I always have, and probably always will prefer the old classics, like Wizard of Oz, Public Enemy, Frankenstein, Zulu (can be considered old 1964) etc. There’s only a handfull of movies I even like in the 2000s, and half of them are Pixar
What you’re view 
Well, I’m mixed on this. I like contemporary cartoons, and by contemporary, I mean 1980-now. But I prefer old live action films, like Lawrence of Arabia, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Sound of Music, and I have to agree with you on Zulu. I love Michael Caine!! The Best Disney movies were 1990-2002, but ALL Pixar is great
Well, a bit of both, really. I feel like I really ought to have watched more of the classics, though. But there are some great modern films, too. For me, it’s not the age of the film but rather how good the storyline is, how interesting the characters are, etc., that matters, even though special effects have improved so much over the years.
While I do love watching modern movies also, there’s something about classics that just grab me in. Even though my main reason for watching classics is because of Paul Newman, I seem to have the movies he starred in pre-1980 ranked higher on my list (though as my number of movies seen increases, it’s harder for me to rank them!). So I’d say I’m more of a classic movie lover. Now, just to start watching classics not starring Paul. XD
Classics to me are anything from the 80s and 90s. I’m afraid I haven’t watched anything before that (the only ones I can recall is the original ‘Taking of Pelham 123’ and ‘Blazing Saddles’).
I have a sweet spot for older movies cos’ most people my age (or at least, the ones I know) don’t have the patience or tolerance to sit through anything that has pre-2000 special effects or pacing. It’s almost as if seeing something in muted Technicolour ‘degrades’ the quality of the storytelling as well. My brother refuses to watch anything that ‘looks’ old, even if it’s a cinematic milestone. It’s the ‘datedness’ of all that attracts me to the older films, to see how far we’ve come in terms of technology and political correctness.
But I happen to watch more contemporary movies because they’re more accessible and give me more conversation mileage than say, watching something from twenty years ago which few people not from that generation would’ve seen. It’s sad, but time moves on.
I really enjoy watching classics, but also love modern films.
The age of a film really doesn’t bother me, classics are classics for a reason.
Personally, I like watching modern films more.
Oh holy Jesus!! I just realized Sid is not in your signature!!! 
Anyway, some old movies are truly amazing. I went through a 3-month phase where I only watched black+white movies (weird) and they’re worth it. One of the best movies ever has to be Lawrence of Arabia, if you have my attention span. However, if you want a more “colorful” classic, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang came out in 1968, and remains one of the most visually stunning live action movies Iv’e ever seen. I love older movies… I still don’t get why people call them boring. I don’t guess this would be classified as “old”, but Flash Gordon is amazing as well. 
Whatever is good.
Because people (presumably teenagers) these days have very short attention spans and expect explosions and chases every 2 minutes, and about 10 minutes of dialogue through a 2 hour movie, but that’s just my take on it

Haha I like that. I am a teenager, but I really despise people overlooking great filmography in exchange for cheap jokes and cool graphics. I agree, none of my friends will dare sit through an “old” movie. I know one time, I made a reference to the greatness of Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and all my friends thought I was trying to confuse them…most people don’t even warch 80’s movies anymore. Noone watches Star Wars or Indiana Jones!! I really wish I was born in an earlier decade than the 90’s… best era for Disney, as well as idiocy and ignorance.

IncredigirlVirginia’s post reminds me… if you haven’t seen Hello Dolly, you ain’t a true Wall-E fan till ya do! 
Honestly, it ain’t too bad. Some very amazing dance sequences. And yes, the ‘POYSC’ number will have you smiling and humming the tune long afterwards. It’s that catchy!
I enjoy watching both.
They should be re-runned as a double feature! 
I enjoy both
I can appreciate both.
Depends on the genre. Or if it’s animation. I love almost all classic animation.
“Classic cinema” is not necessarily old movies.
And the first examples of “modern cinema” are traced back to the sixties.
The one thing that makes a movie "classic " is that it follows the classic rules of cinematography. Most movies today are still classic.
Modern cinema, in the contrary, doesn’t follow these rules, and tend to be avant-garde and experimental films (take for instance old movies like Last Year at Marienbad an La Jetée).
With that in mind, I’ll say I prefer classic cinema (regardless if it’s old or new).
