They're right about 2001. It's a thumping bore.
Patience, grasshopper!
I saw that movie when it first came out, in a non multiplex theater with a great sound system and a huge screen that was totally unlike any screen in todays theaters.
It was awesome.
Yeah - I saw it in Cinerama when I was a kid. Unfortunately I was too young to remember much about it. It's not a perfect movie by any means, but it is beautiful, profound, and creepy. Not for the Star Wars set!
Ditto. Also, the special effects were simply amazing at the time. We've all become jaded with CGI stuff, with many of the younger set not realizing how primitive special effects were prior to 2001.
