Also (going ever so slightly off topic) but has anyone seen any of the really really early stuff from the 1890s-1900s? I'm talking about some of the Thomas Edison films.

This one is about 30 seconds like and it's pretty shocking - I can only imagine what a shock this must've been when shown in 1895 a time when film itself was pretty disturbing for some (capturing a moving image with the imfamous story of the Lumeire' brothers films off a train pulling up to the station and people fleeing for their lives because they thought the train would come out of the screen and hit them! )

The Execution Of Mary, Queen Of Scotts (1985):



Uncle Josh In A Spooky Hotel (1900):


The Mystic Swing (1900):



Frankenstien (1910):
