Your 100 PSI's?

[hulot]

Just go watch 2001 right now. Please.

[Pickpocket]

Only have 2 and never heard of either

Kahdeksan surmanluotia (1972)
Under The Fluttering Military Flag (1972)

Yes go watch 2001. It is required of you.
I don't have a single 100 psi...is that normal?

[Bojangles]

I have none, but like 8 99's.

I think it depends on your scores. I don't either, but after looking at my 99s they're all full tier 10s, so it seems my score distribution in tier 10 prevents me from having a PSI of 100.

I have 3 99's
Raining in the Mountain (1979) Only mild interest in this one.
Neotpravlennoye pismo (1959) I'd never heard of this but after seeing it's by Kalatozov I really want to see it
Tree of Knowledge (1981) Sounds interesting.

Nothing at 100 or 99. I have two at 98;

The Iceman Confesses: Secrets of a Mafia Hitman (2001):

Watched about 10 minutes of it; boring stuff, nothing I haven't heard/read before.

Marketa Lazarová (1967):

Looks interesting. Supposedly the greatest Czech film ever. I'll try to check it out.

[ShogunRua]

Am I asking to many questions? Ya, probably.

No, you're not; 2001 is a shitty, painfully boring, overrated film. It doesn't "stand" for anything, and Kubrick has even admitted as much. It's just there to appear to stand for something, and seem "deep".

I have one 99: A Tanú (1969) . Sounds promising, but Eastern European satires about Communism are kind of a dime a dozen.

The Human Condition III: A Soldier's Prayer
Macario
Ordet
Satantango

HC3 - Obviously you should try Human Condition I first and see if you like it. I loved the trilogy when I first saw it, but over the years my opinion has lessened slightly. I should revisit them, but I haven't been motivated enough. I bought the Criterion set and after 10 minutes I just didn't want to bother so I sold it.

Satantango - One of my absolute favorites, but 9 hours is a big investment if you've never seen a Tarr film before. I would recommend starting with Werckmeister Harmonies instead.

Ordet is very good, Macario is good.

Neotpravlennoye pismo (1959) I'd never heard of this but after seeing it's by Kalatozov I really want to see it

It's astonishing, I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Marketa Lazarová (1967):

I thought it was really boring, but then you thought 2001 was boring, so who knows.

It doesn't "stand" for anything, and Kubrick has even admitted as much. It's just there to appear to stand for something, and seem "deep".

The monoliths don't "stand for something", they ARE something. They're put there by the aliens for various purposes. The first one is to give mankind a little "boost". Note how after the monolith appears, the cavemen discover tools. The second is to signal the aliens that man has advanced enough to reach the moon.
