Just watched 2010 for the first time. It's sort of like a 2001 For Dummies.
Where 2001 was poetic, this was prosaic, even pedestrian. Where 2001 was practically a silent film with little dialog and vast stretches of realistic outer space scenes, this was way too noisy. It seems to have inherited all the worst and stupidest aspects of the Star Trek series. What is it about film makers? Are they stupid? Or do they just think their audience is stupid? Are they right?
Anyway, that's not to say I didn't like it; just that I was disappointed in many areas and felt it should have been much better than it was.
