I keep thinking this film doesn't get enough love. While nowhere near the groundbreaking movie that 2001 was, it's still a nice little space adventure.
I'm currently re-editing it to bring it a bit more in line with the style of the original. Here's the plan (I've done a lot of this work already):
I'm currently re-editing it to bring it a bit more in line with the style of the original. Here's the plan (I've done a lot of this work already):
- Gone are the voice overs
- Downplayed the cold war storyline
- Drastically reduce or completely remove the synth music and replace it with classical music
- Less chatting about what they're doing as they're doing it (bringing it more in line with 2001)
- SPACE IS SILENT (minus music)
- New opening (not really new, just the bit with Bowman confronting the monolith in Jupiter orbit from 2001)
- Title cards created to mimic that from 2001 (Jupiter Mission: Circa 2001, Earth: 7 Years Later, Jovian System: 28 months later)
- Removed a lot of earth based scenes
- Added some footage from Ad Astra and Jupiter Ascending
