Zombie is a cool kat. I am into his music and his films. I know he is a huge film fan and has great appreciation of the classics. My fear is that TCM is bringing him on board so that the younger generation can relate. You can't force classics on people, no matter how they are presented or gift wrapped. Young ones today, need pop icons, extreme stunts, and hip music, to inhibit any form of interest in anything it seems like. I'm 31, and I had to acquire my appreciation for older films. You have to be interested in the days of yesteryear, the lifestyles, the actors/actresses, and the film styles, to appreciate older movies. There is an over abundance of stimulation that grounds the younger generation in the here and now. There's no reason for them to have any interest in the past. TCM, you have plenty of viewers who appreciate the oldies, please don't change to corral in younger viewers. The rise and fall of AMC comes to my mind.
Whats next.....Justin Timberlake hosting a civil war documentary on the History Channel?
Keep it real TCM.
