There are heaps of amazing movies from old days which are made in black and white. Do you get annoyed to watch a movie with no colors or it doesn't bother you at all?
I love old movies! I think that black & white gives a special charm to a movie! If I get annoyed by something with old movies, it is a shaky screen because of no professional cameras. Otherwise, black & white old movies are great!

i have never seen a black and white film that was shaky.one of my all time favorite films is Casablanca and it is in clack abd white. What I hate is when a film is colorized.

i love classics... i like the sketchy effect... i love the beautiful women in those movies... i love the handsome women in those movies... i find it amusing that when they are driving, everything behind them were moving, but not the car...
well they aren't big in special effects but hey, i don't think they are big on those genres yet at those times...

I love black and white movies, not all of them though. The ones that are made well have a special charm, as you say. Since they did not rely too much on technology, the directors were so careful about the small details. I loved Zorba the Greek, which could capture your attention for each second, even though it is a black and white movie. I wonder whether anyone could make such a movie these days.

I adore old b/w's. I think they did some really amazing effects for the day. There are things they pulled off that they just haven't done in today's film. There are those that bring back that old style, but not many.
