  • They made it twice. We're overdue for another one.

  • IDK if it's a "food shortage" but it's a fresh food shortage. The obvious similarity between ingredients is they are things that can be frozen.

  • You know who I haven't heard of in a while? Edward Snowden. I hope he does well.

  • No Way Out (1950). Depicts a race riot. At one point a character uses the N word dozens of times in a row uninterrupted. Much of Sidney Poitier's career would be hard to remake these days. Pressure Point (1962) where he's a therapist trying to deprogram a Nazi. Maybe that's exactly what the world needs a remake of right now, but we're not gonna get it.

    Basic Instinct (1992), Body Heat (1981), that sort of thing. They might remake it into a TV show, but they're not putting that much sex in theaters.

    Charlie Chan. A series of detective films about a Chinese detective who was always played by a white guy. Though you could make this movie in 2026, you wouldn't cast a white person.

    Countless movies where the subject matter is painfully out of date. They used to make anti-alcohol pictures when prohibition was a thing. Couldn't vs. wouldn't, I guess.

  • What are some drugs you think will make a comeback like qualewds or thai sticks or window pane? Does history always repeats itself apply to drugs?
