I love #movies. I love #scifi. I love scifi movies.

I like hard scifi, but I'm aware of the compromises that must be made when bringing technical material to a broad audience on the big screen. I can make allowances for that. So I don't have a problem suspending my disbelief when a technical or scientific clunker is required by #story mechanics.

But suspension of disbelief only goes so far. If @pzmyers is right about "Project Hail Mary" (2026), I strongly suspect I'm not going to enjoy it. So I'll wait for it to come out for home viewing, I think. Easier to "walk out" when it's just pressing the "stop" button and you didn't fork out $40 for tickets and a bucket of #popcorn.

His take - not really a review as such:

Isaac Asimov’s Thoughts On 2001: A Space Odyssey Will Change How You See The Sci-Fi Movie – Slashfilm.com

Isaac Asimov’s Thoughts On 2001: A Space Odyssey Will Change How You See The Sci-Fi Movie – By Jaron Pak Jan. 18, 2026 2:00 pm EST.

An astronaut walks through a tunnel in 2001: A Space Odyssey
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer

Isaac Asimov is, in many ways, the father of modern science fiction. He popularized concepts like “the robot” and even gifted us the Three Laws of Robotics. Asimov’s own works have also been adapted more than once. Will Smith led an “I, Robot” project over 20 years ago. Apple TV is in the midst of its “Foundation” series, too. The latest season was a banger, and season 4 is already greenlit.

While his written words have had plenty of opportunities to make their way to the silver and streaming screens, Asimov had some additional thoughts on other sci-fi projects, including the iconic “2001: A Space Odyssey.”

In a 1977 issue of the magazine American Film, Asimov shared his thoughts on the Stanley Kubrick classic, which had come out nine years earlier in 1968. He praised, among other things, the film’s down-to-earth nature and the fact that it took space seriously, paving the way for adults to enjoy the genre. After comparing most early science fiction to nothing more than a string of “youngster-oriented” Westerns, Asimov called out “2001’s” writer, Arthur C. Clarke, as the key difference maker, saying the story and science were “In the hands of a crackerjack scientist/science fiction writer.” He added:

"That meant '2001: A Space Odyssey' could be relied on to have the elementary facts of science straight. Spaceships would look like spaceships, and the moon would resemble our satellite."

To put it another way, “2001: A Space Odyssey” was one of the first times we saw space stories grow up from “cops and robbers” yarns for kids to an opportunity to tell serious stories that mesmerized audiences and stirred the soul.
Asimov called out 2001’s special effects as especially impressive

Along with the writing, Asimov highlighted the ability of director Stanley Kubrick to bring the visuals to life in new, unique, and exciting ways, saying:

Stanley Kubrick spared no expense on special effects in '2001' and for that reason it made movie history as the first hit adult-science-fiction film.

Asimov added that the movie wouldn’t be surpassed in popularity until “Star Wars” arrived on the scene nearly a decade later in 1977. (The “I, Robot” author had some thoughts on George Lucas’ universe, too.) Coincidentally, that was the same year he wrote his “2001” review. Despite the pivot to popularity, though, Asimov’s commentary couldn’t get away from the visuals. He came back to it, saying:

"What is, by all the odds, most remarkable about '2001: A Space Odyssey' are its visual effects. These do not achieve their interest through the display of extraterrestrials, but through the depiction of those sights of outer space which are there and can be seen in reality."

The ability to show the awe-inspiring and, at times, chilly realities of space is one of “2001: A Space Odyssey’s” greatest strengths. It brings a fresh degree of realism to the space experience that doesn’t feel like it’s copying another genre. It’s embracing the natural strengths of its own storytelling canvas.

En 1962, Roger Corman adquirió por casi nada los derechos de la película soviética "Nebo Zovyot" 🚀 (1959). Esta joya desconocida del cine espacial Soviético fue transformada en una película de terror espacial más acorde con los gustos estadounidenses.

Para dicha tarea eligió a un joven y prometedor estudiante de cine llamado Francis Ford #Coppola. Aunque fue acreditado como Thomas Colchart, podría decirse que esta película fue su estreno en el mundo profesional y ¿qué mejor que hacerlo de la mano de Roger Corman?

1 - La primera tarea de Francis Ford Coppola fue eliminar las referencias al conflicto entre Estados Unidos 🇺🇸 y la URSS 🇨🇳, inventando un supuesto conflicto entre dos naciones post Guerra Nuclear... El Hemisferio Sur y el Hemisferio Norte. Los del hemisferio Sur son los buenos.

2 - Puso todo su empeño en eliminar toda referencia a la URSS en los letreros escritos en Cirílico y alguna que otra Estrella Roja 🟥. Las naves soviéticas se convirtieron por arte de magia en naves de la NASA. Aunque el trabajo arduo y alguna estrellita roja se escapó al borrado.

3 - Dobló al Inglés la película, modificando algunos diálogos para adaptarlos a la nueva trama y a la "sensibilidad" estadounidense.

4 - Los nombres rusos del reparto original fueron modificados por otros nombres totalmente inventados usando la inicial del nombre y la inicial del apellido. Así Larysa Borysenko se transformó en Linda Barrett y Taisiya Litvinenko en Thomas Littleton entre otros.

5 - La nueva trama añadía dos monstruos con los que los astronautas tienen que lidiar. Uno muy semejante a los genitales femeninos ♀️ y otro a los genitales masculinos ♂️... No se comieron mucho la cabeza.

6 - Corman pensó que el público estadounidense no estaba preparado para una película de 77 minutos, así pues decidió acortarla 13 minutos en el montaje final dejando un metraje inconexo de monstruos, doblajes malos, y tramas absurdas.
