Honestly? The real answer is nothing in last two decades is worth it. Not because it won't be worth something but because there is atleast 10% of anything being saved MIB so nothing is ever going to get exceptionally rare. I think a great number of people are collecting for the sake of collecting, not so much as an

I genuinely don't know what's worse. That collecting toys in mint condition is thought to be an 'investment' or that the toy companies willfully exploit this and intentionally ship less product than they can and reap the benefits as they trickle out each batch to maximize profit and avoid buybacks.

I hear you and I respect your position. I also recognize that film school and film buffs are more likely to know those examples (and really in this case, most of these lists are about informing us readers).

Because the reviewers probably don't watch any anime or watch very little. I would see your point if your argument was about something clearly mainstream and aware in US culture but outside of few animes that have broken that barrier (Dragonball, Inyuasha, Pokemon, etc…) there just isn't an awareness. But it's why I

You're about 30 years too late to even try to argue that point. But hey, thanks for expressing a minority view. I'll be sure to file it under 'who gives a damn' in my file cabinet of 'stupid shit internet people say.'

What fight is there to pick? You chose to argue that I've got 'feminist goggles' on and demanded I agree with your worldview which seems to accept a certain level of normative behavior without questioning it. I refuse to assume that age discrimination which is based solely on sex (i.e. she's discriminated against

First you say you agree then the second part of your own statement disagrees, make your choice. Patriarchy doesn't explain every disadvantage, it explains the systemic and institutional ones that face women every day.

So in other words you like to be think you're cool with equal rights but when somebody tries to enforce that view you coil back in fear? Sounds about right….

You don't need to be in some active conspiracy to be either part of the patriarchy or benefit from it. For the most part the patriarchy is an unseen and unconscious series of choices where the very elites in some fields make choices based on their normative views. You're just a rank and file person who may or may

Yes, of course, I'm policing your language because I used my own words to judge your argument……

It's Fred Astaire (I had to look it up) and it's exactly that, she's 28 in the film, Astaire is literally 30 years her senior at 58. It's completely father-daughter and nobody blinks an eye. Down thread I pointed out Roman Holiday & Rear Window had 37 & 46 year old male leads with 24 year old female leads. It's all

Well your resignation the fact that a certain cadre has far more impact on it than pre-hollywood leads to issues if we're going to be more exact.

I don't think every actor out there wants to be rich and famous, a good many do their craft for the love of it and don't want to be a bum on the street. That being said, it's got to be emotionally painful to be deemed unwanted simply because some other human being (with even less talent) declares it so.

It's really about chasing youth in their image modeling. It's acceptable for men to age, it isn't acceptable for a woman to. It's as simple as that. For the record, stop making a normative argument about beauty since what we consider attractive pre-hollywood is a hell of a lot different post-hollywood and really

Is it even weirder that in Get Smart they made a joke about Hathaway's age and looks due to plastic surgery? Atleast in the second film it was an awkward never consummated relationship….

Don't worry, will you with some regret atleast admit you just blasted the very core of feminism with complete patriarchal bigotry? It's easy to point at their industry and tell them to shut up and be happy their wealthy but this is about the media's portrayal of women as a whole and not just about their next paycheck…

This is how the patriarchy controls the situation. Nobody seems to find it odd when any number of aging male leads continues to star in movies half their age.

. . .Vanishing Point is normally considered one of the great 'car chase' movies of the late 60's/early 70's. Easy Rider came out two years earlier and was honestly deeper than VP but it certainly comes from that same vibe, the end of freedom to be replaced by repressive hate and corporate greed. Just for the record:

Lets break the list down:

I was just going to say that Kate Hudson's career was sort of an early 2000's series of rom-coms that never took off but because she was consistently game to take any small budget rom-com she get getting roles without being much more than a standard paint-by-the-numbers 'hangin' with the dudes' stereotype.
