A bunch of great movies. Very close between Dr. Strangelove and Full Metal Jacket, but Full Metal Jacket gets my vote. Chilling, scary, sad, and a very realistic feel. Kubrick got some great performances out of the actors too. Vincent D'Nofrio's transformation is just mesmerizing.

That's probably because it's a Polanski movie. Wink

Anyway, Eyes Wide Shut for me.

My favourite director, but not all his movies are on my list:
  1. A Clockwork Orange (by far the best movie I seen)
  2. The Shining (The best horror movie ever)
  3. Dr. Strangelove
  4. Full Metal Jackett
  5. 2001
  6. Spartacus
  7. Barry Lyndon (Because of the photography)
  8. Eyes Wide Shut
  9. Paths of Glory
  10. Lolita

Mentions to Lolita and Clockwork
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

I'll have to go for The Shining. I've always loved that film.

There's a few gems there, Full Metal Jacket and 2001 most notably.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Barry Lyndon for me too even thought I think it may not be his best.

The Shining is my favorite movie of all time. Personal preference aside though, I think Barry Lyndon is technically his best film.

Bolshy Great Yarblockos to thee and thine! Do watch that Dim! We sat in the Korova Milkbar making up our rassodocks what to do with the evening. We were drinking Moloko Vellocet that would sharpen us up for the old.... ultra violence.
 
yes i am a closet Clockwork Orange addict. Now you know the truth.

I've only seen Dr Strangelove, Full Metal Jacket and The Shining. So out of those three...my vote goes to Dr Strangelove! Great movie. I really do have to get around to seeing 2001 and A Clockwork Orange

as wonderful as all his films were, at the end of the day I think Paths of Glory has few rivals

Without a doubt "The Shinning." Not only is it my favorite Kubrick film, but it's also by far the greatest horror movie of all time imo.

I haven't seen all of them, only 3 if I remember correctly. So far, 2001 is my favorite. Gotta love Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite.
