    How I spent my Saturday. Don't be jelly.

    You are transparent; I see many things... I see plans within plans.

        Eyes wide shut isn't a popcorn flick for your amusement. It is Kubrick's exposure to Secret societies in this case the "Saturn death cult" which has been described similar to the clip posted.

            Was this before or after the pastrami? Because I've found, speaking personally, that costumes and heavy meals are not always compatible.

              It could be both, never underestimate synthesis.

                I'm sorry Nostalgiabuff, but I can no longer discuss this. I received a package from the Saturn Death Cult that had a bed sheet in it, which means I've already divulged too much.

                  I like Kubrick's work but I could never bring myself to watching Eyes Wide Shut because of my hatred of the sight of anything Tom Cruise related.

                  Tom Cruise is Kryptonite to me.

                  I would rather spend the weekend trapped in an elevator with Pauly Shore and Carrot Top more than 10 minutes trapped with Tom Cruise

                  That said, is Eyes Wide Shut worth a look ?

                    it's worth a look only if you want to see a lot of naked woman, including Nicole Kidman. movie itself sucks

                      Hmmm,

                      Naked Nicole Kidman vs anything Tom Cruise ?

                      I might just have to give it a try --- Naked Nicole Kidman is like catnip to me

                          Tom Cruise is hot and cold with me. But he’s been in some really good science fiction movies like Minority Report, Oblivion, Edge of Tomorrow, War of the Worlds. They are among my favorites. I also like his fantasy one, Legend. But I hate his romance fluff stuff. I think his Mission Impossible and Jack Reacher movies are solid popcorn movies. Born on the Fourth of July proved he can act a bit.

                          I’m sure his Scientology beliefs get in the way, but doesn’t bother me, he could be a Satanist for all I care, lol.

                          But love him or hate him, there’s no denying, he’s the only leading A-list actor who does this...



                          Tom Cruise is also set to be the first actor to go into space via SpaceX and shoot a scene for a movie, that’s awesome. The movie company will of course pay the bill.

                          Not trying to convince you, if you hate him, you hate him.

                            I love Stanley Kubrick...but Eyes Wide Shut is not one on my favorites of his. It’s still an artful film though.
