  • IGNORING Arthur C Clark's PLOTS FOR 2010, 2061 AND 3001, (apologies) !!!!!!!!!!!
    Some 203 years and 2 months after astronaut Frank Poole (Gary Lockwood, this short approved by the man himself!) is murdered by the Discovery's A.I. HAL 9000, his body encounters a Monolith. This is an exercise to emulate as much as possible the shooting and photographic effects style and the implied approach to mid 1960's physics of the original movie.. Using practical models and digital versions of the analogue VFX tricks used in the original, with total respect to Stanley, Wally Veevers, Douglas Trumbull, Tom Howard and Con Pederson etc.
    Directed, photographed by Steve Begg..
    Frank Poole costume by Chrissie Overs..
    For the people who dont or cant read the first line in this description, theres also the '2010' version....

More like 18-19 years. So on January 6th 2021 at the exact moment a riotous and seditious mob storms the US Capital egged on by President Trump, Frank Poole careens into a moon of Jupiter.....

      To ponder it further - if, say, a black hole did emit some sort of radiated effect that agitated the cillia in our ears and was interpreted by the brain as a noise, was "heard" (even though the mechanism is different from pressure-waves being carried through an atmosphere), is it still true that space is silent?

      @@PolishGod1234 An interesting point. (The books were clearly pro-space travel, so I'll only address Kurbrick's movie.) I guess in a long and rich (yet spare) movie you can see all kinds of themes, some of which are clear, some not so much. The problem with this "secret" message is that this contradicts everything Kubrick has said, because like most people of the time he was enamoured with space travel. Plus, Clarke was involved in every step and it's impossible to see him allowing his work about man's journey through space for first contact extraterrestrials being secretly anti-space travel. I think a more clearer metaphor, and this near the start of the movie, was when one of the hominids throws a bone into the sky which transforms into an orbiting spacecraft, indicating man's eventual destiny is to travel beyond Earth's atmosphere. That's just off the top of my head. A fascinating element of Kurbirck's movies is that they are open to this kind of interpretation and flights of fancy. There is a brilliant satire, Room 237, that likewise posits The Shining is actually Kurick's apologia for participating in the faked Moon landing. Several points of evidence are cited very convincingly. But it's just not true.
      And if what you think really is the case, then it makes the whole movie pointless. In the beginning the monolith helps mankind evolve technologically. Man goes into space and finds a second Monolith in Tycho crater, which points them in the direction of Jupiter. A no doubt extremely expensive expedition is mounted to investigate further. (These are lonely scenes to you, but to those who first saw it the space scenes were "serene". Once there, contact is made with extraterrestrials who themselves have presumably traveled to our solar system from light-years away. But all they do is send our emissary (Bowman) home. Like, was all that really necessary? You were already on Earth, you could have just left a clear message there!
      Anyways, appreciating and especially the environment is critical for our survival both physically and spiritually. But that and space travel are not mutually exclusive. After all, nothing makes you appreciate home more than a trip away!

The symbolism is that despite our technilogical progression across the vast gulf of time between the African monolith and the Lunar one, we're still stuck on finding ever more efficient ways of destroying each other: from a bone as a club to smash skulls, to orbital weapons capable of incinerating countless skulls in mass desrruction.
      There are many questions and quanderies which follow from this, but the main idea (to me, anyway) is that the "Others" lifted us when we were at the verge of extinction from insufficient resources... and planted a second monolith for us to find when we have arrived at a second potential extinction via ourselves.

    Extraordinary ! Congratulations Sir. I watched 2001 on its very first day in Paris, first show, in cinerama. There were few of us , and at intermission we all were in the lobby , smoking a cigarette, the great French actor Lino Ventura was there, with a young boy in a wheelchair. We were all stunned by what we had just seen, nobody said a word. I was so overwhelmed by the film that I went to get my cousin Tony and we went to the night show. I watch 2001 once a year or so and every time I am thrilled again, and again.
    This Poole ending is truly magnificent, Stanley Kubrick would have liked it. Thank you .

  • @TheEyeOfStone
    @TheEyeOfStone Рік тому +13

    Stanley Kubrick is my all time favorite director. (Because of but not JUST because of 2001: A Space Odyssey). When Arthur C. Clarke released 3001, I practically hit the ceiling. But both of these points having been made, - THIS should have been how 3001 started, not just Poole being found by yet another sleepy deep space mission. What if the Monolith / HALMAN had brought Poole back for their own enigmatic reasons? The CGI and models are prefect, they absolutely capture the essence of what Kubrick achieved. The pacing, scale and mood are wholly consistent with the film and the treatment honors the source material with the appropriate gravity it deserves, if you'll excuse the pun. I rarely give 5 out of 5 stars but this time I do. I've noticed over the last year and a half that we're starting to see more excellent projects, from real people, emerge on UA-cam again. Maybe they're improving the algorithm, maybe more people are just looking for better content. But the DIY ethos of this video, honoring the works that inspire used to be a big part of what UA-cam was about. I'm glad to see this now. It's also nice to hear that Gary Lockwood himself approved of this.

    • @ernesthill4017
      @ernesthill4017 7 місяців тому +1

      I agree. Although fact, Kubrick was a bit of an egomaniac and perfectionist.
      He was known to jealously protect his work.
      As an example of this, when 2001 wrapped production, he ordered all the sets, props, costumes, and models destroyed. Even the plans and drawings for them.
      He didn't want them to reappear in lesser works after his time.
      As a result, when MGM made the sequel 2010, in 1986, everything had to be recreated from scratch, forced to use only a master print of the original film as a guide
