My first impressions after watching both movies and reading both books, IIRC, since it was many years ago (I'm 34), were:

2001: great book, masterpiece of a movie.
2010: maybe even a better book than 2001, but a regular movie.

I still enjoyed the whole thing, of course.

I was able to see a restored version of 2001 in a proper movie screen in the end of the 90's. That's an experience I won't forget.

I do find it weird that people who love the book consider the movie boring though... I mean, it goes by faster than the book, of course, and it's basically the same thing, just masterfully illustrated. It's like watching a slide show. I actually have a book about the movie, with thousands of pictures from the actual frames. Interesting stuff.

Do not clog intellect's sluices with bits of knowledge of questionable uses.

Working...
