Hudson, Don't be pissed 'cause KUBRICKS all up on you. Be pissed because your favorite directors are Robert Rodriguez and that Kid.

2001 made me want to shoot myself in the head. What a waste of time it was watching that. Great imagery, but geez, 2 + hours? Lord!...

firstly, Lord is right. Secondly, I'm fairly certain you wanted to shoot yourself in the eye before seeing 2001. Thirdly, you're a Bronze Member. Respect the Gold.

If you don't have patience, just play it in x2.
If it's still too long for you, play it in x4.
If it's still too long... well, watch MTV and shut the **** up.
But if you're a real cinema lover, play it frame by frame. Each of them contains a diamond.
One of the best cinema lessons ever.

Rodriguez is crap! The kid's alright making music videos and color correcting; I'll make my decision on him when he Directs a feature.
Kubrick is all up on me. On my.......

I wasn't expecting this to turn into a race war thats for sure. You should be proud of your joke BL. Classy. Anyways, I'm claimin 2001 hard like a mutha'. Kubrick's fully all up on me. It's like, no matter how hard you deny it, Kubrick is all up on all of us. Step up and accept it.

Eyes Wide Shut sucked, and ended on one of the biggest sellouts I've *ever* seen in cinema.
Clockwork Orange pretty much rocks the world, and I really, really dislike violence.

I'd like to retract that. No point in getting juvenile. My only point is that 2001 wore me out after a while. Like I said, the imagery was great, but story is important to me, too
I don't think Kubrick is (was) some flawless film god, but I'm not saying I think all his films suck either. Full Metal Jacket is my favorite Vietnam film, maybe favorite war film period.
But no director is 100% for everybody on every film. Everyone has their own thing they look for and get out of a film. We should all be entitled to this and allow others their critiques.

Re: Are you seriously claimin' right now? Kubrick
Okay, I have no idea what any of you are saying...
... but if you want to understand 2001: A Space Odyssey, there's really no way other than to read the book. Clarke and Kubrick wrote the book and the screenplay simultaneously, in a rather unique experiment. Much of the screenplay reads word-for-word the same as the novel. But in the novel, it's all EXPLAINED. Seeing the movie, without reading the novel, will make it nearly impossible to understand.

What? There's no "race war" here. Please, don't blow things out of proportion in that respect.
I'm sorry if I offended you, "CheckYourself;" that wasn't my driving Purpose.
And, Kubrick IS overrated. He is an accomplished director, no doubt, but he's not a genius.

Sounds like "Dune."
But yes, Barry; you're right . . . even if they did go to Saturn in the book (yes, I know why it was changed to Jupiter in the movie).
