For July's first Patreon Bonus episode, we continue our conversation with Virginia Smith and try to determine if HAL gets to become "a real boy."
The differences in how Kubrick and Hyams treat HAL and Discovery. How both directors deal with space and Space, and somehow create that Odyssey sense of wonder.

From "Short Circuit" to "The Goonies," the power of DIY fandom and the beauty of coming together at conventions to share the love.
Plus: the shocking lack of HAL merchandise, and a special announcement from Virginia about an upcoming HAL-related project...
