Hal, you're watching Hal.

I remember seeing it in the theater in '77, I was 11.

Yeah, the final ten or thirty minutes of the movie is why LSD is illegal.

The book (novel, novella, short story) it was based on was great. The Sentinel by Arthur C. Clark.

Possibly one of the best Science Fiction films ever made, that's what! Don't force an AI to lie to people or you get HAL they psychotic super computer!

I used to feed my infant son with a line from the film. Guess which one.

Maybe I need to push through. I turned it off. I got tired of just watching stuff float in space for twenty minutes.

Get a big bong full, chill out and enjoy the trip.


It's actually a good movie.
Special effects can't compare to what they do today, but great for 1977 1968.

I liked ok, but never went out of my way to see it again.

I love the story of the name HAL: IBM minus one letter.

Airlock that wasn’t controlled by HAL.

THIS is why computer controlled thingies need a dumb, mechanical override!
