Which movie moments wouldn’t work nowadays because of social media/smartphones?
Titanic
>>218199744The entire Friends series.
Pearl Harbor
>>218199744Taxi Driver was already 22 years old when Parent Trap was released in 1998. So it would be like making a pop-culture reference to a 2004 flick in 2026. Maybe Shrek 2 or Million Dollar Baby?
>>218199862You act like the only relevant factor is the movie’s age being referenced when we both know for a FACT that not all movies have the same lasting cultural impact. Some lines are repeated and produced decades after the original run of the film, often with younger audiences perhaps not knowing the original source of the reference, but knowing it is a CLASSIC moment in cinema! It’s a Wonderful Life is still parodied today in kid’s shows along with lines from the film. The same is true for Taxi Driver, The Godfather, Jaws, Gone with the Wind, and The Wizard of Oz. To permeate the collective subconscious and be sewn into the everlasting tapestries that decorate our shared culture is to find eternal life. Delivering your creation to the masses and having it resonate with them so that they continue to echo your creative output into the future you’ll never see, that’s the dream.
>>218199744the original Parent Trap is better
>>218201106The remake was very well done too tho
>>218199758>Jack gets drawing tablet.
>>218199744>alien
>>218199744Almost all of Seinfeld. Also, most horror films. New horror tends to have to find a way around people being able to call for help immediately. There isn’t a signal or phones die or they get forgotten/destroyed…it’s always kind of fun going into a horror film asking yourself “what’s going to happen to their phones?”
>>218201106>Hayley Mills and Hayley Mills I've heard of Walt freezing himself but now you're telling me he had a cloning device too?!
>>218199862Retard take. You can still reference that “onions green is people”, “I am your father”, “rosebud”, “go ahead, make my day”, “I’ll be back”, etc no matter how old the reference is. Even if people haven’t seen the film, most understand the reference. Just as most people have never read or seen Shakespeare, but understand the reference “to be or not to be, that is the question”, “Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?”, or the “pound of flesh”, some quotes are embedded into our culture and transcend time. We can see Charlie Chaplin in a cartoon as kids and despite having never seen a silent film, understand the reference well enough.
>>218201106Agreed
>>218201278*onions green
>>218201106This film made me think that a Boston accent sounded British when I was a kid.
>>218201303Today I learned something
>>218201194a lot of horror movies just don't bother and set it in the past or just pretend smartphones don't exist when plot demands it
>>218199744Whatever happened to Lindsay's twin anyway?
>>218201106Tomboy Hayley was hot
>>218201424After she got bogged, she killed her and used her for parts to fix her face. That’s why she looks better now.
