# It's a Vietnam war movie, filmed entirely in England
It's not actually as good as its mound of memorable quotes and iconic images would suggest

# was a film extra in Velvet Goldmine
a load of us dressed in black uniforms carrying rifles on Croydon High street, supposed to be New York. Old dear walks up "oooh, are you filming ?" one of the extras replies "No love, it's a bomb scare. You better move along". Old dear toddles off.

# I think it's alright, but not Kubrick's best.
I definitely couldn't sit and watch it all in one go; I tend to lose interest after a bit.

Of course, that's just me. I mean, I can sit through 2001 A Space Odyssey, right to the very end.

# My favourite Kubrick picture is Barry Lyndon
Never met anyone who agrees with me on this though. Come to think of it, I've met bloody few people who've even seen or heard of it.

I've never heard of it either :S I'll have to hunt it down.

# It has an incredibly languid pace, and its 3hrs long
but very rewarding, especially on repeated viewings

# saw it at the pictures recently
...absolutely beautiful to look at (and listen to), some fantastic scenes, but I found my mind wandering a bit. Maybe I'm a philistine.

# I'm not usually very good with long, slow-paced films
I don't have a great attention span. But Barry Lyndon just seems to hypnotize me with its beauty.

# Yeah, it was extremely lovely to look at
and I could watch it again, for that reason. I loved Tree of Life, too, which was also pretty, but veeeery slow.

# Hello random trivia lurker.
Stick around. There's some nibbles somewhere, but I think atomic's been "handling" them.

# Hello random trivia lurker
Stick around. You might also find you enjoy putting your next snippet of trivia onto a picture of a smug man enjoying a croissant in the middle of a brutal jungle battle.

# Gameplay
The gameplay of the series is characteristic of run and gun games: large numbers of enemies and a player character with extremely powerful weapons. In most run and guns, contact with an enemy leads to annihilation. In this series, however, contact results in the opportunity to perform a melee attack and the opportunity for the enemy to perform a melee attack of his own if he has one. The player's melee attack is also much stronger than most shots. This leads to the ability for the player to run in and use melee attacks to take down a number of troops, and the ability to quickly defeat enemies that can take plenty of damage like the mummies in Full Metal Jacket 2.
