was behind one of my top 10 favorite movies. 2001: a space odyssey. how i loved that movie. far more than the sequels. and here, in no particular order, my ten…
- 2001: a space odyssey
- blade runner
- close encounters of the third kind
- et
- star wars (the first 3, not the last 3)
- lord of the rings
- blues brothers
- caddyshack
- star trek (tv and movies. i know. some were cheesy… but who really cares?)
- mad max/road worrier series. (before mel became a household name)
there are several more, but the 10 above would stop me in times square if they were playing. i like space. i like the thought of space. i wish i could meet an alien, but if they are smart, they’ll never come here…
mr. clarke. rest in peace. know that you influenced the minds of many, myself included.

Along with his books, I liked just reading his interviews or other random thoughts on things. He had a way of taking the WAY OUT THERE and brining it right down here that no one else did.
