You know how Citizen Kane is an oooookaaaay movie from a modern perspective but from the perspective of any movie that came out before it it's OMFG AMAZING because it introduced nonlinear time, ECU, voiceover, and a half-dozen other cinematic conventions we take for granted now?
I still stand by the Mona Lisa being horribly overrated.
That's fine. I've never stood in line to see it. But you also said that the "Mona Lisa is a horribly overrated portrait that only got popular because Napoleon liked it and the painting was stolen from the Louvre in a famous heist during the 1900s." With any luck you now recognize that this opinion, regardless of whether or not it is "complete asinine", is factually incorrect.
Well sure. I didn't realize it was already popularized by a bunch of kings before Napoleon.
