Celebrate the 120th Anniversary of the First Showing of a Commercial Film

On Friday January 9, 2015 the American Film Institute (AFI) played a montage of 120 years of cinema history as part of their award ceremony. According to Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auguste_and_Louis_Lumi%C3%A8re#First_film_screenings)

The Lumière brothers, Auguste Marie Louis Nicolas and Louis Jean were the first filmmakers in history.

The Lumières held their first private screening of projected motion pictures in 1895. Their first public screening of films at which admission was charged was held on December 28, 1895, at Salon Indien du Grand Café in Paris. This history-making presentation featured ten short films, including their first film, Sortie des Usines Lumière à Lyon (Workers Leaving the Lumière Factory). Each film is 17 meters long, which, when hand cranked through a projector, runs approximately 50 seconds.

As the most popular and authoritative source for movie, TV and celebrity content, IMDb should lead the celebration of the 120th anniversary of commercial showing of a film. This could include special features such as spotlights on early films and polls related to film history.
