But isn't a huge part of the allure the social context of the film?

I mean I watched Midnight Cowboy, and I thought it was a great movie, but I didn't see why it was originally rated X compared to the movies of today.

I can appreciate Airplane more than the spoofs of today, and I know that there were a ton of disaster movies in the 70's so in 1980 when Airplane was made you could catch the references. But one thing that makes the spoof movies entertaining for this generation is that we catch the references (because for the most part the movies they are spoofing are less than a year old), now don't think I actually saw anything past Scary Movie 2, but from the previews I can tell you what they're referencing.

I was raised on Wizard of Oz, so I can still appreciate that even if the special effects are a little cheesie.

It's hard to appreciate something you don't know the backrground on, so quit getting all pissy for us not having the same experiences as you.
