So it is not alway clear that the focus of your narration has switched. That said, this is a really fascinating and brilliantly researched series of videos. Informative, interesting, and really adds to my (our!) appreciation of this amazing film.

I grew up in north bay Ontario. My brother in law , Paul Levesque, was a big Kubrick fan and suggested we travel 4 1/2 hours to Toronto where 2001 was screened in cinerama at the Glendale theater . I was 10 yrs old at the time in 68’. My brother in law continued to see screenings every Saturday for 6 months . He became friends with the projectionist who also gave Paul’s contact info to a reporter for Time magazine, who ran the story detailing Paul’s obsession. Kubrick read the story and wrote a five page letter to Paul thanking him for his devotion. I read the letter and it gave me a bond with Stanley . He ended the letter offering an memento from the shoot . Paul requested a frame of negative of the wide shot of Dicovery . That is how a 3’ x6’ poster of the Discovery sat in his living room until his passing two years ago . I’m now a camera operator for Guillermo del Toro cheers

That anecdote about putting a blanket beneath nervous actors foot is just so simple and nice solution. Easier to hide nervous habit than try to remove it with force.

I'm watching this on an inexpensive PC while my phone charges. There are several other screens in my vicinity too. It's incredible how ubiquitous they are. We're generally surrounded by screens now. Not only did this movie predict that but it went to such great pains to replicate it faithfully. Little projectors everywhere because of course their screens aren't possible like they are now, back then. That's amazing.

Kubrick's quote about Arthur Clarke captures something he rarely gets credit for--his sense of cosmic melancholy. He's not known as a particularly emotional writer, but it comes through in many of his stories. He also had a vivid visual imagination, which made him a good partner for this project.

Hi, Miguel! That's a difficult question ... I was 13 years old and have always been a science/spaceflight/sci-fi buff. I'm also a fan of good film-making. The movie portrays huge philosophical ideas in an extraordinarily spare manner. Kubrick was not afraid the challenge the audience rather than spoon-feed them. There is not a wasted shot or moment in the film. For example, consider Moonwatcher at the end of the fight at the waterhole, throwing the bone in the air. The camera follows it up, down, and then BANG we are watching satellites in orbit - the result of that single idea to use tools planted in the pre-humans' minds by the creators of the monolith. Is there a more elegant shot in movie history? I doubt it - maybe a few matching it - but none that surpass it. Then, Heywood on the moon, at the monolith, reaching out and sliding his gloved hand down the side - in perfect parallel to Moonwatcher's actions in the earlier sequence. There are many others, but those two stick out. And I LOVE the music. "Atmospheres" is one of the most gripping pieces I have ever heard. And to use "The Blue Danube" for the shuttle docking sequence - and the "Gayne Ballet Suite" for the sequence introducing the Discovery and its crew. Absolute perfection. Finally, even given the special effects limitations of the time, Kubrick was adamant about being technically accurate about the future he envisioned and the weightless conditions of spaceflight. The movie is truly a work of art. That's a long answer, but I hope it helps!

I've been watching your vids about 2001 and I never realized the time, effort, detail, and thought that went into it. It's insane! Kubrick was incredibly goal oriented. He did whatever it took to realize his vision, including pushing himself. On a side note, I had dinner with Arthur C. Clarke in 1970 at a NASA dinner. i was a young engineer at the time working on the space program. An executive I knew heard me talking about how the movie inspired me. He said, "Would you like to meet Mr. Clarke?" and I found myself sitting 4 chairs away from him at dinner where he was the speaker. (I have a photo of him and me at the dinner). He spoke about the movie, about how IBM was not HAL one letter apart by conscious choice, how one must read the book and see the movie several times to understand the meaning, and thanked all the manufacturers working for NASA (vendors). He humorously reminded us that we were the lowest bidders. At the table, he fielded so many questions that he had trouble eating. He seemed to have a hearing deficit on one side because he held his cupped hand to his ear when someone spoke from the left side.I didn't ask him anything - a combination of being the 'junior' person at the table and being star struck. It was obvious we were in the presence of genius. Kubrick certainly chose the right collaborator for this movie.

It seems there was meticulous planning of making this movie, yet Kubric was willing to improvise or change the original plan at any point to get a better result. It's a winning set up for creative work. Also interesting how he would create something organically eg with the lip reading dialog: Letting the actors improvise on a long script, use the recorded improvisation and let them work on that one once again until the right length was achieved... this is so much more natural to achieve a shorter dialogue than asking a scrip writer to simple a cut script short.

There is great odds into facts, Stanley had deep knowledge of projects never revealed to any surface earthling, every Sci-Fi specs in the video looked extremely expensive, yet ( with respect) far more effective than all the space programs today. Even correct on all anomolly, from AI sentient & consciousness issues, the comparison of espionage leaks of Cosmonauts achievements far beyond the west, all the way to conspiracy photo evidence of stealth military elites colonization in realms not of Earth. He may have attempted to reveal, using a sci-fi portrayed of these trials and errors into the actual drama events. That health condition of Stanley's last days, is also controversial. Poor HAL (IB&M AI) only got a second acting part in Night Rider 2 ( the second version).

Excellent series of videos. My favourite film of all time. I was lucky enough to go to the live screening in London with a full orchestra and choir. Spine tingling and unforgettable. Looking at some of the techniques for shooting in the centrifuge, I remember seeing a still of the camera pointing at a large mirror on the floor to capture a shot of something above. The most impressive aspect of the filming was how creativity and common sense were used by Kubrick and the crew to solve the problems of achieving shots that had the audience baffled at the time.

He also did a lot of prep for Napoléon, which I think would have been one of the greatest epics of all time next to 2001.

Really liking this series a lot. The HAL-as-social-manipulator theory is a good one, but there's also the option for a more innocuous portrayal of his chess mistake: if you're assuming that the psychological stress of keeping the mission's true purpose a secret is interfering with his ability to function-essentially a nervous breakdown (the tack taken by Clarke in 2010 and onwards, for example), the early checkmate call can be seen more as a symptom of that breakdown rather than an attempt to manipulate Frank. Indeed, there's a minor tragedy; if Frank had noticed the mistake, things might be different.

@eddievhfan1984

7 жыл бұрын

Well, in the novel, HAL's breakdown was more associated with a natural side effect of the increasing complexity of his AI circuitry-once it reached a critical point, it would have been possible for him to become psychotic/neurotic as a random event, and had the crew not confronted him, he might have found a way to work it out. One of the twin 9000 computers (there were two on Earth in the book) also developed similar symptoms as HAL independently. Well, there's a couple things that come out of that-either the nervous breakdown was so intense it was legitimately compromising HAL's fault detection equipment, or HAL decided to outright lie about the AE-35 unit so he wouldn't feel so paranoid about his masters on Earth monitoring him for signs of cracking. Actually, that also goes back to the scene were HAL asks questions of Dave about the mission, hinting at the monolith and the strange circumstances surrounding the mission. The conspiratorial theory would suggest that HAL was actively testing Dave's psychological disposition like he did Frank, only Dave saw through his questioning, and HAL subsequently started a "crash" gambit upon realizing that he no longer had control over the crew as he thought he did. I, however, tend to prefer a different theory-that HAL was actually trying to resolve the conflict he had by trying to figure out what Dave already knew or suspected. If he knew enough, HAL might have been able to come clean-if Dave already knew about the monolith, he wouldn't need to keep it a secret anymore. But Dave either had no idea, or just thought it was only a psych eval, and that's the moment HAL decided to break contact, possibly so he could vent the whole thing without Earth listening in. However, the outright lie about the AE-35 unit probably made his breakdown worse, and Frank didn't help matters much... :P

26:55 excellent still of the shooting set of this location! I saw the movie in '68 and followed it ever since--first time ever seeing this. It's like trying to see the Star Trek bridge set on the RKO stage in '66--damn near impossible.

So prior to Gary Lockwood's veiled criticism towards Stanley Kubrick were the astronauts to have discussed disconnecting HAL on deck where obviously HAL could hear them? Which would have been inadvisable to say the least. Lockwood's idea that they should talk in a pod out of HAL's detection was a great idea and for me really added to the tension. That HAL is able to lip read is a brilliant solution ramping up the tension still further whilst also moving the story along. HAL's lip reading was unquestioned by me as i first saw this film in the late 90's and it was a technological reality. Funny to think a computer's ability to do this was considered unlikely at the time of filming by some on set whereas to a future viewer such as myself it didn't even raise an eyebrow. Kudos to Kubrick both for hearing Lockwood's criticism, adopting his idea of the pod conversation and then coming up with a solution for HAL to determine what the astronauts were discussing.

Well done - and thank you for making this series. All of us watching, I am sure, are very grateful for your hard work.

I'm just discovering (ha) this series now. It's definitely the best 2001 doc on KZread. Thanks so much for it!

The work you put into this is wonderful. Thank you

SO EXCITED when I saw this. Fantastic work, as usual.

I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed it! I'm working on Part 6 now!

I love this series so much. Thanks for all your work.

Those newspads have got to be one of the most interesting predictions of future technology. A lot of other stuff is made up and you hope you get it right. Instead, the result ends up a heavily modified version of what was projected as future tech. The newspads predicted, with very few differences, what today's tablets are like.

First time I've seen your channel. I have read many books on 2001 and your presentation is absolutely superb. I learned many new things about the production and will now be checking out your other presentations on this game-changing film. Thank you for all of your hard work.

This whole series just makes me smile.

Fantastic job Cinema Tyler, you put a lot of time and energy into this and the results are worth the effort

Thank you for your excellent, exhaustive insights into 2001--a lot of research on your part. It's really overwhelming how much effort went into this epic film! I look forward to your next part!

+Sutterjack I'm constantly blown away at how much thought and detail went into each frame of this film. Thanks for watching!

Wow, this is an impressive deep dive into what’s probably my favorite movie of all time. Looks like I have just found my newest KZread binge. Great work.

Breath-taking ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Arthur C Clarke was a genius! He and Kubrick were an awesome team.

i find this really relaxing to watch

+olivia brocklehurst Thanks! The lovely music is by Chris Zabriskie. I must admit I also love listening to Keir Dullea's voice-- it has gotten even better with age.

Anything that adds this much to our appreciation of a work of such intense brilliance as 2001, as this series of documentaries does, is itself worthy of the highest possible praise. As for the film itself, one of the many things that has pleased me more and more as the years have gone by is the technology design and the way it gradually coincides with the world today. For instance, the screens. Just look inside the cockpit of, say, an Airbus A380 or a Dreamliner and I think you'll catch my drift. Not to mention the large all-screen tablet computers. I frequently have wondered whether the set design was astonishingly prescient, or just so incredibly, indelibly influential that the way we do so many things now was because of they way Kubrick and his team did it in "2001". Either way, the richness and texture and importance of this production means it will endure for as long as any other major work of art: perhaps indefinitely. In that sense, I really believe that, as a motion picture, it is one of a kind.

Thanks for these videos! Watched 1-4 without a break, very goooood! Keep up the great work : )
