I like it, but Dr. Strangelove will always be Kubrick's best imo.
I think I like 2001 b/c I've always liked movies that are EXTREMELY slow (I'm a big Jim Jarmusch fan) and where nothing really happens. I think it's refreshing to run across a movie that doesn't cater to, what I refer to as, "the Nintendo Generation" (not that 2001 wasn't made in 1968 or anything). to me it reflects a reckless, snotty, kinda "fuck you" attitude on the part of the filmmaker. and I like that.
