Milo and POTUS posted:60s-80s NYC is like my favorite loving era of aesthetic in movies, rivaled only by pre-handover Hong Kong action movies and maybe 80s LA (think Repo-Man, Terminator). Stuff like The French Connection, Midnight Cowboy, Taxi Driver, etc aren't just great movies on their own they're elevated by the environment. They've done a good job on this show of emulating it, that's for sure. Like you could catch some airborne STD just from walking down the street. Can't wait to see more of it. I know exactly what you mean. One of these days I need to sit down and write something about what I think about the gentrification that has happened in the last thirty years; I don't think the cities are worse because of gentrification but they are different. If I was given a monkey's paw and I knew that my wish to make NYC affordable again meant the return of the grime and crime that is seen in those films, I would still be very very tempted to make that wish.That is coming from a person who has lived their entire life in small-towns and suburbs and plots their escape to a real city. side_burned fucked around with this message at 05:54 on Sep 4, 2017 |
