2001 - Clarke and Kubrick's Space Odyssey

I absolutely love what the Dawn of Man does and I'm completely invested in this ancient aliens nature trail thing, but Clark's anti-character, the How 9,000, is the star of the show. I'm feeling a nine out of 10, but I think it would have probably been a 10 if I still had the element of surprise, but I guess we'll never know.

However, occasionally I will read a book and watch the film version very close together and the whole experience will meld together and birth a completely new thing, especially if both versions are really good. That's what happened with Annihilation and a Scanner Darkly.
