Frequently up in space with Bowie
I loved 2001 too but I don't think I'd wanna have had anything harder than MJ if I was watching it. I'm guessing when Bowie says stoned he probably didn't mean weed, it was the 60's after all. It gets a little too intense near the end for me to have had anything too psychedelic, it's practically a DMT trip in itself with the monolith scene.
Extras is quality too, I guess you might have to be British to fully appreciate the stuff with Steve Merchant and Shaun Williamson(Barry) but those scenes always had me in tears. Basically he used to play a really pathetic character called Barry for about 10 years in an equally awful soap opera(Eastenders) that for some reason is popular in the UK. As you can imagine something like that is gonna just kill any chance you have at a proper acting career so IMO all of that added up is what gives the jokes that extra bit of hilarity.
Of course now I feel I have to link a video of another Sci-Fi great in the series.
