I like that he says everybody else is upset. This all started with his revolt against one of the most well known major influences in cinema. Cause he didn't like it.

I'm not a fan of films that rely on visual effects rather than scripts. I'm not a Kubrick fan at all and aside from that I firmly believe that long before 2001 there were better films that offer more to the genre.
Arthur C Clarke was pretty cool though.

Rod Serling was the greatest contributor to screen science fiction and there's more credible, thought provoking, provocative writing in a Twilight Zone 30 second intro than in the three hours of 2001.

What I am saying is that to me it is simply boring.
I'd get bored of looking at any pretty things especially if they didn't do much beyond look nice. That's why I don't hang pictures up.

None of this is vitriolic.
It's certainly unforgiving, but clearly not vitriolic or a "revolt". Saying something is boring is not bitter or malicious you idiots.

You guys are fucking terrible interpreters.

If someone makes a thread about something you cannot expect everybody to respond positively if they don't like it.

Fuck off.

At no point have I insulted or denied the influence of "2001: a Space Odyssey" though so what are you actually talking about?

I have said I didn't particularly like it, admitted it was visually stunning and groundbreaking and because I denied that it was the SOLE INFLUENCE FOR EVERY SINGLE SCI FI FILM MADE IN THE DECADE AFTERWARDS you guys have decided to act as though I said "it stinks and is for losers".

This is very much a problem born of your lack of intelligence. You actively ignore everything I say on the topic by way of pretending you can't see it.

What the fuck is the point in that?

You're not sparing yourself any embarrassment by arguing against points nobody made. It makes you look stupid and cowardly.

lol Fact is the movie changed the game. Whatever else you wanna say about me or the movie or director is completely Irrelavent. And you're not helping your case shrieking about how calm you are.

I wasn't confusing you with Destor at all. You accused me of vitriol, I deny that. You refuse to back up the accusation because it holds no water.

That seems a bit thick to me.

You have also obviously confused what Destor said. Destor was talking in absolutes, I was telling him that this was daft and extremely easy to disprove.

2001 was influential, it just didn't influence every single film for the next ten years.
That was the point I disagreed with.

If that is really so hard for you to understand then I can only feel bad for you.

There is no other way for me to explain this exceedingly basic premise. You are on your own.
