Going to watch The Shining first. Should I watch A Clockwork Orange after it or Dr Strangelove?
All epic choices! I'd personally follow it with A Clockwork Orange, but it really depends on your mood - both are awesome films. But you already knew that.

I absolutely adore Dr Strangelove. I haven't seen A Clockwork Orange, but I've read the book so clearly I'm more highbrow and stuff

I've seen Kubrick's films many times, so it doesn't really matter what I go and watch. I don't have time to watch them tonight though, I have plans. Damn.

But I might be seeing Source Code tonight.
It's been getting unexpectedly good reviews. I've always had a soft spot for Jake since Donnie Darko.

It's Duncan Jones, he proved he was a great director with Moon. Apparently the film isn't as 'low-brow' as some made it out to be when the first trailer hit.

Hmmm, Moon was excellent, my only gripe is the ending.
I have to read that soon. Any tips? My attempts to read it casually have all been thwarted by not really trying hard enough.
Hahah, no, I got like 10 pages into it and then I was like 'JOYCE, U MAD ' and gave up. I suppose you just need to go with the flow in the first reading (just like Ulysses) and then consult analysis and annotations after your first reading.

I dunno, every chapter in Ulysses was stylistically different enough that if you didn't like one part, you could just slog through it and get to something you prefer. Everyone who bothers to finish it seems to like different chapters
But Finnegan's Wake, from the limited amount I've read, just seems to be a steady stream of impenetrable nonsense.

I love Kubrick Shame you won't have time to watch them tonight!
Think I'm going to re-watch Office Space tonight, haven't watched it in a while and I remember thoroughly enjoying it before...

Finnegans Wake is supposed to be a dream, I think. It takes place over a single night.
Just finished with Animal Kingdom. I really liked it; even though the overarching theme seems somewhat clichéd, there are lots of unexpected parts to keep one interested.
