It's from the movie 2010. I saw it on cable about a month ago. The monolith on/above Jupiter is made of stars.

Not really a kid. Not really an airbag. WHAT THE HELL IS IT?!? Who's asking? Are you French? An airbag is a safety device in a car that inflates during a collision and blocks you from smashing your head into the dashboard or steering wheel!

Look in the news archives, I'm sure you'll be able to find it there.

I remember it: they look at the HUGE monolith with the scope and they say it. Maybe it's in 2001 as well. I haven't seen that movie in ages.

No. That phrase is not in 2001: The Space Odyssey. At least not in the movie. It probably WAS in the book, and it's definitely in "2010" - both book and the movie. On the other hand, "2010" sucked. It's a crappy movie made from a crappy novel.

It's originally in the book 2001, and the quote makes an appearance in each of the next three books as well (sometimes corrupted).

Personally, I think everyone should be required to read Jack L. Chalker so they can see two things:

(1) The Matrix is a ripoff of The Wonderland Gambit; and
(2) There should be a Well World movie.

I'd say the Matrix is a ripoff of Lem's Futurological Congress. Blah.

Actually, the Matrix is a ripoff of A Ghost In The Shell AND EVERY OTHER FUCKING MOVIE EVER MADE. If only it had just a SHRED of originality I could have partially enjoyed it.

Well, yes, I agree with you. On the other hand, what would you expect of a movie made by AOL?..

"Oh my god, it's full of stars"

This phrase is said at the end of 2001, after the guy gets sucked into the monolith and they have a reeeeely long psychadelic image sequence (hyperwarp to the edge of the universe?), he says "Oh my god, it's full of stars".

(I remember this very distinctly).

I remember reading that. it was an excellent book, an' I preffered it to the film. I have never read the two sequels though, because I can't find number two in a second hand bookshop (Which is the only place I buy my books:)

Does anyone else enjoy reading that kinda old sci-fi? Witten by Russian dudes with weird names.

And yet you're wrong. Here's a quote from http://www.dvdtalk.com/dvdsavant/s42001goof.html :

I recently bought a new copy of 2001: A Space Odyssey. It's been a while since I last saw the film but it seems to be edited to bits. What happened to Dave Bowman's famous line 'My God, it's full of stars!' ? If this is an edited version can you tell me where I can buy a proper copy?
-- Andy Struthers, Dumfries, Scotland

The dialog line 'My God, it's full of stars!' is from 2010, not 2001, which is why you didn't hear it. Stanley Kubrick trimmed 2001 and added some titles to it only a few days into its 1968 release, but honest to goodness, 2001 is full length.

I know for a fact that it's in the book. I read it a couple months ago. It says something about how the last transmission Earth ever got from David Bowman was "My God, its full os stars." That is, of course, because he was looking into an intetrgalactic gateway.
