discussion Current films that will/will not stand the test of time?

[Gesamtkunstwerk]

Place your bets on which films (or series?) that are hyped now but also will still be relevant and rewatched in 10-20 years, even as cult classics.

 

And which ones that will not and why?

 

 

only time will tell tho

[differentkindahigh]

 

Machete Kills

Sin City: A Dame to Kill For

A Star Is Born 

House of Gucci 

Joker: Folie à Deux 

American Horror Story: Hotel

American Horror Story: Roanoke 

 

Hotel is the only one of those that may stand the test of time.

The only thing that will be remembered from that recent A Star is Born is that one popular duet

[EnigmaticAndroid]

A ton of Marvel/DC films will fall by the wayside with time.

Someone's pressed 

 

Also, screaming at including a movie that hasn't even come out yet. The desperation.

Everything as AI is coming to completely disintegrate the film industry we currently know

Yeah, it's a given when there's a billion of them and they're very same-y.

 

Personally I think it's already showing it's age, the very millennial type humour is just kinda 

[AxelFox]

Most of the Disney live action remakes. 

[Escape]

Not the "list entire filmography of your least fave" starting from the first reply.

 

OP: Ehhh, time will tell.

[kexin]

the Pitch Perfect movies already showed their age & we only needed one of those. 

[DAP]

Baby Driver

 

[LustSpell]

Most Superhero films will be a relic of the late 2000s - 2010s.

[Mitsouko]

...most

[Antikythera]

All heroes movies aside Joker and Batman trilogy.

[shinyshimmery]

Anything with a plot theme of resilience will stand the test of time... I mean we see it with the mean girls + legally blonde memes that are a staple of pop culture.

 

I REALLY hope Legally Blonde 3 is good. The first one is still remembered and embraced by the new generations 

[wehan6]

three billoards outside ebbing missouri has already aged like milk

Films that won't stand the test of time.

1. Franchises of Toys or Video games like the Mario Bros, Barbie, Scarjo's upcoming Zelda and Horizon,etc.

2. Those Avengers movies aside from the last one. I don't even remember how many of them and I have seen them all.

3. The Harry Potter movies because JKR will ruin her legacy.

4. I hate to say it but Everything Everywhere is aging poorly especially after I have seen it 10 times. It will be seen as pretentious and cheap in the years to come. Tar will outlast it when it comes to auteur prestige.

5. Those melodrama best picture movies because they're mid as hell like CODA, Green Book, Shape of Water, Nomadland, etc. The only ones that will be referenced and be studied for a long time are Moonlight, Parasite and Spotlight.

6. Ari Aster movies. Robert Eggers will outlast

7. Christopher Nolan movies. David Fincher will outlast

8. Leonardo diCaprio movies. Taylor Swift will outlast.

9. All Avatar movies when they released the 4th installment.

 

That's it

I think some standouts will be classics like Iron Mans, the Captain Americas, the Avenger movies, the Guardians movies & Thor Ragnarok, but at least half of the rest will get lost in the shuffle.

This is a good one. I think any movies centered around turning modern pop songs into acapella group performances (Glee & Pitch Perfect) aged horrifically bad.

Barbie is already forgotten

Barbie is going to be a huge classic imo, I feel like every element of it feels incredibly timeless.

PP1 is classic sleepover cinema. Your right about the sequels being forgotten though.

Marvel will fall off because so many of the movies have to be seen in a specific sequence.

For example, you have to watch No Way Home in order to understand Doctor Strange 2. To understand No Way Home you have to watch the other two Spider-Man movies. To understand the first Spider-Man movie you have to watch Civil War. To understand Civil War you have to watch Winter Soldier. To understand Winter Soldier-you get where I'm heading with this.

No you don’t. NWH was barely even acknowledged in Multiverse of Madness  and Spiderman Homecoming was an origin story. You don’t have to watch a airport fight in Civil war to understand Peter Parker

 

the whole MCU needs to be watch in order to understand a superhero is one of the weakest excuses. A child can understand Infinity War and not have seen the 10 years prior. It’s not that deep

[Gorjesspazze9]

People picking movies that have literally already been hailed as classics for at least half a decade+ now
