Burning Ones

I just saw the freakiest movie of my life. Timmy suggested we watch a movie tonight. Now, I have heard absolutely nothing about 2001. Tim didn’t saw anything so when the monkey-men came on the screen I assumed it was going to be a creative commentary on the evolution of man.. WRONG! And as if Hal 9000 wasn’t scary enough I NEVER WANT TO GO TO JUPITER! You will be aged by the domino-gods!

It wasn’t until the end that I recognized the producer, Stanley Kubrick, the man who also produced Clockwork Orange (which I have never seen nor will ever see). I think if I had figured that out in the beginning Tim would have had a harder time convincing me that the movie was going to be ok.

I know it is most likely a very *deep* movie with lots of intellectual and philosophical suggestions about life and time, but I really can’t describe to you how scared I was at the end.. it was kinda akin to the feeling I got when accidently stumbling upon Poltergeist at age 7.
