More on revivals.
Actually, dance movies are sort of seeing a revival, what with MTV Films' "Save The Last Dance" and the recent explosion of onscreen musicals like Baz Luhrmann's "Moulin Rouge" and "Chicago" (if you can count those as 'dance' movies) but I'm not sure that such a small handful qualifies as a full-blown resurgance. I'm all for it, though, if it means more scenes like Jim Broadbent doing those spastic backflips as Harold Zidler.
Personally, I'd love to see some more good Westerns. "Tombstone" was one of my favorite movies from the last decade or so. And what Westerns there are on the short-term landscape are pretty bleak. Costner. Ugh.
Dave, what do you want to see more of? (And Erin, have you had any luck logging in yet?)
