What do you think the meaning of this movie is?

[@Ken00001010]

You can't imagine what it was like to see this in the theater in 1969. At the end we all just looked at each other and were speechless.

[@robertbasine8842]

2010 is very different … but it’s a solid and underrated sequel that is well worth watching.

[@LeeCarlson]

This movie was developed from a short story by Arthur C. Clarke titled "The Sentinel." And this is the man who wrote: Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

[@donsample1002]

Hal was programmed to process data with perfect accuracy, and complete honesty…and then he was told to keep a secret. The conflict between those conflicting orders drove him crazy.

[@kevinkuenn5733]

The Earth looks "strange" in this movie because it was made before any photos of the Earth from space were publically available, and this was the filmmakers' best guess of what the Earth looked like. That's how old this movie is.

[@emiendo3128]

The reason why earth looks “icy” is because they made it before the famous moon landing so they never knew what the earth looked like from space. Stanley kubrick thought we wouldnt see the land due to the atmosphere so he made earth look all blue

[@captainbryce1]

This film was NOT meant for you to understand everything. If you want to understand THIS film, you have to watch the sequel "2010: The Year We Make Contact". It's actually a pretty good movie, although totally different from this tonally. It is a much more plot driven and less artsy film, but very well made. The whole "HAL" part of the movie is really just a red herring. A very interesting, very important red herring, but it doesn't really address what's really going on.

[@Serai3]

Oh, no. No no no. "Also Sprach Zarathustra" was NOT written for this movie. It was composed in 1895. None of the music featured in this film was written for it. It all existed previous to the production. I know, some of it just sounds too perfect, right? But nope. Kubrick was just very good at finding music that fit what he wanted to say. He's credited with bringing new life and attention to the works in the film - "The Blue Danube", that amazing waltz that is now wedded to space flight in so many memories, was considered fusty and old-fashioned until Kubrick dusted it off for his moon flight. :)

[@johnirving5949]

While it's a different feel, 2010: The Year We Make Contact is an absolutely amazing sequel. It's definitely a must-watch!

[@heyheyjk-la]

One reason why the earth looks different is because when they made this film, there weren't really any color photos yet of the earth from space to base it on. The famous "blue marble" color photo was taken in 1972, around 4 years after this film came out. Groundbreaking effects start to finish in this film that, like you mentioned, still look amazing. Kubrick used multiple tricks to show what being in space was like, including the shots of Dave hovering in zero gravity inside HAL. The set was built and set up vertically, with the camera at the bottom looking straight up so they could put the actor on wires which were hidden by his body. Still an amazing film and you should read the short story now it was based on, "The Sentinel" by Arthur C. Clarke.

[@JonInCanada1]

Also Sprach Zarathustra was composed by Richard Strauss in 1896 but yes, it is so epic it feels that it was written specifically for this film.

[@thecraigster8888]

The black screen at the beginning always confuses people nowadays. Theaters back then only had the one large screen. As a holdover from stage theater days, most of them had a curtain that was closed when the audience filed in. As with many movies, the music by itself would start with the curtain still closed before the movie actually started. This would cue the audience to leave the lobby and get seated. As the curtain opened, the movie would begin.

[@GhostWatcher2024]

Haley's smirks as she watches all of you lose your minds was funny as hell and probably was a perfect mirror for my own expression.

[@tallonrock1471]

Hal is probably the most tragic part of this movie. Him begging not be killed and shut down is part of what makes me feel like he IS sentient. He expresses genuine human emotions.

[@natepeace1737]

Saw this at an IMAX theater for the 50th anniversary. It was surreal. Like I’ve never seen the movie before. Screen images as tall as a building, piercing sound that vibrated the very cells in your body. Unbelievable presentation of a masterpiece!

[@KthulhuXxx]

I like how Hayley takes a sip of water whenever she's pretty obviously wanting to say something that would be spoiler-y.

[@thomasoa]

The creepy choral music used for the monoliths is by a composer named Ligeti, from one of his masses. He was a 20th century composer whose music was highly experimental and often very difficult on the ears.

[@strategicthinker8899]

It's not a "2001 theme". It's classical music from Richard Strauss. Kubrik used his music as a filler when making the movie and then left it in in the released version as it was the best representation of what he wanted to convey.

[@c1ph3rpunk]

This movie didn’t predict what the future would look like, it inspired humanity to build what was in it. The sets look like the offices at Apple, the ship insides look like the cockpit of one of Musk’s.
