By the way, the english freebase keys were automatically generated  
only when the topic display name was unique.  For "2001: A Space  
Odyssey", most likely there was no key created because there were at  
least two topics with that name.

We will be working on increasing the number of these keys in the near  
future through more clever (or perhaps less conservative) algorithms.
