[Frameworks] Processing Discontinued Film Stocks

[Freya]

Good news, Agfa moviechrome is E6 and so can be processed in colour in E6 still!!

The Ektachrome might be VNF which you might be able to process in E6 with a little colour shift. Of course being old, these films may both be very colour shifted anyway. If the Ektachrome isn't VNF then you will have to try and process as B&W I imagine. No idea about the REVUE, what does the box say?

Hi frameworks,
I've got a lot of moribund film stock which is building up at a somewhat welcome rate. I want to know if I can process (essentially still use) them as black and white films. Here is a list of films stocks which I have:
Kodak Kodachrome K40Kodak Ektachrome 160AGFA moviechrome A40REVUE superchrome 40
Now I have a lot of film that hasn't been used which begs the question. How should I expose the colour films in camera to be processed as black and white? I know the black and white developing process for tri-x stock. Should I deviate from this process to develop the above films stocks? 
I also have a lot of film cartridges that have already been shot by other people in different countries and I'm itching to try and develop them. These films have most likely been shot with automatic light meters so again do I need to allow for longer developing times or something?
Any help on the above would be greatly appreciated.
ThanksKevin
