Have a good day,

And about the only film, before or since, that acknowledges that sound
doesn't travel in a vacuum!

Indeed; why?


Not much happening for me in the real world so have plenty of time for
UseNet stuff!

In 1983 or 84, I paid $75 (a sizable crunch of my weekly pay) or so
for a Beta (yes, Beta!!) Video of "2001, A Space Odyssey". That tape
probably would have been viewed two or three times a year until the
Beta Player finally died in 2004. Fortunately, before that I had
brought a DVD of the film, which I still have and still watch about
twice a year! (so much other stuff to watch!!)


Blu-ray at least, should be. I've never seen it in a cinema, but I'm
told that for example the detail of the space-station (cartwheel shape)
is amazing. I think it might have been one of the first films to be made
in 70mm.

Some of the Classic Revival type Cinemas still show it, usually, late
on a Friday!


(I know it says OT anyway, but how _did_ this get into the Windows 7
newsgroup?)


I'm just following on from where ever this thread has gone!!
