I like to think I can enjoy most older movies, but I still like to actually see things happen. Those parts of the movie, as well as the scene where he looks into the obelisk, were tough.

But why? Whatever point it's trying to make has been hammered home after a minute. The only reason to keep the rest in is if it's entertaining, but it's not.

Well for one, it looks absolutely amazing, and no, the point really isn't hammered home after a minute. You wouldn't get a sense of the insanity-inducing experience or the length of that experience from a one minute sequence.
>The only reason to keep the rest in is if it's entertaining, but it's not.
Entertainment isn't necessarily the primary goal of a movie

>>87797088
>it looks absolutely amazing
How so? I mean, it's a neat visual effect, but how good can random sequences of neon lights flashing at you be?

>You wouldn't get a sense of the insanity-inducing experience
Yes you would, because the effects of the monolith have been established multiple times throughout the film. Tacking on an extra 9 minutes (the full scene is nearly 10 minutes in length) doesn't add anything.

If it's not trying to entertain and it's not trying to make a point, then it's practically a music video.

Does anyone have the gif of the Spore creature sniffing it's own farts?

>>87797200
>because the effects of the monolith have been established multiple times throughout the film
They really haven't. Bowman's experience is the first time in the movie we actually get to see an encounter with the monolith as they see it. This is the what the film has been building to for two house. A single minute sequence wouldn't do it justice. The Dawn of Man and Moon sequences only show these encounters from an outside perspective. Not to mention the fact that the encounter with the monolith on the Moon is fundamentally different to Dave's.
>If it's not trying to entertain and it's not trying to make a point, then it's practically a music video.
Right, because every portrayal of a psychological experience in film is basically a music video. Is this really how you think? What logic brings you to that conclusion?

>>87797320
Explain why you think anything I've said is pretentious

>>87797376
>The Dawn of Man and Moon sequences
In addition to Hal-9000 gaining psychopathic sentience. Sure, you can specify that it shows a different perspective. It's not like I'm saying the scene should have been cut entirely. More that there's nothing really gained from how long and drawn out it is. There's no development, plot or character wise, and the atmosphere or emotions you derive would be the same if it was a fraction of the length. If anything, it potentially breaks immersion with the viewer.

>because every portrayal of a psychological experience
The parts where his face distorts and what obviously follows after the color montage do more to emphasize the psychological experience than 10 minutes of flashing lights.

I have watched it, more than once. The monolith dramatically influences anyone who comes into contact with it. Is Hal changing as travel toward it just a coincidence?

No it isn't

it's like a TOS episode, so nope

you just need to watch the movies after the motion picture in order and watch the original khan episode before watching wrath of khan obviously.

>>87799074
No. It will actually take away from it when you see the episodes it's similar to.

The point is not hammered home after a minute. 2001 is slow because Kubrick wanted to make the audience get used to the environment, before putting us in a new jarring environment. We spend like 10 minutes watching apes at the beginning, perhaps a bit more than enough time to drive the "point" of that scene home. Then, once we get comfortable with the apes we instantly jump millions of years forward into a spacefaring future. Later, this same technique is used again at the end of the stargate sequence that you believe went on too long. After spending so much time in what appears to be another reality, when Dave actually comes back to "real life" in the room, it's jarring for both him and us as the viewers. We took that journey with him. When that close-up of his eye actually turned to its normal color for the first time I got this feeling that I can't really explain, and that's how I know Kubrick had timed that out perfectly.

Ah, no, thought that would be sweet. He certainly is on that sweet spot of "talented but not a listed actor who would fit in very well".

Valhalla Rising was pretty decent for a film that moves at a snail pace.

Probably Zodiac. It just keeps going and going, but every scene is so gripping, memorable and interesting that it never really gets old to me.

That or The Big Sleep, if that counts. I guess it's not really that slow. But it definitely takes its time.
