Watched There Will Be Blood last night. Possibly the best movie ending ever.

Never heard of him. Who is he? A skinhead punk musician?

Maybe now would be a good time for me to mention the sample from 2001: A Space Odyssey here in "Dark 1.2" by Darkspace and how it's totally fitting to the concept.

I've seen it a couple of times and read the novel (I even wrote a paper on it back when I was a student), too, and, yeah, it's very very veeeeeeeeery slow. It deals with some very interesting themes, to be sure, but it never impressed me to the same degree that it seems to have impressed most people.
Whenever the monolith appears, a new era or phase or whatever in the human evolution is sparked off. The first time it appears, the apes start using tools, and when it appears on the moon, it sparks off human intergalactic traveling (embodied in the expedition to find the source of the monoliths [as far as I remember]) and when it appears floating in space, and everything gets trippy, and Archer appears in the embryonic state this really represents another stage in human evolution and embryonic Archer, or the Star Child, is the next step in the human evolution (so from apes to humans to the Star Child).

Kinda... I think. The fact that the protagonist is showed at four or five different (increasingly older) ages sort of implies that he ends up living in the room for years and years until his death. It seems like the monolith (which appears a few other times throughout the film) takes him away, and he's changed into an embryonic state, thus re-beginning his life? I could be terribly wrong here... the ending is quite confusing. The HAL part of the story is the only part I fully understood. |

I also watched some Kubrick lately with A Clockwork Orange. It was the second time I've seen it.

Watched this for the first time while I was home sick today:
![]() 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) A hell of a lot more abstract and trippy than I was expecting, but I ended up enjoying it. Though the first hour or so was a bit too slow (IMO), it ended up leaving a very positive first impression. I sense that this one needs to be watched a few more times before I can formulate a definite opinion. For now it's a 4/5. |

I always suspected listening to to much Boris did something in your brain.

Yes sir! ![]() But yeah, you're actually right. I, personally, do not believe in giraffes but well... YOU CAN believe in them and that that they have the same amount of vertebrae as humans, I do respect that... ![]() I have seen this movie a few weeks ago and liked it. ![]() |

Wrong place for this discussion, k?
People can believe whatever they want to believe, it's not anybody's place to tell them otherwise unless they ask for it. I believe in giraffes. Edited by Triceratopsoil - 20 Nov 2011 at 10:16pm |

There are facts in evolution, but as a whole I see too many unexplained things in evolution for it to proven. Edited by Sheavy - 20 Nov 2011 at 9:26pm |
