I miss big breasts in movies too. I mean stunts! I miss big stunts.
Reminds me of when Hatari! (1962) first came out. Mercilessly panned and considered a terrible, silly vehicle for John Wayne. (Put the chimpanzee down, Duke. Git yer swagger back in the saddle.) But now I see it getting three-and-a-half out of four stars in a lot of places. It's the African footage. You just can't get that kind of footage anymore. I think there's a whole class of movies creeping up towards masterpiece just for their footage.
War movies are another example. Today's movies made about past wars always feel small, because they don't have all the planes, tanks, heavy artillery, etc. to depict a major engagement. Back in the day, they were readily available. True, we can CGI things up to epic scale today, but it always has that artificial look about it.
Maybe eventually we'll get the CGI all ironed out. Then we can once more do big breasts stunts in movies.
