What a weird movie and definitely too artsy for my taste. I have a Kubrick collection at home and I am trying to watch them all although he's tough for me to appreciate. There is a tv commerical about GPS that makes a reference to HAL and its slow voice that says 'Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that'. HA I get the reference in the commercial! I was so proud of myself!
My favorite shot in this movie was the transition from the monkey time period to the 2001 time period. That was simple but profound and I think you have to watch this movie if only for that one scene. Crazy that in the 60's, ppl thought that there would be so many more advancements in technology by 2001. Alas, we did not meet their expectations...
The extended musical score at the beginning of this movie reminds me of the long musical score at the beginning of "Lawrence of Arabia". Wonder what that adds to the film. Any thoughts?
Memorable quote: I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.
Hahahaha JESS I FOUND YOUUUUU!!!
