What movies have not aged well?

If that dude thinks the purpose of the scene with Pacino and DeNiro having coffee was “a bunch of tough guy talk” or was in any way supposed to drive home how tough they both are, he has serious issues with comprehension.

Didn't say that was the purpose of it. Ironic how you are the one with comprehension issues.
 
The Empire Strikes Back - that's some overly campy shit. I want to cringe after every other line.

That's a weird one... when it came out it was a big deal and it broke box office records. Today, no one talks about it... there are no references to it... no one cares about it... it's almost like it never happened.

I have no clue why.

Because it was all about the tech and the experience of seeing it in the theater in 3D. It was a spectacle movie it's not deep enough to be talked about beyond "it looks cool".

I could see that. I remember when I saw it (God, it was a decade ago now) I was watching it in iMax 3D and was immersed in the experience... I felt like I was there.

I suppose the story was nothing special... Pocahontas with aliens. The design was amazing though, I can't take that away from them.

I digress though.

the scene where arnold cuts open his eye looks really bad, but the terminator effects when the skin is burned away and its moving around still looked good imo

Indeed, latter day stop motion like that or Robocop 2 has aged far better than the CGI of the early/mid 90's.

Just to put things into perspective...

Hearthrob hunk QB prom king openly gives away his blackout drunk cheerleader prom queen gf to a nerd so he can rape her after a party...

View attachment 699267 ...They wake up together, she is clueless, the nerd admits to raping her, and she is totally OK with it

The nerd main character legit rapes the girl he has a crush on in Revenge of The Nerds and not only does she not freak out when she realizes she just had sex with a man she thought was her boyfriend but is not then it’s played for laughs because she enjoyed it
 
Watched The Departed the other day. From the dialogues to the clothes, it hasn’t aged well at all.

Are you 15? Got Down’s? I was referring to the baggy, ill-fitting men’s clothes of the late 90’s/early 2000’s. That shit hasn’t aged well at all, along with many other - more important - aspects about that movie.
