The Blade Runner and Alien comic adaptations are also pretty sweet

has that 2001 comic ever been reissued?
― (The Other) J.D. (J.D.), Thursday, 7 March 2013 06:54 (eleven years ago) link
nope (think there might be copyright issues involved) - panel above is from the large-size treasury adaptation of the movie, and then there about ten or so issues of the comic that 'continue' the story - the machine man character was spun-off from that into his own title

What do you all think about Spielberg producing Kubrick's Napoleon screenplay?

I've been halfheartedly looking for it for years, no luck yet.

it'll be kinda gross if they try to sell it as a "Stanley Kubrick movie" when it won't be that even in the limited sense that A.I. was a kubrick movie. but otherwise, kinda looking forward to it!

I don't think any of us have read SK's script, so who can say, aside from kneejerk SS haters?
― Pope Rusty I (Dr Morbius), Friday, 8 March 2013 18:15 (eleven years ago) link
I am more than enough of a history nerd to be excited about Spielberg producing a Napoleon mini-series. Even if they incorporate just a hint of Kubrick's sensibilities, I'm looking forward to it.
― Gukbe, Friday, 8 March 2013 18:18 (eleven years ago) link
I don't think any of us have read SK's script, so who can say, aside from kneejerk SS haters?actually the script is out there on the internet. anyway, i think this is good news -- if anyone can do it with the appropriate scope (and budget) it's probably spielberg.
― tylerw, Friday, 8 March 2013 18:20 (eleven years ago) link
I think a kneejerk reaction is fine for anybody who saw A.I. Also, if you gave the 2001 script to any director other than SK, the chances of the resulting film being a fraction as good as the real deal are super slim.
― Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 8 March 2013 18:21 (eleven years ago) link
Isn't the script also in that massive Napoleon book?
― Gukbe, Friday, 8 March 2013 18:22 (eleven years ago) link
we've collectively reassessed AI and determined it to be a masterpiece. catch up. post
i don't have the napoleon book, i just remember reading a pdf of the thing a decade or so ago...i should get the book, i guess! man, aside from the first 20 minutes or so, i loathed AI. i suppose i should give it another go, i know plenty of people rep for it.
― tylerw, Friday, 8 March 2013 18:25 (eleven years ago) link
I hate it fwiw
― Donkamole Marvin (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 8 March 2013 18:26 (eleven years ago) link
like it or hate it, AI was faithful to Kubrick's story treatment.
― Pope Rusty I (Dr Morbius), Friday, 8 March 2013 18:34 (eleven years ago) link
yeah my issues with it are independent of the Spielberg vs. Kubrick brouhaha
― Donkamole Marvin (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 8 March 2013 18:35 (eleven years ago) link
its kinda hard to say how faithful kubrick would have been to his own treatment tho
― zero dark (s1ocki), Friday, 8 March 2013 18:36 (eleven years ago) link
Cool, i didn't read the story treatment, i watched the movie.
― Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 8 March 2013 18:58 (eleven years ago) link
spielberg shld hire Miklós Jancsó to direct the napoleon script
― Ward Fowler, Friday, 8 March 2013 19:27 (eleven years ago) link
ai was boring and cruel in the way kubrick is prone to but without his enigmatic stateliness
― plax (ico), Saturday, 9 March 2013 00:21 (eleven years ago) link
enigmatic stateliness replaced by Spielberg's sweaty hamfists

This is the Canada Film Board documentary that 'inspired' 2001. Kubrick brought over a number of people that worked on this, including the voice of HAL 9000 Douglas Rain, who appears here as narrator! Great film!

oh for fuck's sake i knew that and couldn't place it. thanks.

Barry Lyndon is possibly favourite Kubrick. Didn't you think it was funny?

It's among his most profound statements on the human condition. also O'Neal is perfect for it.
