Charlie Chaplin is timeless IMO. thats why he is copied over and over again for many reasons....
what about stuff that is really good and hopelessly dated though, like The Graduate?

Hardly getting over it.

Who, exactly, has "copied" Chaplin (and please don't say "Pete has")?
The Graduate isn't dated. The cinematography may be a bit "period", but the theme and the characters (except for Anne Bancroft's hairdo) overcome that.
The Graduate is a bit dated, like say for instance Benjamin wants to get the daughter Elaine to have blood tests before they get married. In fact he proposes to her after they kiss! And the kiss doesnt even have tongues....lol And Elaine's engagement to the medical student Carl is a bit of a rich-family-in-the 60's set up. Then theres the reason Mrs Robinson even married Elaines father in the first place - because she was pregnant...it is totally dated socially, for lots of reasons (cool style though).
pete has.

Robert Downey Jr has. In fact, he pretty much stole his whole routine for some film he made back in the nineties.

What do people think of Jackie Brown? Love it myself
The opening titles are great with 110th street playing and Greer going down that travelator. After that it's a great big shit sandwich.

Lots of states in the US still require pre-wedding blood tests.

Ah, he didn't "copy" Chaplin, he impersonated him.

Notice how no dog will go within 10ft of Pete though (probably the smell of his rancid suit), whereas the canine world clearly adores Charlie?

Jack Wilde was more of a party animal than Pete will ever be.

You have no taste.
la rouge, you have form. You don't like Bladerunner, you don't like this. Any artisti arguments about film you make from hereon in are, as dotcommie would say, invalid.
