Just like "Gone with the Wind", after watching the movie, I can't bear to read and write film reviews, and I want to read the original book to be worthy of writing a little careful. I am reading "Gone with the Wind", and I am working hard to work overtime. I am afraid that the plan of "A Space Odyssey" will be pushed for a few months, so I just remember my impressions first, so as not to forget.
The most true thing about "2001" is the deliberate creation of a silent environment in space and the contrast with the noise when the scene is switched in the cabin. The portrayal of this detail is very sincere. When outside the cabin, the sound was only the heavy breathing of the astronauts, and the rest of the sound, especially the sound of spacecraft jets and fuel injections, was not at all. The contrast between quiet and noisy is reminiscent of the calm and profoundness of the universe. In contrast, current science fiction films, including "2010", are for the display of sci-fi effects, and each has its own merits by creating this type of sound.
As for the black stone stele, it is a kind of magical guide. Inspire human beings to use tools, and inspire human beings to become gods.
The cult style of the last paragraph of "2001" is bizarre, and it switches a field of vision in a blink of an eye. As Ricavier in "Battlestar Galactica" discussed, you can see all the rays of the spectrum, get rid of the tools and feel everything, free from the shackles of the flesh.
In the evolution of mankind, the first jump is to use tools, and the second jump is to abandon tools.
In fact, thinking about science fiction is inseparable from three points: practical science, time, and space. Practical science lies in the progress of interaction, including artificial intelligence. As for time and space, it is nothing but breadth and depth, all kinds of paradoxes and transcendence, plus philosophical thinking.
When humans can get rid of tools and master time and space, the leap from Homo sapiens to Zhishen will be realized.
