First appearing in the 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Stanley Kubrick is one of the very finest film-makers the world has known, and 2001 his finest accomplishment. RT FinnFolklorist: HAL 9000 (or simply HAL or Hal) is a fictional artificial intelligence character and the main antagonist in Arthur C. I'm glad to see that this film is in the IMDB top 100 films, and only wish that it were even higher. I know that's what most audiences seem to want these days, but Kubrick isn't going to let us off so lightly. 1) The EYE HAL 9000 is uniquely identifiable because of the great wide lens that serves as 'his' eye.

There's no neat resolution, no definitive full stop, because then the audience could stop thinking after the final reel. Lets break it down into PARTS 1) The Eye 2) The Body 3) The Details. Kubrick and Clarke have started the task of envisioning it, now it's up to the audience to continue. Yes, the ending is weird and hard to comprehend - but that's the nature of the future. Besides the incredible special effects, camera work and set design, Kubrick also presents the viewer with a lot of food for thought about what it means to be human, and where the human race is going. It is our shame that the year 2001 did not look like the film 2001, not Kubrick's. The film's only notable mistake was the optimism with which it predicted mankind's technological (and social) development. To create such an incredibly detailed vision of the future that 35 years later it is still the best we have is beyond belief - I still can't work out how some of the shots were done. but there it is in 2001, and that's just the start of the journey. Remember that when this film was made, man still hadn't made it out to the moon. The film's greatest strength is in the details. The reason it is slow, and filled with minutae is because the aim was to realistically envision the future of technology (and the past, in the awe inspiring opening scenes). It was so far ahead of its time that humanity still hasn't caught up. This is the film that put the science in "science fiction", and its depiction of space travel and mankind's future remains unsurpassed to this day. Brother Eye (Post-Crisis Version) Both AI systems are fully in character, not bloodlusted. Most viewers are able to see the intelligence and sheer virtuosity that went into the making of this epic. HAL 9000 (Only one version of HAL 9000 according to the novels/comics) vs. Thankfully, those that cannot appreciate Kubrick's accomplishment are still a minority. This 32GB USB 3.0 drive naturally has a red eye that lights. Finally I understand why most Hollywood productions are so shallow and vacuous - they understand their audience. The evil computer from 2001: A Space Odyssey has been miniaturized and is ready to do your bidding. For anybody to dismiss 2001: A Space Odyssey as "boring" they must have no interest in science, technology, philosophy, history or the art of film-making. Sometimes reading the user comments on IMDB fills me with despair for the species.
