spoco2says...Oh, I'm still watching, and it's interesting, but man the MIDI music is horrendous.
Also the film critics are so full of shit, my god they sound like pretentious fools.
But all the special effects and tech guys are interesting.
[edit] Ok, now I just had that female critic start talking about Dave dismantling HAL as a rape... urgh, she must be a joy at parties
spoco2says...And in the end. I am one of those people that finds 2001 to be an unsatisfying movie. It has some awesome moments, some iconic shots and scenes, but overall it is a bit rubbish in it's conclusion.
From listening to Arthur C Clark, it would seem that's because they didn't have a good story to begin with, and I think it shows. It seemed to be a case of 'we've got these ideas that'd be good to make a movie out of'... and they just went ahead with making that movie before actually creating a workable narrative from those ideas.

Love 2001. At least until the acid trip.
critical_dsays...Honestly, I never understood the ending until I learned how others interpreted it.

Really interesting - half-way through.
