I can't WAIT until we this fad run's it's course.How it will all fit into film history, I can only guess...but for some it's going to be very embarassing, and the films themselves, just won't stand up to the classics.
While it's a generally denigrated film genre to begin with, there is NOTHING here now that's going to be produced, in it's current form, that will stand the test of time. Hopefully.
It will sell alot of popcorn and nachos with cheese, but that's about it.
I saw "Rocky" for the first time in twenty or so years the other day. My first viewing of the film in it's theatrical release, was in Brooklyn on a Saturday night, in a packed movie theater.
The film stands up as one of those classic, because it has all those things...including the "backstory" that makes it singular and special.
I can't separate the non-backstory of these patriotic films with the seemless and overt manipulation for no apparent purpose other than to make money. Go figure.
