OK Folks, here's a long overdue update...

After weeks of experimentation & testing, i've decided to scrap Disc 2. I will not be making a 2001 edit using the North/Goldsmith Score.

Why? you might ask.

Quite simply, I don't like it...at all

The score itself is very good, don't get me wrong. But it would have been better in something other than 2001. It makes the movie feel like a bad '50's sci-fi B movie. i just couldn't get used to it. I totally understand why Kubrick made the decision not to include it.

I tried to like it...I did. I wanted to like it. I wanted this project to be something that I could take pride in. However, I just can't stand behind it anymore.

I know that there are those of you who disagree, and others who will want to see it anyways...If anybody cares to pick up this project, i'll be happy to send you a copy of the North Score, as well as the notes that I have as far as where each piece goes in the movie.

as always, my PMs are full...you can email me directly Devilman1369@gmail.com
