Cinema as an art form has evolved considerably since film was first made. The filmmakers cemented their place in history with their daring adventures into the unknown, using new techniques and practices, and establishing a foundation upon which others can build.

While these movies retain their significance as they are the pioneers behind new movie ideas or for launching a new star or new style, they can be incredibly underwhelming when viewed today. The advancement of the film itself has left many historically significant films appearing primitive, and the advancement of society has made some almost impossible to watch due to their controversial content. They might be trailblazers and trailblazers, but these movies aren’t as good as the history books would have you believe.

The impressive digital aging of the actors featured in the MCU has made audiences wonder if screen legends Kurt Russell and Michael Douglas are simply appearing via archive footage that is decades old. The impressive technique naturally had humble beginnings, first used in the years 2006 X-Men: The Final Showdown.

The initial attempt had Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen looking more like Madame Tussaud’s mistakes than their younger ones, and with the film itself being one of the most forgettable and poorly received mutant films, it will not remain. probably remembered as the first time that the film digitally rolled back the clock of its aging stars.

9 Frankenstein Meets Wolf Man may have started a trend, but it’s largely overshadowed by those who have followed him

Although the Universal Classic Monster Movies had been something of an established franchise for about a decade, 1943 saw the first crossover within their horror universe, pitting distinct movie characters against each other. Frankenstein meets the wolf man started a trend, which stretches across the history of cinema – from the original King Kong vs. Godzilla To Freddy vs. Jason, and all the way to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

When seen without its historical status in mind, Frankenstein meets the wolf man Looks a lot like the first attempt, and is a great comparison to how far the use of the Cinematic Universe has come since its release.

8 Racial insensitivity is extremely troublesome at breakfast at Tiffany’s

Some films don’t age well largely because they’re a reflection of their time, but few beloved films have aged as badly as the movie starring Audrey Hepburn. Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Despite receiving numerous Oscar nominations and giving the world the most iconic role of Audrey Hepburn, the 1961 film sadly features one of the most offensive, callous, and not funny caricatures in cinema.

Mickey Rooney donned ridiculous makeup and prosthetics to transform into a Japanese character, and though some still hold out Breakfast at Tiffany’s as an important piece of cinema, it is very difficult to enjoy it today with such a racist and distracting portrayal on screen.

7 Jazz singer makes viewing difficult in modern times


The jazz singer

The jazz singer The 1927 release is one of the most important in all of cinema, as this film marks the end of the silent movie era. The jazz singer served as proof that “talking movies” were the future of cinema, and for this reason, the film’s status in cinema history cannot be disputed.

While the blackface was sadly considered normal at the time, this aspect ensures that the film is incredibly difficult for modern audiences to enjoy. As a society we now know better – and honestly we should have known better too – and The jazz singer simply functions as a glimpse into a more racist and ignorant era in North America.

6 Monster’s Ball remains an example of the lack of diversity when it comes to rewarding rewards


Halle Berry and Billy Bob Thornton in Monster Ball

Even in 2021, there remains a worrying lack of diversity among the nominees when Oscar season rolls around. Monster ballThe importance of s was due to Halle Berry and the fact that her win for Best Actress was the very first for an African-American performer, something that didn’t have to wait until the 21st century to happen.

In the 20 years that followed, there has not yet been another winner for Best African American Actress, and although Monster ball is by no means a terrible movie, it would almost certainly have been forgotten over time had it not been for Berry’s thieving performance.

5 The video game film genre got off to a rocky start with Super Mario Bros.

It may take a little imagination to consider Super Mario Bros. an important film, but despite its many flaws, no one can take away the title of the very first live-action video game movie (only a few anime adaptations came before it).

The adorable Italian plumber certainly deserved his chance on the big screen, but Super Mario Bros. started a trend of less than stellar video game adaptations that would last for decades.

4 As wonderful as her songs are, Song Of The South just doesn’t hold up today.


Disney Southern Song

Walt Disney has contributed a sensational selection of classics to the film archive, and although Mary Poppins is considered by many to be his masterpiece, the film’s famous mix of live action and animation was actually made by Disney. years ago in Southern Song.

The film presents one of the great musical treasures of cinema in the song “Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah”, again Southern Song is another big movie made awkward by modern eyes, so pitching it as a big movie in 2021 is a tough argument.

3 Famous firsts aren’t enough to make the Lost World enjoyable

Even before Disney embarked on live-action and animated combos, there were filmmakers who were boldly experimenting with the idea. The 1925 silent monster film The lost World It was the very first time that audiences were treated to live animation and action on the same screen.

The lost World also holds the distinction of being the first film in flight, and without this and its pioneering animation techniques, the silent film would arguably be forgotten by time, as it was quickly largely overshadowed by the many senior monster films that followed him.

2 Red Dawn started the PG-13 era but didn’t do much else for the cinema


Patrick Swayze and Charlie Sheen in Red Dawn

The film that gave rise to the PG-13 rating is considered by many to be a guilty pleasure, an enjoyable and patriotic action film. To others, however, Red Dawn bordering on right-wing propaganda.

Regardless of a viewer’s side, it’s hard to argue that the film is close to a masterpiece. Despite the efforts of certified talents Patrick Swayze, Powers Boothe and Jennifer Gray, Red Dawn is an incoherent film, with a fine and too violent plot of the most mediocre variety.

1 The birth of a nation is certainly important, but it is also very offensive


1915s The birth of a nation claims many firsts in film history – yet, despite its importance, the film is best left as a relic of the past.

Originally called Clan man, the silent film is an appallingly racist celebration of the Ku Klux Klan and has even been cited as the inspiration for its rebirth. The movie might be a trailblazer, but it arguably doesn’t fit on any list of good movies to watch in modern times and should never be mentioned except to condemn it.
