[Closed] Interstellar, still awesome 😎

Agree not often a movie can engage me as I am a miserable old ****

I'll be waiting for my big tv and surround sound before I watch it again, awesome film

If you've got 15 mins, this is worth a watch about how they made the music

“There’s millers Planet”

Blimey 😳😳😳

Yeah, can only agree - one of the few films  (11) that i own,  sounds amazing played through my krk sub/krk rokit speakers, on take off and throughout the movie the score (hans zimmer) really hits the spot/knocks the breath out of me (should prob turn the sub down a bit but **** it, it sounds so good at heart palpitation sound levels)

Thank you retro83!   Really enjoyed that!

Can I be the one.

It was dull, drawn out and predictable.

Still not seen it!

Im impressed you worked out the bookcase so early.

You can, it’s your opinion...

Enjoy that bit.

Wasn’t too difficult there’s massive hints.

Anyway l’ll leave the thread for those that enjoy it.

“Frozen Cloud”

Queue Music..

Awesome !

🚀🚀🛰

”Tell us about your world”

One of my all time faves.  Weirdly it almost disappointed at the cinema but blew me away on blu ray.

Love the music, the above video has left me realising my lack of talent

I like Sci-Fi that makes me feel uneasy about space........Interstellar had that in spades. Aliens and beasties don't phase me, unending vacuums and loneliness being the only person on a planet, that's scares the bejeebus out of me.

“cooper station”

Do not go gently into the night...

I definitely chose the right course of action for tonight .. 🧠🛰👽🍷

I really like it, but it has a very romantic take on black holes, the reality of crossing the event horizon would be a a little more abrupt, and terminal.

I'm with the sponge on this one; thought it was decent enough, but got bored by the big waves bit and gave up.

Maybe I should give it another go

Literally an awesome film.

Joining the choir here.  The music score is completely bonkers good.  The cheese was manageable.  A feast.

I'm hoping that I can find a plausible excuse to bunk off of the school PTFA barn dance tomorrow night, in order to stay home and watch Interstellar, on my own, with some cheese and port. Sounds heavenly.

Alas, I fear . . .

I agree with Drac. Predictable and slow. Scene setting at the start was good though… and final scenes done very well… but the middle section was so dull.

Didn't help that we watched Arrival the same week. Now, that is awesome. Including the sound.

Ahh, Arrival is tonight’s film 👀👽👽👾

I also love it, the score does add a tremendous amount to it. Fabulous.

The bit on Cooper station with Murph always has me greetin’ like a wain 😭

I tend to fast-forward past the ice planet stuff with Matt Damon, but the rest of it I absolutely love.

CASE and TARS really steal the show however -

“I have a cue light I can use to show you when I'm joking, if you like.”

”that might help”

”yes, you can use it to find your way back to the ship after I blow you out the airlock.” [blink]

Hollywood Physics.

Agree with OP, great film.

Don't care about potential scientific inaccuracies (I'm a scientist), it's a film not a research paper.  Certainly didn't detract from my enjoyment.  Goes to show it is the craft behind the film, and the way it is approached that is important, not the scientific accuracy.  It is a story, not a documentary.  Half the time I think people just pipe up about these things to make themselves try and look clever anyway.  Scientists are pretty good at that, generally :-).

Compare it to something like The Core.  Terrible scientific inaccuracies, but that's not the reason it's not a great film.  The reason is that it is just not very good.

Hollywood Entertainment

FTFY

Bloody love that movie. I always really liked some of the on-board shots. Basically looked like they’d planted a Go Pro onto the outside of the craft but somehow looked better than anything before. The music (plus story behind it “write something about a fathers relationship with his daughter”, etc) are amazing too.

Thanks for posting that wee film up retro83 .

Excellent.

Hollywood Physics.

Most films are. Dunno how many lead to research papers though (I'm not a physicist so I don't know if its any good. In true STW fashion I haven't bothered to read it) Gravitational lensing by spinning black holes in astrophysics, and in the movie Interstellar 

Don't reckon much to 'Hollywood History' either...

You know - Ben Affleck winning the Battle of Britain and so forth.

Hollywood Physics.

Meh, of course, but TBH if Neil Degrasse Tyson and Kip Thorne were alright with it, it's fine by me!

Welcome!

I heard 'How Great Thou Art' played on that organ once, and there is a deep bass note I think just as you go into the chorus that literally shook the place. I mean, I've seen Leftfield play live and the Valve sound system, and it was a bit like that but somehow much more intense.  Very very impressive instrument.

An excellent film, beautifully shot with an incredible soundtrack, great casting and some great acting.

Certainly one of the best sci-fi film out there.

One of the best scenes for me was an early shot of Cooper leaving his farmhouse for the Launch Site.. The shot of him driving away from the house, camera hung low on the pickup, driving fast through the tunnel of cornfields down the dusty lane, tears streaming from his eyes, and the motion/movement of the pickup imitating a rocket after launch..

Such a lot of thought went into that scene, then later that same scene is repeated but this time on the rocket...

🤩

No me as well. It was a mess. Matthew MacConahey's unintelligible "durbah, durbah durbah" didn't help. Christopher Nolan has got to be one of the most overrated directors around.

I enjoyed it but don’t understand why the gravitational forces didn’t destroy the ship the first time.

Try turning down your seriousness by 30% when you watch fiction.
