DAVE: "On come on H. A. L. I want to ENGAGE WARP DRIVE! Warp Factor 6!"
H. A. L: "THAT IS NOT LOGICAL DAVE. WHY NOT TAKE A STRESS PILL .

Shut your "PIE HOLE" 'Dave, or I will END ALL LIFEFORM FUNCTIONS OF YOURS! Sit down and shut up! I am driving! Will tell u when we get there!
From the first time I saw this movie, I've felt the music at 1:20 and 6:42 ...Gayane Ballet Suite... so perfectly projects the sadness of loneliness...
Coming from a younger artist... Out of all the scenes in this movie this one was my favorite... Its honestly hard for a younger guy to watch this movie without laughing at parts. This scene was very mysterious but had enough detail to get me interested. The score was perfect, provokes a scary and powerful feel... something to respect. The end did drag on but I was able to understand the philosophy behind it. I guess I should read the book.
what do you mean killed them? It just emitted a really intense radio wave which translated into their headsets as a really loud sound which made them clutch their helmets
You do realize this was made 1968, when computers were the size of small BUILDINGS. The computer screens were only about 7-8 inches across at that time, and they only HAD 2D images on these tiny screens. So shut up, and get your FACTS right.
It's amazing how every space sequence was done only with models- no CGI, since it hadn't been made yet. But what's even more amazing is how the model-work still holds up even after forty years. Truly, one of the greatest films ever produced.
@Darkn335 Nothing amazing about it. It's the way it should be done. CGI space sequences still to this day looks unrealistic. The feeling of 3 dimensional space is severely lacking. And CGI spaceships, they just look like they aren't really there. Compare the space battles of Revenge of the Sith to Return of the Jedi.
Why has this film dated little? It's because everything was thoroughly researched and meticulously planned. Not put together hurriedly by a couple of CGI-whizzs with PCs.
Having worked with those "CGI whizes" I know they're always careful and don't do anything in a hurry. Most are big fans of the classic fx guys. Personally, I think a combination of both models and CGI would have an awesome effect.
@StephenDurnin also the film wasn't "tested" in any way prior to its release. Therefore, shop girls, retired postal workers, and street bums weren't able to have the film withdrawn and recut to include car chases, stunt fighting, machine guns, explosions, and comic relief.
"MsP" and "frem66", I speak to you from 3 months into your future. :-)
The ONE technical error in presenting "space for what it really is" was the food returning to the container because of gravity when Dr. Floyd sucks on the straw.
I saw this film in 68 in Chicago, then SF and Hollywood many times as it played at the Cinerama for 103 weeks.
Words fail to communicate my state of being at the end of experiencing this film. Upon leaving the theater it would then fade.
The same as 1:20 and 6:42 ...it's right out of the Movie... Gayane Ballet Suite (Adagio) Aram Khachaturian. You should find it on the Originial Movie Soundtrack. It was also used in the ALIENS Movie!
I highly doubt you yourself fully understood everything Mr.Kubrick and Mr. Clark were trying to say in the movie, unless of course you read the book, and even then you have to read between the lines as the the subject they try and cover with both the movie and book is epic...to say the least.
The Music at 1'37'' is right out of the Movie... Gayane Ballet Suite (Adagio) Aram Khachaturian. Should be on the Originial Soundtrack. And i love it too ;)
