Thanks, Supernumerary 19:20, 20 January 2007 (UTC) The first movie theater in the world built only to show movies is the Vitascope Theatre (listed under Edisonia Hall because someone removed the direct reference. Opened in October 1896 it was designed only to show movies. The 1905 Pittsburgh Nickelodeon doesn't even come close! This needs to be fixed. |
Additions to Sound
editHey fellow Wikipedians! :D
I have added some significant content to the "Sound" sub-section with applicable sources. For the most part, it was missing citations, but not anymore. Please, take a review and let's discuss how we can make changes to better the quality of the information.
Looking forward to what you have to contribute. DiamondPuma (talk) 21:19, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
- The only minor comment I have is that there is now a sentence fragment in the middle of the "Sound" section, starting with "American film studios, while Europe standardized on...". This was probably meant to tie in to the mention of US studios adopting Vitaphone and Westrex systems in the previous paragraph, but didn't quite get connected up. Thanks! 69.247.222.163 (talk) 03:33, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. —*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 06:48, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
Films
editA Film --- also called a movie, motion picture, moving picture, picture, photography or (slang) flick ---is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, feelings, beauty, or atmosphere through the use of moving images. These images are generally accompanied by sound and, more rarely, other sensory stimulations. Sandeep kaur028 (talk) 19:58, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
