a 40+ year old man screwing a 16 year old

They remade Lolita and it is the same premise.

As a fellow Gen Y'er (26 yrs old), I have to agree. Then again, I thought it was hilarious when I was a wee lad, so I must have been raised racist.
