Anyone Else Use the Internet Archive to Find Old Movies to Watch?
Other
I like many older cheesy movies or often unpopular movies that have got forgotten in time, and I often end up at the Internet Archive looking for an old movie to download and watch. Anyone else do this?
archive.org/details/moviesandfilms
Lots of stuff there, some a bit iffy, lots of classic scifi movies, films that are now out of copyright etc. Early b/w and silent movies. A quick rummage through normally finds something interesting to watch. Some classic Japanese movies there like Zatoichi movies although perhaps 'classic' is a bit too much but still an interesting bit of Japanese cinema. It can make an interesting distraction from modern movies which often omit a proper story. I've downloaded Grapes of Wrath to watch, not seen it for years.
A lot of colourised movies there as well which are fairly recent using AI colouring software. Results can be pretty good although it does feel wrong for some movies though where the b/w image added to the atmosphere of the movie.
Obviously everything is free and you can do whatever you want with the files and place them on phones, tablets etc when bored and out and about etc.
