I am watching 2001 Space Odyssey for the first time
And I am 40 years old..lol. I sure hope it is a good flick. I have had it on VHS for about 10 years and have yet to check it out.

4. Woah man! Cool Movie dude!
But seriously it's one of my favorite.But you have to be in the good mood to appreciate it.For example if you feel like watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre then don't.It's smooth experience.SO relax and enjoy.

5. You'll have to watch it a few times to start to piece it together.
I have never read the book, and I'm not a scientist... but I have a personal concept of its meaning.

14. I'm not able to watch it on TV
I've seen it in Cinerama, more than once, and I'm spoiled.

15. Watching a non letterboxed version will really hurt the film
It's very visual...
