It's also a pointless waste of ring charge.


But it does create an extra accessory for the action figures released alongside the film.

I think TGL is an interesting character cos of his powers, essentially being limited to anything he can envision or think of forming with the ring

As much as I love Stanley Kubrick and as much as I think 2001: A Space Odyssey is one of the biggest moments of cinema in special effects and in directing, as well as being one of the defining moments for science-fiction, I have to confess that the movie is just so ****ing boring. I'd take Empire Strikes Back any day. Sorry, I am now offering my body to be pillaged. Tuck in!




Your body deserves whatever happens to it after this insult :colonhash:

Seriously, though, this is the most common criticism of the film, and considering the pacing, it's not really a surprise. It's not an easy film to enjoy, but it's very rewarding if you can enjoy it. You kind of have to just let it wash over you. :dontknow:

Sometimes people just don't like certain films. 2001 is one of them for me. I admire it in the sense that it is one of the best sci-fi movies of all time. Also, Kubrick has made superior films to 2001, IMO.

This is fair enough. I don't really get Gone With the Wind (in terms of appeal) or Oliver Stone myself.

And he has made superior films, although 2001 still ranks incredibly highly for me.

I like the Clown Vader and Vader Liberty. And Spiky Bling Vader. Haha, they're all pretty cool.


Those are awesome! Really interesting to see what some of the artists did...

Oh and I love 2001. Just sayin'.

I don't really do multiplayer. I'm terrible at it. :colondollar:
Prefer SP stuff like Thief, Fallout, Baldur's Gate, adventure games, Dragon Age, etc., and even in games with multiplayer I never ever use it.

Rango wouldn't normally appeal to me, but I do love westerns. :coma:

My exams ended yesterday, so I want to watch a movie today. I'll have to shuffle through my recent acquisitions and see what I'm in the mood for. I might go with Sweet Sixteen, because I was pretty impressed by Martin Compston in Red Road. Also, the Glasgow accent is quite endearing. :colondollar:

Sitting through Sucker Punch (in a near deserted cinema, despite the fact that it was cheap day yesterday), all I could think about is how awful a Nolan-Snyder collaboration is going to end up. It would be like if Tarantino started financing Michael Bay films.

For the end of the exams? Thanks, but those were just the mocks - the real ones start next month. :tongue:

Incidentally, how is Sucker Punch? I've heard very varied comments/reviews about it.

Also, I'll be going to watch In a Better World - the winner of the Oscar for Best Foreign Film - tomorrow. :biggrin:

Yep, I watched it last night. Those people are seriously nuts. It's shocking how they haven't been shut down by some higher power already - I don't think they'd be allowed to operate like they do in England... I understand that they have the right to free speech, but they're downright offensive.
