@FfaerieOxide it's not that old to me either! But it came out 29 years ago.
In 1995 (when this came out) I would have considered any film from 1966 "old", so by that standard, I've been treating anything from last century as old for the purposes of these #ofysw film recs...
'66 films still aren't Old either.
You gotta look to ones where people don't talk for "Old".
'66 films were vintage
'40s films were classic
Come 'round the '80s you've got "prior art"
'90-2015~ you've get contemporary
Anything after 2019 released in theatres is "You wanted us to ignore Covid for this?"

You will not stand there and tell the class The Matrix is an old film. :|
I think the class would demand their money back if I tried to tell them The Matrix was contemporary. A lot has changed in the industry since 1999.
I like your classifications though.
Did you mean Christopher Lloyd?
That's what I said...this comment had me so confused until I saw @matthewmercury's reply!
I don’t know what the hell happened in my brain.
I think I read Walken, saw Lloyd, stopped reading to watch the clip, then posted so I never read Lloyd.
Whoops! Don’t stop reading, kids.
Makes sense. Walken's not in the clip and your brain was expecting to see him.
Exactly!
It also just seemed absurd that they were both in the same movie for some reason.
Yeah it's one of the fun things about this movie, the casting is unexpected. Christopher Lloyd's performance is solid, too.
Both!
