[net.movies] 2010 letdown -- VELCRO, etc.

The velcro trick was used in 2001 in the Pan Am flight to the space station (and
perhaps not as obviously in part 2 of the flight, to the moon).  Remember the
stewardess (her hair in a all wrapped up) walking up a wall in a circular
portal to enter a differently-oriented corridor?  It was not obvious in the
movie that she had velcro on her feet, but that is what it was.

Second, in 2010, I forgot to mention one seen I really liked -- when the two
first entered the Discovery, and Alexi pulled up his visor.  I found I was
really into what that must have been like -- 9-year-old cold air in a ship 
loating in space -- with rotten food!  Together with the pant-pant scene that
precedes it, this was one of the best parts of the movie for me.

Boy, is my face red about all those typing errors -- especially "seen"
instead of "scene"!
