My God, it's full of stars!

[44excalibur]

The given name of the monolith was not "Tycho Monolith." It's name in both the novel and the first movie was "Tycho Magnetic Anomaly" or TMA-1. If you look carefully at the scene in '2001: A Space Odyssey' where Dr. Heywood Floyd is traveling in the moon bus to the monolith site, he is looking at a topographical photo of the area where the monolith was found, and the name TMA-1 appears in the corner of the photo.

[PenguinFury]

David Bowman is my own personal hero. I have never envied any character more.

[GodIsACosmicAsshole]

@PenguinFury I've never pissed in my bed more because of any other character.

[GodIsACosmicAsshole]

THE CREEPIEST VOICE IN MOVIE HISTORY!

David Bowman gave me TERRIBLE nightmares as a child.

Today, however, I really appreciate this movie for its intelligence.

[FrozenFourthSeason]

One of the very few times that movie > book

[thorns2345]

@FrozenFourthSeason I'd have to politely disagree, completely. I feel that the 2010 movie was a huge letdown, I felt borderline embarrassed watching it. I consider the book my hands down favorite of the series, and perhaps favorite sci fi book ever, so maybe my standards were very high to begin with.

There is no way that the movie is better than the book though, it's not even close. I'll have to watch it again with a more open mind, but still..

[llsrx]

You spelt Lagrange wrong. As chairman of the National Council of Astronautics, I would have expected you to know that.

[Mr1234odell]

Sorry accidently pressed flag I loved it

[tdrewman]

I dont remember him saying that in the first movie.

[willydadog]

@tdrewman It was in the book.

[tdrewman]

@willydadog I read the book in 1982, kind of hard to remember that. Thanks...

[mptyyegdlc]

@tdrewman Because he didn't say it in the movie... although he DID say it in the first novel 2001: A Space Oddyssey by A.C. Clarke.

[BabakoSen]

Those stars aren't boring if you know their individual quirks. Perhaps one is a pulsating variable, perhaps another is rotating so fast it's oblate, maybe this one is a triple-star system, maybe that one is a compact stellar remnant that's closer than you think, maybe that other has planets...?

My god, the universe is full of stars

[open1337]

Well....they need to make 2061 and 3001

[hadlab]

@open1337 2061 made no sense at all and was pretty rubbish. 3001 was alright though

[Pepsimaxfresh]

There is no driver in the car

[Raynor9X9]

If they had made 2010 like the book it would have been far more epic, I can't believe they completely left out the Chinese ship and what happens to it.

[nivlekreklaw]

well, that answered my question.

@noitcurtsnocnacnuD I was referencing the song "The Golden Age of Video". Look it up, it is a pretty cool song. :)

[FinalStarmanDX]

I still need to see this movie. I really enjoyed all of the books since I was able to realize that 2001: A Space Odyssey was a very visual movie, and that the books couldn't exactly do that. I personally wish they continued the series of movies. I mean, you can't really compete with a movie so ridiculously revered. If only Kubrick was alive today we may have had the full series.

[MeTaLdUdE02]

@FinalStarmanDX tam hanks wants to do the series.

[gettotheGate]

@MeTaLdUdE02 define specifically your use of the word 'series' there. the only two movies left unmade were 2061: Odyssey 3 and 3001 the Final Odyssey (which was a spectacular waste of time). Please don't tell me he intends to remake the first two movies.

[MeTaLdUdE02]

@gettotheGate i don't think he wants to remake the last 2. i think he wants to do the books. s061 and 3001

[spongefan11]

I read the first book, but I got it from a library. I got to the page where it had this quote but the page was ripped in a way that I could only read a few words and My God-

@NotQuiteAKing Because a couple of comments below mine were some people going "I find this rather shallow and pedantic." and, "I agree, shallow AND pedantic," which is a scene off of Family Guy ha ha :P

[piratecheese13]

i still think it's"oh my god it's full of stars"

[Alanthos17]

Let's be honest. This music is giving me goosebumps and... hope?

I need one of those monoliths in my live.

30/10/2010 My God...it's full of stars...

[navylaks2]

David Bowmen never says that in the movie 2001 does he?

[jdlund]

@navylaks2, no. I could be wrong but I am pretty sure there are no spoken lines passed the whole Hal sequence. I don't remember him ever speaking once it hits the Jupiter moment which I am guessing this is coming from.

[GeneralOfAnegon]

@jdlund Correct. It was edited in - Clarke's book of 2001 was written after and in response to Kubrick's script for the movie. Every deviation in the book is something Clarke disagreed with.

[fishman017]

That line is absolutely haunting. It captures the essence of the 2001/2010 films. They're all about an overriding eternal power. A finite monolithic space filled with infinite stars, Bowman's last embodied words. Really sit down and think about that, Arthur C. Clarke was a visionary.

[HawkXe]

when are they gona make the other 2 movies.

[poopskinTheLiar]

5 people aren't full of stars.

[MobiusBandwidth]

@poopskinTheLiar possibly the best comment I've seen on youtube.

[TheNeocatZone]

@poopskinTheLiar They should've brought a poet.

[integral]

2010 was good, entertaining science fiction, but 2001 rearranged my DNA

[NorthernFirehawk]

Any sufficiently advanced technology will appear to be magic.

[JohnnyThunderzzz]

my god, its full of stars ... no wait ... youtube removed that. only thumbs.

[UnknownRex]

I really liked this slove style of sci fi, that made you think, not jsut random usless action movies :(

[DEFkon001]

@UnknownRex true sci-fi is dead for the most part. Replaced (at least in film) with action, horror tales that utilize the simple replacement of "monster" with alien to make it more digestible in this era of semi-technological utopianism. I shudder to think what that speaks of our culture.

[McLarenMercedes]

@DEFkon001

Well, "Moon" and "Sunshine" is are made in the mold of old true sci-fi movies. But those are relegated to a "niche-market" today.

[McLarenMercedes]

@ryu8888

you mean you don't realize I made a typo??

what drives you trolls anyway??

[ryu8888]

@McLarenMercedes cookies

[JRFrancisco20088]

A good failed effort. This is why Kubrick never made sequels to his masterpieces. No where to go but down. Still a good quote but it's all downhill from there. Oh, well . . . (BTW, Bowman never said anything while "entering" monolith in 2001)

[DetroitLove4U]

One of the all time cinema quotes - top three!!!! My God It's Full Of Stars!!

[FOXCREATIONS]

clasic phrase.  i remember this movie.

[PhillipH903]

who the HELL is comparing TWILIGHT AND SOME DAN BROWN SHITTERY TO THIS FILM???!!!!

[esdorin]

Why isnt that part shown in 2001?

[startrekgamer]

@esdorin Probably time issues.

[dfdsffdfdfdfdsfsdfsd]

@esdorin because it s another film: 2010 yeare of first contact

[LadySierraSays]

Thats right and they aint talkin bout American Idol neither !!!! sometimes I think I would'nt mind joining Ole' Dave Bowman out there !!! LOL !!!!

[hellsxrebellion]

There is no god now stop fighting it does no good what so ever

[julianbinder123]

my god is correctly used because the evntes which were beheld were considered godly

justly using gods name

period.

[bitterfly77]

Which god's name is just "god"?

[julianbinder123]

unless your an ancient egyptian

you would know that there is only one god.....

for all religions....

NOT jesus

hes a person

[bitterfly77]

And doesn't that god have a name? Other than just "god"? Yahweh, perhaps? Jehovah, if you like. Maybe Allah, if you are of the Muslim persuasion. But (the) god's name is not "god" anymore than your name is "human." The biblical edict to not take the Lord's name in vain was in reference to the fact that (the) god did not want his name, "YHWH," (commonly pronounced as "Yahweh") used frivolously or for misdeeds.

BTW: Hinduism, a modern religion, has multiple deities.

[julianbinder123]

no idiot

maybe people have different names for him/her

but its god

the same god

therefore the universal term for him/her is god

........period...

[bitterfly77]

I think you may need to reassess who the idiot is. At least I'm not some 15 year old emo kid who's making videos for his supposed fangirls while talking like a middle school valley girl - who is in serious need of a haircut.

Enjoy your public state of ridiculousness.

[julianbinder123]

1. i am in no way emo at all

you are in fact the idiot

unless your ancient egyptian which i highly doubt???

retard

at least im not a disgusting 30 something year old who stalks the internet

creep

[bitterfly77]

And I'm done. Back to ancient Egypt for me. Enjoy your life, emo kid.

[julianbinder123]

no wonder your on youtube

who would ever want to go into that custy pussy

[deathbal101]

@bitterfly77 Obviously, his name is Cthulhu.

[MOVIEMANFAN]

@julianbinder123 Jesus is god.

[mmmuuufffiiinnnsss]

I always say "My God, Its full of Stars" to my friends as an inside joke IDK why. lol

[DetroitLove4U]

I hope to say that LITERALLY SOME DAY!

[bobodd5]

[TheDEATHSTARIII]

how boring the real 2001 was compared to the movie , where are the giant space crafts

[intigfx]

instead we had giant air crafts smashing into buildings.

[bongolongo]

@intigfx Yes, thanks to the religious people. Had there been no religion, scientists wouldn't have had to pussyfoot around the big questions for centuries and we could have lived out the promises of this movie rather than having War on Terror.

[RivetsAndRain]

Though, some would say without the morality taught to people by religion, we would've torn ourselves apart way before now.

[bongolongo]

And they would say so according to a common misconception. Empathy and cooporation is innate to us. Chimps have many of the same social patterns as humans.

Modern morals and ethics are chiefly the product of thinkers outside the church. Philosophers, philantropists and politicians, who even have to go against religion in the process. Now you see religions having the most backwards, intolerant morals because they can't adapt fast enough to main society.

[jatroup12]

If religion is outside 'main' society & backwards, how is it that it prevents 'the scientists', who are free to study, analyze, research, teach & publish as they wish, from solving teh 'big questions'?

[bongolongo]

@jatroup12 That was a reference to past centuries where the church was still an authority on knowledge. Many medieval (and later) scientists were burned at the stake.

[Breadfan01]

but i think most people would say that religion doesn't teach morality - people have their morals as an evolutionary product. To say that would be to say that an atheist has no morals. And would also acknowledge that, if you are religious, you would not act morally without religion (i.e. that you are inherently a bad person, and t's only fear of hell that forces you to be good)

[ctrlx0]

religion has caused far more problems than it has solved

[Kl1130]

I would agree. Structure is structure, and during the linear stage of mankinds growth I do not think that the negative impacts were great enough to impede said growth. However, now that mankind has entered into an exponential growth in technology and thought, the acceptance of universal truth must also enter into a form of constant change. And by constant I mean infinite. Logarithmic growth people.

[leovieira2007]

what does this have to do with chess?

[naireland]

May not be Kubrick but you could have fooled me. Love that quote

[bjohnblazkowicz]

you are right, it was a small mistake anyway -fixed

[IComeAnon4]

He's not trying to fool you. This is from the movie "2010: The Year We Make Contact." It's based on the first sequel to 2001 that Arthur C. Clarke wrote.

[naireland]

yes chief we know, Kubrick didn't direct the sequel. I'm simply saying that it carries the same tone as 2001

[RaynorX]

@IComeAnon4 I'm sad they didn't show the scene on Europa with the Chinese ship. That was one of the best parts of the book.

[dawidjoseph05]

impossible movie , clear postmodernism

I love this movie, how said famous polish writer "Slowacki was a great writer" but I say "Kubric was a great director"

greetings for all Odyssey's fans

[Krazytaco9]

I'm on 3001 and its interesting

[URProductions]

I've read the book, I love reading books, I have read tons of books. That being said, what with the music, the visuals and the directing in general, I believe the movie is a classic in a way the book can never be. A true masterfull work of art.

[dangkoen]

Yes, they are all by Arthur C. Clarke. But I was also thinking of buying the lot of them. Until I read the first sequel book was changed in favor of the 2001-film. So I decided to stick to the 2001-book alone.

[dangkoen]

There's a fourth actually...

[bjohnblazkowicz]

dunno, what movie did you watch, 2001 or 2010? it gotta be in the beginning (?) of 2010, if I recall corectly, not 2001 A Space Odyssey :)

[wh0sane]

sooo spooky lol, love this film

[DidderKeby]

The BOOK and MOVIE of 2001: a space odyssey was made at the SAME time, right along next to each other.

Clarke just decided to take it further with 3 more sequels.....

I still want a 3001: Th final odyssey movie :(

[bjohnblazkowicz]

well 2010 is not that bad after all, excepting maybe the ending which I did not kinda like

[startrekgamer]

@bjohnblazkowicz I kinda thought the ending was awsome. I mean finding out that Jupiter was actually a type of protostar!? That is indeed the most awsome thing ever!

[McLarenMercedes]

@DidderKeby

Isn't there a 2061 book too? In it a very old Dr.Floyd is still alive aged 103.

3001 was the 4'th book.

[pigenital]

@DidderKeby it's called Independence Day...

[odenskrigare]

@DidderKeby

3001 was execrable

[Jadama0]

@DidderKeby

"3001: The Final Odyssey" is the fourth book. "2061: Odyssey Three" comes after "2010: Odyssey Two". They need to make that one into a movie first ... then make "3001" into a movie.

[Jadama0]

Every time someone tells me they didn't understand the plot to the first film, I direct them to this!

[3rkid2]

@Jadama0

So, if you didn't understand 2001, obviously watching 2010 is the next logical step...?

[Jadama0]

@3rkid2

Sarcasm is all it was. Indeed some people can't see the details of a film to understand the plot. Those people usually wait to hear someone in the film. Like a person 'says' or they 'read' information to understand a films plot. 2010's introduction to recap the previous film does a great job compressing the plot into a few words. Some people need that if they grasp the hidden messages in the previous film.

[Etruscan1973]

I agree the books are good but special element to the movies

[lytealight]

We should all quit watching movies and read the books instead. So much better. You are missing out!

[PeterAndersonn]

Completly different mediums. Movies being a visual one. . .etc. It takes a different set of skills to make a good movie than it does to make a book. Your comment is stupid, and you should feel stupid.

[dkrypto911]

You're comment is much more retarted than his, books > movie adaption ANY DAY. If you're comment is derived from a lack of motivation, literacy, intelligence, head up your ass, or whatever then you are a fucking tool and your opinion does not count because all you're doing is trolling for the sake of trolling. YOU should feel stupid, for he made a valid comment.

[PeterAndersonn]

yes, that all people should stop watching movies and read books ALL THE TIME, because books are ALWAYS better. Sure, that's a real valid comment. You're = you are.

[marcellojun]

Oh, I don't know. The Da Vinci Code movie sucked a lot less than the book, and I am willing to bet the Twilight movies are probably less painful than the books, if only because one's done with them quicker! ;-)

[dkrypto911]

really now? i would have assumed The Da Vinci Code would have been badass to read, but i'll take your word about twilight lol

[lapstudios]

@marcellojun I don't really think you can equate the works of Arther C Clark with such tawdry and vacous novels such as Da vinci code and Twilight. His works are at least well written pieces of literature.

[marcellojun]

@lapstudios You are right, but not about my comment. I did not equate Clark with the rubbish I mentioned. My remark merely agreed to @PeterAndersonn's argument that movies and books are different media, and the comparisons are not entirely valid per se. They will always carry their stories differently. I agree Arthur Clark was a great writer of science fiction!

[lapstudios]

@marcellojun I concur with your reason; a film is a piece of art in its own sense regardless of it's source material. Look at Kubricks the Shining; a completly different story to the book yet still a compelling film. Scott's Bladerunner is another example.

[RaynorX]

@lapstudios could you compare him to Heinlein or Asimov? :P

[GRKiller]

@lapstudios Agreed, the final chapters to 2001 were amazing

[ILiveForCommenting]

@lapstudios I don't at all think you can equate the works of Dan Brown with such tawdry and vacous novels such as Twilight. His works are at least well written pieces of literature.

[tvol319]

@ILiveForCommenting I find Twilight to be rather shallow and pedantic.

[danraich]

@tvol319 Yes, Shallow and pedantic.

[ShonenWave]

@danraich I agree as well, shallow and pedantic

[getback9691]

2001 was awesome!!!! but 2010 was just a campy 80's flick

[korgoth25]

oh my god this is simple people

1-the movie was slow

2- not a whole of plot

3- it was still brilliant

4-the phrase my god its full of stars makes sense once you read the book and watch the films

5-ur all retarded

[CyrisAeon]

The book was good. The movie was slow and pretentious.

[BloodMagex]

1- Like old saying goes, arguing on the internet is like running the special Olympics, even if you win you're still retarded

2- Hence, SHUT THE FUCK UP

[iDanMan94]

totally agree, read the damn book people

[myfanniejigglesaboot]

the dick you want to suck is right here

[bjohnblazkowicz]

In fact, "my god is full of stars" is not transmitting the idea of wonderful things, (most people think this is the message), but is one of the shortest possible message about the unknown. This message fits perfectly in here, you never know how many idiots hang around on za Internetz. Welcome to the club!

[magickrist]

It's in the book, but not the movie.

[Headbanger142]

My God, it's full of stars!

[MST720]

yeah I don't think God would have made the universe and said now everything else will be lights

[BlackMoonAbyss]

This just really gets you thinking...about space and all,what is out there,who is out there,mind bending.

[El135o]

Incorrect, Hyams! The monolith was found near crater Tycho, which is nowhere near the Sea of Tranquillity.

2010 was Hyams' way of trying to ride Kubrick's coattails. Total and utter popcorny claptrap. 2001 is art. This is sci-fi fantasy garbage.

[sakatis]

what is this, why is the "my god its full of stars" sentence so popular?

[Canaris3]

watch 2001 Space Odyssey and you will know .

[johntheechidna1]

Here's a better question about Commander Bowman's last statement...WTF DOES IT MEAN?!

[SEGAClownboss]

Obviously, it means that it's full of stars.

[deadpassive]

Did you actually watch the film/read the book?

[johntheechidna1]

Obviously not...

[deadpassive]

Then... why are you here?
