I don't care for his films

A Clockwork Orange was good

I don't either. Babby's first movie director.

then don't start a thread about it

The boomer Robert Eggers

Eggers would probably consider this post an honor

its amazing how much better apocalypse now is than FMJ, there's no better comparison of a hack to a true legend

You will.

different films with different intentions.
Compare FMJ with The Boys From Company C (1978) if you want to make that point, the movies are very similar.

He would. Ironically, and perhaps accidentally, he's already made a movie surpassing Kubrick, which is The Northman.
Doubt it.

I really only like his 50s and 60s stuff.

Clockwork and full metal jacket are the only good ones.

a movie surpassing Kubrick, which is The Northman.

Far out, that's decent bait. Have a (you).

The moon landing was 6/10

I mean it. It's more intense than anything Kubrick's ever done.

I like the worldbuilding in A Clockwork Orange

While I do like his films quite a lot, I appreciate the way you stated your feelings about him/them (instead of the more typical for Anon Babble "He's fuckin retarded and so are you!") so here is a you.

Barry Lyndon is a masterpiece.
You are a homosexual.

Kubrick's films heavily appeal to homosexual though.

well so much for that

Beautifuly shot, but still feels like a soap opera.

You’re literally too dumb to get it

I'm perfectly serious. It is not by accident that the vast majority of fashion designers are homosexual men.

Ive never watched any of his movies. I dont even particularly care for movies or tv shows

*prominent fashion designers

your comment is self-evidently dumb and irrelevant

It's not if you get called a homosexual for not caring for Brick's flicks.

No.

Reminded me of a Dickens story.

i don't like petty insults like the other anon gave you, but that was a pretty weak and stupid comeback from you,and it has nothing to do with reality. of all the filmmakers specifically appealing to gays and known for their fashion, i'd say kubrick is pretty low on the list

of all the filmmakers specifically appealing to gays and known for their fashion, i'd say kubrick is pretty low on the list

And what makes you say that? Also, he actually did not insult me directly, since I'm not OP.

meds

Barry Lyndon is one of the finest films direction wise of all time, if you don't think its at least a 9/10 I wouldn't trust your taste in film

this thread is hardly worth keeping track of who is saying what.
what makes you say that kubrick appeals to gays and his movies known for their fashion? prove your assertion or whoever's and maybe i'll respond if i still have time to waste

No props for 2001 so far itt

Why? I'm not even the biggest fan and I can acknowledge it's great

Tell me more about yourself. I’m curious to know about the inner machinations of the mind of a raging faggot.

because this is a shit thread and discussion started on a dumb premise, not a meaningful and exhaustive appreciation of a filmmaker

Overreliance on very fancy visual design and lack of substance. Antagonistic father figures, the fact Kubrick was jewish and jews overrepresent among homosexuals and the reasons for it (IYKYK), similarities to the works of homosexual directors (Visconti) and, repeating myself here, the majority of Kubrick's movies being about nothing substantially rewarding (Bohemian culture, abusive father/drill instructor, a hollow struggle against AI that demands no real character growth, etc).

tl;dr: Vapid shit that looks good.

Amazing how you managed to say absolutely nothing in so many words.
Vapid post.

lack of substance, ok, if you say so, must be why his films are some the most discussed and analyzed decades after his death.

Maybe if you're an idiot.
So what are the discussions about? His movies looking pretty and him having hid symbolism?

Apocalypse fucking sucks. Platoon is so much better than either of those turds

intensity doesn't make it half as good as Kubrick's better films

Not in itself but if you add competent tragedy and cultural relevancy you get something superior to Kubrick's half-limp masturbation sessions.

tragedy

exactly what makes Barry Lyndon his greatest, much deeper than northman

go make a thread about The Northman if you really think it's more culturally relevant than Kubrick's work

I'd argue Kubrick's style is unfit for tragedy on any personal level. Eyes Wide Shut gets close to closeness but even that one cares little about its characters.

Essentially it is, since it's a depiction of the death of vainglorious paganism.

The Boys From Company C

I haven't seen that one. Thanks for posting it.

i wouldn't describe Barry Lyndon as a tragedy in the strict sense of the word, but Barry's son death scene hits hard.

again, go make a thread about it instead of exposing your ignorance and stupidity about something you claim you don't care about (or whoever else)

he's already made a movie surpassing Kubrick, which is The Northman.

embarrassing opinion if sincere

it's even got R. Lee Ermey doing the same role as in FMJ. It's like the movie has been memoryholed after FMJ for some reason.

you claim you don't care about

The phrasing OP used is care for, ESL.

Ok. Who is your favorite director?

english is indeed not my first language. well spotted, anon.

You are a disgrace (but can get better)

meant for

are you one of the joos whose job is to drive people from the chans by derailing serious respectful conversations?

joos

Are you afraid to say jews or something? And no, obviously not.

Kubrick thought very highly of him.

...the actor sometimes satisfied Kubrick after only three takes, because he was prepared. This was extremely unusual on a Kubrick production, where the director would regularly demand 40 takes...

not his problem, he just wanted a perfect take

If you're showing your baby A Clockwork Orange, you should be thrown in jail.

a hollow struggle against AI that demands no real character growth

This is only a few chapters in the book and only 30 minutes at most, which is just a smaller part of the entire film being a testament to human evolution with all its glory and horrors, and everything between. Weak argument, though I get the disdain for jewishness. They also had him killed so he couldn't spill about the moon landing or say anything more about Eyes Wide Shut.

I don't doubt it, but there is modern/revisionist lore that R.Lee Ermey broke into acting with FMJ by forcing himself into the movie with his rehearsal work with the extras. It's just weird when he played the same role (less convincingly) 8 years earlier in a major studio movie.
I don't think it would be that far-fetched to consider FMJ a remake of The Boys In Company C, even though the former has the superior craft and there's clearly differences between the two.

a baby wouldn't understand what they're looking at.

He literally said "I just want a perfect take and the actors just don't give me, otherwise I wouldn't demand +50 takes"

He's the Nolan of his generation.

Movies are technically done at a high level, but the characters are all mouthpieces that merely serve as props. It's the kind of movies that people want to namedrop as their favorites to show sophistication, but it's all surface level posturing. A quintessential bourgeoise director. Movie posters to "match the couch".

the entire film being a testament to human evolution with all its glory and horrors, and everything between

It is beautiful, don't misunderstand me, but it's also deeply impersonal and very vague.

impersonal

Dunno how you could make something celebrating humanity personal for anyone.

Christ. Or an imitation of.
