Stanley Kubricks “Rumrejsen år 2001” har både sine fans, der mener, at det er en af verdenshistoriens bedste film, og sine skeptikere, der ikke kan se det store i to en halv time med rumskibe, der svæver rundt… og rundt… og rundt.
De førstnævnte kan nu glæde sig, idet Warner Bros. har fundet 17 minutter med nye og tilsyneladende færdigredigerede scener fra filmen, som Kubrick tog ud.

Optagelserne skulle angiveligt være i perfekt stand og bl.a. inkludere nye scener fra starten med “Dawn of Man”, en hel ny sekvens, hvor Dave Bowman leder efter en antennedel samt en scene, hvor HAL stopper kommunikationen mellem Discovery og Pooles rumfartøj.
Det er endnu uvist, om Warner Bros. planlægger at bruge de nye scener til en evt. kommende ny udgivelse af filmen.

All right... as most of you Stanley Kubrick fans are no doubt already aware, Warner Home Video has released Blu-ray Disc versions of 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, Eyes Wide Shut and Full Metal Jacket. Universal recently released Spartacus, albeit in a mediocre Blu-ray edition with a substandard quality HD master. Meanwhile, Sony's done a fine job of Dr. Strangelove on Blu, and Criterion is preparing a Blu-ray release of MGM's Paths of Glory on 10/26. So a lot of you have probably been wondering, where are Warner's Blu-rays of Lolita and Barry Lyndon?
Well... that's a question we here at The Bits have been asking the folks at Warner Home Video for months now. And today, they surprised us with an answer! Yes, both Lolita and Barry Lyndon are currently being prepared for Blu-ray Disc release by the studio in 2011. And here's the even better news: They hinted that the films are going to be available both as singles AND as part of a new Stanley Kubrick Blu-ray Collection! We're waiting on more details, and no doubt it will be a while before the release gets officially announced, but it appears that Warner plans to really do their Kubrick catalog up right on Blu-ray in the new year!
What with Criterion having licensed Paths of Glory from MGM for DVD and Blu-ray release, could they have obtained rights for Kubrick's The Killing and Killer's Kiss from MGM as well? And with so much new Kubrick Blu-ray product on the way, might Universal see fit to give Spartacus a fresh high-def transfer and re-release the title in a better Blu-ray edition? (Believe me, judging by the hundreds of e-mails we've gotten in recent weeks, a LOT of you would love for that to happen. Rest assured, I strongly suggested it to the studio on my recent visit.)
In any case, the next year or so should prove to be very exciting for fans Stanley Kubrick who, like us here at The Bits, are eager to see ALL his films in high-definition!
Jeg spekulerede tidligere i en "fuld" Kubrick boks, men det vil nok kræve en del, da der jo er flere studier og rettighedshavere bag. Men man kunne da håbe, eftersom det ER lykkedes på dvd siden.
