2001: Beyond the Infinite
Summary
2001: Beyond the Infinite is a celebration of the 50th anniversary of one of the greatest films ever made. When 2001: A Space Odyssey opened on April 3, 1968, science fiction films were not well-regarded by critics. In fact, most considered them to be juvenile, with little intellectual or artistic value. Except for a few clever efforts like Forbidden Planet and Planet of the Apes, they were mostly low budget quickies that featured lurid monsters and cardboard rocket ships. The New York film critics hated Stanley Kubrick's epic space adventure, in part, because he defied their expectations by producing a literate work of science fiction. Ironically, their reviews didn't stop moviegoers from lining up at the box office. A few understood what Kubrick was trying to do. Some just went for the spectacle, while many others dropped acid and waited for the light show to take them on the ultimate trip. Today, audiences have come to regard 2001 as a masterpiece not only for its technical achievements in special effects but also for its hopeful, possibly prophetic vision of the future. Three-time Hugo nominee John L. Flynn documents the production of the film - from Arthur Clarke's initial short story through Kubrick's final edit - to look at the motion picture's critical reception and speculates on what the film was trying to say. He then concludes with interviews with several of the original cast members, including HAL 9000, and looks at the film's lasting legacy. A must-listen for science fiction fans and fans of the film.

Future Prime: Top Ten Science Fiction Films
Summary
What’s your favorite science fiction film? At the start of the new millennium, fans who attended science fiction conventions persuaded Flynn and Blackwood - a.k.a. “The Film Doctors” - to conduct a survey of the top 10 science films of the 20th century. They then embarked on a 10-year odyssey to gather thousands of fan votes. The result: a list of science-fiction films that probably contains at least one of your favorites. Each film was considered from its inception, to the pre-production period, through production and finally the audience’s reaction, reviews, critical responses and interviews with directors, producers and stars of the movies. An educational enlightening of the motion-picture industry, it shows that it truly all starts with a thought, a vision that when fed, honed, and supported becomes “where no man has gone before”.

Regret
Summary
I regret all of it, every damn thing I said to her. Now I might not have the chance to tell her everything. I may never get a chance to apologize to her.

Rafael has her, and I’ll do everything I can to get her back. I will slaughter anything in my past, because I won’t live with any regret.
