It kinda makes you feel bad on account of silent actors having to deal with the new developments in technology and not being able to catch up quite as fast at times. It's not like silent movies were bad at all, but I can see where they'd struggle to appeal to the changes of public taste. That said this one scene alone is far funnier than 95% of "comedies" today.

"Hey, Lina, whatcha hit him with, a blackjack?" My favorite line. Funny, I always thought he said "flapjack."

I rarely like musicals but this one is exceptionally good! The whole industry from silent films to ‘talkies’ helped launch careers or end them. If a big strong looking male character has a high pitched voice, it really did make a huge difference. Also if a female character has a very irritatingly squeaky voice, not good. 😂

,," what's that? A thunderstorm outside?" Hilarious.

I think most people miss the gag at 1:23, when Lina says "I cahn't steeand him!" We earlier saw Lina with her diction coach, Phoebe Dinsmore, who attempted to teach her to say "And I cahn't stahnd him", while Lina could only squeak out, "I ceean't steeand 'im". So now we see, in the final version, she got one word right but not the other one.

But Singing in the Rain and Dr. Strangelove were totally different. The entire class loved Singing in the Rain. All of the jokes hit, people were cracking up, the hardcore film students were geeking out and grinning ear to ear during the scenes where the silent film crews are transitioning to their first film with sound, and a few people even clapped after some of the big dance numbers.

This is my Favorite Funniest Parts from Singin in the Rain.

Actually the first sound pictures had these problems. The microphone picked up every sound near it and the actors had to remember to talk directly toward the recording equipment. Jewelry clanged and shoes squeaked as did any tight fitting clothes. But any words spoken more steps from the microphone were barely heard at all.

The best part were the added comments. “What’s that, thunder?” “Do someone get paid to write this?!” “WHACK WHACK WHACK”

This scene along with the actual filming of Dueling Cavalier in the movie had to be one of the most fun scenes a movie crew could ever possibly be in charge of shooting... The direction must have gone something like this "Okay guys, you know all of the worst mistakes you can make while filming a movie that would get you instantly fired under normal circumstances? You are going to do them on purpose, and do them to the Nth degree so that all of the people watching this who aren't familiar with movie production can still understand the "mistakes" the in-film crew and actors made. Alright cameraman, follow the two actors back and forth awkwardly, with no sense of rhythm and wiping your ass with the Rule Of Thirds. Sound guy? Pitch the male voices up way too high, and lower the pitch of the female voices, create glaringly obvious changes to the dialogue levels, and eventually slow it down to the point where it knocks the audio out of sync with the pictures. Producer? Walk into the set and accidentally grab a wire that's attached directly to an actress after misunderstanding its purpose. Director? Just keep doing what you're doing, bonus points if you can get frustrated enough to almost be in tears!"
