Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you?
MarxMadness@lemmygrad.ml 1 month agoWe’d had Star Trek for two years by that point. It really was not that groundbreaking.
Star Wars came out 9 years after 2001. The visuals absolutely were groundbreaking – they still hold up, and look better than all but a handful of space movies that came out before about the 90s.
Your point with the pacing is fair, but I think about half that is an artifact of the time or a byproduct of watching it on a couch with a smartphone instead of in a theater.
