    Thanks for watching! I think that without question, 2001: A Space Odyssey is the greatest film ever made. I could probably make 20 more videos discussing the film before running out of things to say, but I tried to keep this one focused on my personal favorite aspect of the film, so I hope you guys enjoyed!

    How does having an opinion make me pretentious? "I think", as in, "in my opinion" it's the greatest film ever made. I'm not saying that if you disagree you're wrong, that would be pretentious, but that's like calling someone pretentious because they think vanilla is the best ice cream.

    rdecredico - Each individual person can most definitely say what is best for their own point of view; they cannot say so for others or for everyone. "2001" is also most definitely the finest work of art for me, and no one can take that choice away from me.

    I watch 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY in 70mm on the big screen a few weeks ago. It was the Christopher Nolan "un-restoration" edition of the movie, which is basically how the film was presented in 1968. Although it was strange to watch a movie in the theater without surround sound, it was quite the experience indeed! It even had a 15-minute intermission! It was also well-worth the $22.50 ticket price (I live in NYC) because it was covered by Moviepass!

    Two years ago 2001 was showing on the IMAX theater in my city. My wife got me tickets for Christmas and even though it's one of my top 3 films, I didn't really want to go see it. OH. MY. GAWD. am I glad I went. No exaggeration, seeing 2001 on the 360 degree IMAX screen was a RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE. I literally got tingles down my spine so many times during that viewing. The Dawn of Man sequence... the scientists examining the Obelisk on the moon, the Discovery stretching across your >entire I've seen it on the big screen before, and that's an amazing experience, but nothing... NOTHING compares to seeing it on IMAX.

    I've watched the movie for the first time too young, I think. When I've read the novel I could understand some things that I didn't catch in the movie. Like the (spoilers ahead, if someone that's reading this doesn't know the story) monolith in Jupiter. In the novel, the monolith is located in Japetus, a Saturn moon. I didn't visualize it at the first glance in Stanley Kubrick's picture, for example. Anyway, I think that both, movie and novel, complement each other. And fun fact: the script and the book were written at the same time.

    I always considered the ‘birthday dialogues’ to show us that the more technology involves, the more we lose touch with other people. Cause both people are missing out on the birtday that they talk about. And there is another scene where a woman says she does not see her man that often since he is working on earth. It tells that the more we explore space, the more we fall apart as humanity.

Their video for "Whatever It Takes" too. For 2001, HAL, increase each letter by one, and you have IBM. Also in one shot, can see IBM projected onto Daves face. Then the minotaur/cyclops reference when he's holding the picture of the drawing. Kubrick was a genius for sure.

    Thank you for this. I saw this movie in 1968 at the Cinerama Theatre at Times Square, NYC. I immediately knew I was watching what was essentially a silent movie and completely understood every bit of it. Many who saw it kept wondering what it all meant. For me, I simply accepted it for what it was: A look into a world that could never be explained. My favorite line: "Without your space helmet, Dave, you're going to find that rather difficult." Also, I think it is a shame silent movies are no longer made. I also hate the fact that every movie must be shot in colour. Of course I am glad this movie was, but there are so many movies I've seen since I thought would be so much better if they had been filmed in black and white.

Therefor, you don't have to think, it's not a cerebral movie. It's an imagination voyage. The cerebral aspects are the ones about Hal, an A.I. feeling unsure, the rest however, since no particular meaning has been given is a mere abstract experience presented to us by the vessel of David Bowman. Perhaps giving us something to strive for.

    I love films like this though I find that some that focus on show don’t tell to such an extreme degree often can’t help themselves having a scene where a character basically just explains the themes straight off. A Ghost Story has so much gorgeous silent storytelling, obviously not nearly to the same degree as 2001, but the themes of impermanence are laid out by a random bloke at a random party. Similarly, Gaspar Noé takes it to the extreme of having characters in his films that represent him, especially in Love, which also states its themes outright. I suppose it must be damn tempting to do something like that, though, if you want to make sure your film is understood...

    I think that's something great about 2001, there's really no lengthy scene just outright telling you its themes. I haven't seen either of those films yet(I know :/) but I just finished season 2 of Westworld and had that exact feeling. Has some really cool concepts, but some of those exposition scenes weren't to my taste.

    American Beauty is a fantastic film, with a lot of great visual storytelling, I just used it because it fit nicely with the look I was going for(with the characters opposite each other and looking at each other) I guess I should have figured some might think of it as an attack on American Beauty, but that wasn't my intention :)

    This is what's lost on modern Hollywood filmmakers and it's why most of the issues with modern films revolve around writing. They rely on painfully on the nose expositional dialogue that's so unnatural. They need to learn to show not tell... And they need to learn to keep their politics at the door because the other major issue is that modern Hollywood films are nothing but poorly made propaganda.
