If you're curious, this part is pretty early on in the movie but the 'nudity' is very fleeting, and that's all I know because I didn't watch it after that and damn I wish I had a stocking wearing sugar mama to sit on my face.

They shoot a dog in the head in this movie and it didn't get an R? I don't care if there isn't much swearing, the content matter alone should bar children from seeing it alone.

I will say that this movie is much better than QT's rip-off of it Natural Born Killers because for the one time in his career, Malick makes something that isn't pompous and self-important.

If you were alive while these movies were coming out, you'd know how fucking shitty comedy was and how revolutionary these were. But 4+ decades later when all of the good jokes have been "homaged" to death, it becomes increasingly hard to laugh at jokes where you know the punchline. I believe the trope used to be called both "Seinfeld isn't funny" and "Hamlet is overrated."

>>218303654
The chart's wrong because every generation is supposed to be spaced 18 years. It's not rocket surgery. The old generation start having kids when they're 18 (or they used to before Jews poisoned the well) and those kids were *checks notes* the new generation. We can give a pass to the likes of the lost generation where they were frequently having kids when they're were like 14, but after that things leveled out. Then just look at that retarded graph
>17 years
>26 (twenty six) years
>17 years
>18 years
>15 years
>15 years
>15 years
>12(?) years
Whole thing is as much bullshit as BMI. If anything people are having kids later now (the well poisoning has been noted) so how the fuck would the gap between generations get shorter?

No it didn't. Easy Rider is still excellent. I would saw it aged properly because it knew the '60s were a failure. The counter cultural movies that declare the youth triumphant are the ones in the landfill.

>Empire Strikes Back is overrated because it's basically "Star Wars but sad."
I think ESB is overrated in comparison with ANH. It's not better.

>Star Wars belongs with Casablanca as best paced Hollywood movie.
I agree they are both extremely well-paced. You get big dramatic high points alternating nicely with moments of relaxation and a perfect gradual build-up of tension. I don't think they stand alone though.

A few more films that struck me as perfectly paced:

— The Hunt For Red October
— Psycho
— Gone With The Wind (don't remember it dragging even with the length)
— High Noon
— Zulu (This is more skilful than it seems because it's basically telling a true story. So they did well to stretch and squeeze things to make it dramatically satisfying)

The Two MCs drive around being bullied and beaten by everyone and their mothers, Jesus they even get mugged by some hippies at one point. The part with Jack Nicholson is good though. The message may be excellent, but the movie is painfully slow and the ending is just anticlimactic.

I'm not saying it's a bad movie, but it didn't age well.

I didn't get the hype for Raging Bull.
Dude was just a giant douchebag his entire life and ruined every good relationship he was in, and we just had to watch it drag on and on.
Accurate depiction isn't the same thing as entertainment. No one cares that some mid-tier boxer was a prick.

I too think it is overrated. I think it's a rare case of top-down hype. Lots of critics and suchlike swooned over it, and the general population went along with them. I don't think the general respect it gets is really organic. It's not an enjoyable film the way Goodfellas is.

OP asked for boomer slop and you are all just posting old classics. A classic is inherently not slop. Boomer slop would be shit that was popular but actually really fucking cringe and gay, like comedies and action films of their time.

I can't even think of any because time has filtered them out but shit like:
>Porky's
>Blues brothers
>National lampoons
>Some of the shittier James Bond films
