    On the plus side, this human sacrifice means that our apple crop will prosper. Now join me in a rousing rendition of "Sumer is icumen in."

    In other words "I saw a documentary" is not going to fly if you are trying to mansplain the definition of "silent movie" to me.

    Here's a handy flowchart. (Sorry, I don't know who the OP is but hats off.)

    Dude reset the score to zero two days in a row. I haven't blocked him yet because his foolishness is a mild distraction while my beans boil.

    Dude wants to mansplain silent film sound, doesn't realize silent films were released with synchronized scores and sound effects.

    Just... Stop doing the thing that got you in trouble in the first place.

    Pro tip: When you mansplain to a woman and then she calls you out on it, please do not try to list women you admire or some junk like that. Sheesh.

    I am inordinately excited because refried beans are usually salty and therefore off limits to me.

    Boiling my beans in preparation for refrying them!

    WWI veterans proved to be the perfect Trojan horse and Jackson managed to do what Ted Turner never accomplished. Congrats, rubes. I need a drink.

    "Oh no, you're overreacting!" Mm-hmm. I'm going to do a victory lap and mock the people who doubted me but now I have to deal with all these gunked up silent movies. Thanks, Peter Jackson. Thanks a lot.

    When you change basic elements of older films to match our modern films (colorization, widescreen, 60pfs, added dialogue) then what you are saying is that older entertainment is inferior. This is what I kept trying to tell y'all when that stupid WWI documentary was circulating.

    Some fool is cropping the tops and bottoms off silent movie frames to make them widescreen this fine February morning? Ugh, can we NOT???

    "...anything that removes part of the image (the top and bottom) & adds entirely imagined elements (the sound and colour) is not restoration in my book. It's showmanship"— writing , if you can stand calm sense this early in the am

    Douglas MacLean’s multiple cameos in the 1920 film about the Thomas Ince Studios also served as product placement.

    In fact, the language of silent comedy hid itself in animated shorts and survives intact as a result.

    "Silent movie" isn't the best description but I didn't make the rules and changing the name would be an uphill battle when being a silent film fan means nothing but uphill battles. In any case, yes, Shaun the Sheep, Pink Panther and most Coyote vs. Roadrunner cartoons are silent

    The one thing a silent movie cannot have is decipherable spoken dialogue. It must tell its story through visual means but it can use a great many sound elements to get its point across. So, to repeat the cliche, silent movies were never really silent.
