In this episode, Pat & Mike dive into 1968 and look at the most popular films that year, with particular focus on the iconic and controversial "2001: A Space Odyssey" by Stanley Kubrick & Arthur Clarke. We discuss the influence it had on movies such as Star Wars and we look at the love/hate relationship moviegoers and critics have with this science fiction classic. Since posting this episode there has been a large monolith found in the Utah desert. It has disappeared and has re-appeared in Romania (at least one like it). Coincidence? Maybe, maybe not.
