I liked it...it wasn't as existential as BR 2049. It's was a lot more approachable for the masses. The direction of BR smoked it....not even in the same class of film. I wasn't crazy about the last 15 minutes of 2049...it could have ended 100 different ways and didn't really like the water scene. It seemed forced a bit and reminded me I was watching a movie. The suspension of disbelief faded...

Seems like the internet generation has lost touch with things that arent spelled out for them...and left to interpretation. They need to be told...and prodded.

I would imagine they hate the ending of Kubrick's 2001 too...just not fast enough. (FTR the ending of that movie is brilliant...IMO. No ****s were given if the audience understood what it meant.)

Not likely they make it through the first 30 minutes of 2001 before walking out and complaining that it's too slow.

The most ****ed up...and sinister thing about 2001? It was rated "G"....Kubrick was THE quintessential "bad ass". Stealth as ****....no matter what he made, there was biting discord at the root.

This was an impressive film when it came out. I have no idea why so many still rate it so highly. It usually makes it in the top half of 100 best film lists.

I'm in the target audience for artsy slow films. I thought the slow parts of BR 2049 were some of the better parts.

2001 has a lot of special effects that were special back in 1968. Now, not so much.

Outside of a lot of slow scenes of not so special, special effects, there isn't a lot to this film. I guess you could argue a couple of memorable scenes with Hal, but really.

I liked the book as a kid. No idea what I would think of it now.

I found 2001 to be extremely boring.

Loved it. Saw it with very low expectations but was very happily surprised.

Have you seen Her...directed by Spike Jonze? I felt the concept of Ex-Mechina borrowed a bit from it.

Director of Ex-Mechina has a new film coming out...looks promising.

Grabbed this book the other day about the art of BR2049 and what went into making it. It is a really interesting dive into the look and feel of the movie. Huge book.

BlackOp your last post is breaking the thread. There is something wrong with the code you copied and pasted. I had to put you on ignore temporarily to post this.
