BTW, my favorite line from the book is the "Oh my god, it's full of stars!" one. I know it's a bit overrated, but that was a monumental point in the book.
To chime in, saw it when it came out. I had already been a sci-fi fan for most of my life, probably going back to "Men Into Space". I even made a point of seeing it in Germany, where HAL's "Leb' wohl, Dave" sounded especially poignant ("Farewell", literally "live well" as HAL is dooming Dave to imminent death).
To be honest, I don't remember that line being used in the movie, except maybe as a text transmission. Though it was very prominently used to great effect as the first spoken words in the sequel, "2010".
