I think it'll be similar to books. Some of the classics will be relegated to academics and die-hard movie nerds. Some people still read Moby Dick (for example), but it's definitely not a must-read for those newly into reading. I think movies will be similar. Film studies students might watch Citizen Kane, but the general public won't. (That's already the case, now that I think about it, but I'm sure a similar fate will happen to some of the more recent classics...)

Future generations will continue to watch Die Hard at Christmas time, though. That's set in stone. ;)
