Re: Interstellar Oscar Chances
Just curious, if Interstellar does win Best Picture.... how will you react? **expects a bunch of gifs** I'll be a bit disappointed. I know that a film like Slumdog Millionaire did not deserve to win in 2008 over films like Wall-E and The Dark Knight but rewarding Nolan for a film less deserving (IM...

Re: What is your interpretation of the ending? SPOILERS AHE
If time is a physical dimension for the 5D beings, then a specific action or catastrophe that might occur to humanity would be, to them, like seeing a forest fire or ecological disaster. Except this particular forest fire might just wipe out humanity altogether. It brings to mind the notion that ti...

Re: Was TARS the real protagonist of Interstellar?
After watching the film 7 times in theaters, I'm really starting to think that Nolan intended for TARS to be seen as the main character. I think the reason TARS wasn't marketed for the film was due to the fact that he didn't have the same type of established appeal that Matthew already has in pop-c...

Re: Controversial opinions about Interstellar
Damon was the standout of the supporting cast. I loved how during the struggle between him and Cooper, he didn't shout or get furiously pissed off. He had this hauntingly calm way of speaking. It was brilliant. It really separated him from the typical antagonist, because it conveyed the point that ...

Re: How does Cooper deduce this *spoiler*?
Let's consider the chronology: - Cooper enters black hole - Cooper enters Tesseract. Cooper is confused and unsure how to navigate this new space - Cooper sees his daughter from the other side of the book case, feels despair - Cooper tries to make himself stay, fails. More despair - Cooper and TARS ...

Re: Interstellar's Soundtrack
Notice how the tempo in 'Mountains' literally starts doubling in speed. Telegraphic of course the traumatic loss of time while they are on the planet. So good.Ruth wrote:Mountains <3 <3 <3

The clicking clock in "Mountains" is so great.

Re: Dr. Mann
Dr. Mann and Prof. Brand are more aptly stated as antagonists -- they erect huge obstacles from Cooper's central goal -- to return to his daughter.

Re: Interstellar Analysis: Christian Symbolism/Themes
OK, I'm not religious but I am literary (I hope!). Christian allegory has existed since the Middle Ages. Paradise Lost, etc., etc., down to Francois Mauriac and C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. It exists in movies too (Robert Bresson and Luis Bunuel for example). I do think, after having seen Interst...

Re: Dr. Mann
1.) Why does Mann want to kill Cooper? If he was desperate to be rescued, why does he murder his rescuers? 2.) If he misses human companionship so much, why does he want to go to Edmund's planet where he'll be alone with the embryos? Thanks! 1) Mann knows that Cooper wants the ship. They have mutua...
