While it was not the stunning epic as "2001", I don't think it was ever trying to be that. For me the only thing "2010" was trying to do was make a commercial attempt to answer so lingering questions that had been generated in "2001". Whether it answered those questions or not I found the attempt rather entertaining. One of the questions that has been around for a long time is whether or not Jupiter was still born star. I like the way the movie tied that aspect in. Just like any other movie from that time period of release (1984) the "cold war" between the U.S. and Russia was a very timely issue. Any way just my opinion.
