[net.movies] 2010: Odyssey Two

A question to the panel:

   The upcoming movie version of "2010" is, I realize, to
be released in December. I also realize that the original
group of "Odsseiers" are back for their second trek out
to the gas giants. However, could someone in the know
answer the following question:
   Is Kubrick the Director????

   Should be a fun movie...I heard MGM spent a fortune
reconstructing the sets for the Discovery...it seems that
the original blueprints have been lost/destroyed/stolen/whatever.
So, they painstakingly blew up several hundred frames from the
original film, and built the new sets from those...talk about
going at it the long way....

Question: If all the world were brothers, 
          would you let one marry your sister...?
