From Jonah about the bookcase:
"The connection between us and our kids and us and our parents and the fragility of that. It's no coincidence that it's a bookcase that is the symbol for that sequence in the film, because there's no better symbol for the repository of information passed down from one generation to the next. Look at anyone's bookcase at home, no matter how modest, and you're going to find a book that contains wisdom or ideas or a language that's at least a thousand years old. And the idea that humans have created a mechanism to time travel, to hurl ideas into the future, it sort of bookends. Books are a time machine."
I LOVE IT! I'm so happy about this film. So very, very happy. http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/11/08/ ... r-spoilers
