I've read comments around the net saying how someone doesn't know about a certain thing about the past nor want to know cause they weren't born yet and I know teens who loathes anything prior to the year 2000 cause it's"Last Century"and want everything as fresh&new as possible.

I was born in 1985 but I enjoy many things in entertainment from different time periods,such as..

Movies-However old,Although I don't like silent films that much anymore
TV Shows-1940's and after
Music-However old
Literature(including comic books)-However old
Video Games-Super Nintendo in the early 1990's till now
History-However old

So what about you?

I was born in '88

I love 70's/80's comedies honestly. Bachelor Party, Animal House, Revenge of the Nerds, Weekend at Bernies, Police Academy, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Dazed and Confused, etc.

I also love Mystery Science Theater 3000

Music from the 1970's through the 90's is my favorite.
 
One thing I've never really been into is playing old games. I dont bust out the ps2 or nintendo 64 to play some old favorites. I know a lot of people who are into that, but I like to keep it fresh. lol
 
I like movies from all decades. I like music from all decades. I television from all decades. I like video games from all decades.
 
My N64 still works back home. I put in Starfox. Sadly I gave ALL of my 64 games to 2 kids I used to babysit :/ GoldenEye......Zelda....Turok 64.....Mario Kart.....all the good ones.
 
I'd say the oldest movie that I can truly count among my favorites is Wizard of Oz (1939). I also love Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), but I don't know if I'd count it among my favorites.

The oldest TV show that I am really into is The Andy Griffith Show (1960-1968).
 
There was a live action movie of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs I very very vaguely remember watching all the time with my Grandma when I was...God I must of been 5-6? It creeped me out. The movie must of been 20-30 years old at that time. (mid 90s)

Can someone verify this?

Was it a horror movie with Sigourney Weaver as the evil queen?,There was also a 1987 live-action musical film
 
Hmmm no I googled it and I don't recognize any of the photo's. I would definitely remember those creepy images! haha

Man this is going to bug me. I think my mom still has the VHS back home.
 
This came to mind.

Anyone remember this game? It is one of the very first PC games I ever got. I had it for Windows 95 or 98

Born in 95, age of films never bothered me too much, unless they're really slow and with a real bad image quality (which is common for many film from before the 60s). I really find it weird when somebody my age or an year younger says things like "The Mummy (99), but that film is so old? " and i've even heard people saying a certain film is old because it's from around 2005.

When i was around 13 i developed an interest for retro gaming.
 
The oldest "things" I enjoy are books. I still have books I read thirty years ago that I still get a kick out of reading.

Old movies

Rebecca
Imitation of Life
To Kill a Mockingbird
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
Young Frankenstein
Superman The Movie
Alien
Star Wars

Old cartoons

Robotech
Thundercats
Fleischer

Old Music

The Supremes
The Dells
Stevie Wonder
Jackson Five
Michael Jackson
 
I love Young Frankenstein, and the rest of Mel Brook's classics. I watch them frequently.

I want to buy the Mel Brooks Blu Ray collection

Movies in particular for me. Most of my favourite films came out before I was born. But the oldest would probably be Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
