When yu're talkin' to yourself,and nobody's home...


« on: September 03, 2006, 10:01:27 PM »

I saw it, thought it was a pretty good and original movie. Then I played it to my friends, and all of them, without exeption, thought it was the biggest piece of horseshit they ever saw....

  Any opinions?

It's one of the greatest movies ever.  It really reflected the struggle in society in that time period.

It's out there alright!  But yes, it's a masterpiece.  I just love the quotes from that movie, like, "Naughty, naughty, naughty!"   hihi

I had an A Clockwork Orange avatar for about fifteen thousand years, so count me.

All I will add though is,

what a soundtrack!

Another great thing was Alex's wardrobe throughout the film, I just dug the white jumpsuits and fedoras, then the suits....


There were so many references to evil in that movie.  The prison warden who looked like Hitler, and the uniform numbers of Alex's old friends, the one's who became police officers and almost killed him.  They were 665 and 667.

One of the best Kubrick's movies. I can't believe some people dislike it, it's really a piece of art, along with 2001, Full Metal Jacket, Lolita and The Shining - and I'm only talkin' about the Warner movies!

Also, you may want to try Dr. Strangelove. Peter Sellers is nothing but amazing!


Edited to fix the mistake.

Dr. Strangelove was brilliant also!  I love how Kubrick puts his own mad twisteed humor on things, it really adds to the film!

I own a orange t-shirt thanks to that movie.

Did I mention the t-shirt is orange?

A Clockwork Orange is actually my favorite movie and Stanley Kubrick is my favorite director.  all of his movies were brilliant, with the exception of Fear And Desire and Killers Kiss.   he was one of the true artists of film making.  he never repeated himself, he always did something different every time.

Because you've seen it a zillion times doesn't make it overrated.  Wink
