So "Space Odyssey" is back in the cinemas but is it worth the "hype"? I mean is there anything left to be said about this movie? Was this topic really necessary? Maybe a line in the chat box or even less. These older movies had this sense of an achievement when they were made, like a little wonder of the world was made, unlike today.
Maybe Tom Hanks can finally do the sequels to it that he apparently wanted to make, maybe just for the TV. One of my favorite stories around this movie is that Hanks is a big fan and his wife gave secretly Arthur Clarke some copy of the script to sign it for Tom's birthday and Clarke didn't know what to write and actually wanted to write "Tom, it's all in vain" as a joke.
In any case if you didn't see it you better do it in the way Stanley Kubrick wanted you to see it:

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
