I agree completely. The last movie I went to see in a theater was the original Star Wars back in the late 1970's. The old B&W movies from the 1930's and 40's movies are the best. It seems to me, the current movies have about 10% of their budget to buy fake blood to throw around in the movie! With all of the realism shown on the screen is there any wonder why there is so much violence in the streets today?
