can someone help me out..what does the star child/baby suppose to represent?

not only that, but Kubrick is an insane perfectionist. All of the equipment and peripherals they used were made to be convincing, accurate and plausible. They consulted Nasa, Boeing, IBM etc.

Kubrick

This is one of those movies that is boring as hell other than just thinking about how they created the effect/shot the scene.

one of the astronauts is watching the news on an IPAD right now. (literally, its an IBM tablet pc)

Kubric was initiated ....he knew

shyt is visually perfect I'm literally sitting here trying to look for flaws or any parts that look visually fake. How does a movie from 1968 literally look better than movies coming out today? This wax got me appreciating this movie on a deep level. My mind is blown trying to understand how he made this so perfect visually. The space docking sequence was impeccably done. The Blu-Ray looks magnificent on my 94 inch TV.

it was amazing

never seen this flick either but now I gotta watch it too, been meaning to but if its coli certified like that then its no excuse, and I fukking love the shining so I can rock with kubrick

idk but I alway wanted to know if it's something like this movie called Beyond The Black Rainbow in tone and style, cuz supposedly 2001 was huge influence on this and its a dope, trippy ass movie imo

The more I get into film the more I agree he is the greatest

Because he used practical effects. The problem with cgi and visual effects in general, is that although a scene using it may look mind blowing at first, technology will improve and the same effects will look dated eventually.

2001 doesn't have this problem because Stanley added visual effects sparingly. The most dated scene in that movie is the 'Beyond the Infinite' section. And that's because they used visual effects.
