A science-fiction/drama series created by James Wong and Glen Morgan, that lasted one season, and aired from 1995 to 1996. Follows a group of marine cadets as they form a military squadron called the "Wildcards" and take on extremely dangerous. The "main" character is Lt. Nathan West, who signed up because he wasn't allowed to go on a colonizing mission with his girlfriend Kylen Selina. Unfortunately, the craft Kylen was on was attacked by a race of unknown beings, who then come to be named "Chigs". In the final episode of the series, the Chigs struck a tentative peace treaty with the Earth government, but used a captured Chig to assassinate a group of high-ranking Earth delegates. The Wildcards managed to find the transport ship Kylen was being carried on, due to a trade agreement between the aliens and the Earth government, but the squadron were attacked by Chigs. In the end, two of the recruits were facing possible death as their escape pod drifted towards the surface of a planet, one recruit sacrificed himself to save the lives of everyone, and Nathan West finally found Kylen. In short, one of the greatest science-fiction shows ever.
"We thought we were alone. We believed the universe was ours. Until one night in 2063, on a Earth colony 16 light-years away, they struck. Now we're at war. We fight when called, in space, on land, and at sea. To lose this war means more than defeat; to surrender is to never go home. All of us must rise to the call... above and beyond."

A film directed by THE Stanley Kubrick in 1968. The film is based of a book of the same name penned by none other than the author Arthur C. Clarke. both the director and author worked togethor to create the main story, as it was a collaborative effort by Kubrick and Clarke.
When first released in theatres, it was a film that you either loved or hated. Today 2001 is considered to be a masterpiece in the art of film. main criticizms are based on the fact that the film is too abstract, not enough dialogue, too much classical music, and boring for the average-joe-blow. The only part that may hold any truth is how abstract the film is.
If you want to know what the fuck is going on in most of the film, i highly recommend you read the book first. Once you read the book, and then watch the film, you would have to be one of those people who thought Transformers 2 was the best film of all time in order to think 2001 A Space Odyssey is a bad film.
The Basic Premise of the film revolves around a discovery of a monolith on the moon, and the adventures of Captain David Bowman and the HAL 9000 of the Discovery I who travel to jupiter under orders from Earth Space Command.
If you love Science-Fiction, any of Stanley KUbrick's films, or if you just like to see good films, then i would highly recommend you see this.

Trailer-trash: "2001: A Space Odyssey is a bunch of garbage, Iron Man 2 is the best movie of all time, hey you wanna have a threesome with my sister later?"
Model Citizen of Society: (takes out gun and shoots trailer-trash in the head) "no im not a redneck, and Iron Man 2 sucks balls." you deserve to die for insulting a genius like Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C Clarke. Your kind of people make me want to puke."
