For me this was 'just a movie', and not a particularly good one (let alone life-changing).
It does make clear why HAL did what he did - the explanation not only makes perfect sense, but unlike typical filmic pabulum, it can be derived solely from what happens in the first movie, without any additional rationalization or additional knowledge - in fact I fault myself for not 'figuring it out' until seeing this movie.
Can YOU figure it out? Or have you already seen it...
That sounds awesome. It's at the top of my queue, and I haven't seen it yet. I was actually sorta wondering if everything was going to get all horked up when Dave turned HAL off, because of some unforeseen circumstance in which human behavior would be disastrous but HAL would have solved -- he did start to flip out when he said he didn't trust the humans not to jeopardize the mission.
> he did start to flip out when he said he didn't trust the humans not to jeopardize the mission.
That is sort of relevant! Also consider how HAL differed from his 'sister HAL 9000' back on Earth -
ahhhh! INTERESTING. unfortunately, I've given the movie back to The Monastery (Cumberland's public li-bary) so I can't review the micky-ficky syntax...
