What is it that the ambassador pulls out at the very end of the film; before total destruction?

I dunno maybe a renditon of "I want Candy" by~"The Strangeloves. LOL

its a pocket watch with a spy camera in it.

Diva is right. It is a spy camera. After all that hullabaloo over letting a Russian into the war room, he takes the opportunity to take spy photos (even though they're now useless).

Hilarious to watch. Boring to describe.

Christ, what a great movie.

Have to agree it's a graet movie in it's own right but the scene with the Russian ambassador with the spy camera was pointess I wonder why Kubrick left that scene in?

Pointless? I think it just further reinforces the level of insanity the two sides had reached during the cold war. Even after they had just managed to "destroy" the world, they were still fighting.

Yeah, the scene isn't pointless, what the guy's doing is pointless. Which is... well... the point.

Guess you missed the point.....

there is also a huge commotion earlier from Scott about letting the russian into the room (he'll see the big board!) and at one point i belief Scott does claim he was taking a picture or something. the situation is defused and the end shows that he was spying.

OMFG what a coincidence I just watched this film for the first time last night! What an incredibly boring, retarded and outright stupid ass movie this was!! Damn the Koobster cooked up a clunker with this one. Goin through my Kooby box set right now...just finished 2001...see my other thread for questions/impressions. Can wait to get to The Shining Oh and I totally skipped over Lolita! looks outright old and dumb! Black and white movies = meh.

I pity you.

So, do young people who haven't lived through the Cold War just not get this movie?

I.e. The Nintendo Generation vs. Strangelove?

Black and white movies = meh

Black and green movies = feh

Green and yellow movies = WORD!

Fret not, this joker is not representative of all youngsters. I'm 19, and to paraphrase Mariel Hemingway in Manhattan, I am aware of cultural events pre-Mario.

Dr. Strangelove is a riot, btw. And I actually just rewatched Lolita today, a more underrated comedy, Isamu, please don't let the black and white put you off - some movies look even better that way.

"Koobster"? "Kooby"?

Show some respect man! The Koobmiester must be spinning in his grave.

not all of the nintendo generation need mindless movies to entertain them

xXx > Dr Stranglelove

Dr Stanglelove was da bomb, beoytch

you're joking right?

No. Why would I be?

because its so stupid. no offense.

Your adjectives definitely describe your post and maybe something else...
