Why the fuck do old films look completely different to new ones, even 90s. Also until the 60s why did they talk in unnatural british accents I have never heard in real life.

Language evolves. In 50 more years, people will be talking completely differently than they do now.

So does the film deteriorate? Would old films look as crisp as something current when they were released?

Film is a direct descendant of theater. The "overacting" of early movies is more akin to what you do on stage, with the large, expressive movements and devilry. Shakespearean theater actors were considered the best of the best and accent imitation was probably unconscious.

Film keeps evolving for better or worse.

In the next few decades all dialogue will be memes and emojis. Produced by people your age or younger who know absolutely nothing beyond their iphone's contents.

Why the hell did you feel the need to Vocaroo your response, Mr Galifianakis?

Digital isn't inherently different looking, it just gives you more flexibility, and people feel it's a waste if they don't use that flexibility. So you get ugly color grading because colorists have to justify their existence, and short takes because coverage is cheap and editors need work.

It's like early color film making everything ultra-saturated. Eventually people will realize they have bad taste and move on.

Wrong.

It's called the Mid-Atlantic accent. It's a distinctly American accent that has worn down a lot, why it sounds british to Op is beyond me.
