Still better sci-fi than The Force Awakens.
If you removed half an hour from 2001 it would be a good movie.
As it is, it's just a slow masturbatory flick for idiots to watch while high and think they have a higher than average IQ whenever they say it's the best movie ever because of muh deep symbolism and muh artistically slow scenes with classical music and lights.
In regards to the comparison to Star Wars, that's like saying Interstellar is a better comedy than Lincoln.

No shit, Dick Tracy

Solaris > 2001

Star Wars isnt really Sci-Fi its more Adventure.
And if you see it as sci-fi of course 2001 is better, it displays its science etc way better.
Is it a better Adventure movie tho?
You cant really compare that shit
2001 is not sci-fi, it is science fiction, therefore intrinsically better than sci-fi.

stop with this meme

Making a bad comparison to sound cool makes you more of a pseudo intelectual than critiquing the pseudo-intelectual does. Everybody critiques the pseudo-intelectual thinking they aren't it.

This movie really really sucks. If you can even call it a movie.
>>64046758
But is it a flick, film, cinema, or art-house?
Star Wars Episode 1 The Phantom Menace had more heart and soul than 2001.

You're not even trying
>he's comparing 2001 to fucking star wars
>tfw you literally can't identify sci-fi properly

>mfw someone posts this unironically about TFA
>>64046334
Too sterile like the shitty prequels. TFA is superior Used Future.

>He thinks that Stephen Soderbergh and Tarkovsky are the same person
>>64046334
Well it has to be dumbass since Star Wars isn't sci fi
>the best science fiction film of all time is better science fiction than a mediocre installment of a fantasy series set in space
stunning revelation, OP
>>64046334
SW is basically a fantasy soap opera that happens to be set in space.
2001 is sci-fi special effects porn with a simple "wow deep" story about life and shit.
Solaris is the best because it only uses the sci-fi setting as a background for much more, instead of relying on it to tell its story and amaze people with cool shit.
