Roundhay Garden Scene (1888)
Proposed replacement
Reason
Roundhay Garden Scene is often known as the oldest surviving film. The currently featured version is very low resolution and has compression artifacts so prominent that the people's features get distorted. It's been superseded by an HD version from a documentary about the creator. The new version is losslessly encoded to preserve as much detail as possible in each of the 20 images.
