* [[Alas, Poor Villain]]: HAL 9000. You can see Bowman basically tearing up as he lobotomizes him.
* [[Contested Sequel]]: ''[[
* [[Fanon]]: See the [[2001: A Space Odyssey
* [[Fan Dumb]]: If you dare to say you dislike this movie then there are several fans who will label you an idiot who can't enjoy a movie unless it has fart jokes and an explosion every five minutes, or at the very least tell you that you "Just didn't get it".
* [[Freud Was Right]]: Long phallic space-ships, docking bays opening up to receive them, music climaxing as the ship touches down, narrow slit windows with red light shining through, women emerging from doorways that look like vaginas, the Star Child. Really, this list could go on forever.

** Double-hell, this looks better than anything in CGI.
** And the technique used to create the "Beyond the Infinite" sequence -- a [[Camera Tricks|camera trick]] known as "slit-scan" -- was impressive enough to be reused well into the early CGI era. It was later used for [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]'s "This is the place to be" ads of the early 1970s, as well as the [[Whooshing Credits]] for [[Superman (
* [[Weird Al Effect]]: As time progresses, it becomes more likely that the first time somebody will see something related to the film will be as a [[Shout
* [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made
