I've never seen anyone else masturbate on screen for hours on end and been so bored to tears!

Wait is that supposed to be me? I'm really just asking what do you think makes him bad.

And I really am saying "I've never seen anyone else masturbate on screen for hours on end and been so bored to tears!" is why I don't like Kubrick!

He has so many scenes crafted to be iconic, all wrapped up in the most godawful self-indulgent boringness. Ever been stuck in an hours long "This could have been an email" meeting where the smart guy running it is insufferably smug about the whole thing? That's the exact same feeling I get watching Kubrick.
