It turns out that 2010 is on YouTube so I am revisiting it. I happen to have seen it well before watching 2001, thanks to TV broadcasts. It's not a great movie, but it was how I learned about HAL 9000 for the first time. (Then I read Clarke's book, then I read The Lost Worlds of 2001, and only after all that did I eventually watch the Kubrick movie.) ~Chara
