There is no such thing as "bad taste". There is no objective standard for that.
At any rate, you concentrate on different aspects of the movie. I actually care about those "WTF" moments. Never saw 2001 but I've heard enough about it that I think the entire plotline from start to end has been well and truly spoiled for me at this point. Man becomes giant space baby, yeah, I guess. It seems more like weird just for the sake of being weird than actually meaning anything... like... at all. I also thought the whole architect speech in the second Matrix movie was pretty silly.
Again, different tastes. I actually WOULD like an explanation for why the sun is "going out".

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
