Any number of Chaplin films c. 1917-1918, it's not an achievement, lots of quality cinema from then
Fellowship of the Ring
Aquamarine 2006
>The Social Network
Triumph of the Will
Lawrence of arabia
Your mom's mom
This for me. Still creepy in a way.
I've watched older movies but Arsenic and Old Lace is the oldest movie I'd care to watch again.
this tbqhwys
M was fun
Seen it, wouldn't want to sit through it again.
a Sherlock Holmes one from the 40s I think? Maybe 30s. Love me classic Holmes, not that gay robert downey jr shit
Probably either Man with a Movie Camera or Battleship Potemkin. Really well done.
Pretty good cinematography.
Metropolis pleased my fembot fetish
All Quiet on the western Front
Buster Keaton's Cops
...
They used to teach this in film class but have since switched to Intolerance even though it wasn't nearly as groundbreaking because racism
It no longer matters how much of a technological leap film took because of one film, it only matters that college kids will feel uncomfortable because old timey racism
1920:
Metropolis
Sunrise
Nosferatu
Die Niebelungen
Dr. Mabuse
A page of madness
12 angry men, great watch, highly recommended.
star wars the force awakens
All Quiet on the Western Front

The General (1926)
Exactly. It was one of the first movies to actually be a movie, not just a filmed play.
one the best movies ever
Intolerance
Dracula 1931
so entry-level it hurts
...
not a fucking argument
Gojira (1954)
You didn't start with an argument in the first place. All you did was fish for (you)s and you got one.
Angels with Dirty Faces or The Maltese Falcon
Desert Rats
Cabinet of Dr. Caligari probably.
The Birds, a fantastic watch imo
I enjoyed a weird train film, it was pretty good
The General (1926) is superb:

I've watched some older than this, but this is the oldest that was thoroughly entertaining the whole way through.
This movie is racist
A trip to the moon from 1902
nosferatu
The Sheik, legit
blood worms ftw. never fails to catch me something. turtles, bass, catfish, you name it.
Menilmontant
Post yours then.

unironically this
Same. It's barely aged, still very very watchable.
At the rate were going movies made in the late 90s are already "problematic". Let alone stuff like Gunga Din.
Well King Kong is the oldest movie I've seen but for the purposes of discussion I recently watched Alexander Nevsky (1938)
...
Batman V. Superman® [2016]
Great train Robbery - 1903
Guardians of the Galaxy
Rhythmus 21 (1921)
Le retour a la raison (1923)
Ballet mecanique (1924)
Symphonie diagonale (1924)
The adventures of prince Achmed (1926)
The seashell and the clergyman (1928)
L'etoil de mer (1928)
Limite (1931)
you know he will not.
Thats a cute witch.
Also I really liked Frankenstein from the 30's.
"A Trip to the Moon" 1902
In truth, if it were any longer I wouldn't have watched it. plebface.jpg
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1931)
Kangaroo Jack
DW Griffiths Abraham Lincoln
Die Niebelungen by Lang
Tod Browning's Freaks. 1932
A film version of Dante's Divine Comedy is on YouTube. It was filmed in 1911 and features a depiction of Muhammed with his insides being torn out. I watched that last month.
The Marx brothers stuff. Besides the musical stuff, they really haven't aged much. Same kind of jokes that movies like The Naked Gun did 60 years later.
Col Kato's Figheter Squadron (1944)
Wings
No wait my bad, Wizard of Oz
This
The Bridge on the River Kwai
I only watched Duck Soup, and I found it mostly boring. The Naked Gun is one of my favorite movies, and I've enjoyed other comedies from the 20s/30s, so if what you say is true then I should enjoy some of their work. But I don't think critics judge comedy well (eg. Freddy Got Fingered is extremely funny), so maybe watching the most critically acclaimed one was a mistake. Which Max Brothers film is funniest?
Sherlock Jr.
Really amazing. Though I think i only laughed at one part. Its still a mind-blowing film
You wouldn't like them if you didn't even like Duck Soup.
Im surprised how well some older films aged. It Happened One Night is surprising modern.
Them!
Faust is fucking cool
>It Happened One Night is surprising modern.
My favorite film of the 30s.
Besides the lack of "cell phones" and "ATM/Credit cards" the film could be basically remade with the same script. (though i wouldn't recommend it)
Les Vampires
this one, great start for silent films
>My favorite film of the 30s.
Really? Frank Capra made far better films in that decade.
Hitchcock's Rope
Wait I guess Fantomas(!) Is older so that...
london after midnight
I haven't seen that one, but as a confirmed pleb I really don't give a shit about "better" in any objective sense.
Hitchcock movies put me to sleep.
The Mark of Zorro (silent version)
The Gold Rush
12 angry men, it's pretty good
How did Adam Sandler get away with this?
Probably Wizard of Oz. I always forget when it came out (1939), because I know it's pretty old, but it being in color throws me off.
