How "Thought Provoking" do you think this movie will be?

Christopher Nolan's 2014 grand scale science-fiction story about time and space, and the things that transcend them.

By thought provoking, I mean in regards to the experience one undergoes when watching a movie like Memento, Inception, The Matrix, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Cloud Atlas, etc.

Do you think this will top his previous efforts? Personally, if I had to make a wild guess, I'd say it will. Just look at what we know so far, and imagine the possibilities.

The story involves time travel and alternate dimensions and sees a group of explorers travel through a wormhole. It will depict a heroic interstellar voyage to the furthest borders of our scientific understanding. The script is based on scientific theories developed by Kip Thorne, a theoretical physicist, gravitational physicist and astrophysicist at Caltech.

As 'thought-provoking' everyone thought Inception was.

Less than 2001. Greater than or equal to Inception.

I actually think it will be less complex than Inception. For all we know, it might be played straight like an action-sci-fi and all the thematic concepts are generated from more human themes and emotions.

What I meant was that he doesn't make stuff that isn't thought provoking.
