Do NOT delete this thread, OP. I'm on a limited time frame, really limited. And I am forced to give overwhelming consideration to pieces such as this, so I will have to revisit it.
I read a few paragraphs, I know its something I want to read more soon. Thanks.
I too enjoyed the movie mentioned, but this sounds more realistic than interplanetary travel(much to my disappointment.) Most good long reads weed out the insincere. Therefore, thank you for sharing. My opinion; shit i'm in my 30s still trying to reconcile true evil. Read everything trust no man, save Jesus. Period.
This has to be one of the most insightful film analyses ever - essentially a (worthy-of-Q like) decode of the filmmaker's multidimensional 'comms'.
Like the moment of a lightning flash, its inspired pattern recognition outlines the structure of one very key intrinsic 'seed thought' at the heart of this wonderfully complex film, (whose artistry itself also embodies a kind of self-reflecting, recursive quality within consciousness/perception/reality).
As to the 'water hole' - gradually more and more, the human 'simians' around our planet seem to be getting wise to the crude weapons and tricks of their would-be oppressors - as you've just so perceptively revealed. Hopefully where one or more can go, we can go all.
And in people's emerging perception of this weaponization of screen/psyche - maybe even begin to transcend it? And so swiftly evolve beyond their primitive/devolved reach.
You're on to something. Many of Kubrick's films had several layers of meaning, and 2001 was no exception. It's one of a handful of films I walked away from and thinking about it for days afterward...weeks even. It was like the moment I walked out of the theater, something in me had changed. In retrospect what changed was my way of looking at the world and my place in the universe and in human history. Deep stuff.
You should delete this and post it again in a way that is easier to read, I love Kubrick and 2001, but I can’t read this wall of text. Sorry.

Still, thanks for adding som space to the text, it helps.
This interpretation is yours? It's brilliant.

Everything changed in 2001. Forever.
