    I wouldn’t mind remakes of old movies, because personally I’m not going to go watch a movie that was made in the 80s even if it is a classic or was amazing at the time.

    I don’t care for remakes of movies that are like 8-10 years old.

      The 80s is too old? I understand not enjoying the style of the Golden Age of Hollywood, but what about movies like Back to the Future or Full Metal Jacket or The Princess Bride puts you off?

        Not sure, I like watching movies but I’m no movie buff. I don’t analyze movies critically for art and style, I just like it or I don’t. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a movie from earlier than 2000 that I can say I’ll rewatch it again sometime because I loved it so much. Tried a few here and there but they just never caught my interest much.

        Probably the oldest movie that I can actually say I loved and will rewatch every few years is 28 days later from 2002. I would even struggle to name any movie older than that.
