Guys, you're still trying to replace FDR. I told you we can't do it, and we can't do it. Now, what we might be able to do is re-create him. Re-create him in the aggregate.

The consistency of nostalgia.
No matter when you were born, community tends to have been best when you were ~5 years old, the news industry was best when you were ~10, music was best when you were ~15, sporting events were best when you were ~20.

Coming around on a terrible new opinion: it actually rocks how much Netflix sucks. "Obliterating most of film history so they can better jam you into watching 90 seconds of an inert sitcom that looks like it's happening inside of a Zyprexa ad" is actually the gambit, here. It's cool to spell it out.
THE STING (1973) is now the oldest American narrative film on Netflix — one of only 5 released before 1980 on the largest subscription streaming service in the U.S.
