Here's the thread to discuss classic films, what you loved/hated, what you loved/hated about them etc.

A classic is a film of high excellence (and is in the period of high excellent films). Not really sure if there is a classical period of films, but I thought I'd explain a classic film.

Films not 20 years old aren't really classics since they've not stood the test of time yet. I mean, the simpsons movie was good, but will it be as remembered as Casablanca is 50 years time? I don't think so.

Night of the Living Dead

Created a series, a subgenre was exciting and innovative at the time.

And still a great film to watch.

That's what I was going to type.

My old Warhammer Online character was named Oldbrother Lefthand, thanks to that movie, in particular this scene:
