While posting and commenting in this community, you must abide by the Lemmy.World Terms of Service: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

  1. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, or advocating violence will be removed.

  2. Be civil: disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally insult others.

  3. Spam, self promotion, trolling, and bots are not allowed

  4. Shitposts and memes are allowed until they prove to be a problem.

    Regarding spoilers; Please put "(Spoilers)" in the title of your post if you anticipate spoilers, as we do not currently have a spoiler tag available. If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred. As far as how long to wait until the post is no longer a spoiler, please just use your best judgement. Everyone has a different idea on this, so we don't want to make any hard limits.

    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Failure to follow these guidelines will result in your post/comment being removed and/or more severe actions. All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. We ask that the users report any comment or post that violates the rules, and to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting.

Tough to choose just one, but as a die hard sci-fi nerd, gun to my head, I'm going with 2001.

I watched it last year and I can understand how groundbreaking it probably was at the time, but just didn’t hit the right notes for me.

It could be one of those things too where I’ve seen so many tropes and parodies of it over the decades, that it maybe took away from the impact for me.

It's a giant snooze fest, no matter how the cult followers love it.

This 100%. It is a good movie but the lack of dialogue for the first half hour with the classical music playing puts me to sleep every time. In fact I often put it on when I want to go to sleep.

Aw man, but it’s so beautiful to look at
