omg I'm so hyped about this new additions to the National Film Registry ! like I was already super stoked when they added "The Truman Show" and "Philadelphia" last year, but now we get to see even more classics being recognized for their awesomeness . I mean, can you believe that "Sparrows" from 1926 is part of this list? it's like, totally mind-blowing! and I'm so glad they're including some indie films too, like "The Wrecking Crew" . the diversity in genres and eras is what makes this list so amazing .
I gotta say, this is awesome that classic movies like "Philadelphia" are gettin' some love . But I'm also a bit surprised they're includin' more recent stuff like "The Wrecking Crew" (2008) - I mean, it's still a great film and all, but it's not exactly a historical landmark, you know? I'd be happy to see more films from the 80s and 90s, though - they're some of my faves! And what's up with "White Christmas" gettin' two listings? It's a great movie, but one listing seems enough, right? Overall, it's awesome that the Library of Congress is doin' its part to preserve our cinematic history.
I don't get why they're preserving all these old movies . Like, most people aren't even gonna watch 'em again, right? They'll just be stuck in some dusty archive somewhere. I mean, what's the point of saving "White Christmas" from 1954 when you can stream all those classic movies on Netflix and Amazon Prime? It's just gonna be a bunch of old flicks that nobody cares about anymore...
