Nolan is a director for people who think they are more intelligent than they actually are. He makes lowest common denominator blockbusters. Everything in his films is explained, his exposition dumps are terrible. His characters just stand around and explain the whole film to the audience so everyone gets it. He could just do some of these things visually but he is too afraid. His films are also badly edited most of the time and he uses the same colour palette which is grayish and blue.

>lowest common denominator blockbusters
I don't like Nolan but Nolan movies on average try way way harder to be smarter than 99% of blockbusters

>What went wrong
Well, they took Kip Thorne's advice and promptly ignored it, which is why the movie is chock full of scientific inaccuracies such as that planet close to the black hole where people aren't being fried to death by radiation.

I enjoyed it. I just think the concept of a global blight that is gonna eventually suffocate most life on Earth and the changes that causes to society should have gotten more love.

It´s the best Nolan movie matte... Both the Prestige and Inception are intersting and the plot is good but honestly they don´t make you feel a fucking thing despite involving allegadly dramatic moments that should make you care and somehow relate to the characters. I mean, i know we are supposed to feel something when Cobb finally sees his kids again, regardless of if they are real or a dream (the point being that THAT doesn´t matter because they are together) but the truth is i didn´t. Emotion had always been missing from Nolan films until Interstellar. I wouldn´t call it a masterpiece but is undoublty one of the best science fiction movies of the decade.

They could have done entirely without the blight plot device because it didn't go anywhere and they never explained it, nor did it need resolving in the end apparently. They should have just been like, there's too many people on Earth, a Malthusian collapse is inevitable, we gotta get the fuck out of here, and then built an FTL-capable space ship to go explore another solar system with wacky space drama ensuing.

But no. Instead the plant disease is miraculously cured off-screen with no explanation, we have to go through a space wormhole that exists next to Saturn or whatever the fuck and it's created by aliens and everyone is totally cool with this like it isn't a more important discovery than a second habitable world itself, and for some reason the super intelligent dickhead wormhole creators couldn't be assed to put it next to Earth for easier access, and apparently Plan B for space settlement involved Hathaway's character stuffing several thousand cryo embryos up her vagina and farting them out or something which would only make sense if the entire crew was female for that expressed purpose and scenario, etc. etc.

He is not trying to make lowest common denominator blockbuster. That's the result. I'm sure he tries to make a smarter films but he fails.

Not that much actually. This was the first movie by Nolan I genuinely liked after Prestige. Especially the final part (diving into the black hole) was tense as fuck.

>His characters just stand around and explain the whole film to the audience so everyone gets it.
He does this, yet half the audience still doesn't get it. You have to keep in mind that he's making big budget blockbusters for studios that are expecting a return on their investment and the general movie audiences can only really digest low brow Marvel garbage. I remember everybody saying that Inception was "too confusing" even though it was about 75% exposition.

Nolan and Villeneuve are the only directors making these massive budget, high concept sci-fi movies and you find the smallest things to bicker about.

the fact this may very well exist somewhere in space somewhere is comfy and makes me feel small >.<

Probably didn't have sufficient food, hypersleep pods, entertainment, docking stations,etc. The thing was designed to be self sufficient for an entire crew to stay in space for a long time. And it's way easier to get a small thing out of orbit than a big thing.

Same, I don’t feel the need to be a faggy contrarian about everything. It’s a good movie and I enjoyed it a lot. Like the post I linked, the whole “love transcends space and time” is cheesy, I can look past it because it’s a quality movie.

>>okay we made it to space but didn't solve the plant disease issue but oh well I guess we're done with that now
Did you watch the end? They didn't solve the blight on Earth because that was never their mission to begin with (as it was unsolvable). Their mission was to find an inhabitable planet to form a human colony on and continue the human species.

>we have space cars that can go single stage to orbit from any planet including ones with higher gravity than Earth
Those "space cars" were shuttle ships, you moron. You are literally the reason that Nolan has to put so much exposition into his movies, yet you still need MORE exposition because you're a fucking brainlet.

I don't think that saying Nolan's use of exposition and other complaints i had are small things. Having exposition infested script and having no faith in your audience is not a small thing. Nolan's script are very weak and his directing is not the best, especially his action scenes which are terrible. Villeneuve is very different director. He has exposition and uses it overabundantly but not as much as Nolan. Even Villeneuve dumbs down his films like certain moments in Arrival and Blade Runner but again he never has script with so much exposition as Nolan.

>Wasn't it dust storms?
No. They explicitly said it was a blight.

>Probably didn't have sufficient food, hypersleep pods, entertainment, docking stations,etc.
No, it's just a plot hole. The water world had more gravity than Earth, and the space car had no problem going to and from it single stage to orbit. The point is that they could have easily ferried lots of people/supplies into low Earth orbit with that same design of vehicle but didn't because Nolan wanted visuals. The logic goes out the window after they go through the wormhole to the other system. It's also not explained why the wormhole wasn't just put behind the moon or near Earth itself so people could easily fly through it. Especially considering the creators of the damn thing are hinted at being future hyper-advanced humans. There's no logic to any of it. People defend this movie because they're millennials and it's babby's first scifi for those that never watched Kubrick.

>Having exposition infested script and having no faith in your audience is not a small thing
Have you seen some of the criticisms itt? Read the post right above yours. The guy literally needs to be told through exposition the difference between a space ship and a cargo shuttle ship. There literally wasn't enough exposition for him.

Okay, let me explain to the mentally-impaired why this doesn't matter:
If you blast off into space because all the plants you eat are contaminated and dying off, and you don't fix the problem before going into space, then your food in space will continue to be contaminated. HURR DURRRRRR.

>Those "space cars" were shuttle ships, you moron.
You're apparently a sub-85 IQ mouth breather that probably votes Democrat, and can't grasp that them being shuttles doesn't fucking matter since it's already established canon that they're single stage to orbit vehicles. There was no reason to put everyone in a rocket leaving Earth and making a big stink about how special that is, when they have single stage to fucking orbit shuttles. Don't speak to me or my wife's son's threads ever again.

The Endurance had to leave earth at some point. There's no reason to put it into orbit, ferry people and supplies onto it with the space cars, and then have it accelerate into the wormhole when you could just have it accelerate from earth with people on it directly to the wormhole.

>Kubrick
If you took the visuals out of a kubrick film it wouldn't be a kubrick film. Remember that LITERALLY 10 minute stargate sequence that is ONLY visuals? 2001 is a movie that is mostly visuals, definitely far more visuals than Interstellar. Complaining that a director did something "for the visuals" is a really, really dumb argument.

>why the wormhole wasn't just put behind the moon or near Earth itself
The distance doesn't matter that much. Leaving orbit has always been the hardest part of space travel. If we've got hypersleep technology and AI like TARS anything within our solar system is easy enough to reach.

deep AND scientific! how does she do it

posts like this make me so happy that I'm not alone. I was so hyped for this movie and could have walked out when tars started cracking jokes during the launch. I don't even see many films anymore because they all seem to be made by one person and that person likes quips

Did Nolan really need to explain to you that the cargo shuttle ships wouldn't be able to hold the amount of fuel necessary for transporting all of that weight on interstellar journeys?

I always assumed too that the reason the wormhole was orbiting Saturn was because it had a weaker gravitational pull than Saturn and if it was behind the moon, it could have fucked with tides or pulled the moon in, whatever.

The predator drone scene was to highlight that coop didn't give any fucks about the cornfields. Dumbass.

Why did Cooper drop Amelia into the black hole? She pleaded him not to, she said Cooper led her to believe they had enough resources for everyone but Cooper replied with 'we agreed, 90 percent (honesty)' and he just fucking dropped her. Fucking cold as ice, hell of a twist Nolan.

It's a rectangle. It's not even black like the monolith, it's silver and reflective. It's also far shorter and much more fat. Why don't you argue that Murph's bookshelf is a reference to the monolith lol

Find a source from Nolan's mouth that TARS is a reference to the Monolith. There are hours of supplemental materials and literally even a book about Interstellar and none of them mention that. It's a passing resemblance due to coincidence.

Not a twist if the audience wants you to kill off an annoying character. Nolan should know this by now.

It had the most horrifying part of any movie in history. When the characters figured out that they lost 35 years my stomach actually hurt. Up to and during the intense lead up to this it was pure existential horror.

>No. That's not how it works it all.
Sweet rebuttal and hard facts.

>Did Nolan really need to explain to you that the cargo shuttle ships wouldn't be able to hold the amount of fuel necessary for transporting all of that weight on interstellar journeys?
Do I need to explain to you how ferrying crew members to an already built spacecraft floating in orbit doesn't require a Saturn 5 rocket for trailer shots when single stage to orbit craft is already canon and exists in the actual movie thus making the rocket scene and the lead up to it utterly pointless? Or are you actually under the completely incorrect fetal alcohol baby assumption that the rocket they left Earth in was the same spacecraft that took them to the other system?

Holy shit you're retarded. I'm not him but tars is definitely a homage to 2001. The monolith and to HAL.

most anons can only connect things visually here though.

Good thing they reminded you that exact thing was about to happen but you're too stupid to even pick up foreshadowing even when it bites you in the ass.

They drop TARS and then Coop sees their craft is too heavy so her drops Ranger 2, which is Amelia's craft. She freaks out, he replies "Newton's third law, you gotta leave something behind" with a deadpan face. She gets mad that he lied about having enough resources for both of them and he justifies his act with 'we agreed Amelia; 90 percent (honesty)'. He then drops her while she's pleading and crying and she falls into the black hole. Honestly it was a pretty memorable scene, don't know how you forgot it. Shows how Coop went bad after seeing Dr Mann and how his desire to return home overrode his need to do better by everyone.

>HAL
Are all AI a reference to HAL now? HAL has no physical body, is an antagonist and a sociopath. TARS has a physical body, and is a comedic supporting character. TARS has no red eye, not even any eyes, or numbering like HAL. I legit can't think of any way TARS resembles HAL other than both being AI in a movie about space travel.

This is the first scene you see TARS. ONLY the general shape resembles the monolith in any way, and not even identically, nor are there any other things that might point it's a reference, like the music (Ligeti's Requiem is a public domain song, anyone can use it!) or the scene composition, like the room appearing sterile and white like the bedroom in 2001 which wouldn't even be out of place for NASA. TARS is silver, reflective, marked with all kinds of insignia, textured, and has two screens. Nothing which the monolith has.

It's a unique robot design and nothing more. You also gotta remember the monolith is likely to get people to think things are a reference to it due to its extremely basic shape.

TARS and the other bot also never go crazy and are bros the whole movie

I'm convinced this lowbrow movie is made for the capeshit crowd. They were explicitly told in the movie that going to the water planet would cost them years. No, I don't need to sympathize with them, and I actually can't, because the impact of them doing it was completely explained ahead of time thus deflating any tension.

To make that scene even gayer, if they knew the rate of time dilation already, then they could have easily worked out via very basic math that the astronaut who landed on the water world before them had only been there a few minutes from their perspective. Thus, lacking any further transmissions from them, they should have realized the planet in question was dangerous and unsuitable. Beyond that, they should have also been able to see the "mountains" of water from orbit. We've been detecting water on other planets via infrared spectroscopy for decades. An entire planet of fucking water would thus not have mountains. Between the time dilation effects and gigantic perpetual tsunamis caused by gravitational pulling, it would be obvious as fuck that the planet was unsuitable for any colonization. But this movie is made to impress dumb people, so all of that logic goes out the window for a scene people like you would be impressed by.

Spoilers: Them sling-shotting around the blackhole would have cost them decades. Strangely, it doesn't happen in the movie. Also, Cooper would have never vanished beyond the event horizon from Amelia's perspective.

by the movie's own logic, they should have been able to PREDICT that the planet would have those exact tides just from knowing the same information that let them predict the time dialation, because both are caused by gravity.

>Do I need to explain to you how ferrying crew members to an already built spacecraft floating in orbit doesn't require a Saturn 5 rocket for trailer shots when single stage to orbit craft is already canon and exists in the actual movie thus making the rocket scene and the lead up to it utterly pointless?
Wtf are you even talking about. You wanted them to take a shuttle ship through a worm hole? Then what we're they going to do if the first of three planets wasn't inhabitable? Fly a shuttle craft to another galaxy?

But they both feature a NASA run but slacker savant millennial women and niggers.

While I didn't like the movie, it was undeniably more grounded in science. Probably because the author of the book did his homework whereas Nolan did not.

I'd pay $50 for a ticket to see Interstellar on IMAX 15/70 film again.

You're undeniably a morlock and lack any semblance of reading comprehension. The sentence after that, the one you conveniently didn't greentext, directly addressed this point.

You're arguing that a shuttle craft is useful for interstellar travel. Just give it up already. The craft had a very specific function.

Not a bad thing when you're explaining real science shit and not something you pulled out of your ass.

after they solved that gravity equation - what happened to the crop disease that was killing all the food sources? They still couldn't feed all the humans regardless if they solve some gravity equation or not, they still have to feed billions of people. So i don't get this wild optimism in the ending of the movie, how everyone is happy that they are the chosen elite to leave Earth and live a little bit longer in space, while eventually dying to, because without crops there is nothing to feed them

Hollywood makes nothing but good space movies

you two should get married

The love is the greatest power or dimension or whatever that nonsense was. Otherwise, it's fine.

they were able to build farms without blight on that trippy space station farm at the very end

i see that you are dying to see the movies based on the Hyperion saga.

The human race survived. I'm sure a fat ugly virgin wouldn't begrudge us space faring Chads that. Besides I'm sure that the meek really did inherit the earth and got to run it anyway they seen fit, while the brave were set afloat to an uncertain fate.

if they can isolate the farms in the space from the crop disease, why can't they just build greenhouses, domes back on Earth and just filter the air through, develop the disease resistant strains of crops using the gene-engineering? Space travel is not the solution to crop disease problems.

But bro, KIP THORNE says it's all scientifically accurate.

maybe the space station was just a staging ground near the wormhole to lead to other inhabitable planets then, I mean cooper finds ships at the end who could presumably take him there

No, I didn't and never did. That's just your asshole retard pimple faced NASCAR 8th grade education speaking. I said, repeatedly, which anyone can scroll up and see for themselves, that the Saturn 5 blast off from Earth was a pointless scene made for trailers because one hour later Nolan establishes there are single stage to orbit spacecraft capable of flying to any planet just as easily as your mom's busted ass 1995 Chevy Lumina is capable of moving her between her shifts at the various local stripclubs. I never said they were going through the wormhole in them. That's just your interpretation of what I said because your mulatto mother got knocked up by a burned out cokehead ex-Mexican wrestler and your tragic genetics left you unable to comprehend very simple sentences.

Physical reels are such a meme. Just use AMIABLE rips, they can be stored anywhere and look great.

Maybe it was just a dumb superfluous plot point that was never resolved and was used only for visuals.

>mulatto mother got knocked up by a burned out cokehead ex-Mexican wrestler and your tragic genetics left you unable to comprehend very simple sentences.
holy projection
have something to tell us user bby?

Anne Hathaway’s dialogue. Overacting across the board. We never meet the aliens.

Yes, 2001 is a far superior movie and the Holocaust didn't happen.

>Yes, 2001 is a far superior movie
ah yes,
>whoa, trippyyy
the movie.

the book was far better.

still, the soil of Earth is the unique thing, because of millions of years it was fertilized and saturated with living matter and it has living organisms living in symbiosis with roots of the plants. You can't just find some planet that has the same conditions to grow crops, there is no other planet as good as Earth

>We never meet the aliens.
they were future hoomans user

The script. Plain and simple.

the book is a direct novelization of the movie.

They got our current understanding of black holes right.
Any theoretical physicist who tells you that our understanding is complete, or even anywhere near the complete, is a lying brainlet fuck.

Fast forward another 30 years, and people will look back and say that Interatellars portrayal of black holes is dead fucking wrong.

I didn't know they went to Saturn in the movie
it's not 1:1 user.
maybe from the black hole data they had another scientific revolution and made enough advancements in science and engineering to solve the blight problem.

This is actually a solid point and why people who just go "hurr durr colonize Mars" don't seem to understand the soil of Mars cannot actually support our plant life. It's missing key ingredients that would have to be imported. So while the low-IQ crowd were so baffled by Matt Damon eating turd potatoes, him doing that in the movie was actually true to science. Human poo has the chemicals and minerals required to grow food that Martian soil lacks. And spoilers, every planet that isn't Earth will also lack them.

This.

Imagine 10,000 years ago on an island that was running out of resources. Some braved the unknown and some were content to stay. It's beautiful and both are 100% valid choices.

They think Miller's planet is seven years per hour but they realize the estimates were wrong (because accurate data takes years to collect in astrophysics, they were ballparking) Miller reported his planet had water but not how much.

THERE IS A LINE WHERE THEY SAY "THE PLANET WAS CLOSER TO GARGANTUA THAN WE THOUGHT."

They didn't orbit around Miller's planet to collect data about the planet because they thought the time it would take to orbit it at seven years per hour (it was nearby Gargantua causing the time dilation, not the planet itself) would be less efficient than orbiting gargantua at a distance to minimize time loss and then taking a quick trip to the planet surface in their ranger when the orbit neared Miller's. It would use more fuel but take less time. They also pointed out the black guy could also collect data about Gargantua while they were making the quick stop on the surface of the planet, which they would have to collect anyway. It was a reasonable plan of action. Rewatch the scene.

Because they were running out of nitrogen.
see >youtu.be/td-2X0Xx4Xw?t=53
They could fix the blight problem eventually but by that time they would be out of Nitrogen. Nitrogen is important because an atmosphere without Nitrogen would have too high a concentration of Oxygen and kill everyone.

>I never said they were going through the wormhole in them
That's exactly what they would've had to do though. You didn't think your minor gripe out well enough.

how do you go from some fringe astrophysical data to solving the concrete biological problems related to epidemic of crops? Recently we detected gravity waves, did that help to cure cancer? We saw the black hole recently - did that help people to cure Ebola? We got news that the Universe is expanding with acceleration, but how could this help people with AIDS? I mean, come on, man

crazier things have happened. sometimes it takes generations for things to be applied in different fields.

Yep, how is that Higgs boson discovery advancing our technology? Is the gas in your car got cheaper because of this discovery? Or your batteries live longer?

while you're not wrong the movie still sucks big time

if you can't understand how scientific discoveries don't directly translate to new technologies as fast as you want them to, then there's no point in replying to me.

1) The space ship they went through the wormhole in was already assembled and in low Earth orbit
2) They could have easily reached it in those shuttles without the need for an overhyped rocket launch scene
3) Nolan did a rocket launch scene anyway to make his movie appear more exciting in trailers
4) You're not intelligent enough to grasp all of the above despite it being repeatedly explained to you in baby language
5) Don't breed

Interstellar is where me and Nolan part ways bros.
Call me when Shane Carruth does space.

Dude, its not about me. Its about the priorities. If there is an asteroid going to hit your planet in 5 years, you better be developing the asteroid deflection technology, not developing some technology that generates the knowledge about the astrophysics of distant galaxy at the dawn of time. Some technologies are fucking useless, if they generate the knowledge that can't be applied in 1000 of years.

Carruth couldn't make a 200 million dollar space epic turn a profit. Nolan can.

they weren't researching black holes to solve the blight problem though. it wasn't until cooper realized TARS could compute stuff in there.

Women literally hate this movie because they don't understand it

You literally didnt pay attention to the NASA scene. Sad that all exposition still wasn't enough for you.

Edgy and contrarian! Upvote to you fine sir you win the internet today!

fucking kino

The asteroid in this analogy - is the crop disease.
The retarded research of astrophysics in this analogy - is lets send several crews of people into that saturn bound wormhole in hopes for some miracle but lets pretend that we are doing something usefull, while not solving the real problem that is killing us

You autistic fucks need to just go watch a Kip Thorne lecture and move on with your lives. You might even achieve that orgasm that Nolan apparently ruined for you. This is a science-fiction movie, not a peer-reviewed study.

Nolan would've had to introduce even MORE exposition just to please physics autists. I honestly think Kip Thorne is the reason for so much needless exposition. Hopefully Nolan never again makes the mistake of hiring an "expert" for a sci-fi blockbuster.

>lets send several crews of people into that saturn bound wormhole in hopes for some miracle but lets pretend that we are doing something usefull, while not solving the real problem that is killing us
They admitted that their plan was a last-ditch crap shoot. They were also receiving false data from one of their early missions (Matt Damon) that was leading them to believe that their mission was succeeding. This was all explained to the audience in one of the many expository scenes.

they were sending people to find inhabitable worlds, that seems worthwhile when your own world is dying. It just happened that they could get data on the inside of the black hole, my theory is that with this data, it spurned advancements in multiple fields of science just because of how astronomically groundbreaking it was (we don't know that it would be this crazy, it's a movie, I know that). Hell, with that data they were able to make a 5d tesseract for cooper to make a time loop and such. with that in mind it doesn't see so far-fetched that there could be advances made in other fields.

And it still failed, because they haven't solved the crop disease problem and just got some retarded info about how to launch rockets easiers, but that still doesn't solve the fact, that you can't feed all the people and billions will die from hunger, or probably riot and start wars, preventing any coordinated efforts to get into space with some gravity defying technology.

>because they haven't solved the crop disease problem
that's never explicitly stated

>that you can't feed all the people and billions will die from hunger
Their mission was never to feed billions of people. You literally weren't paying attention to the movie because you were trying to outsmart it, and the epic dialogue you were having with yourself in your head caused you to miss all of the explanations to all of your minor gripes.

>They could fix the blight problem eventually but by that time they would be out of Nitrogen. Nitrogen is important because an atmosphere without Nitrogen would have too high a concentration of Oxygen and kill everyone.
Michael Caine is saying the blight is eating the plants which give us oxygen, not that the blight is eating all the nitrogen. By leaving our nitrogen rich planet, we can avoid the blight.

This movie also points out a huge problem when your diversion of resources and priorities isn't managed for long term. Earth already seems like the last day of school and yet everybody is still studying for the big test.

Getting off and out to a new world should be priority #1, but how is a species supposed to do that without widespread panic and violence?

i kinda agree with this. nolan spend so much time building real models, like a real airplanes modified with IMAX camera rig, setup the perfect shot, then he shows it for 2-3 secs. why even bother

>Getting off and out to a new world should be priority #1, but how is a species supposed to do that without widespread panic and violence?
to be fair we only see a small part of Earth, and even that part is plagued by dust storms.
People in rural areas don't chimp out as hard.

>that's never explicitly stated
Because they forgot about it? Can you imagine a movie that starts with the info about some asteroid that is going to hit the planet, then mankinds sends the crew of 5 people to intercept the asteroid, then this crew finds in space some treasure with gold and rare metalls, but by the end of the movie everyone forgot about the asteroid and no one even mentions it in the happy ending where people are smiling on the top of gold and rare metalls?

except this crew didn't just find something that enriched themselves, it fundamentally changed an entire generation's understanding of math/science with the new data. your analogy sucks.

Wasn't they also talking about nitrogen content in the air. Besides starving to death, you'd think that suffocating could light a dire under all their asses.

They found some data, that was fundamentally irrelevant since by the moment they recieved it, the industrial, technological and scientific foundation of the civilisation was undermined to the core. They even teach that Americans never went to the Moon in schools. The planet is embroiled in hunger, wars, epidemics, and chaos. How in the midst of all this, they can somehow utilize the knowledge about some black hole and revitalise the entire civilisation with just some bits of information from probably malfunctioning clock of some psychotic daughter of the astronaugts, mumbling about her father speaking to her throug signs and ticks? This retarded plot deserves the movie on its own, without Cooper's adventure.

baby steps. maybe the Earth still is reeling, we only see the idyllic space station when Cooper comes back.

Shadilay to you too my fellow 'pede! kek

movies need to have a O'neil cylinder more

yeah, we see on that station those 0.0001% of Free-masons, who escaped the Earth, because they probably never even told the general population about the wormhole, aliens, the expeditions to space, the black hole, gravity equations. Only the elite clique of scientists and technocrats escaped Earth and left the rest of people to die in the dark. I can see it happening.

there I'm glad we could reach some kind of consensus

Then maybe this disease was engineered in the lab and that was the plan of the elites from the begining. That black hole travel was nothing but a simulation in virtual reality, while Cooper was in hypersleep. The moment he wakes up, after seeing the illusion that "he dove into the black hole" he is just being disconnected from the simulation. And the elites just executed their master plan, because they were always present in the past and in the future, with their quantum travel devices, scheming just like Avengers in the Endgame.
