I hope that's bait.

Oldest "movie" I've watched was the great train robbery (1903), but I was a film student so that's understandable.

What's not understandable is for some fuckhead to come here on a board dedicated to film fans to state that the oldest film they've ever seen is Star Wars. You're either seriously really underage (not that that matters considering people born in 1999 are old enough to post on this stupid site, or that underagefags really uphold rules) or trying to stir up some shit.

Well consider my shit stirred.

Dunno. Probably one of Buster Keaton's silent movies.

Yep, film is old as shit. The gif I posted>>82215675 is from 1892, and the movie I brought up is from 1902.

What's your problem bucko.

Yes, I mean the 1903 film, if you could call it that by modern standards.

But I'm not that much of an idiot, you're just some stupid kid who thinks he's more clever than he really is.

This 1896 version of Rip Van Winkle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLaWj1dvCjA

If it has to be a full blown movie, then probably Birth of a Nation.

I think it's on Netflix too, as well as a colorized version.

literally hundreds of filmmakers and comedians have copied Buster Keaton in the last 100 years, i'd say he was somethng special

Yeah, it's on there colorized with a weird fucking musical score over it.

Nice dubs, pal.

For me, it's Birth of a Nation.

In terms of oldest movie that I've seen that I think has actually aged well, however, is Battleship Potemkin.

The 1930s-1950s is possibly my favorite era of film.

I also doubt Star Wars is the oldest movie you've seen, animated Disney movies like Snow White and Cinderella are older than you might think (the former being from 1937). And if you managed to have a childhood and go through American public school without seeing Disney movies like that, you're an extremely sheltered individual.

The oldest movie I had ever seen was zombie land and I had never seen another movie since. Seriously movies are a fucking waste of time to watch. I have an entire room with a library of over 1000 dvds that have never entered a dvd player, I have studied them and broken them down but I'll never watch them.

>>82216268
thanks, but that's an action flick, Roundhay is Kino.

Or
Nosferatu
I'm not sure which was earlier and don't care enough to look.
>>
>>82216396
iirc Nosferatu is 1920, but I also don't care enough to verify

Not sure what the oldest is but recently it would be Sherlock Jr. (1924)

still fairly spooky too imho
>>
>>82216481
Yeah, but it goes from being spooky to pants on head retarded pretty frequently.
One of the scariest films I ever saw was this Norwegian or Swedish silent film from the 20s or so that had amazing effects for it's time, but I never caught the name of it.

Scarface as far as I remember.

Aside from meme flicks like Workers leaving the factory and stuff, I think the first real old thing I saw was some really old film (1900-1910 probably) about the sun and the moon. It reminded me of Melies but I don't think it was actually by him. Was about 6 minutes long iirc. Or maybe 12. Dunno, watched it in film class a long time ago.

For the purposes of this thread, let's define "Movie" as "a series of contiguous images photographed on a flexible medium and projected on a screen for viewing by an audience".

Otherwise we'll be citing zoetrope shit and flickbooks ere long...

I've seen a handful of silent movies, but mostly just clips. Or ones too short to really be called "movies"

So maybe The Extraordinary Adventures of Mr. West in the Land of the Bolsheviks (1924)
