2001 - Stockholm Syndrome or Masochism? Part 2

Jellybabies and gummibears! Lend me your eyes!

As I mentioned in the end of my previous post, this is where the book explains a lot better than the movie.

That shouldn’t be so hard to figure out, I know, Bison

Anyways… Let’s dig in to the rest of this mind-numbingly long book review.

2001 - Stockholm Syndrome or Masochism? Part 1

Yes, I am finally posting something! Incredible, isn’t it? The project I took upon me didn’t go as fast as I thought, mostly because reading a book doesn’t go as fast as watching a movie. Before I start I recommend new readers go read “A Praised Oddity" Part 1 and Part 2”, because I will refer to it a lot. This will be quite a lot of movie vs. book. And let’s see if I’m developing Stockholm towards it, or is it just pure masochism.

A praised oddity - The Re-View

I am really not looking forward to this.. I know I have to do this, but I keep stalling. Maybe now is a good time to start playing one of those facebook games! Maybe not. I’m afraid when I start looking at this, this will happen:

Anyways.. The show must go on. Let’s push play..

A praised oddity - Initial Viewing

There’s a movie that has gotten a lot of praise, which is mystifying to me. Honestly, it isn’t really that good in my opinion. This movie.. It sucks.

2001: A Space Odyssey, is a movie that just makes me shudder.

I shall do this one in two parts, In the first part I will recap as well as I can how I felt during and after my initial viewing of this “epic”. In the second part, I will review this one, just for you guys.. Okay, I have to see if I’ve changed my mind about it and let’s see if I’ll be more lenient on the movie.

For now, let me try to recap as well as my memory serves me.
