Because some films you wont appreciate if you hop on ur phone and break the immersion, just want the guy to experience it in the best way possible

Then ig it doesnt mean anything to you. More power to you. I didnt look away from the screen for a second the first time i watched 2001 and it felt like i really was in another place for that runtime and it really enhanced the experience for me personally

Blew my mind and sparked my (serious) interest in film. Forever special

Saying it doesn’t mean anything to me because I made 1 post 5 mins in? Lmao. Okay.

Well yeah sure youre gonna feel that way if you keep misreading my posts to be some sort of personal attack lmaooo

That was reffering to full immersion or getting in some sort of hypnotic state that are linked to films like this for me. Not about the film itself

When i know it’s that type of film i make sure my phone isn’t nowhere near me

What you do is your choice fam

I enjoyed it I just don’t get how making 1 post at the very start would break immersion.

Its no big deal lmao i just prefer to train myself not to get distracted like that early on because it might break my attention span sooner

Like i said it wasnt meant to come across as a personal attack or w/e

I usually don’t either but I had no clue what it was about so I came on to ask. There wasn’t any human dialogue for like 23 mins lmao

True, caught me off guard at first too. But i love the lack of dialogue. It’s very visceral

I thought the movie came out in like 1991. Had no clue it was that old.

The true definition of “ahead of its time” and it only gets better with time and rewatches too

I wish there was a way for streaming services or companies to update sound quality. It’s the only thing that kind of ruins old movies for me.

it even has a blunt break!

This movie is such a f***in classic goddamn.

i want a custom made piece based off the monolith fr

this is one of those movies that’ll be remembered fondly long after we’re all gone

right next to bvs

the middle where HAL takes over and goes rogue might be the greatest piece of thriller/suspense cinema we'll ever see.

need to rewatch again to see if the beginning and end grow on me a little more.

I kept falling asleep watching I can’t finish it

you disagree?

Beginning and end are f***ing brilliant

@Womanpuncher69

ok? the middle portion of the film is where you get most of the thrill and suspense. all i said was i wanna rewatch it again to take in the beginning and end, see if it connects with me a little more.

The only time I've watched this was on a big ass projector in biology class in HS,due a rewatch
