I want to get the optimal experience and I want things to look for if there are things where I might get confused. Or just things to look out for. Spoilers or otherwise.

    If you end up liking 2001 (1968) then I could also recommend Tarkovsky's Solaris (1972). It could be seen as the Soviet response to Hollywood and Tarkovsky's response to Kubrick. The themes in both movies are at odds with each other which makes for a nice comparative viewing.

    Especially if you like the slow boring scenes in 2001 where nothing happens. There's like 5 full minutes in Solaris simply driving down a highway while the character thinks.
