Why does /tv/ hate A Clockwork Orange? It's always listed as the worst Kubrick film here.
>>
/tv/, and 4chan more broadly, hates anything that could potentially be deemed as "edgy" because of how painfully aware they are of their own immaturity and have a constant drive to mask it wherever possible.
>>
worst kubrick still means 10/10

At least it's better than the book.

Watered down shit compared to the book . Overrated as fuck

its a stupid movie based on an even dumber book
>>
>>81856988
It was probably everyone's gateway auteur film, and everyone's ashamed to admit it because "having things in common with everyone makes you a pleb".
>>
>>81856988
It sucked the one and only time I saw it
>>
>>81857058
kubrick only directed that one. it's a kirk douglas driven project.
kubrick was brought in after filming had actually started cos the first choice director was fired by douglas.
try learning about films pls m8.

Why is that wine so brightly colored wtf
>>
>>81857424

2001 isn't garbage but better pacing would help
>>
The Shining is Kubrick's worst.
>>
The best Kubrick i've seen is Dr Strangelove.
I haven't seen Eyes Wide Shut and Barry Lindon but everything else was alright (Full Metal Jacket, Shining) or bad (2001, A Clockwork Orange, etc ...)
>>
>>81857488
Because it took 80 takes to film that scene.
>>
>>81857825
You will like them both.
What did you think of Path of Glory?

Malcolm McDowell was the perfect choice for alex and it overall remained pretty true to the book. It still makes me feel strange every time I watch it, the scene where alex jumps out the window because of beloved Ludwig Van is genuinely freaky and the whole movie is definitely an experience.

Not everything has to be (((kino))) to be enjoyed you fucking plebs
>>
>>81857670
Better pacing, and I don't know what else.
There's so many unnecessary scenes and scenes that go on for too long, but even with cuts, I don't think I would've liked it.
It's a somewhat interesting story executed in a boring pretentious way.

>>
>>81857923

I feel sorry for Malcolm, he should be up there with Al Pacino or De Niro, he's fucking perfect in everything and was in numerous kinos, but then his roles got shittier and shittier

fucking Caligula shouldn't have to be in Home Alone 5 and every other shitty B and C movie
>>
>>81857848
For what purpose
>>
>>81857932

I also didn't like it at first, but then I was discussing it with my friend, rewatched it together and I found it pretty good, albeit bit too long sometimes

howewer try 2010, it's sequel to 2001 and much more classic sci fi, I think you'd like it

not from Kubrick though

He killed Captain Kirk with a bridge.

I've been told to watch 2010 before, I'll get to it when I can.
And maybe I should rewatch 2001 too, if I didn't delete it.

Sorry, as a Kubrick fan, the worst Kubrick is Eyes Wide Shut. In addition to its exploring stunted adolescent sexuality, which most men grow out of at 17, it also was final proof that Kubrick was addicted to masturbation.

A Clockwork Orange was marvelous. Not Kubrick's best, but a great film all the same.
>>
>>81856988
Who drinks milk with heroin in it? That probably tastes awful.
>>
>>81858406

heroin wouldn't make you rape and beat people, it was probably mescaline or something like that
>>
its his worst but no kubrick film is bad. his works range from 8/10 to 10/10
>>
>>81857068
That's ridiculous.
>>
>>81856988
Because it's an abhorrent and boring movie.

Because the underage brainlet plebs have only seen it on a small screen where it is actually the most purely cinematic of his films, I've never seen a bigger difference in a film being shown in a theatre.

fite me irl.
EWS is a masterpiece and works on so many levels. It exploring the primal sexual instinct or how you call it "stunted adolescent sexuality" is a monolith for depicting human confusion regarding monogamy vs. sexual urges.
What I love especially is that the whole movie is a parable for the romanticized view of the sexual act itself, denying Tom Cruise and therefore the viewer the climax of every scene until the very end, where it still denies us the carnal pleasure.
>>
It's better than Full Metal Jacket, Lolita, and Spartacus.
>>
>>81861353
I'm still not 100% sure which I think is his best but this is definitely up there with the contenders.

Aside from the ludovico technique just being a political scam Alex goes along with for his freedom, which is massively different from the book.

It completely undercuts the themes of the source material. I'd say that's enough to say it widely differs.
