What is the oldest thing you still enjoy?

I like movies from all decades. I like music from all decades. I television from all decades. I like video games from all decades.

I've always enjoyed Greek mythology.

It's like reading very classy comic books.
 
hahah at 1st i was going to say "Me"
these young latte sipping beanie wearing hipsters get on my last nerve :cwink:Hahahah!
but then i thought i would say
like everybody else movies, cartoons, books and RECORDS! they were these shiny black vinyl disc shaped object that got scratched if you didn't treat em right!( hmm that could be seen as a analogy to people)

i dont think just cause something has "matured "it loses it intrinsic value of being enjoyed...just as something new and fresh doesn't always not know what its talking about!( even if it wears beanies and drink lattes!) hahaha:cwink:

Age is irrelevant...but not if shes underage!thats a no no! ( hahaha)

Books and History are probably what I enjoy the most in terms of oldest entertainment and so that's why I just said however old,As for Mark of Zorro..I love it cause of Zorro but not too much into silent films anymore,However I did forget to mention old serial films as I definitely still enjoy those

I've been waiting for someone to post......

"Your Mother"

Beaten again!!!

Some old animes, like Samurai X or Saint Seiya.

Metropolis, the cabinet of Dr. Calgary, Casablanca, Apocalypse Now.
 
Standing on a rooftop and watching fireworks in play
 
2 things that come to mind are I still watch Night Court, listen to V-Ice To The Extreme, & MC Hammer.
 
Movies in particular, but I guess the oldest thing I can recall watching off the top of my head is my complete collection of the Twilight Zone.

I enjoy talking to C.Lee quite a bit :oldrazz:
