I can understand why you can be put off by movies with bad or dated effects. But some of the funniest movies of all time came from the 70's. Blazing Saddles, The Jerk, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Young Frankenstein, etc.

I'll take a rubber monster over a stupid looking CGI thing.
Also: The 80s are ancient history now. You shouldn't be watching those movies either. Get over your dislike of older movies! You're missing a ton of good stuff that doesn't even use special effects.

Agreed! Hell, look at the 60's Bond movies. All those sets? HANDMADE. The Volcano lair in You Only Live Twice is an excellent example. So is Fort Knox in Goldfinger. All purpose built for the film and 100% real. I hate that movies are taking CGI backdrops and having the actors act in front of blue/green screens.

I dont watch too many 80s movies either! But I stick with my aged assessment. I would much rather watch a movie I can believe than something that looks like a play being put on. Im sure its not the most popular opinion ... but its mine. :)

biggest problem with movies from the 70s,80s,90s and its gonna happen to movies in the 2000s is that a lot of them are painfully dated and cheesy
