2001 A Space Odyssey is quite possibly the most boring film ever made.... the only film that comes close to it is the original version of Solaris

Words are often used incorrectly. Another example of two words people often confuse are they're and their. The first is to be used when two are more people are in the act of doing something. The second is the possessive form of the word. It's quite annoying when people do this but I remain quiet because I don't want to be perceived as rude.
