And, as a principle, I don't think there are many movies that get dated in the areas of drama and comedy. Special effects are the only thing that get really old.

Antiquated SFX don't bother me. I can put up with a lot so long as the pacing of the story is exciting.

Acting styles do change, however. 40s movies never bother me but there was a sort of style in a lot of 80s movies that strike me as a mannered affectation and make them unwatchable for me now.
