    One thing I love about 2001 is that it’s like Fantasia: you’re not there for an exact narrative. You’re there for the visuals, abstract concepts/imagery, the music that goes along with the scene, and to admire the fact it was made.

      Fantasia is a slept on masterpiece. In a way the medium peaked with Fantasia and that was in 1940.

      im seeing this for the first time, nearly 2 years since it was first uploaded. Never understood 2001 as a child when I first saw clips of it on cable TV, watched it for the first time in completion 6 years ago. This series has brought me closer to understanding the insurmountable work that Kubrick has put into the production of this film.

    My favorite moment in my favorite movie happens at the end of 2001. David is in his spacesuit and you can clearly hear him breathing. In a film, when there is a shot of someone's expression, the shot you cut to is that character's point of view (POV). This POV shot is David seeing himself as an older man, eating. One more shot of spacesuit David, breathing loudly and staring. Then the opposing shot is older David coming to look, but the breathing is gone! *We're in a POV shot for a character that is NO LONGER THERE!* This is the most perfect moment of cinematic existentialism that has ever or will ever be accomplished.

    Old guy here, I saw the movie when it first came out as a youth seeing the spaceships orbiting earth with the Blue Danube made perfect sense (old people at the time didn't get it). I perceived the stargate scene as the psychedelic scene (old people at the time didn't get it). It all made sense that by the time I'm an old man there will be regular trips to orbit and the Moon, which so far it's still years away (and Pan Am went out of business).
    Nice series compiling various sources, good explanation about who was credited for special effects at the Oscars and who actually did them. I was always confused as I couldn't perceive Kubrick doing all the effects at the same time directing and producing a movie (and have read of the work Trumball and Pederson did but yet it isn't really clear in the screen credits).
    I think what made this movie effective was that none of the aliens were seen. Even if they created something impressive it would have ruined the ending and entire movie. I know for a fact that after watching the movie including a couple times through 1970s when some theatre will feature it, my friends and I would debate and argue about what this movie was about. What is the monolith? What is the stargate (wormhole in space or the mind imagining stuff like on drugs)? Why did HAL go bonkers? Can computers develop a mind of its own? What was the room at the end all about? What were those noises? Did Bowman actually see an older of himself? When the glass fell and broke, was this a deliberate move by Bowman to see if physics behave like on earth? What is the star child all about? Finally I got the book and read it, which answered all those questions. Took the mystery out of the movie, and shucks, no more arguments about what the movie meant.

    • @CinemaTyler
      @CinemaTyler  7 лет назад +5

    Fantastic series, mate.
    So well researched and articulated.
    My Mother took me along to see this when it was released. I was only four.
    I can still remember looking up at her after we'd left the cinema...and asking her what it was all about. She looked down and smiled and asked "didn't you understand it?" like she expected me to actually be able to figure it out while still a pre-schooler. :-)
    It didn't take me very long.
    I've watched it over 150 times in the years since.
    This film (and the Apollo 11 landings a few months later) made a lifelong, indelible impression on me about the Nature of the Cosmos.
    Something that still keeps me getting out of bed to this day.
    You should be proud of what you've done, here.

      Well put mate.. My mother was completely baffled when she saw 2001 with me back in 68.. I was almost 10 and completely smitten by Kubrick's masterpiece. Well over 150 viewings and many SCI FI film projects as a SFX artist since; this one film has remained my all time favorite. Recently I inspired my oldest daughter with her first look and she'll be watching this series after a few more passes. Sadly by caring for my dying father I missed the anniversary and this incredible tribute until just a few days ago. We did watch 2001 together before he passed into the infinite and I often made him laugh calling him Bowman as he resembled Dullea at the films end. With the purchase of several kits released at the anniversary I'm thrilled to relive it all over again. Cheers ComaDave and especially to you Tyler for this incredible series. I look forward to seeing the Kubrick Exhibit in London in a few months!

    Tyler, this is an outstanding series. I watched the movie tonight with my teenage son and I'm in awe of how a 56-year-old movie still looks like it was made today. Your series here really helped me make sense of how Kubrick and Clarke were able to make the illusion complete. Your videos here have helped me because I couldn't sleep without knowing how they did it with 1965 technology before blue/green screens!

    2001: A Space Odyssey was my film crit final documentary thesis in 1979 when I was in broadcast school. I saw it first in 1970 when my older brother snuck me to view it as I was underage. I then saw it 49 weeks in a row on Monday nights at a repertory theatre that projected the film in CinemaScope. My documentary report paled in comparison to your series which was fantastic. I applaud your critique and incredible documentary abilities in what is my favorite film. Thank You so much for you intensive work and intelligent commentary on what I believe to be a milestone in film excellence. I still believe that 2001 was the most accurate SF film ever made. (The airlock sequence in orbit of Jupiter, with silence, then the cacophony of air injection into the airlock). Again my thanks. I’ve subscribed...

    As a lifelong film nut I have to extend a heartfelt and sincere thank you for such an in depth, meticulously researched documentary on this iconic work of art - I've spent a great deal of my adult life contemplating what this fascinating film means and the process used in bringing it to reality. Kubrick is a gifted filmmaker who transcends the physical process of filming an story to make a movie and creates tangible, breathing fluid works of art that will be studied and analyzed for years to come. Thank you for your efforts - I'm now hooked on your channel.

    Just finished your "2001" series. I first had my mind blown by "2001" in 1968 at age 17, when I watched it in awe several times at the Hartford, CT, Cinerama theater. I've seen it in every possible format in the intervening years, never tiring of it, always finding something new and even surprising in the experience. My most recent viewing (BluRay, 55" HD) was about my 30th journey beyond the infinite. Your videos are as interesting and illuminating as anything I've read about the movie, and I've seen a lot of the mountain of printed material and published archives out there. I'm really looking forward to your effort on "Barry Lyndon" (my fan letter about which elicited a letter of response from Kubrick in 1976!) and "The Shining," and would suggest "Eyes Wide Shut" as a worthy subject, too. "2001" and "Barry" are my favorite films in a lifetime of movie-going, and I love the fact that they have found a place in the hearts and minds of so many young people, having been one of those myself when I first discovered them.

    • @CinemaTyler

    On one side, I regret to admit that I did not discovered this channel earlier. However, the ignorance enabled me to watch all the parts of the series in one go.
    Firstly, I would like to congratulate you with heart and soul for such an amazing achievement. Your research, editing, narration and all aspects of the series were spot on and it was very enjoyable to watch. Two years is a long time to dedicate yourself for just one film and this fact increases my respect for you even more.
    Secondly, belonging to a country whose main film industry produces the largest number of films in the world every year, we still have a long way to go to reach anything remotely close to 2001. I am a mechanical engineer myself with genuine love for world cinema and some of the innovative ideas the makers used in the film made me think "Damn, that was really smart!" With no major softwares, cgi, and other frequent used technologies in films, creating such an amazing space story is sheer brilliance. Thank you for showcasing it to the world.
    Thirdly, and lastly, like other comments I would also suggest to stitch the series in one big video and may be pitch it to a studio. They might pick it up.
    Once again, thank you for such an amazing series. I dont know what to do with my life right now!
    Greetings from India and good luck for your future projects.

    I saw 2001: A Space Odyssey when it first arrived in the cinema in Toledo. I was a child. I went with my father. The effect it had on me has stayed with me for over fifty years. I vividly remember the awe I felt then; the sense that this was something unique and important. In all that time I didn't know what to make of the last third of the movie; the journey that Dave takes on his own. Your excellent series gave me insight, and understanding, not just about that portion, but about the entire film.
    I had no idea about the intracacies of the techniques that Mr. Kubrick and his technical specialiists created and used. Your fine description of these innovations is outstanding. I am overwhelmed by the effort and genius that went into the movie. Your videos have added a dimension of appreciation of this great film that I didn't think possible.
    Thank you very much for the research you did and the fine presentation of the work, both physical and intellectual, that went into this film.

    You should really consider doing a video, or a series of videos, on Kubrick's unrealized masterpiece, "Napoleon". Or alternatively, Jorodowsky's "Dune". Both were set to be "one of the greatest films ever made" and I'd like to see you investigate that claim!

      CinemaTyler theres a huge book you can buy online from Taschen, thought about snagging it for myself at some point. It has the script and tons of material and a code for an online catalogue of thousands of research pictures. And yea kubrick is the master of "what could have been"s.
      Also interesting to me is the many iterations that went through Eyes Wide Shut including a low budget black and white woody allen comedy, and one with Steve Martin.

    just binged this series today and i almost teared up a couple times, i just watched the film for the first time recently and went into it knowing nothing about it, it is easily one of my favorite films now and this documentary has been just as enjoyable for me, i can tell you put so much effort and love into this!

    This exposition on the techniques and decisions inside the production of "2001" are almost as adroitly and precisely executed as the movie itself. Bravo, sir. Very well done.

    I came across this playlist only this morning, and watched the entire series nonstop. It is simply beautiful the way you dissected this film in terms of methods of film making and the philosophy behind the story. Even after so many years, people can learn new aspects about this work of art. I am an aspiring cinematographer and you have just given me an entire universe of inspiration and insight. Thank you so much for content like this.
    Yours truly,

    I saw the original presentation in 1968 at age 16 and, at the end, said to my younger brother and cousin "W H A T ??? WHAT HAPPENED??? I DON'T GET IT!" Later I read the book and began to appreciate the story. I did a report on it for a college English class. I read a "making of" book about the movie and began to appreciate it too. Much more like this over the intervening years. Your "How Kubrick Made ..." is fantastic, the best ever. Thank you very much!

    I've watched all 7 parts of your mini documentary. I was like a child watching Saturday morning cartoons. I throughly enjoyed watching each part, while learning so much about what has to one of the greatest movies ever made. The work, the attention to detail, lighting, sound, special effects etc. Its impressive work. Before the advent of c.g. this painstakingly made. Today C.G. does all the work, including those who make look so real you question what's real. The mind is so powerful in helping us to make this journey. It is amazing. I watched the movie just to admire the work that both you and Stanley Kubrick did. Thank you both.

    Brilliant series! Just FYI, the "weird alien sounds" in the baroque room when Bowman arrives is actually another Ligeti composition called "Adventures." More of it can be heard on the soundtrack CD.

  • @johnperivolaris6447

    I could say I'm in part lucky to just discovered these videos just a couple weeks ago or the patience for new videos would have been so much. And at the same it would have been an interesting more personal journey to see you going through one video to the next. Congratulations in finishing this and never stopping. They were great both in content and in the way of presenting it.

    Just completed the whole series in a binge. Being a Retired Engineer that worked in CT Scanners, Robotics, Machine Vision and Automation plus IT for the IC, I now have a MUCH DEEPER appreciate for the human effort and the imagination in 2001. But I also see here the objective of open interpretation and I agree, if you do not have a worker brain the film may have been boring, but for me, I have been filling in the blanks for over 45 years. I have never forgot the music, imagery and themes. You have done an amazing job to bring this all back to my frontal cortex, right next to Close Encounter, 5th Element, Snow Piercer, Roller Ball, Dr. Zhivago, American Graffiti and of course Animal House. Thank You. Dennis

I have been waiting for each part for months, and once they were published I have delighted them like a kid with a pair of new shoes. Thank you very much for sharing your incredible talent, wisdom and hours of work dedicated on revealing the secrets of this masterpiece with all of us. Kubrick, wherever he is, must be proud of you man.

The analysis was thorough and insightful, and the narrator did a great job of breaking down the various themes and symbols present in the film. I especially appreciated the discussion of the film's prop usage and great cinematographic experiments ahead of it’s time. Overall, it was a great watch for any fan of the film or anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of this classic work of science fiction.

      I do want to stitch all of the parts together at some point.

      @@CinemaTyler If you are afraid of a copyright strike, you might consider offering the re-edited full documentary as a separate (or private) link, or something to order from you directly like what Rob Ager does.
      A slight critique: you might consider changing the font for your channel name, as the "comic sans"ish font doesn't quite live up to the quality of your videos.
