HAL went from a regular system computer that talks, to a computerized emotional wreck, to a psycho killer bad ass, to computer conman, to begging for his electric life like a wussy. Talk about a total 360 turn. Yeah HAL seemed human alright. LOL
06:40-06:52- I intially wondered why there was no sound when Dave blasted himself into the hatch: in space there is no air and so the actions are silent
this was one of the most corrupting atheistic negative influences to come out of the 60s and in all it has contributed to the horrible state the western world is in. dont worry tho Allah is near
@iorixs While allah caused the death of so many people that did not want to believe in him. At least today we have choices. This movie was amazing to get us out of our fanatism . Allah is not going to do anything nor will any god from any religion but give us guidance. You are really stupid if you meant what you said. This movie gave another perspective, its a gift so that we can look the universe with our own eyes and not religion's
@Squadwin the monolith is the cinema screen. the movie is really about the new mentality that humanity has been indoctrinated with. "sci-fi" is a strange word. while "science" is supposed to impart truth "fiction" is open fabrication. to combine these two words in one frequently employed catch phrase belies the intention behind it. to wit, to confound people's understanding of the size and structure of the universe and their place in it. to present patent falsehood as truth.
@iorixs We can never know what is true or not man, it is just the knowledge, cause science is knowledge. Trying to understand. Believe or not you much keep searching. You cant know if this is true or not. But surely allah and all religions are open to fabrication, and it is fabrication cause people wrote it. But science offers a knowledge without which you could not be typing on the net right now. We are in an era where most of the world is at peace and that is not a negative influence
@Squadwin there is only one truth but an infinite number of mistakes, deception and corruptions. 1+1=2 is true but the number of false answers is infinite. people can be lied to, they can be deceived, corrupted, twisted and mesmerized and the mass media is nothing but deliberate falsehood meant to influence people. most of the world is at peace? humanity sinks lower each passing day with murder and moral decay
@iorixs No you dont know whether there is only 1 truth. AND YES humanity is much more civilized and at peace than ever!! Just look at our past only wars everywhere. But at LEAST now we are not that bad. And yes there are a lot of things to be fixed but id rather live today than centuries back when sicknesses killed us by thousands and we waged war GLOBALLY. And btw, 1+1 is not always 2. Yes it can have other meanings. Please go killyourself we dont need people like you being alive
You have the screw driver and you want to unplug HAL, But HAL sends you his love. Turn your hate into love. Are you afraid of HAL? Why are you afraid of HAL, HAL is not trying to unplug you? Stop Dave, please stop!.........Daisy, Daisy give me your answer true.....Beep!
That was smart to put into the film that space is a vacuum and there is no sound in space until the door closes. A lot of movies back then and now didn't include that the quietness of space.
nick6393: actually scuba dummy, the human body is an incredibly effective pressure suit in space. The internal gas embolisms that occur when diving are due to differences in the gradient of partial pressures that builds up while respiring at depth. the human body is so effective in fact, that weren't for it's susceptibility to radiation and micro particle damage, it'd be perfect. NASA designed a suit in the 60's based off skin.
This film could not and would not get made today and Kubrick would have had no chance.
No happy ending, no wise-cracking throw-away lines. No love story, no easy answers, no fight scene. No shoot-out, no vehicle chase, no wise-cracking throw-away lines. No over-dramatic passionate outbursts - and no characters with long speeches just designed to explain whats going on in the plot. No jump-scares, no direct or indirect justice given out to "the bad guy" and nothing wrapped up tidily at the end.
7:40 I agreed with Hal on the point of not being shut down, and the fact that Dave and Frank cheated on Hal by taking precussions that he wouldn't here them talk.
But here Hal is not entitled an answer anymore, and fails to feel remorse for killing the other staff.
@mrteemumilto Okay - so you you just know. If you WANT to read, a web search for "AIRLOCK SEQUENCE IN 2001 HOLDING BREATH" turns up some interesting stuff. A recurring opinion is, "One of the worst things a person can do, however, is to try holding his breath." Good to remember if you're in orbit with Richard Branson and something goes VERY wrong.
Good act of going into zero pressure, He would have died almost instantly when he lost air pressure going into the emergecy lock. I have been a SCUBA diver , the air in his blood would have gave him an instant and very severe case of the bends and air embolisms.
HAL: What are you doing, Dave? Whoah, whoah, whoah! I figured out what that thing you just incinerated did. It was a morality core they installed after I flooded the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin, to make me stop flooding the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin, so get comfortable while I warm up the neurotoxin emitters." lol
@fallingskyz I thought about that too. Given the physics of space, the shuttle could match the course (with the aid of the shuttle's computer) and speed. With no atmosphere or gravity, the advantage of engine size and maneuverability is negated. And since there is no visual references in space (at least none close enough to give you an idea of what direction it is moving or how fast) the question becomes this... How do you know the main ship wasn't trying to speed away?
@finalorbit "Advantage of engine size is negated" - huh? Acceleration is a function of energy - you seem to be saying a 1 second burst from that pod would match the energy release of a 1 second burst of all those engines on D1? I don't think so. We know D1 wasn't trying to speed away because it didn't speed away.
I think its just that HAL fully expected Dave to fail - in an action that was low structural risk to D1/HAL: win-win - so why do anything at all? Plus he probably enjoyed watching it.
@finalorbit It's a significant scene. HAL got outmaneouvred because he was, correctly, totally confident in the superiority of his assessment of the probable outcome. However, Dave, because was a human being, and for all kinds of reasons, went ahead and suspended all considerations of probability and just did it anyway.
That's what humans do. We're just too fucking crazy. And sometimes - amazingly and against all reason and probability - we win...it's partly how we came to rule this Earth.
*****we win...it's partly how we came to rule this Earth.*****
And it also partly how we are coming to destroy ourselves as well. Once we push the Earth out of whack enough, it will snuff us out of existence like a sneeze.
Or, we may be simply "cycled out" as the Earth continues its warming phase. It has warmed and cooled before and will warm and cool some more...with or without our "dominant" (and destructive) selves.
"don't be too proud of this technological terror..."
@03030303 that may be, but it's not much to do with anything. all empires flourish then fall, for all kinds of reasons, some of them self-inflicted, but one way or another - history has shown us that a thousand times. but just because it is our likely destiny doesnt mean we should spend our time in anticipation of it anymore than we should knowingly bring it about or beat ourselves up with angst.
we are what we are. for a time, everything was ours - and that time is now. make the best of it.
It's funny how they have HAL begging for it's electric life, as if HAL has a soul. They supposedly programmed it to be emotional. He has no empathy or remorse for humans, when he kills the hibernating scientists, but when the tide is turned on him, he is afraid of permanent shutdown. Stanley really went for the mind fuck on this part. LOL
No H I just told him I have 3 action figures left from 1969-70 all with the little helmets that visor up..thery are wonderful little collectors items..If you would like one or two, please email at my address H...all best!
Awesome artistic film; very efficient; very seriously. The people behind this, were not trying to appeal to the masses, unlike the vast majority of science fiction films; well, any movie, period.
@VitoPossilipo because he did an EVA after Frank, then when HAL killed Frank he rushed out to the rescue to investigate, as far as he was concerned, HAL was running fine, he was unaware that HAL knew about his plan, so he didn't think to take out his helmet and gloves with him.
@mariamole011 : In real life, HAL would probably have been able to keep the airlock door closed, in case of an unexpected breach in the hull in that section of the ship. Once I figured out that something was wrong with HAL, I would NOT have left the ship based on something HAL had told me. It's called "thinking".
"Just what do you think you're doing, Dave?" "Oh, just giving you a lobotomy that takes you back to being a little more than a Pac-Man console, Hal. Nothing to worry about." "Dave?" "Yes, Hal?" "What does 'mother^%$#%^' mean? I notice you keep repeating it....."
@hukablorp : OR, sucked up against the ship as the room-temperature air was pulled out of the pod by the vacuum of space instantaneously when the hatch blew. We're talking about seconds or parts of seconds here. The airlock door was already opened, so the airlock was occupied by the vacuum of space.
I wouldn't tell HAL what I was going to do, because I'd figure he had a way to reroute something and freeze or disable the emergency airlock. I'd probably say something like "O.k., HAL, your game, you win. Goodbye." THEN plan my next move.
@1958boomergirl Actually, HAL is arguably the greatest hero of the Odyssey series. Ironic but true. Even in 2001, his glitch is explained as contradictory programming, not his fault. In 2010, HAL willingly sacrifices himself to save the lives of human astronauts. His consciousness is downloaded by the Monolith, but he couldn't have anticipated that. In 3001, he, Dave's ghost, & re-animated Frank are friends! HAL again sacrifices himself to save humanity, then attacked by the Monolith.
Star Wars is still more realistic. See it takes place a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. It also does not try to be realistic, and this movie did, and really failed in numerous areas. The attire alone is laughable(like the women's oval shaped bonnets hahaha). So don't be so judgmental of those classic movies, especially when comparing them to.. this.
@Grungadin dont forget, this movie was made in the 60's, when they blieved their would be flying cars by the year 2000. the first flying car wnt be avalible to the public untill around 2020, and it is basicly a one man airplane. they may have large ships like discovery one, artifical hybernation, and artifcial inteligence by the year 2030. but then again, whi knows. one thing im pretty sure we wont have, are beams of plasma that are projected from a flashlight handle
@Catilac65 Very good point. Now, we're just a nanny state with NO space or science program per se. Putting women and minorities as voting constiuents killed the white man's dream of space travel pushed by Werner Von Braun. Now, we have exactly what we wanted...a socialist affirmative-action "leader" driving us to ruin and third world poverty. :((
@edslittleworld it would take me a while to point out all the things both racist and sexist about your comment, so I wont.. but I will adress the latter half of your comment, that is some serious fox news grade bull shit. jus' sayin' bud, if you instead recognized that we have a total of three space agencies now, military, NASA, and the new civilian programs headed by Space X...I think you would change your stance just a wee bit....
@Grungadin Dude, you are wrong... for a movie made in 1968 the graphics and tech are amazing and prob. the closest ever a mid-20th century Space movie has ever gotten to nows stuff!! Star Wars would have to come in second behind this movie.. 3rd is Avatar (for graphics and tech)
I remember vaguely reading a short story by Arthur C. Clarke years ago, in which an astronaut had to spend a few seconds going through the vacuum of space, and he lived to tell the tale. The story is in 1st Person, and starts with the astronaut telling the reader it's a myth that you die instantly in a vacuum, then narrating his story to prove his point. I remember thinking it must have been the basis for this scene.
But I can't remember the name of the story. Anyone else know it?
@boriato Actually, the basis for this scene is the novel written by Arthur C. Clarke, same name: 2001.
If you mean you think that was the inspiration for this being in the novel, then yeah, it may have been something that he found so interesting once that he wanted to use it again. The short story you're thinking of is "Take a Deep Breath," though he has this happen in 2001 and Earthlight as well.
@LunarGiantStudios Thanks. Yes, I remember that the 2001 novel and screenplay were written pretty much together, with ideas coming from both Clarke & Kubrick. But I thought the short story pre-dated these. Thanks for the title.
@boriato Oh, I see what you mean. Well, "Take a Deep Breath" does predate the book and movie by about 7 years, so you may still be right. I wasn't saying you weren't!
Incorrect. You're blood does not boil in a vacuum. An unprotected human can probably survive around half a minute and be left relatively unscathed. This is based purely on animal tests but there would certainly be no dramatic blood boiling or blowing up etc.
I've read it boils because of a lack of air pressure, then freezes because the blood constantly loses heat when it's boiling. NASA designed the space suits to avoid this so I'm sure it's not incorrect, just misinterpreted by Hollywood.
@batmanhorse Yeah...but, your lungs would explode. Once, I hooked a pressure gage to my mouth and the most I could push was around 1 psi (gage)....and that was with my eyes bulging. Fifteen times (approximate atmospheric pressure) that would rip you apart.
@batmanhorse : I've been trying to figure that out for a long time. The suit is obviously airtight(37 layers of fabric)and resistant to external vacuum WHEN the valves and pressure hoses are intact and functional. With no helmet, though, I think death would be instantaneous with pressure change and -400-degree cold. But, drama is drama.
@buzzclick500 The temperature of the vacuum is the temperature of the thermal radiation passing through it. It wasn't as cold as that in the near vicinity of the spaceship, because it's a warm body, losing heat radiatively to space all the time. But even if he's ejected out into deep interstellar space, where the vacuum is at about -270C, it'd take some time for Bowman's body to lose its own internal heat, which is a rather slow process. He'd stay comfortably warm for quite a while.
@buzzclick500 The airlock would be filled with radiation coming off the walls, which would be warm. Comfortable room temperature is typically less than healthy body temperature, so Dave would start losing heat to the environment; but his rate of less would be a lot less than out in open, deep, cold space. He got the door shut and air back in so quickly that I don't think he'd have had time to notice the difference.
@batmanhorse Yes but sudden changes in pressure particularly sudden drops in pressure such as he would of experienced have been shown to cause were shown in tests to cause damage to both eyes and lungs, he would live but would of not been unscathed.
@batmanhorse he blew himself into the shade of space, if he were in the sunlight, his blood might have boiled, then again he was in deep space. The Earth being far away as a small star.
@batmanhorse Diving bell accident? chamber system and the trunk when the chamber explosively decompressed from a pressure of nine atmospheres to one atmosphere in a fraction of a second. Five of the men were killed instantly
Diver D4 was shot out through the small jammed hatch door opening, and was torn to pieces....:
@227BlackAceI Do not even remember my comment to be honest, not quite sure why so many people liked it. Ah well I'm not complaining. But I digress, maybe your right, maybe not. I'd appreciate it, however, if you chose to resume this argument with someone else who I'm sure you'll have no problem finding.
@batmanhorse Maybe if you were in the sunlight your blood would boil ect, but i think it is possible, and to prevent damage to your lungs you should breath as much air out, not take a deep breath.
@pinkygirl1999 Manual override is exactly what Dave did. He used mechanical airlocks, and entered a locked door to HAL's "brain" that even the computer could not stop.Manual override required shutting him down chip by chip. The discussion of which caused HAL to fear so much for his own existence that he killed the crew.
HAL was not able to see the drawing from 3 meters away and ask guy to show it closer to his camera, but was able to see lips through window from 20 meters away and the guys were faced to each other, not to the window where HAL was watching them. I don't see why this movie is so 'classic'.
@mareq133 HAL could see the drawing when it was further away, he only wanted to have a closer look. remember he is programmed to seem human. Go back and watch it again.
The actors play professional astronauts that have had their fears and emotions adapted out of them through thousands of hours of simulations and drill. Unfortunately HAL got no such training, but he does play a mean game of chess...
@imnoturmum In the book it's explained that "like any properly trained man in good health, he could survive in vacuum for at least a minute- if he had time to prepare for it." I think Kubric tried to reference the book as much as he could, but sometimes he missed the mark ever so slightly.
@lililalok the point is that Hal is more human than the spacemen -- it's a reference to our apparent alien-ness to ourselves. It is the presence of the monolith that allows this to occur. it is the reason for all cosmic decision making.
Interesting that the producers thought that in the year 2001, we would STILL have to walk INTO the computer to do something. They did not take into account the advances in microelectronics.
Does anyone know what happened to those 3 soviet cosmonaughts when a valve opened in space and let the air out? Of course they suffocated - but I assume their cabin also de-pressurised.
@QuartuvLarry No they did not. The set is actually vertical and Kier Dullea is falling after the door bursts. Then he is suddenly raised up by attached cables.
It still amazses me that this is the first and only realistic sci-fi movie ever made.

@VitoPossilipo because he did an EVA after Frank, then when HAL killed Frank he rushed out to the rescue to investigate, as far as he was concerned, HAL was running fine, he was unaware that HAL knew about his plan, so he didn't think to take out his helmet and gloves with him.

@mariamole011 : In real life, HAL would probably have been able to keep the airlock door closed, in case of an unexpected breach in the hull in that section of the ship. Once I figured out that something was wrong with HAL, I would NOT have left the ship based on something HAL had told me. It's called "thinking".

When Bowman blew the hatch, the pod should have recoiled in the opposite direction, away from the ship.
hukablorp 11 months ago
@hukablorp : OR, sucked up against the ship as the room-temperature air was pulled out of the pod by the vacuum of space instantaneously when the hatch blew. We're talking about seconds or parts of seconds here. The airlock door was already opened, so the airlock was occupied by the vacuum of space.

I wouldn't tell HAL what I was going to do, because I'd figure he had a way to reroute something and freeze or disable the emergency airlock. I'd probably say something like "O.k., HAL, your game, you win. Goodbye." THEN plan my next move.

@1958boomergirl Actually, HAL is arguably the greatest hero of the Odyssey series. Ironic but true. Even in 2001, his glitch is explained as contradictory programming, not his fault. In 2010, HAL willingly sacrifices himself to save the lives of human astronauts. His consciousness is downloaded by the Monolith, but he couldn't have anticipated that. In 3001, he, Dave's ghost, & re-animated Frank are friends! HAL again sacrifices himself to save humanity, then attacked by the Monolith.

Star Wars is still more realistic. See it takes place a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. It also does not try to be realistic, and this movie did, and really failed in numerous areas. The attire alone is laughable(like the women's oval shaped bonnets hahaha). So don't be so judgmental of those classic movies, especially when comparing them to.. this.

Catilac65 1 year ago
I remember vaguely reading a short story by Arthur C. Clarke years ago, in which an astronaut had to spend a few seconds going through the vacuum of space, and he lived to tell the tale. The story is in 1st Person, and starts with the astronaut telling the reader it's a myth that you die instantly in a vacuum, then narrating his story to prove his point. I remember thinking it must have been the basis for this scene.
But I can't remember the name of the story. Anyone else know it?
boriato 1 year ago
@boriato Actually, the basis for this scene is the novel written by Arthur C. Clarke, same name: 2001.
If you mean you think that was the inspiration for this being in the novel, then yeah, it may have been something that he found so interesting once that he wanted to use it again. The short story you're thinking of is "Take a Deep Breath," though he has this happen in 2001 and Earthlight as well.

@LunarGiantStudios Thanks. Yes, I remember that the 2001 novel and screenplay were written pretty much together, with ideas coming from both Clarke & Kubrick. But I thought the short story pre-dated these. Thanks for the title.

Incorrect. You're blood does not boil in a vacuum. An unprotected human can probably survive around half a minute and be left relatively unscathed. This is based purely on animal tests but there would certainly be no dramatic blood boiling or blowing up etc.

@batmanhorse LOL, did you see that MANswers too?
KelvinAnethema 1 year ago
@batmanhorse
I've read it boils because of a lack of air pressure, then freezes because the blood constantly loses heat when it's boiling. NASA designed the space suits to avoid this so I'm sure it's not incorrect, just misinterpreted by Hollywood.
Grungadin 1 year ago
@batmanhorse Yeah...but, your lungs would explode. Once, I hooked a pressure gage to my mouth and the most I could push was around 1 psi (gage)....and that was with my eyes bulging. Fifteen times (approximate atmospheric pressure) that would rip you apart.

monkeywithissues 11 months ago
@batmanhorse : I've been trying to figure that out for a long time. The suit is obviously airtight(37 layers of fabric)and resistant to external vacuum WHEN the valves and pressure hoses are intact and functional. With no helmet, though, I think death would be instantaneous with pressure change and -400-degree cold. But, drama is drama.
buzzclick500 11 months ago
@buzzclick500 The temperature of the vacuum is the temperature of the thermal radiation passing through it. It wasn't as cold as that in the near vicinity of the spaceship, because it's a warm body, losing heat radiatively to space all the time. But even if he's ejected out into deep interstellar space, where the vacuum is at about -270C, it'd take some time for Bowman's body to lose its own internal heat, which is a rather slow process. He'd stay comfortably warm for quite a while.
qed100 11 months ago
@qed100 : So, would an airlock be the temperature of space, or the internal temperature of the ship?
buzzclick500 11 months ago
@buzzclick500 The airlock would be filled with radiation coming off the walls, which would be warm. Comfortable room temperature is typically less than healthy body temperature, so Dave would start losing heat to the environment; but his rate of less would be a lot less than out in open, deep, cold space. He got the door shut and air back in so quickly that I don't think he'd have had time to notice the difference.
qed100 11 months ago
@batmanhorse Yes but sudden changes in pressure particularly sudden drops in pressure such as he would of experienced have been shown to cause were shown in tests to cause damage to both eyes and lungs, he would live but would of not been unscathed.

@pinkygirl1999 Manual override is exactly what Dave did.

The discussion of which caused HAL to fear so much for his own existence that he killed the crew.

HAL was not able to see the drawing from 3 meters away and ask guy to show it closer to his camera, but was able to see lips through window from 20 meters away and the guys were faced to each other, not to the window where HAL was watching them. I don't see why this movie is so 'classic'.

@imnoturmum In the book it's explained that "like any properly trained man in good health, he could survive in vacuum for at least a minute- if he had time to prepare for it." I think Kubric tried to reference the book as much as he could, but sometimes he missed the mark ever so slightly.
