With cleverly back-projected images mimicking flat screen computer graphics and the beautifully built and presented sets, everything about the ship's interior looked impressively futuristic and genuine... and still does. Then 16 years later, along came the sequel _2010: The Year We Make Contact_ wherein bulbous CRT monitors with crappy graphics replaced Discovery One's flat screens and where one could actually see glossy paint strokes on some of the (obviously plywood) walls and consoles. Ironic that High-Definition blemish-revealing presentations clearly illustrate the superior production standard of a 1968 film over its 1984 sequel and with 1/3 the budget.

I went to see this when it was on general release, when the movie ended no one stirred all sat there in what i can only describe as stunned silence perhaps not comprehending what they had just seen, many years later i took my eldest son to see the move as it was doing the rounds again, the same thing happened.

You really must read the book by Arthur C. Clarke to understand the story. If you were an advanced 'race' how would you help early man to survive?. Then monitor from our nearest neighbour - the moon, hidden under the surface. Man reaches the moon, uncovers the Monolith, before being sent on the next part of the journey. Man has reached that point and travels through 'Time & Space Dimensions, Reaching an memory illusion, Man then passes on, being reborn - as a Star Child of the advanced race. I met Clarke, the First Citizen of the Universe, in Sri Lanka, communication was his point in this story. Clarke was trying to tell us the Moon has not always been in orbit around our Earth. When you read the book - read between the lines......... .

[@nielspemberton59]

I saw it in 1977 when it came to Washington for another time, and my parents and I were weeping at we were seeing. I am convinced that 2001: A Space Odyssey is the greatest movie ever made. It was made outside London @ the MGM Studios. Had the MGM Studios been located outside Paris France, it would still be the greatest movie ever made. But Mr. Clarke's book : The lost worlds of 2001 would have had different locations in one chapter. " Drove with Roger Caras to a zoo near Nuneaton would have read 'Drove with Roger Caras to a zoo at Rouen in Normandy." BTW the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey inspired me to do Space Exploration merit badge as a boy scout. In 1977 I was a boy scout of 1st Class rank. I am now an Eagle Scout.

Remarkable work....my complements to you for recreating the 'essence' and ambience of Discovery.. It's erry other worldly environment is emphasised even more here by the absence of its human crew .... it reminds us of our relative insignificance as a species compared to the vastness of space and seeming infinity of the universe....and also Kubrick's genius in portraying these themes, and more so masterfully !

[@brianarbenz7206]

I was thinking this was to be thought of as the Discovery after the film's end, as Dave has gone beyond the infinite and all others are dead. But around the 4:50 mark, there are all 3 pods. So this is just a look at the ship, and a breathtaking one. Just when we Space Odyssey lovers think we can't add to our experience of this immersive film, along comes another way. Thank you.

Thank YOU! It's an absolute pleasure to hear such wonderful feedback :)

So sad yet so soothing at the same time. Great job with the visuals & atmospheric foley. 👏

Wicked BEAUTIFUL!!!! My DVD copy of the movie pales in comparison to your recreation. I doubt the 4K restoration of the movie looks this good.

[@TheHALProject]

Thank you so much!

Excellent. The Discovery has always been one of my favourite spacecraft. Does anyone remember Countdown?

[@milesfarrimond2445]

Indeed I do....with James Caan and Robert Duval in leading roles....it depicts the cold war space race to beat the Russians to land a man on the moon....though dated inevitably it is an excellent watch with a gripping storyline and acting, and, for it age the special effects are really decent. Another 60's s/f film well worth seeing featuring manned space flight gone awry is 'Marooned' with a stellar cast led by Gregory Peck, Richard Crenna, Gene Hackmann , David Jansson and James Franciscus...based on a best seller novel by Martin Caidin...it's a film that I return to now and then largely on the strength of its performances. I believe it is still available to watch in full on KZbin, or was a month or so ago. Enjoy !

[@Geffo555]

@@milesfarrimond2445 Ah yes. realistic science fiction from the 60s. Though I was actually referring to a UK Comic called Countdown, in which all the 2001 spaceships were re-used in another story. Around 1970. Thanks for the reply though.

One of the best epic science fiction films ever made. And this in 1968 produced and directed by Kubrick, is so spectacular. But I admit, The Shining is even more unforgettable. Kubrick is definitely one of the greatest filmmakers in cinema history.

[@stevekilligrew788]

Really excellent stuff with the slow, long shots, no tracking top quality directing, editing and sound design. No humans just HAL and lots of screen readouts, unbroken icey vibe. A couple of nerdy points, the original ideas for the soundtrack included using Vaughan Williams Antarctic symphony No 7 and the original concept for the Discovery included large solar panel type “wings”. If you really like the book / movie (they were created concurrently by Kubrick and Arthur C Clarke) may I recommend you read “Lost Worlds of 2001” by ACC. Terrific read for those who are still, like me, enthralled by this epic, ground-breaking piece of 20th century art.

It’s not exactly apparent but when Bowman and Poole are anywhere but inside the centrifuge, like the pod bay, they must be using magnetic shoes to keep from floating around.

I love this detail - sadly this was ignored in the sequel 2010.

Gayane was used in the beginning of Aliens. James Horner incorporated a piece of the music in the main title.

[@vitaligolev2953]

Masterpiece.

[@aaronflint1089]

I've always wanted to do this with Twin Peaks forest/mountains and landscape shots. Freaking so cool. I'm getting big into editing now and at 47 yo am about to take my 1st 2D/3D animation class

[@markstahura6194]

All of the threes in the design (sacred number). Three pods & three pods doors. Three space suits. Three rocket engine pods, each with two rockets (6). The monolith with six sides. Three antenna dishes. Three levels of life termination. HAL 9000 (triple three).

[@TheHALProject]

Gosh - you know I never realised it but you're right! Great observation! I'll now have to watch it all over again! :D

[@bobcastro9386]

Don't forget the three hibernating crewmen; Dr Charles Hunter, Dr Jack Kimball and Dr Victor Kaminski.

[@xman577]

Beautiful work keep it up. Maybe one day we’ll get to see the ship fly up to the main station space station two

[@hypercomms2001]

It would be an interesting project to produce engineering drawings of the Discovery Space Ship...

You have my attention.
