It really took me so long, almost 40 years later.. Some days ago I watched the documentary Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures, I was quite surprised that almost everybody that worked with him finished that angry with him. Also I quite liked some of the shots about 2001, so the next thing was downloading the other movies he did. I already watched Clockwork Orange and Eyes wide shut, both of them were great, but after watching 2001: A Space Odyssey I don't understand how come Clockwork Orange was the one everybody was talking about.. (Well, I guess I can understand it, it's just provocative, but not that much.. )

2001: A Space Odyssey.. you know the soundtrack, you probably have seen some scenes of it, but I'm sure not everybody seen it, or atleast from the beginning to the end. It's awesome, some of the scenes are just great, I'm still wondering how the fuck they did it, some gravitation stuff. And obviously, every old movie that tried to guess how the future was going to look like, usually looks quite weird and oldish, but in that case some of the scenes still look quite modern. Even the design of the eye of the computer is exactly the same shape that the ipod shuffle does have. But Apple is not the one that get inspired, Koyaanisqatsi, Memories and hundreds of other ones had been inspired by that one (as it's easy to see).

As you can see, I finished quite shocked, but I was even more shocked when I went (after the movie) to the profile on imdb, and realized that the movie was done on 1968. Very depressing :'(
