Just been linked to video, which apparently shows the synching of Echoes to the last 23 minutes of 2001: A Space Odyssey. Hell, even if it's baloney, it's an awesome song & an awesome film. |

It certainly gives another touch and feeling to the scene. |

i've done this but i couldnt be sure whether it was perfectly synch'd even after following all instructions.. it was enjoyable anyway though. That scene with the interdimensional travel blows my mind each and every time. |

Yeah, Kubrick is the best director ever to have blessed the earth: even though he's so widely known and stuff, I think he's under-rated and the depth of his films under-appreciated. |

yeah i love 2001, the shining, full metal jacket and a clockwork orange. i've seen dr. strangelove and i couldn't enjoy it as much, but it was certainly interesting. I've yet to see some of his older work like lolita. |

I've only seen that version of Lolita once. The Jeremy Irons version is really good. If you scroll down, you'll see my The Shining thread which has a link to a fascinating imDb article about The Shining.... the same user also wrote some great analyses of other Kubrick films: well worth reading. |

cheers. i'll have a look. speaking of jeremy irons, what did you think of his part in Die hard 3? |
||||||||
|

I've only seen Die Hard III, on video when it came out - I wasn't impressed by it at all, and can't remember Irons' performance in it. Generally, he's a good actor but he's been in some pretty dull films :D |

from wikipedia's entry on : "Reportedly, Stanley Kubrick asked Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters if he could use elements of the "Atom Heart Mother" suite in the soundtrack; Waters rejected the request. Later, Waters asked Kubrick if he could appropriate sounds from 2001: A Space Odyssey - a request Kubrick rejected." |
||||||||

|
|
That's true - Kubrick also denied Waters the right to use excerpts from 2001 for his album, Amused To Death, not for any personal reasons: Waters later used the excerpts in his live shows. |

Goddammit, space is the place. Rock instrumentation just doesn't work well for me in this context though, personally. Not sure why, too worldly or something. I don't really like this too much, no matter how congruent it is. |

i always think of barry lyndon being a technical brilliant movie, but still a bit dull. it's like kubrick chose an uninteresting leading role to allow his own film-making art to shine through. like he wanted to be in the spotlights himself. |
