never saw is that like a xillennial cringe cult classic?
some of my favorite movies are slowburns and oldhead stuff. the godfather just felt like something a certain type of person forces themselves to like / look at from “objective film-making standards” removed from how immersive or resonant the storytelling actually felt to them. also can’t see it as being at all evocative for many people who aren’t older, white, anglo men
It’s when the same babies never shut up about Muppet Christmas Carroll that call such films overrated.

That is exactly the term for it.
I don’t want to hold up the godfather with everything you said. But I wish for a future generation that has the energy to enjoy art again.
