I know most of us have seen it, but if you haven't (or it's been a very long time), this is your assignment this weekend. Watching this film with the reverence that it deserves will leave a lasting impression on you.

I watched it as a young teenager and hated it. Couldn't understand what was going on, thought it was too slow and long to be interesting.

Cut to now and Interstellar is one of my favorite movies; I wanted some reading material with the same vibe, so I picked up the book of 2001 and I'm loving it so far.

Time for a rewatch as an adult I think.
