That's my favourite scifi movie, and I also think it's one of the best movies ever, up there with The Godfather.
However my mention was jokingly done about the double and triple standards for putting a movie with high rating in a guilty pleasure list.
In any case, 2001 is one of those movies that many people cringe about when mentioned. It's not the standard narrative movie like The Godfather, The Green Mile, Citizen Kane and other people's favorites. For the longest time I was alone in my circle of movie fans in praising 2001 and to this date I've failed to see it with any of my friends.
