| Pretty Self-explanatory... if you were to compile a list of movies that would be defined by that word and its indicative function word, what would they be? |

That doesn't really count as a classic

Neither does that.
I'm not sure either of you know the definition of "classic" |

Everyone's definition is different. We don't all have to fit in your perfect little box. |

That's a little harsh but whatever. I just meant that a classic is something that is older and has stood the test of time, those movies were only made 15 years ago. I don't really consider anything post 80's to really be "classic" |

Thanks for the quick heads-up. We could have used that earlier.

Okay, I don't wanna start another argument, so I'm sorry I took what you said the wrong way. Okay...... more classics.
Planet of the Apes.... definitely a classic! |
