a clockwork orange, followed by the shining, followed by full metal jacket. i thought EWS was great and very under-rated. good mogwai song: "stanley kubrick" from ep+2 (or ep+6) |

My favorit is "The Shinning" It's the only horror movie that is actually scary in my opinion. EWS was good to, but i didn't like the ending. |

I love The Shining... I don't believe I've seen that many Kubrick films, that and 2001, and I think that's about it... both are good, but The Shining kicks ass... I'm a huge Stephen King fan, and Jack Nicholsen was brilliant in that movie... hmmm, I still haven't read the book... |

I can't say I can place one above the other, but I love 2001, A Clockw..., EWS (yes, highly under rated), Doc Strangelove (that's kubrick, right? maybe thats my fav), Shinning. I know I'm missing something. I also loved Barry Lyndon, which was way to long and slow for most. It is to me like an ambient film. It's very mellow and just flows, with beautiful filmming. Another film I consider ambient in a similar way is Dead Man with Johnny Depp (not a kubrick film). I recommend it to everyone. |

the egyptian theatre in hollywood just finished with a 2-week run of (a beautiful 70 mm print) 2001. it was the most incredible thing i have seen on the big screen. they are also having a kubrick retrospective starting tomorrow, i think. i definately want to check that out, too. dead man is great. jim jarmusch is the man, and you can't go wrong with that cast. johnny depp, crispin glover, heh heh, billy bob, gabriel byrne. ghost dog was cool too. |

"Stupid fucking whiteman!!!!" That indian comes back in ghost dog. Hmm.....i just realised that when you mentioned Ghost Dog and Jim Jarmush directed them both. Both are good movies. I wonder what he is working on now. Anyone know? |

2001 : magnificent, brillaint sets & photogrpahy & a great descent of an AI into madness The Shining : scary, but they could have picked somone better (i.e. easier on the eye) to play the wife) Ghost Dog, another brill movie Anyone see La Heine, french movie set in urdan ghetto estates around Paris? one of my favourite movies |

I like the actor who played the wife in the Shining. If you were watching it for a chance to see some hot vixen then I don't think you've fully appreciated it. Give another spin. |

my favourite kubrick movie is definetly a clockwork orange and the soundtrack to it is just perfect (i love walter carlos). i also think the shining is the only scary horror movie i saw, scary as in really scary. and when i watched it, it was 3 o'clock in the afternoon and mom was baking pudding but my knees where still like water! stanlley kubrick by mogwai is indeed a great song. not necessarily one of their best but its definitly good. i saw la haine too, about three years ago. that movie really did something to me. did you guys see "ma c-té va kraké" or however they may spell it? its really really greater than la haine and it has a similar fibre. |

"ma c-té va kraké" I never heard of that one.....? What do you guys think of Lars Von Trier and the Dogma movies in general? I like them...one is called "the party" (i think?) and its really brilliant. |

Dancer in the Dark is my favorite film. I also really loved Breaking the Waves and Idiots. Those are the only Von Trier films I've seen. Do you know any of the other directors from the Dogma group (or whatever they are)? |

His films are great, but also tend to be flawed, but you have to take risks to be great. Even the "lesser" films are damn interesting if you sit down and give them a chance. Every image, every sound, has a place in the whole. Eyes wide shut is really interesting (even with Cruise) but imperfect, more interesting than the much more hyped American Beauty, which seemed false to me. Barry Lyndon is beautiful, another movie in which the lead actor seems like an odd choice. The climatic scene at the end with the pistols in the barn is incredible. 2001, where an acid trip takes you to next stage of human evolution? The use of sound is so cool. Of course performances by Malcolm Mcdowell and Jack Nicholson and Lee Ermey are unforgettable as long as you will live. |

Glad to see someone else saw the similarity between EWS and American Beauty. I thought AB was OK, pretty good in places, but EWS was better. |

WARNING! if anybody is thinking of buying Kubrick DVDs', make sure you get the ones that say DIGITALLY RESTORED AND REMIXED at the top, because the older, non-restored DVD boxes are exactly the same except for that line. i think they are even still the same price, but the quality of some of the unrestored versions are unbelievably awful, so bad you can't even believe they sold them at such low quality. The unrestored The Shining was the worse transfer I've seen to DVD, really bad. |

I think your TV pretty much limits the DVD player. DVD is still cooler than VHS though, even with a smaller TV. |

Get a DVD drive for your pc, with a video out to the tv. In a year's time you'll be able to by a dvd recorder drive for £200 and make your own copies |

You don't actually need a DVD writer, there is a program which enables your regular cd writer to do it... takes like 10 hours to set up, but it's worth it... I had it on a PC Essentials cover disk... |

It (Festen) is called The Celebration and not The Party in English. It´s really one of the strongest films I´ve ever seen, a lot better than The Idiots IMO. It seemed more sincere to me.. La Haine is very good as well, a lot less cliche than most american "ghetto films".. |
