Not too long ago, reading books was also considered evil. It was argued that they were addictive and antisocial.

You sound like those people who think Battleship Potemkin is the greatest movie of all time.

Yeah, well, they were wrong and I'm right.

100% critic & 86% user approval on Rotten Tomatoes, 97/100 on Metacritic. Universally acclaimed, massively influential. Have you considered that Battleship Potemkin might just be a good movie? Have you tried watching it?

  • I have watched it multiple times, and I do understand that in order to understand what is great art, you have to be familiar with art history.

    That being said, blaming the kids for a failed education system, is pointing the finger in the wrong direction. It is not their attention which is the problem, but the out-dated methods they use trying to grab it. Being bitter and blaming everything, but themselves, is just showing how irrelevant they have all become.
