  • @Zingerphile every time some one mention anything that even is remotely reminiscent of a tragedy people somehow (and very insensitively) jump to the conclusion that its a prediction of 9/11.

    you sir are an idiot.

  • And I think people generally have a poor psychological defense against awareness of mortality. We live in a world of distractions which themselves complicate and cause paradox and pain, and these (often desperate) distractions stem from an inability to cope with knowledge of death. “The power of distraction” that Woody Allen spoke of in an interview, is a pale substitute for acceptance. Yet still we shamble about like slaves to fear of abstractions.

  • @lucidnightmare969 Sorry that I don’t sound intelligent to you.  This is very distressing.

    The point I was making is that people distract themselves from awareness of mortality through many things (sex, art, religion, science, philosophy, etc…) because this awareness is difficult to functionally cope with. If this prospect seems confounding to you then, oh well; I have no other means of describing the obvious.

  • @sheepinavacuum Shut up, your not sounding intelligent. I don't even know what your point is-- we distract ourselves from death? In what way are you implying, by living?

  • Is this interview from a DVD?

  • @jacktheripoff1888 It still looks more like Iraq and i think that was Kubrick intention

  • @F1brawfa

    Kubrick almost never left England. So for filming FMJ, they just tried to make it look as Vietnam-like as possible. They imported hundreds of palm trees and used an abandoned part of a small English town for Hue City.

    Films like Platoon and Apocalypse Now were filmed in the Phillipines. That was never going to happen for FMJ. Half the film is the Paris Island squence and an old USAF base in England was used for that.

  • I love this interview! This is as close as we will ever get to kubrick.

  • 9/11 now? really guys? really? THIS IS A FUCKING STANLEY KUBRICK INTERVIEW!!

  • @MrMagician1 Full metal jacket takes plac ein Vietnam but it looks like Iraq explain that
