I said "Not liking 2001 doesn't make you a dolt- calling it a "P.O.S" does."But since your original post put the film, in your considered view, towards a piece of shit, that would put your view towards doltishness. Just as your view would put my opinion towards liking a piece of shit.
Clearly, you are not a dolt, neither am I. I would hope that discussions about film would not lead to films being characterzed as pieces of shit or not pieces of shit, or even approaching pieces of shit, for that clearly is the domain of dolts.
I doubt that a search of the archives here would uncover a musical work being described as a piece of shit.
I doubt a search of the web would uncover much in the way of "pieces of shit" describing anything but pieces of shit.
Why 2001 is singled out for this wonderful phrase is insulting- it's an interesting film to some, unremarkable to others.
