i think that was up to the Kubricks. anything related to the 1st film, anyhow.
Waters stated in a
Rockline interview on February 8, 1993, that he'd wanted to use dialogue samples from
2001: A Space Odyssey on the album, specifically
HAL 9000's 'dying' monologue.
Stanley Kubrick, the film's director, turned him down on the basis that it would open the door to many other people using the sound sample.
[13] Others think that Kubrick refused because Pink Floyd had not allowed him to use music from
Atom Heart Mother in his film
A Clockwork Orange.
[14] Waters did use the samples of HAL describing his mind being taken away when performing live – specifically at the beginning of "Perfect Sense, Part I" during his
In the Flesh tour, after Kubrick's death, and it was finally incorporated into the
Amused to Death album for the 2015 remaster / remix release.
