* The Moonwatcher's tribe are quite [[TheWoobie woobies]] before the Monolith gifted them intelligence: pathetically looking for scraps of food as they co-exist with tapirs that aren't scared of them, being easy snacks for leopards and getting driven away from their water pound by a smaller but nastier tribe of ape-men. The establishing shot of the night scene before the Monolith's arrival shows a rock formation with a cave entrance, only to then cut to a growling leopard not too far away and reveal that the ape-men are actually trying to sleep in a much more vulnerable spot outside: the implication is that the feline scared them out of their own home as well. What an awful day.
