Tony Yayo shared his perspective on movie classics, especially those from the 80s and 90s, questioning whether contemporary films can match their timeless appeal. The conversation kicked off with excitement about "Beat Street" being adapted for Broadway, but quickly shifted to a debate about classic films versus modern releases.
Tony Yayo highlighted iconic movies such as "Scarface," "Goodfellas," and "The Godfather," noting their lasting impact and comparing them to recent films. DJ Vlad, somewhat agreeing, mentioned the animated "Spider-Man" series and "Dune" as standout modern films but conceded they might not achieve the same legendary status.
Both agreed that the streaming era has changed the dynamics of filmmaking, with royalties and ephemeral content affecting the longevity of contemporary movies. They concluded that 80s and 90s films, including "Shawshank Redemption," "Pulp Fiction," and "Home Alone," have an enduring quality and remain benchmarks of cinematic excellence, unlike much of today's output.
