We spent the whole car ride home trying to figure it out and talking about what we think happened. It is amazing that Kubrick did this when he did. It would hold up (with some minor fashion updates) today. And the part with HAL? Terrifying! Plus in the middle of the film, the film itself melted (it was an old copy) and I screamed … I thought it was showing how evil HAL was inside. My dad just laughed and laughed at that.Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-84968313903628843692012-11-05T23:37:28.039-05:002012-11-05T23:37:28.039-05:00I watched it once a few years ago and didn't g...I watched it once a few years ago and didn't get it or like it.

Me - meh. Maybe guys just don't want to admit they don't get it - so they have to say they love it. Or maybe they <i>do</i> get it.

Maybe the next time I have a sick day I can squeeze in time to watch - I tend to appreciate slow moving movies more when I'm not feeling well. :)Alycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919057159829023714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-8426591768799474112012-11-05T13:34:50.976-05:002012-11-05T13:34:50.976-05:00I very much enjoyed this review and finding your b...I very much enjoyed this review and finding your blog.

Arthur C. Clarke is an amazing author and Stanley Kubrick films never fail to be amazing. Loved the review, and I think I will not only be revisiting the movie but perhaps the book too!thenovelsphere (Melissa)http://www.thenovelsphere.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-73213785809609080722012-11-05T07:25:11.845-05:002012-11-05T07:25:11.845-05:00I'm going to show my age here and admit to see...I'm going to show my age here and admit to seeing this in the theater when it first came out. I didn't get it then and I don't get it now. It is one of Vance's all time favorite films and he says to fully understand it you need to read the book.bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.com
