In 2001: A Space Odyssey, Dave and Frank are faced with the problem of the HAL 9000 system and the fact that it is malfunctioning even though HAL is denying that. Hal actually kills Frank by making Frank's space pod accelerate towards Frank as he is fixing something outside the ship, thus cutting off Frank's oxygen line and sets him 'adrift'. Dave tries to go get him in his space pod, but is unable to save him. Dave then comes back inside through the emergency hatch, and he then proceeds to go 'kill' HAL. The ending after Hal 'dies' is probably the most confusing part I have ever seen in any movie because it has very little dialogue and does not have anything to do with the rest of the movie.
Very super post will. I like the wealth of intelligent insight that you have to offer on this great movie. Your descriptions are very good and do a good job on giving us a glimpse into the movie. I look forward to future posts that you might post. Keep up the good work will. Soylent Green is made out of people.
