| I agree, Dr. Strangelove is the best, it's a very special one. Apart from it, I'd pick 2001:SO, althogh I haven't seen all of them. It's sci-fi and I like sci-fi, I'm sorry, can't help. Also, I've seen A.I. the very same day I've seen Dr Strangelove. A.I. is far from bad, mind you, it was rather enjoyable - to me, again. However, I can't help but wonder what Kubrick would made out of it if he'd been directing it, like he was going to. It seems like A.I. could be sort of the real sequel to 2001. Doom II: HAL on Earth or something. |
| I would have to say The Shining, and yes, I know I need to watch more of his films, you needn't remind me I haven't seen Dr. Strangelove! |

| I'm hardly qualified to make any judgement right now; I've only covered a small bit of his works. I think A Clockwork Orange would be pretty damn hard to beat, though. I was bored by 2001: the technical excellency is daunting to recount, with believeable gravity, massively engrossing imagery and the infamous mindfuck ending. Yet I found myself on the verge of gasping on my way through it. Of course, I'm not yet enough well-versed in film criticism to actually state anything definite. |

| Ah, poor Malcolm. He paid quite the price for that magnificent role he played, I've gathered. To specify myself on 2001: It was the most boring thing I ever liked. And I detest boredom on Haruhiesque levels, so it's quite something, that. |

Kaiserpingvin said: I think A Clockwork Orange would be pretty damn hard to beat, though. Wasn't so for me some years ago. And I've seen it without any translationl aid - no dub, no subtitles, I haven't even read the book. English's foreign to me, and still it went fine. Dear god, the things I could do back then. |
| "Pretty hard to beat" as in "so good I think it's not going to be overcome by his other movies", I meant. |

| I see, my mistake |
| Why, nothing to mention. Any droog could do it without a sufficient amount of daily ultraviolence to clear his head. |

| Full Metal Jacket hands down, however A Clockwork Orange would be 2nd for me. |
