[playadominical]

why on earth did they interview George Lucas for a video about artful filmmaking?

[socloseno]

[MrKUBRICKIAN]

Love the shot at 3:23,that's just how i picture him.

[Myytmovies]

fuck you kubrick, why'd you have to die and leave hollywood in the hands of amatuer film makers??!!!

[TheChokeoutartist]

@NickTorrance237 dont listen to gordansta hes a troll he told me that hes workd with will smith tom cruise and charlie murphy to which is a complete lie

[TheChokeoutartist]

@gordansta ur such a troll you said you workd with will smith jus a month ago

[lightingcobra]

Yea Kubrick's movies are some of the most upredictable in the history of cinema

[Markfly]

Amazing. I don't have this thing called "BluRay"...yet...but I love this man and this film more that I can say, so THANK YOU!

[lotorobly]

I named Stanley in my latest writings not to come to my wedding

[90zlaya]

I named Stanley Kubrick as best director ever in book I'm currently writing.

[straker2]

He was the best director all them all. In fact, he still is.

whats the film with the monkeys in?

[TheAltair4]

@s0348953 2001: A Space Odyssey

[ECHALE2000]

fascinating! the mocst brilliant director of our time

[1Kingmaker]

Kubrick didn't care what you think about anything. And you shouldn't either. Blah blah Nicholson, blah blah this, blah blah that.

It is what it is.  Films aren't made for you or your expectations. If you have just made this connection, now you can start to appreciate proper art.

[MoveOverCasanova]

i just find nicholson as a horror actor bad choice -- he is always funny, he makes a comedy out of every scene that could be scary as hell with a really good actor imho

[dani9714]

@MoveOverCasanova Jack Nicholson is amazing at everything he does, he IS  a good actor (:

[MoveOverCasanova]

@dani9714 i love him, but somehow i find he is not good at being really terrifying, but that is maybe just my view, i cannot take him seriously at all --- just raising the eyebrows and dropping the chin makes no convincing psycho killer to me....

[AMBat3rdrock]

@MoveOverCasanova maybe you are confusing what you say is a comedic performance with his portrayal of insanity you have to remember kubrick was a perfectionist and i dont think that he would have allowed the acting to remain in the final version if he thought it was comedic, sure there are some elements that could be seen as humourous but i think that is the audiences perception of it because IMHO i think the acting is splendid and i think jack was well cast. thanx for your comment.

[MoveOverCasanova]

@AMBat3rdrock kubrick was a perfectionist, but still i find nicholson unconvincing here, just my view

[gordonsta2]

I shall simply say that I was immensely fortunate to have worked with Stanley for 18 months on The Shining. I was completely devastated at the news of his death in 1999. I just cried and cried.

[NickTorrance237]

@gordonsta2 I feel fortunate and thankful that I am able to reply to a comment from someone who worked on my favorite film of all time. I cannot express into words what this film means to me. I first saw it when I was around 4 or 5. I have seen it countless times since. Because of this film, I am trying to become a filmmaker. Whoever you are, thank you...

[ZootWorld1]

@gordonsta2 What did you do on The Shining specifically?

[stiglistanbul]

@ZootWorld1 gordonsta2 would be Gordon Stainforth, I'd assume, assistant director on The Shining

[ZootWorld1]

@stiglistanbul If it is Gordon Stainforth, then it's too bad he hasn't accessed his account in months.

[2PacJoel]

Amazing

[pauljohnwood]

[maxonfire67]

[GhostSnake]

Great, man. Keep on the good work.

[BringBackTheEighties]

Thank you! Great upload from a classic.

[jerrylentz]

This is great stuff! There will never be another Stanley Kubrick film, that is so very sad.
