>tried to watch 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY >got 20 straight

its art garbage trash.

The absolute STATE of /tv/

Dude.. it's like they considered modern humanity to be just a more recent phase of some primitive ape-like sentient creature.

Fucking atheists.

>>87516336
this is literally (you)

>no dialogue until the 25 minute mark
Jesus.

Gotta say, it gets a little bit more interesting past the 40 minute mark.

The 75 minute mark... pure kino.

Jesus christ, can summer be over yet?

>>87516336
I'd sincerely watch an entire movie just about prehistoric apes if it was directed by Kubrick.

>>87516336

Literally my experience with this movie. Stopped watching at 20min.

>>87519033
hehe bravo spot on anon hehe, we're all just pretending to like it, the director and the whole cast and crew made it as a prank and it being called the best film ever across the globe is all just a prank hehe got em good bravo anon yes, you sure aren't using the "pretentious" point as a defense mechanism because you weren't able to make anything of the film with your surface-level plot driven puny little brain so you shout "le reddit pretentious drivel" as a way of denying the fact that you didn't know how to process the experience

>>87519166
Upvoted!

>>87519166
this. if a bunch of important people call something good it becomes a literally irrefutable fact

>got 20 straight minutes of monkeys fucking about
You have to get into the mentality of the Jew to really understand this scene. (((Kubrick))) thought this shit was art, that is why most modern art is trash and bought/made by Jews.
What this 20 min scene is supposed to represent is some semi-marxist BS. According to them, what makes us humans different from other animals is the ability to create tools while ignoring all of the other abilities. This is a quite neurotic and semitic ideal, so reject semitism and embrace hellenism

>>87519064
smashmouths response to this is hilarious

What a great board this is

>>87519539
Man anon, thanks for that rabbi mindset.

>>87516483
And that's a bad thing because...?

2001 A Space Odyssey is a great pleb filter, and OP failed.

To be fair, the film is notorious for its bad pacing, no?

>>87520450
No. It has good pacing. Just slower relative to modern 'xplod-fests.

>>87516336
I marathoned it at x1.3 speed during a week

>>87516336
Pleb filter.

I read that in Karl Pilkington's voice and now I desperately want the next Ricky, Steve and Karl series to be about Karl watching a bunch of high end artistic films like Andrei Rublev, Man With a Movie Camera and Melancholia.

The lengths of the major sections of the film are in phi ratio to one another.

I remember Scorsese telling a funny story about 2001 and how critics reacted to it. Imagine these sweaty ass dorky critics, piling up to see this film, their 5th movie they watched that day. So they get in, and first they sit in fucking darkness for 2 minutes, thinking "Is there something wrong with the projector?". Then they see that amazing Earth in space shot and they start rolling their eyes because literally just a few months ago of the same year, 1968, John Sturges released Ice Station Zebra which opens the same way. So they're really pissed off now. And what do they see next? Fucking apes. Apes. The same year Planet of the Apes came out Kubrick serves them up 25 minutes of apes. So it grinded a lot of gears back then

Ok, I admit, HAL's pretty cool. Too bad that it takes an hour to fucking get to him.

>>87521871
No fucking way.

When I first watched it I kind of wanted a whole movie about those apes. It was getting good when he learned how to bonk. Wanted to see them defend themselves from wildcats.

>>87519559
I too would like to see that

>>87519559
So post it you waste of oxygen.
