Do you like the older flicks better?
The old B&W movies of yesteryear seem to possess a quality seldom seen in modern movies. What is it? Do you agree that the old movies had something that the modern ones don't? Is this merely a subjective and biased opinion, based on an element of nostalgia, or is my sentiment fairly widespread? A handy comparative analogy: old movies are to the old architecture as new movies are to the new building designs. The new buildings are more efficient and have some bells and whistles missing not seen in the old magnificent edifices. But they had so much charm. As did the old flicks.

- Some of them -- basically the classics - Gone With The Wind , for example
- It seems to me that the older movies have more substance to them. Since they didn't have all the high tech and special effects that new movies have they had to rely on plot to make a movie good. So they had better and fuller plots. Just my opinion
