I know the ending of both the movie and the book are a bit ambiguous, but on that final point in the book, I always thought Clarke was pretty clear in his...
It surprises me how much fans disagree on this issue; I didn't think it was that ambiguous. But just for reference, here's the actual passage -- make of it...
And without using the actual quote, I think that's pretty much what I described. The powers on Earth were getting ready for nuclear war as the Star Child...

Damn! I KNEW it! I knew they couldn't let the 40th anniversary go by without a proper screening somewhere. I would have flown down for that if I'd known. On...
Well, you'd better grab your airline ticket now since they will be doing a second showing at the Academy on May 21. Tickets go on sale on May 1, and I am...
Sorry for the small correction. The showing on May 21st at the Academy apparently will not feature the film itself, but will instead be a behind-the-scenes...

Glad I was able to jog some fond memories from 2001. I know I have a lot of those myself. Even more so lately in that I've been able to be involved with so...
... Hmm. I always considered that Aries was too large, and the wrong shape, to fit inside the rectangular dock. In fact, both docking ports appeared barely...
Kubrick was always such a perfectionist that it is interesting that there are several major inconsistencies present in 2001. It doesn't detract from the...
... And why was the antenna rotating when Bowman was making his EVA to replace the AE35? Wasn't it supposed to be pointing at Earth? Relating to something I...
The antenna was probably rotating in the shot simply because Kubrick thought it made things a bit more dynamic. I believe in the book it states that prior to...

The whole idea of having the window facing directly upward during lading, as in the Aries 1-B, was always a strange choice. You would think that the pilots...
