“If Kubrick didn’t make it, he probably didn’t think it was any good.”

You nailed it. That has been sitting there since the 50s. There is a reason for that. Not a doubt.

Stanley Kubrick made some excellent films and my favorite is “The Killing” (1956) about a race track robbery starring Sterling Hayden and just about every scary mug in Hollywood at the time.

Eyes wide shut was not some porn flick. It was basically about the perverts in power, running the world. It was more or less Pizzagate, Podesta, Epstein and lolita express, Hillary, Bohemian grove, etc.

Yes, it was about secret societies and their strange rituals.

Eyes Wide Shut didn't make sense to me until all the stuff about spirt cooking dinners and the weird stuff about the Podesta brothers starting coming out. Now I understand what the movie was about.

Well then, he managed to make those subjects boring as well. Posts about them on Reddit were far more interesting than that film.

Exposing perverts is not well supported in the 5th column.

Say wha?? Are you saying that since I found Eyes Wide Shut to be a boring, lousy film that I am a Fifth Columnist somehow running interference for the Pizzagate pervos?

Well, I was wondering out loud anyway.

Obviously the theme didn’t grip you.

[Jagdgewehr]

Yep. Very predictable.

Barry Lyndon is a masterpiece. EWS looks better with every passing year.

[corkoman]

Agree that Barry Lyndon was a masterpiece.

I have an altar in my basement to Stanley Kubrick. Not really, but pretty close.

[fhayek]

Having seen most of Kubrick's films, I was reluctant to watch Barry Lyndon. I dunno, I just didn't think I would like it. I should have known better. It may have been his greatest film.

And we had to wait 60 years for it.

Lifelong scientific/fantastic fiction nerd - book and film.

I saw 2001 in a spectacular Century Dome theater when it was first released. I thought even then as a boy that it was a gussied-up mash note to Evolution.

Kind of like a backcover blurb of a Carl Sagan book stretched out to two hours.

[Big Red Badger]

Clockwork Orange was a
Great Drive-in movie.

“Singin in the Rain!”

[gymbeau]

I agree. I thought it was anti-stupidity-and-assholery.
