"movie"
It just occured to me that if silent motion pictures were originally called movies as they 'moved' and when recorded sound was added they were called 'takies', how and why did the popular term go back...

My guess would be that talkies ceased its useful life when the silents eventually stopped production. There was then no need for a differentiating term and all films became movies again.

..."movie" is more in like with "cinema" < "cinematography" ~ "recording of movement"
