Stanley Kubrick’s Movies Ranked

[@leehidegkuti5109]

Can’t wait for the next video in 2038

[@benjisanderoproductions]

2049*

[@clumpyschlipz7571]

putting spartacus over a clockwork orange is insane

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Yeah, a majority would say that 🤷‍♂️

[@RunningP123456]

Ehhhhhh they're close in my rankings, personally.

[@petespanchos]

I’ve seen Clockwork Orange falling in people’s rankings of Kubrick’s filmography recently. Maybe a symptom of being a part of the Pulp Fiction/Fight Club Film Bro zeitgeist for too long?

[@yousefdiaa]

Kubrick is a genius and 2001 is a flawless masterpiece. Great video!

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Thanks 🙏

[@thegreatstefano]

That photo you sent me of your reaction after watching 2001: ASO is just as iconic as the film itself

[@AlmightyBruce]

13: Fear and Desire 12: Killer’s Kiss 11: Spartacus 10: The Killing 9: Full Metal Jacket 8: Eyes Wide Shut 7: Lolita 6: A Clockwork Orange 5: Barry Lyndon 4: Paths of Glory 3: Dr. Strangelove 2: The Shining 1: 2001: A Space Odyssey

[@pmc8451]

Absolutely fucking bonkers list. Spartacus & Eyes Wide Shut ahead of Barry Lyndon & A Clockwork Orange?

[@kascnef]

If Kubrick were alive he would’ve watched KZbin

[@benjisanderoproductions]

To think there could be an alternate universe out there where he sees this video

[@berghitch]

Hi, Benji. You must not forget that the movie Lolita is based on a novel and the name Humbert Humbert is not an invention by Kubrick, but by the author Vladimir Nabokov.

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Aaah, that actually makes sense since the majority of Kubrick’s films were adapted from books

[@Bctass]

The novel 2001 ASO was actually written​ in conjunction withthescreenplay. And there areseveral . differences. It's worth reading the book just to answer several-but certainly not all- questions about the film @benjisanderoproductions

[@J.T.Miller3000]

I agree with you on fear and desire. I watched it on prime and was shocked how bad the quality was

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Some movies are just best left untouched

[@RamZar50]

- I wouldn’t rank *Full Metal Jacket* so high. The training camp portion is outstanding but not the rest. It’s the same with the first half hour of *Saving Private Ryan* versus the rest. - My favorite Kubrick movie is *The Shining* because I have watched it the most. It’s electric! - *Dr. Strangelove* has the best all time performance by an actor in a movie with Peter Sellers playing three roles. - *Paths of Glory* is one of the greatest anti-war movies ever made along with *Come and See* and *Grave of the Fireflies* which all make you aware of the senselessness of war!

[@CrypticNoir]

Great vid!

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Thanks 🙏

[@zodiac6968]

Don't you feel Full Metal Jacket dips after the drill sergeant opening, same way you spoke about A Clockwork Orange?

[@benjisanderoproductions]

A lot of people say that about FMJ but for me it’s consistently brilliant throughout

[@zodiac6968]

@@benjisanderoproductions It is a great film, here's my top three in order, 1. A Clockwork Orange 2. 2001 A Space Odyssey 3.The Shining

[@danielnuncio4711]

THANK YOU FOR PUTTING FULL METAL JACKET AS HIGH AS YOU DID BECAUSE SAAAAMMMEEE!!! so underrated 🤦‍♂️

[@benjisanderoproductions]

No worries, I wouldn’t say it’s underrated, it’s just when mentioning Kubricks other work, some people tend to rank FMJ not as highly unfortunately

[@sexobscura]

How is it 'underrated' if it's acknowledged as a masterpiece

[@sexobscura]

@@benjisanderoproductions That's a minor 'drawback' of being an auteur, I guess

[@szhaka7251]

His best movie was the Moon landing 💀

[@benjisanderoproductions]

The Cinematography in that movie was on point 👌

[@thepredman9lol266]

Hey I had a similar experience with discovering Kubrick's other films! I think 2001 is beyond words, but I also really liked StrangeLove, Full Metal Jacket, and ESPECIALLY Clockwork Orange. WHY DID YOU DO IT SO DIRTY!?!?! (just kidding I respect your opinion) Great video!

[@benjisanderoproductions]

That’s one thing I realised whist making this video, ranking them is so hard because you have great films all the way down in like 9th, but that just shows the quality of his films

[@keepgrindingup7661]

I just watched Paths of Glory... I can't say enough good things about it

[@RunningP123456]

Wait... what do you think the message if Lolita is?

[@1000000man1]

That's actually Not Kubrick in Eyes Wide Shut. He's Just an extra who happened to look a lot like him. His daughter, Katherina, said that the crew noticed the resemblance on set and Joked about it even then. Kubrick does however have audio cameos in both 2001 and Full Metal Jacket. In 2001 his breath can be heard in the scenes with Dave and Frank in spacesuits and he talks to Pvt. Cowboy over the radio in Full Metal Jacket. Also in the beginning of Lolita, there's an accidental appearance in a dissolve transition where you can Just about see him walking out of frame, at least I think that's him.

[@Bctass]

As long as 2001 is at the top, the placement of others doesn't really matter...much

[@spaceace4387]

I think Dr. Strangelove, 2001 and A Clockwork Orange are my favorites. I do love The Shining and Full Metal Jacket but in both films there are at least a couple of cringy moments (The Wooly Bully scene and the “you gotta leave a trail of breadcrumbs” scene for example). As for the Shining however the UK cut is about 20 minutes shorter and I gotta say I think it’s the better cut. There are two scenes in the International Release that I wish had been left in the UK cut (Dick’s journey back to the Overlook and his introduction) but overall the UK cut is better.

[@Tolstoy111]

Read the novel Lolita. It’s a masterpiece. The names are from the novel.

[@benjisanderoproductions]

In that case, what was the writer smoking when he came up with the name Humbert Humbert?

[@Tolstoy111]

@@benjisanderoproductions The character uses it as a pseudonym. We never learn his real name. It’s written as a first person confession.

[@universome511]

You can play the Music because it's Classical Tracks from hundreds of years ago

[@benjisanderoproductions]

With songs like the Blue Danube over course, but for the Atmospheres song(the song that plays at the start of the film when it is just a black screen for 2 mins), I wasn’t sure at the time

[@HorrorCritical]

My personal Stanley Kubrick ranking 1) Clockwork Orange 2) Eyes Wide Shut 3) Full Metal Jacket 4) The Shining 5) Barry Lyndon 6) 2001 Space Odyssey 7) Dr Strangelove 8) Paths of Glory 9) The Killing 10) Lolita 11) Spartacus 12) Killer’s Kiss 13) Fear and Desire

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Not bad 👍

[@aidenblundell8069]

thought the SAS had kidnapped you for treason due to your words on nativity, glad to know you’re okay 👍🏻

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Good thing I escaped 😏

[@Fernandolunatoro1]

Kubrick is the GOAT!

[@stephenhaynes149]

FMJ in my opinion hasn't aged well - this is the Kubrick film that goes against his perfectionism - the locations for example are so obvious. I could forgive the London streets made up to look like NYC in Eyes Wide Shut - but here, the locations ruin it for me now. However, I loved it when I first saw it!

[@thegreatstefano]

What do you call this at this time of night??

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Upload night 😎

[@MrZackTyler]

1. Paths of Glory 2. Eyes Wide Shut 3. Full Metal Jacket 4. A Clockwork Orange 5. The Shining 6. Barry Lyndon 7. 2001 ( I need to rewatch this) 8. Dr Strangelove 9. Spartacus 10. The Killint 11. Lolita Haven’t seen the other 2

[@clash79]

I'm a huge Kubrick stan, and I definitely agree on the greatness of 2001. Greatest sci-fi movie, if not film period. A little surprised about your ranking of FMJ, though. I think Paths of Glory is easily better...but Apocalypse Now is the greatest war movie of all time. Had Kubrick made it, I'd probably put it second on this list. Maybe in a dead heat with Dr. Strangelove, a movie that is curiously completely of it's time, and way ahead of it's time. I don't foresee a future in where it's not completely relevant to current world events

[@MarkusHorror]

My Kubrick Top 5: 2001 - Clockwork Orange - Shining - Dr. Strangelove - Path of Glory.

[@matsis01]

8:07 excuse me sir you put my photo in your video

[@benjisanderoproductions]

You had me for a minute there 😮‍💨

[@mjelves]

it wasn't a manor, and it wasn't abandoned. It was a hotel that was closed for the winter. Are you sure you watched the film?

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Yeaaaah, probably should’ve re-read my script and double checked

[@baldee2397]

In my opinion clockwork orange is his best work

[@jamestoney6108]

To quote Willie from the Simpsons the shinning

[@gianniskyr1312]

I disagree with many of your rankings but 2001 is by far the greatest

[@benjisanderoproductions]

That’s fair 👍

[@PrinceAliTheGreatest]

I’d say my top three are Full Metal Jacket, A Clockwork Orange, and Lolita (Dr. Strangelove is a deadly close third.)

[@PrinceAliTheGreatest]

Also, fair list.

[@benjisanderoproductions]

Thanks 🙏 that’s the crazy part with Kubrick’s films, a majority of them can be anyones favourite’s, shows how much quality is in each one

[@PrinceAliTheGreatest]

@@benjisanderoproductions Very true. I remember a professor describing Kubrick’s films to me like paintings or sculpture. Objectively well made and iconic, even if you don’t like or don’t understand them, and really meant to be critical of instead of sit back and relax film.

[@benjisanderoproductions]

@PrinceAliTheGreatest he couldn’t have said it better

[@adtastic1533]

I literally cant take you seriously as a human being if you think Eyes Wide Shut is a better film than Barry Lyndon. 1. Barry Lyndon 2. 2001 3. Clockwork Orange 4. Shining 5. Full Metal Jacket 6. Spartacus 7,8,~~~~ etc

chief cubrock was better than scorsayzee, quibi ahead of it's time, film dead. big tears much sad
