Seven Kings Must Die (2023 Netflix)- Superb ending to the Netflix series The Last Kingdom, an historical drama set in 10th Century England. I especially liked the ending. If not familiar, see the link. You have to watch the 5 Seasons first.

The first one was ok ish.
The new 2nd movie is terrible, could not make it through 10 mins. Pointless action over and over.. and over again. Became sensless and turned it off.

I saw the new Mission Impossible movie yesterday. It was great.

Kubrick truly unleashed. I read a book by Arthur C Clarke, "The Lost Worlds of 2001", which was a diary/chronology of how he wrote and Kubrick produced the movie. Clarke's descriptions of how he operated were hysterical. Like how he sent some book to SK and never got it back because he "uses a tame black hole as a file system".

Can you explain it to me?
On the surface this is a pretty simple story, isn’t it? At least that is how I remember it. However, I’ll admit I’m foggy on all the details. Got invited to an orgy…🥳

Last week, I had a close co-worker confide with me that She--going agin' the grain of her usual character--decided to watch 'Heredetary'.
She--and I quote--said: "There was one part in there that I found disturbing."
I was like "Unh, er, is it on Max?"
duh
I first watched it last year (IIRC) when it debut'(ted) on HBO Max, but I wasn't reminded of the fact until I re-watched it on Max (over two nights) this past week.
As I counted the 'disturbing' parts, I quickly ran out of fingers!
mheh!
When I was prepared to bring my (re)watching of this awkward masterpiece to the table that lies between the two of us, I was actually surprised that She held that the 'disturbing' part was imprinted upon the first of my 23 fingers.
Great movie; but--dare I say--one where the popcorn ultimately lies cold, and un-eaten.

Totally-fantastic cinema.
I didn't always have a lot to bring to the Table watching for ex. Moses (Chas. Heston), but I always appreciate that Kubrick allows the potential for such incredible personal-input in each of his pieces.

You have to carefully observe the slow, inevitable erosions of all Bill’s certainties in life. And you have to pay special attention to the last dialogue.Can you explain it to me?

I saw this film in the theater and it really stuck with me and not because of the ceremony (though it creeped me out). Masterpiece.

People focus on the ceremony because it’s quite transgressive, but in reality that’s probably the least traumatizing thing in the movie.

I like this description:
The Ending Of Eyes Wide Shut Explained - Looper
Stanley Kubrick's last film was a mystery drama called Eyes Wide Shut starring Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise. Here's the 1999 film's ending explained.

However I admit, I was not enamored with the story in this film.

2001 was such a disappointment when I was 15. It was an expectations issue.Kubrick truly unleashed. I read a book by Arthur C Clarke, "The Lost Worlds of 2001", which was a diary/chronology of how he wrote and Kubrick produced the movie. Clarke's descriptions of how he operated were hysterical. Like how he sent some book to SK and never got it back because he "uses a tame black hole as a file system".
Later I recognized it’s brilliance, but describe the film as overly visual. What really helped was reading the book. 2010 is a worthy sequel.

I was about 13 and was totally mesmerized but didn't really understand the path of the story. I remember there was only one theater, The Sony, that could show it. And yes, the story makes so much more sense after reading the book.2001 was such a disappointment when I was 15. It was an expectations issue.
One book of Clarke's I would love to see made into a movie is "Rendezvous with Rama". Good hard sci-fi without too much drama.
