Space Food Sampler
Astronauts get all the perks. They get cool suits, awesome space vehicles, alien encounters (both romantic and work related), and awesome chow. Nowadays they get some good food, but in the beginnings it was awful - gelatin cubes and toothpaste food. And then Pillsbury decided to kick it up a notch and create Space Food Sticks - a "non-frozen balanced energy snack in rod form containing nutritionally balanced amounts of carbohydrate, fat and protein." Yum. And then they released it to the public. Yay. And now we have found a box of space goodies that includes 2 Space Food Sticks (painstakingly reproduced from the original recipe). You'll also get a bunch of freeze dried goodies and some spacey drink mixes. And you get a neato little fridge magnet which has a reproduction of an actual Space Food Sticks advertisement. Why? Cause retro food is fun (so long as it is not "retro" because it's been in grandma's pantry since WWII). Buy it Now!

Kubrick makes a good film, with an ending not really supported by the rest of the picture, at least not from a conventional viewing.

One of the most mind blowing, original, amazing...words fail me to describe the amazing-ness of this movie, except to say it has a very comfortable spot at the top of my list of the greatest movies of all time.

Very ambitious, and indeed, head and shoulders above other old sci-fi movies in terms of its visual craftsmanship, the grandeur of its futuristic vision, the amount of imagination exerted in its attempts at prediction... but that's really not saying much. It's still rather contrived and somewhat meandering. It has had immense cultural impact, but as with the rest of Kubrick's work, I consider it grossly overrated. I like the last part of the film the best.

When I first saw it in '68 I would have given it a 100 but in retrospect an 85 is generous. At the time it was great.
