a trip to the moon

I was gonna say "I guess it was Gojira" but then I realized Wizard of Oz, though in color, is older than that.

This.

Metropolis. It's actually pretty fucking stupid. Effects look kinda great for it's time.

This one, I guess

1928

I recommend everyone to watch it. they're not making movies like this anymore

this horror movie about a train coming towards the audience. scared the shit out of my child bride and me

oldest movie i've seen or oldest movie i actually enjoyed?

Nosferatu 1922

L'arrivée d'un train en gare de La Ciotat

Passage de Venus - 1874

because i'm not a pleb like all of you

Either Dracula or Frankenstein. Whichever was first both 1931

I was really surprised by the level of complexity in the set design of the Moloch scene that lasted probably less than a minute. Good stuff

keaton was the GOAT

kek

Oldest I've seen: The Great Train Robbery
Oldest I've seen and enjoyed thoroughly: Metropolis

Iron Man 1

Un chien andalou

>What's the oldest movie you've seen?
The first one.

I watched part of Birth of a Nation

You're joking, but I actually know a guy who refuses to watch anything made before 2000, or anything set before the year 2000. It's bizarre

Tell you what... spend 15 seconds watching this.

It's called "The Horse in Motion". It was made in 1878.

Now you can say you've seen the oldest movie every made.

youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=IEqccPhsqgA

which is?

oldest feature is nosferatu (1922)

Fight Club (1999)

It looked dated.

yup

That's War for the Planet of the Apes, it was made in 2017, faggot. That's this year

I'm not jking

Same

thats not a movie you dense fuck
its a zoetrop

This just serves to prove that the older the film is the worse it is

1895, there: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:L'Arrivee_d'un_train_en_gare_de_la_Ciotat,_1895.ogv
Everyone watch it at least once in French schools.

it's just a series of pictures taken from individual cameras put together rather than from a single one

I'm gonna piss on your face

Me too, but I kinda liked it.

Cabinet of Dr Caligari (1920)

Shorts are not real movies

I bet you're a manlet

I watched it in 'Murican school, but I think this thread is more aimed towards feature films, as opposed to that which was more of a proof of concept type thing

just about the type of answer i'd expect from someone with your intellect

Academy feature length in a theater? The General.
Academy feature length just in a some dudes house? Intolerance
If you open the rules wide open then it's since everyone's seen that right?

>Not enjoying Pharaohs kino
Literal plebs

>seen M (1931)
>but hasn't seen Metropolis (1927)

What did 14-year old OP mean by this?

The Good Earth.

Birth of a Nation (1915).
It was the first cinematic epic. 3 hours long, and grossed $100 million in 1915.

Häxan

I would argue that one photo from several cameras put together, or several pictures put together from one camera is essentially the same in terms of results.

But if you don't agree, you can watch "Rounhay Garden Scene", 1888

youtube.com/watch?v=F1i40rnpOsA

No but I've seen Hugo and deduced that it wasn't for me

MOVIES, not walls

Casablanca

DW Griffith's Intolerance (1916)

le chevalier du noir, it was kino

*tips*

has anyone here not seen the first movie a hundred times over? i took film studies and we'd watch this at the start of every class

oh yes

this holds no value

>Not sitting through the people who carve the pictures in the stone
Further proving my point

Showing a little ankle. Racy

>Further proving my point

no, it doesn't

Citizen Kane I guess, but the more fun second place is Sorry, Wrong Number

We have come Full circle

i'm speechless

XD EMOJIS ARE JUST LIKE HIEROGLYPHICS LMAO

Snow White, but the oldest live action movie is in all seriousness this.

The Public Enemy

Can't believe I fell for the old gangster movies are good, Cagney acts like he's on the stage.

I know people who won't watch black and white movies; and others who won't watch silent movies.

A shame. there are a whole lot of really good silent films out there, including...

Birth of a nation
Intollerence
Broken Blossems
Passion of Joan of Arc
Battleship Potemkin
Safety Last
The Wind
Greed
The Big Parade

if you count this as a film

Roundhay Garden Scene (1888)
Après le Bal (1897)
Both BW and the original colored version of Le Voyage dans la Lune (1902)
Frankenstein (1910)
Easy Street (1917)

Five oldest I've seen.

Birth of a Nation, I think.

...

>films that were made before there was such a thing as the feature length or short film

they count, get over it.

still a zoetrop

youtube.com/watch?v=Jl6NvqUM5IM
haxan, it's good

Silent films is where I draw the line to be honest

The Matrix

youtube.com/watch?v=o4sgIK5nWdg

Spooky

Same

Would you consider a Kinetoscope film?

I think you're being overly-technical, at least in terms of including some mechanical devices and not others.

I think when we talk about "film", we are basically talking about... motion achieved through a series of photographs.

In that case, I think both should be considered film.

Nosferatu and Metropolis are probably the oldest two, M might be the third.

anyone else sad that cinema was invented so late?

Ancient Egyptians and Greeks would have made top tier kino.

Birth of a Nation, Intolerance, and J'accuse are the only 1910's movies I've remember watching.

Where do you draw the line, then? Nothing less than a two-reeler? Three, four? What arbitrary time limit threshold is it?

L'Arrivée d'un train en gare de La Ciotat

That urban legend about it isn't true.

Cabiria(1914)

not even memeing this is 10/10 kino

Too bad. You're missing out. Two of my favorite examples...

1. The ending of Greed is a real show stopper. The movie is far too long (even the chopped up version), but it includes so many good story twists, especially the ending.

2. The Passion of Joan of Arc is both art and history (film and otherwise). The burning scene, especially if you watch the film using the new "voices of light" soundtrack is pretty intense.

spoopy

you're an idiot

An old mutoscope machine

youtube.com/watch?v=4aTur21yims

that's cool but does it have the latest marvel flick?

Aren't movies with different camera angles the same thing?

About an hour at least, enough time to have several acts, to allow for change of scenery and character development

The Kid... 53 minutes

youtube.com/watch?v=ZNyttSbCUCU

>feature length
The Birth of a Nation (1915)
>short
L'Arrivée d'un train en gare de La Ciotat (1895)

You all need to watch more silent films because for a "patrician" board this thread is embarrassing.

The Third Man, from 1949. I don't enjoy films that old.

I feel like it was some Lon Chaney Sr. movie
It's ridiculous how hard it is to get a copy of some of his movies

only pseuds think watching silent films makes them patrician.

I think it's either Heat (1995), or Schindler's List (1993).

Tell me about it. I'd love to see that clown movie but every copy is like fifty bucks or more. And the most circulated copy of Hunchback is such shit quality due to being oublic domain and I've never found a copy of the restored version out on bluray
