re: 2001: A Space Odyssey turned 50 this week

While I can appreciate the cinematography and special effects for a movie made in the 60s, I still don’t find the film all that interesting. I get why people do, it’s just the awkward pace that throws me off and puts me to sleep. Especially the extended trippy scene toward the end.

It’s funny that some people take jabs at people who complain about the pace, and saying that maybe they’d enjoy some action movie like transformers, but this movie was also eye candy to the extreme in its time.
