This morning I was on the phone with a friend and I mentioned the movie 2001 and the response I got made me cringe. She said, “I don’t like those Star Trek kind of movies” at which point I began feeling sick to my stomach. I mean how could someone put this movie in a category with ANY movie! There is no category for this movie. It stands alone. It has withstood the test of time better then any other movie, EVER. Its scope and vision have not even been attempted since its arrival. It is the single best experience in a theatre possible. It is not a “space movie.” It is a film about the evolution of mankind. It is a prophecy as well as an option for what one may believe about God. The first 2 minutes of this film, the screen is black and the music makes you aware, that what you are about to see, is about to transport you. It opens with “The Dawn Of Man” and its interpretation of the world before man had gained “reason” and how the arrival of an object of God gave man the “reason” they required to survive. It then touches on the subject of where man may be 100’s of years from now and the arrival of the God object again, on another planet, to reaffirm man’s belief system. It is truly a magnificent film to behold but, don’t see it without a great sound system or killer headphones because the music is an integral part of the ballet that is this film. It’s predictions of what technology would be in the future are now coming into world consciousness and this film is over 50 years old. It is astounding that this film could have been made so long ago but, then again, ” Kubrick” is God when it comes to filmmakers. So now that I’ve gotten all of that out of the way let me tell you what happened to me as I watched this film………….It infers that men will develop a sustainable fuel source and that space exploration will be government business. Now I don’t about you but as soon that idea, of a sustainable fuel source jumped out at me, my mind went into overdrive. What if we could develop a sustainable fuel source? Think how the world would change. We could fix the ozone and heal our planet and leave a great legacy for our children to build truth and honor upon. We’d be able to build cities that could explore our galaxy and develop new resources for everything from metals to food sources. As long as we were not hurting any other living things I see it as a part of the grand design. The film is so thought provoking that the sense of awe you feel, as you watch it unfold, is unparalleled. I cannot speak highly enough about this film and the vision of it’s director Stanley Kubrick. It is a light that shines in in the cinematic galaxy that only a person with no curiosity should ever miss. It is now, the greatest film the world has ever produced. If we had a film to send out to our neighbors in the universe, this film would surely be one of the possible candidates and most assuredly my only choice………..I am Dartanion2 and that’s the way I see it…………cheers!
The description regarding “2001: A Space Odyssey” is given herein quite admirable. Most of credit goes to director of the film Stanley Kubrick. I am sure such a great film has not been appeared before us as yet.
That was a really interesting take on the film and an intelligent description although I haven`t seen it yet but I will certainly get the DVD, I`ll put it on my wish list for my birthday in September. I know Geoff has seen it but I haven`t. Wouldn`t Stanley Kubrick be an excellent and interesting dinner guest. I would love to hear what the actor Stephen Fry would say about it and he is another gentleman who would be a superb guest.
When we think about it quite a lot of technology has been developed through the idea`s from science fiction films, I love films on that subject and have read a lot of books about it both fiction and fact. I`ve even read a book on particle physics and shocked myself when I actually understould some of it. It really goes to show what our brains are capable of doing. I`ve always said that for every problem there is an answer, we just have to think about it and put the effort into finding it.
What was the reason for the jelly fish T`? A really interesting piece sweety, well done.
Love you

Hi G, why is it that you are always the “first” at everything in my life. Could it be a sign? Could you be the “One?” I believe you are, the one that God intended me to meet and the recipient of my momentum, so that in return you could teach me to be ……that which I am not…….AWARE….totally and completely, psychically in “tune”…….you are teaching me everyday……..our relationship has become symbiotic…..everytime I open a poem or a page, you are already there, waiting! I am exceptionally observant, YOU are teaching me that there is more………I trust in your gift. So, this question of the jellyfish! It is my interpretation of the possibility that deep space exploration ships could be self-healing if they were organic and man-made together. So the ship would have the ability to “heal” itself if it were to encounter violence. It seemed logical because of the futuristic designs of deep space exploration vehicles already on the drawing board. It was God telling me to take a chance, after all, without Faith there is no progress. The Jellyfish has all the organic capabilities as well as the deep space design of man made vehicles.I hope this answers your query, but lets be very clear here…this movie is VERY important,,,,,,it is LIVING historical prophecy that is coming into existence right now,…..having been put on film some 50 years ago. Let that rattle your choo-choo for a few………smiles….tony
Rattle my choo choo!! that`s a new one for me lol!! What an interesting theory for space travel. Wouldn`t you just love to be able to do that, I wouldn`t think twice about it, I`d be straight to the front of the queue. I love anything to do with avionics and my dream would be to have a flight in a Stealth fighter. I have flown in a hot air balloon! flown a helicopter and actually brought it into land! and I have flown a 2 seater light aircraft. I got the pilot of the helicopter laughing when I blurted out in excitement ” Oh my God look the world really is round and look the river goes all the way out to the sea!!! ” I do come out with some crazy things when I get excited!!
God meant us both to find each other sweety because it is so important to him that we help each other to heal spiritually because that in turn helps us heal physically. Also your blog is helping others to understand what our souls are all about. Be very proud of yourself honey because God has been teaching you your whole life in readiness for this, because he knows how important it is to everyone who reads it honey. I`m really proud of you and so pleased that you are getting so much from doing this blog. God works in mysterious ways! his wonders to perform! is wonderfully true, so carry on with your hard work sweety you are doing marvelously well.
I love you
