Did not. I just chose to ignore your point because it lacks merit. (I don't see that old movies gained anything from being in black and white. If you really want that "film noire" effect, you can always turn the brightness level of your TV down. Me, I just won't be watching.)
Similarly, mono always makes me scowl. Vinyl I like - but three dimensional movement of the stylus in a record's grooves can be harnessed to produce two separate channels by placing magnetic coils at a 90 degree angle to each other and I enjoy that benefit.
Totally disagree. Today color and action has almost become filler content for lack of anything real to say. With black and white it was much more about the plot, and instead of color you had a story with moods and textures.
Today's music is similar. Up the compression and toss in a handful of samples and produce a bunch of noise to throw up through boom boxes and crappy car stereos. But kids nowadays often aren't exposed to real music.
