    2001: A Space Odyssey

    I watched that again the other day, and yet again, without fail, the trippy psychodelik color part at the end confused the hell out of me. As did that giant black rectangle. Does anybody actually know what it means? Apparently Kubrick himself once was quoted as saying you need to be on Acid to truely understand it.

      If you read the book, it really helps. The movie itself doesn't really explain anything.

        I just read a book by Arthur C. Clarke (I think he was co-writer, and he did all of the sequels). It was good.

        Childhood's end, it was called.

        Totally offtopic.

        Anyways, I haven't seen that movie. I really, really should. <3 Hal.

        Signature subject to change.

        THE ZERRRRRG.

          Read all 4 Odyssey books (2001, 2010, 2061, 3001).

          Then you can come close to almost understanding it.

            In-depth analysis of Stanley Kubrick's sci-fi epic '2001', which pits humanity against artificial intelligence in a life-or-death struggle for survival of the fittest.

              Jewp, after making this topic, I actually found that (gg google) and watched it. Very interesting. It almost makes sense.

              Still doesn't explain the trippy psykodelik part though.
