    I'm waiting for Westerns to make a comeback.

    I like the spike during the 70's when all of those spaghetti westerns were released.

    Don't see a section with Disney/kids movies.

    Seemed like the market is/was being flooded with them the past 15 years or so.

    Today's westerns are what I call little-sky, no longer do big-sky panoramas where the land itself plays a role. Low-budget, poorly acted, loucy cenematography--yes, as a fan of Westerns, I still watch but am mostly disappointed.

    I love old movies — 30’s to 50’s.

    Interesting, I still like the old westerns, Clint Eastwood or whatever, kinda simple moral play, good guys and bad guys, and nothing to confuse my already confused brain. Saw this one recently, check it out, kinda interesting. Farfetched but who cares.

    Why the big spike in war films during the 40s?
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.
