2001 A Space Odyssey - Space Sequences Tribute Part 1of4

one of the greatest movies of all time!! no doubt about it!

i am a sri lankan and have met arther c clarke.what kubrick did was just genios.i was 12 when my dad took me to watch this.i was mesmerized.thx for a great post.kubrick rules.

cosmic waltz....symetery.....but beware technology....maybes we rely on it to much..it may like in the film destroy us all

after years of hearing about this film i went down to the local cinema where they were playing it ....i have never been so entertained in the movie world before .....amazing film and a fantastic soundtrack......came out of the cinema knowing i had seen one of the best films to date ....what a masterpiece!!!!!!!!

People always seem to demonize CGI as this evil technology. Don't get me wrong, I thing that the special effects here are awesome. I'm just saying, CGI has revolutionized special effects, and is great as long as it isn't the focus of the film.

I think were it possible to have more of a dissolve from the thigh (?) bone to the space station it would have been a much cooler sequence. Demonized as it is, CGI would have made that possible.

one of the greatest movies of all time...

the best space sequence ever shot on film.heres to mr.kubrick.

Still gives me the tingle factor...
What a stroke of audio / visual genius marrying these two masterpieces together. Remember seeing the film all those years ago in London - on the old three screen set up (Cinemascope I think...?). A classic film...Thanks for posting MetalApe...
