Classicism and commercialism ????
I take it from this statement that people automatically feel because something is commercial it's inferior? It appears that many psuedo intellectuals feel that if the masses enjoy it then it must have no substance. To my mind the opposite is the case. A classic is something that holds greater reverence with the masses rather than something with a cult following of a vocal minority
