NF's Future Classics Thread (The Shape of Water)
No.
With a 92% yes rate, The Shawshank Redemption is a certified classic film.

Nope.
The only Del Toro film that has achieved "classic status" is Pan's Labyrinth.

I don't think so. It's a really good movie but not a classic. It won the Oscar just this year and yet, nobody is talking about it anymore. Nobody is dissecting it, elaborating on it. It's a nice fairy tale but nothing more than that. I've seen more pieces about Three Billboards, Logan, Get Out and of course The Last Jedi from last year. Those will be the future classics of 2017 that will be famous (or infamous in case of TLJ) for years to come.
Sadly, most of the time it's true but there are many exceptions to the contrary. I think from this decade we have only Moonlight and Birdman that are still being discussed. I think the previous decades were much better with choosing different classics - No Country for Old Men, The Departed, and of course epics like LOTR and Gladiator are still being discussed today (you could also add Crash but again, for all the things it did wrong rather than right). The 90's were even better at it. The 80's not so much (that decade had arguably chosen as many films wrong as this one we have now)mchekhov 2: Chek Harder wrote: ↑August 3rd, 2018, 4:40 amthat's how you know it's a best picture winner
