Movies You Can't Walk by Without Sitting Down and Watching

the king. Only one I didn't like was eyes wide shut. Maybe I need to try it again.

Barry Lyndon also seemed a bit draggy. Again, maybe both of those movies warrant a second look. It took a couple or three viewings of 2001 A Space Odyssey to kinda get it.

That's your opinion.

Wesley Crusher....vs....Tom Hanks. Hmmm?
I like my opinion (not that Stand By Me was bad....just not as good as Green Mile)

I plain out don't like kubrick movies at all.

Almost any John Wayne movie (especially Big Jake & Quiet Man), Blazing Saddles, Animal House, Rudy, Cat Ballou, and Support Your Local Sheriff. There are others, but I ALWAYS watch the aforementioned. Yeah, I know....I have no culture or class, but I don't care!

OK, sure, it does take some patience at times to get through some Kubrick. But. surely you don't think any of that applies to Dr. Strangelove or A Clockwork Orange.

I think a clockwork orange was just hard to watch. There were a couple of good scenes and some decent ones but it was still overall nihilistic and slow paced. And that's easily one of his better ones. 2001 had some touches I liked such as the brand names on all the stuff in space but for my money give me Ridley Scott and Alien over 2001 any day and twice on sunday.
For war movies I'll take apocalypse now and platoon and saving private Ryan over full metal jacket. I didn't like of hate the shining but I was disappointed it strayed so far from the source material. Yeah I just don't love kubrick.
-
Heh.
it's all subjective. I hated the entire Aliens series.

Alien, aliens and prometheus were all good. Everything else was garbage

Has anyone said Tombstone yet? I had this phenomena hit me this weekend where I was channel surfing and Tombstone was on and I had to sit and watch for a while.
And The Big Lebowski of course.....if that had not been mentioned.
