• It is amazing that 2001: A Space Odyssey has not aged at all, except for a few minor technical gadgets. The main reason is, of course, the philosophical or spiritual element in this story. We know as little today about the secrets of Creation and evolution as we knew before, and it is not likely that we'll ever know much more. We'll have to be satisfied, as Kubrick was, respectfully admiring the potential for evolution within the mystery of the universe's creation.

• Si tomamos 2001: Una odisea del espacio como ejemplo de alguien que crea un nuevo lenguaje cinematográfico por lo que fue capaz de lograr con la dirección artística, la fotografía, la iluminación, etc., sigue siendo un patrón oro para la ciencia ficción.

• El genio no está en lo mucho que hace Stanley Kubrick en "2001: Una odisea del espacio", sino en lo poco que hace. Es la obra de un artista tan sublimemente seguro de sí mismo que no incluye una sola toma simplemente para mantener nuestra atención. Reduce cada escena a su esencia, y la deja en pantalla el tiempo suficiente para que la contemplemos, para que la habitemos en nuestra imaginación. Única entre las películas de ciencia-ficción, "2001" no se preocupa de emocionarnos, sino de inspirar nuestro asombro.

• Como cineastas, queremos que el público tenga la experiencia más completa posible. Por ejemplo, entrevisté a Stanley Kubrick hace años, en la época de "2001: Una odisea del espacio". Yo iba a ver la película esa noche en Londres, y él insistió en que me sentara en uno de los cuatro asientos del cine para tener la mejor vista o no ver la película.

• Young people today are flooded with disconnected images but lack a sympathetic instrument to analyze them as well as a historical frame of reference in which to situate them. I am reminded of an unnerving scene in Stanley Kubrick's epic film, 2001: A Space Odyssey, where an astronaut, his air hose cut by the master computer gone amok, spins helplessly off into space.

• I watch 2001: A Space Odyssey every time it’s on. I made the kids watch it every time, too, and now they just love watching it. Stanley Kubrick’s great. And Blade Runner is one of my top three science fiction films. A lot of it has come true.

• 2001: A Space Odyssey was a wonderful conundrum when I was a boy, with its giant concepts thrown across the giant screen at Indian Hills Theater. That movie woke me up in ways that I hadn't imagined, and I went searching for book versions of the same drug.

• I think "Avatar" is kind of a unique category where people are enjoying the unique theatrical experience even though they may have seen it on the small screen. They want to have that immersive, transportive experience. "2001: A Space Odyssey" played for three years at the Loews cinema in Toronto. I remember that. It just kept playing. People wanted to return to that experience. That may not be the best example because I think "2001" took 25 years to break even.

• My review of 2001, the year, is the same as my review of 2001: A Space Odyssey. It went on too long, it was hard to follow, and you could only enjoy it if you were really, really, *really* stoned.
