    The Forgotten Sequel
    Starring: Roy Scheider
    A joint U.S.-Soviet expedition is sent to Jupiter to learn what happened to the Discovery, and H.A.L.
    I don't know why I wanted to make this.
    I find this a forgotten sequel, or people avoid it thinking it was a bad sequel. I find it very fine even if nothing can reach 2001.

    Seeing this in the theatre when it came out was an experience. I saw it at a Theatre in Times Square on a Saturday afternoon, and there was a full house. When HAL was reactivated and spoke again there was a great round of applause.. This was a good effort, the visuals were Oscar nominated, great cast, and a good story that moved well. Peter Hyams did a nice job as director, with Kubrick's blessing and while not as monumental as 2001 it makes a worthy companion piece.

    Something that tends to be overlooked in _2010_ is the character of SAL 9000, the counterpoint to HAL. The actress chosen to voice SAL had a burden of providing a performance to echo that of HAL's without being a simple copy, and as we can see it worked. If you check the credits for SAL 9000 you'll see "Olga Mallsnerd", but that's actually Candice Bergen.

"Nothing personal, Dave, I just need to do these things to fulfill the mission objectives." That's something I was glad they were able to explain in _2010,_ the why behind HAL's actions.

    I'm of that small minority of people that prefer 2010 to 2001. I think this is one of the best science fiction masterpieces of all time, in a small circle of near perfect greats that includes Contact and the Martian. Hopeful, Hard sci-fi. Gravity and Interstellar would be lesser (but still good!) entries on this list.

      Same. I like 2001 but the first 15 and last 15 minutes are more trippy than entertaining. That said the middle part on the Discovery is very good. But 2010's the good one for me. I saw it as a child and even though I hadn't seen 2001 the intro does a great job of summarizing the first movie. It's just a great movie all around.

    It's a shame that we didn't know more about Europa when this movie was made. It would take centuries to melt the ice covering, and warm up the water. This would result in a world spanning ocean, miles deep, with no dry land.
    PS. The Europa Clipper takes off in October 2024. It'll take four years to get there, before it starts gathering information. My Daughter-in-law works on the mission, and will be in Florida, for mission control, for the launch.

    it's nice to see someone show this much love for 2010. it's a sequel to Clarke's version of 2001, which is a very interesting idea, and the only way to do a sequel to 2001 properly was to make it a wildly different kind of movie. I love both, but if i were to pull one of them out to watch right now it would be 2010.

      Continuity-wise, it's in an odd place. In a sense, it's a sequel to a version of "2001" that never existed: one whose broad plot details (the location of the big monolith, the design of the ship, the struggle between Dave and HAL) are more in line with Kubrick's film, but which in tone and intent is more like Clarke's novel. That "2001" is the novelization Clarke would have written if he'd given his book one more rewrite after the movie was complete. And in the novel of "2010" you can see him actually doing some bits of that rewrite.

    My god... goosebumps!! I know and loved this amazing movie since my earliest childhood (was the first Hyams i ever watched) and this abridged cut really REALLY does an amazing job both explaining what it's about and also making you wanna watch the movie. Back then i saw "2010" before i watched "2001" and was always curious about what happened prior to the events of "2010". Two very different movies and they yet belong together. It still is an absolutely masterful sequel. Still worth watching.

    This is a great film in its own right. It addresses all of the ideas in 2001 and moves the story forward with a fascinating conclusion. Well acted and directed, this film deserves a lot of love from the sci-fi communities. I have always held it in great regard. It was definitely of its time, drawing on the political narrative of the 80's, but I think its well handled. Great to see it getting some mention now. Well worth a watch!

    In the movie The Martian, they got one big “gimme”, (plot hole that the audience forgives) the fact that there is not enough air on Mars to cause a storm capable of pushing you over.
    In 2010: Odyssey Two, their big “gimme” was that Jupiter has nowhere near enough mass to create a star, not even close. Not even close enough for a brown dwarf. But the plot is so good that the audience can forgive that one.

    • @r.d.z.9156
      @r.d.z.9156 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      It is explained in the book (somewhere).The idea is that the replicating monoliths somehow transmute enough of Jupiter's hydrogen into dense matter, which then sinks toward the planet's center, and helps increase the gravitational pressure. The "well-known" threshold for a mass of hydrogen to start fusion is calculated under the assumption that there is just hydrogen, without a significant fraction of heavy elements. A sizeable amount of dense monolith matter is assumed (by Clarke) to help the "too small" Jupiter start hydrogen fusion.

    Very different movie than 2001 in terms of tone, look, and feel. 2001 is a masterpiece of cinema but 2010 is a popcorn movie. Best analogy is 2001 is like the couch in grandma’s formal living room no one is allowed to sit on but 2010 is the couch in the family room that is worn out, super comfy and where the kids pile up on. I appreciate both movies for different reasons. It’s one of those movies i can watch over and over and still enjoy.

    Both 2010 and Doctor Sleep are both fantastic sequels that are completely overshadowed by the Kubrick masterpieces. The filmmakers behind these sequels perfectly understood that they were not to try and replicate the prior films, but rather tell their own stories and respect what came before.

Helped put my son on the path of becoming an Aerospace Engineer. I waned him to be a Corporate Tax CPA like me. Nope. He decided in middle school that he wanted to build rocketships and airplanes. Well he is. First, F-15s and F-18s. Today, he's building the next stealth bomber. Thank you 2010.

    When I was a kid, 2001 was so far in the future, people couldn’t imagine living long enough to see it.

    The Soviet Union still existed. By 2010… it was gone.

    This was the first movie in which we heard Morgan Freeman’s voice used. Even though he played a character talking on a computer. His voice sounded good. Which led to him being used in voiceovers… which we will all remember him for.
    .
    That pansy Doctor guy played a role for which he will play for ever after. He kind of played it firstly in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Which is why he was cast in this.
