For our March Movie of the Month, we are going with 2001: A Space Odyssey. We usually pick something that airs on TV this month, but there was no interest in a specific movie. So we are going with this classic Sci-Fi movie. I hope you have it on hand or can easily get access. ---- Movie Summary *Mild Spoilers*

"I'm sorry Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that." Creepy, very creepy. There is just so much hard sf in this film and sound science. It should be mandatory viewing for anyone attempting to do a science fiction film before they take the lens cap off the first camera. I put it into my Netflix queue and should get it in a few days.
