Agreed as well - I think Hal is one of the most threatening adversaries in film. Kubrick is an absolute master of this type of thing. He really gets across the idea of a flat, emotionless THING you're seeing - how can you reason with that?

I have to turn my webcam away from my face when I'm not using it - it reminds me too much of Hal. I'm sure it's watching me, even when the PC's not switched on... :eek:
