I just watched 2001 a few weeks ago. Sooooo ahead of its time and so brilliant. Kubrick was unrivaled in the analog era of film.
Full Metal Jacket and A Clockwork Orange are both top all time films too. RIP to the legend, I still get sad there will never be another Kubrick film.
2001 is definitely one of my favourites of his. It paved the way for so many sci fi movies
Fully analog. The people who made those movies were artisans and it sucks because those skills are lost now. Nobody knows how to do those analog special effects anymore. It would probably take a very capable team a decade to re-figure all that stuff out.
Unpopular opinion: analog special effects >>>> digital fx
Oh definitely. The first two alien movies for example. And prometheus and covenant. Way better in my opinion because the xenomorph is a tall skinny guy wearing a well made suit
Yes, agreed. In 2001 I couldn’t believe how good the apes looked even though they were guys in mechanical suits. But looks way more real and interesting than animations.
Have you seen The Thing? Some of the best analog special effects of all time imo
No I haven’t. I wanna watch it soon. I think ypu mentionned it to me already
It is so good. The music, fx, plot. Love that movie.
It’s downloading as we speak 🫡
Enjoy 👑
Looking forward to it. Thanks 👑
The Thing was so, so ahead of its time. I rewatch it like almost every year.
Yeah it’s a masterpiece. And something that won’t ever be recreated.
