Nov 7, 2014 5:49 PM UTC Director Christopher Nolan is well aware that _Interstellar_, which opens this week, is reminiscent of Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 sci-fi classic, _2001: A Space Odyssey_. “Whenever you’re talking about getting off the planet, _2001_ is somewhat unavoidable,” he told [_Entertainment Weekly_](http://popwatch.ew.com/2013/04/06/room-237-stanley-kubrick-shining-influence/2/). “But there is only one _2001_. So you don’t want to get too near to that.” However different the two movies may be, and however worthy of comparison critics deem Nolan’s vision to Kubrick’s, comparison is unavoidable. And [CutPrintFilm](http://www.cutprintfilm.com) has captured the films’ similarities in a trailer mashup called “2001: An Interstellar Space Odyssey.” The mashup uses audio from the _Interstellar_ trailer and visuals selected from _2001_ to accompany Matthew McConaughey’s southern drawl and Michael Caine’s [famously nasal](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX0F3kY3uxU) intonation. While HAL 9000 may be conspicuously absent from theaters this weekend, that won’t keep science fiction fans away. Box office predictions [expect](http://www.forbes.com/sites/scottmendelson/2014/11/04/box-office-preview-its-not-interstellar-versus-big-hero-6/) _Interstellar_ to fall somewhere in the $50 million range on its opening weekend. **MORE:** [Photos: Go Behind the Scenes of _Interstellar_](http://time.com/3546639/interstellar-photos-behind-the-scenes/) [Review: _Interstellar_ Shows the Wonder of Worlds Beyond](http://time.com/3545770/interstellar-movie-review/) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3572647/interstellar-2001-a-space-odyssey-mashup/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3572647/interstellar-2001-a-space-odyssey-mashup/"},"headline":"Watch This Clever Mashup of Interstellar and 2001: A Space Odyssey","datePublished":"2014-11-07T17:49:26.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:14:27.821Z","description":"A sci-fi classic meets its modern offspring","url":"https://time.com/3572647/interstellar-2001-a-space-odyssey-mashup/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Space","viral","Movie trailers","Trailers","Christopher Nolan","Science fiction","Interstellar","mashups"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc023aa60268622ed/698767bbe53aba30074d5ca9/screen-shot-2014-11-07-at-12-47-42-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eliza Berman","jobTitle":"Berman is a senior editor at TIME.","url":"https://time.com/author/eliza-berman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc023aa60268622ed/698767bbe53aba30074d5ca9/screen-shot-2014-11-07-at-12-47-42-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Screen Shot 2014-11-07 at 12.47.42 PM","caption":"","creditText":"YouTube","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3572647/interstellar-2001-a-space-odyssey-mashup/","name":"Watch This Clever Mashup of Interstellar and 2001: A Space Odyssey"}}]}] ```
