kirk douglas played a nice role in kubrick's "paths of glory"

when it came time to make spartacus, chinboy and kubrick fought over "creative differences" re:screenplay and other matters, with the end result being spartacus becoming some horrid hollywood sappy shitfest that showcases chinpoke as the greatest mantitties ever (or something) as and kubrick eventually "disowning" the movie. if you want to see how the man was capable of handling historical drama, look no futher than "barry lyndon" and compare such masterpiece to this cheeseball "maciste" movie.

i'm looking online for more accurate sources than my sloppy morning prose. i'll post you something.

yes, its real.

i also went to see this shit and i was fucking disappointed

nicoke kidman's nasal prosthetics were ridiculous





what a fucking sappy, ridiculous, rambling, boring, irrelevant, predictable movie

virginia woolf must be rolling in her grave

Have you guys heard they are making On The Road into a movie?

On The Road

Those movies gave me countless nightmares as a young boy.


HA

I got to agree with that one.

You know which ones are the worst. Those 80's action movies translated into spanish.

yeahduh

No, it basically has the same plot as Texas Chainsaw Massacre- he doesn't die, which sets it up for a number 2.

wolf was pretty terrible and american pie 1 & 2 were just atrocious. i walked out of the cinema at that one.

You're kidding me right? He was sublime in another Kubrick film 3 years earlier, and Spartacus wasn't that bad either. I agree with Kidman having a very bad nose job, but Streep and Harris made up for it.

yeah paths of glory i wrote about it please read on.

and the hours sucked refried cliched gonads-- unfuckingbearable-- i wanted to kill that stupid julianne moore-- julianne moore! she was so wonderful in "vanya on 42nd street" and todd haynes's "safe," and then this shit...

Well, your're entitled to your own opinion... I've seen worse, if you want to talk about Julianne Moore^.

Most people here have shit taste.

War of the Worlds rocked.

Hostel rocked.


Leprechaun 4 in space is pretty bad...as is Leprechaun in the Hood with Ice T.

Troll and Troll 2 are pretty fucking bad too.

But...

The WORST MOVIE ever! Has got to be....


THE SHAFT! (not to be confused with "Shaft")

THE SHAFT is a horror movie about a possessed elevator...and it is damn rad!

of course! opinions are like assholes, etc.

oh! she did the refry of psycho? never have i seen it, never will it. how can you improve upon the original? that's just so fucking wrong.

anyway yes sorry i hated the hours i hated spartacus so fucking SAPPY!
there are beautiful moments/shots no doubt but i detested it as a whole, the whole fucking score gave me rashes as well--

oh i finally found something: http://pages.prodigy.com/kubrick/kubsp.htm


disown! i would too...

The remake of pshycho sucked sweaty balls.

Back in 1983, Dutch Writer/Director Dick Mass released the Horror movie, DE LIFT aka THE LIFT.

Apparently, Dick Maas thought his flick was a turd as well. Nearly 20 years later a much older and presumably wiser Dick decided to remake and release his own film (now made in France). Only this time, he called it DOWN.

DOWN became THE SHAFT in the U.S.

He made a very very big mistake, 'cause The LIFT had already become a cult movie.

ok... there are like 3 or 4 kubrick movies i have not seen, thparticus & barry lyndon are both on that list... thanks for the scoop!

I haven't seen it either. I keep well away from most remakes, especially ones ripped from the master of suspense.

Have you noticed how many remakes hollywood have come up with in the last few years?
