[quote=Anonymous]I mean yes movies in the 80s had a shocking lack of representation. That movie would look different if it was made today. The sky is also blue? Trying to erase the past just makes us more likely to repeat it. I don't understand the point of this. We should look at time periods critically for the socio economic and cultural periods they came from but it is folly to hold them to today's standards. It is also folly to say 'these things are not worth watching or knowing about because they don't meet today's standards' as their flaws should be held up as a warning to future generations.[/quote]
