2001 Space Odyssey is the 2nd-most boring movie ever made

Skywatcher linked the Thread from a year ago. I’ll just quote my post from that Thread:

I’ve watched it many times over the years.
I’d say I have always appreciated it and have always respected its place in cinema history.

I watched it most recently a few months ago and for the very first time I loved it.
This was probably my 7th or 8th viewing over about 20 years and, for the very first time, I loved it. Something finally just clicked for me. The pacing, the interconnectedness of the music with the visuals, the beautiful silences, the balance and juxtaposition of the mundane and the awe-inspiring …it all just clicked for me.

After 7 or 8 viewings over the course of 20 years.
