The Time Machine (1960)

Corrected entry: The Eloi speak perfect English. One would think that after so many thousands of years had passed, gradually over time the Eloi's English would have degenerated somewhat. At the very least, new slang words would have been adopted reflecting their circumstances.

Correction: In the book the Eloi speak an obscure tonal language - not english. It is the choice of the director to use an unaltered English in order to make the movie easier to watch and understand. This cannot be considered a plot hole.
