This one is just pretentious crap

Usual Suspects
American Beauty
Lost In Translation

>>86166578
The movie blows its wad too early at the beginning and loses you after the first 20 minutes.

fight club

>>86166736
Shut up you idiot. It's fine if you don't like the docking scenes, but it's still a great movie and I don't think it's really pretentious at all.

>>86166720
literally what plebs know about this movie?

that image is a troll, right? There were films that Kubrik took inspiration (or stole) from, but that isn't one.

Shawshank Redemption
The Matrix
The Goonies

Kubrick ripped off anyone he could.

Pleb

>>86167966
Usual Suspects is firmly plebs only. American Beauty too

>>86168139
Looks like he just de-shitted shots that were potential Kino and then strung them together into something coherent

>literal 20 minute docking sequence.

2001 is the film form of modern art. It's pretentious bull but people lap it up and claim it's great. Even staying with Kubrick, Dr Strangelove actually had a story and was 1000% better.

2001 is just the Avatar of decades passed.

>>86168178
but Lost in Translation isn't? Damn, that's the only of the three I don't like. Imust be some kind of turbo-pleb.

>2001 is just the Avatar of decades passed.
I don't know if I've ever really physically cringed at something until I read this. I might even agree that Dr. Strangelove is better, but damn, you never go full retard, man.

The problem with fight club is that it's fanbase is made up of edgy 14 year olds who think the movie is promoting anarchism and anti-capitalism.

The movie is about the excesses of conformity and non-conformity. You aren't supposed to agree with Tyler (or Jack for that matter). They represent the extremes of consumerism and anti-consumerism. Sure Jack's condo life is empty and meaningless, but Tyler is basically a glorified homeless person.

The world's that both of them inhabit demand a certain degree of conformism. With Tyler, it comes in the form of the rules of fight club and project mayhem. These groups are supposed to be nonconformist by nature and yet their members follow Tyler's every word as gospel.

That simple fact flies over the heads over 90% of the people that watch that movie. They just want to be edgy rebels like Brad Pitt. It really ruins the movie in a way, because they didn't do enough to make Tyler's lifestyle undesirable.

de-shitted hahaha nice one, Anon.

>>86166720
this movie is good but it definetely doesnt transcend pleb/patrician like 2001 does

>>86168309

By that I mean the only good thing is the visuals and it looks dated as hell now.

Kubricks best film is Paths of glory

Meaning patricians and plebs can hate it, the latter because it's boring as fuck for them, and the former because it's an incoherent mess? Yes, I agree.

You say that, but the 70mm screening I just saw in London had people crunching crisp packets and whispering to each other during the quiet parts.

Fuck everyone
