Additional points :

  1. On a personal level(since the question is also slightly subjective), I have watched The Shining & Full Metal Jacket, and they are among my favorite films ever.

  2. Kubrick often picked very controversial & complex stories which others found too difficult to make a movie on. eg. - Lolita & Clock work orange.

  3. Check AFI's 100 years 100 films/thrills/..., Kubrick's films are all over these.

Now you've got to admit, there was something about this guy.
