I have a bigass empty wall. I'd like to fill it with a nice poster. I especially like the stay morse code reference in posters/art. Anyone have recs for good interstellar posters?

This post will be stickied right after posting, and unstickied after a month when a new post will be created.

When Mann blew himself up and Cooper had to match the spin of the Endurance so they can dock, we see that the top of the ranger is open.. How did Cooper not die? He didn't have his helmet on! Am I missing something?

My favorite scene in Interstellar is easily the waves scene when they’re on Miller’s planet. When Brand is taking her sweet time and the other guy is just standing and staring at her like I’m sorry, but he deserved to die lol. Cooper’s “those are mountains… they’re waves,” accompanied by the immaculate score still gives me the chills to this day.

I wanted to create a thread where ppl can post links to their favourite pods/videos about interstellar. I’ve heard some good ones. But I wonder if there’s some out there that are not found by simply searching “interstellar” bc it’s on a pod that isn’t dedicated to it for example.

I know there’s some great YouTube videos as well. My absolute favourite is by Storystreet titled “The Cinematic Feeling of Interstellar”. It’s like an hour long and it’s phenomenal. Anyway please post any you wana share. Here’s the link to my fave:

Obviously Mann should never have been sent on the mission. Having the rule that the people to go explore first, those who would probably not come back, should have no attachments wasn't nearly enough. As Mann himself says, humans are attached to other humans and the desire to see another face again, any face, is extremely strong regardless of how many or how few close relationships you have.

The people sent on the first mission needed to be those willing and able to give their lives, those who would be okay with dying alone on an alien planet, and Mann was never going to be that person because of how respected and important he was. He was credited with being the reason that the project was happening, was said to be the person who inspired the 11 others to go visit those planets. He may have had no personal connections but he was loved and respected, and so too full of his own importance to be able to sacrifice himself and die alone.

That's the first reason, which directly leads on to the second, which is that he was so respected as a leader that Cooper and Romily thought his planet was the better option even though Edmund's data was better. Cooper accuses Brand of going with her heart in her desire to go to Edmund's, but he's not thinking logically either, because the only reason he thinks they should go to Mann's is because Mann had such an incredible reputation.

In a way I feel sorry for Mann, he was the exact wrong person to send and nobody could see it because they thought too highly of him, which was exactly why he was the wrong person to send.

On the IMAX website there are planned showings in the next few days at multiple locations! https://www.imax.com/de/de/movie/interstellar

He gets me every-time i rewatch this movie, im a grown man who rarely cries but this music just hits in the feels

People have debated here before that there was usage of hyper sleep pods for the crew off camera. Such as for the journeys between the wormhole and Miller’s planet which is an unknown length of time.

My question is, if we remove all hypersleep time from the movie for Cooper, how long do we think his journey was from his timeframe? From my last watch of the movie it looks like it might be as short as two months or so.

On the occasion of 10 years of its release, I decided to watch Interstellar yet again, making it my 6th watch. Every watch makes me raise new questions but thankfully I found this sub!

1. Dr. Brand asks Cooper if he noticed something strange about the lab, after which he tilts his neck, to realise that the whole place is a centrifuge.

What are the implications here? I also didn't understand what they were trying to show us when he tilts his head to observe the lab.

2. Is the plot a loop/a flowchart of sorts?

Cooper delivers quantum data to Murph that helps her solve the gravity equation. Does that help "them" create the wormhole, which they place near Saturn for the whole plot to play out the way it did?

Or are the people referred to as "them" a different subset of humans entirely, who made the wormhole so that Cooper would, after the sequence of events, enter Gargantua, which would help Murph solve the gravity equation and save humans?

Humor is ultimately subjective, and Interstellar chooses to keep its humor sparse to focus on the dramatic scale and the emotional core, but I honestly really did appreciate the moments of levity they did sprinkle in to ensure it wasn't too one-note, it was really well done in that regard.

The part that got the hardest chuckle out of me was TARS' "Slave colony" quip, and I imagine a lot of peoples' favourite moments of humor come from them for that matter.

Dr Brand was right about Wolf Edmonds, although no one could realize it at the time, Wolf Edmonds having an emotional attachment to Brand would proclude him from doing the kind of fuckery that Mann did. He would never send for her to die with him, specifically because of the relationships and attachments that Dr Mann is missing in his life.

I don't know if this is obvious to everyone else, or has been pointed out here before I just found it very interesting on a rewatch.

So it seems that they don’t send robots for these missions under the idea that they can’t improvise enough like humans can. This plays a key role in the film during the docking scene where TARS says it isn’t worth wasting his fuel and that docking “is not possible”. Cooper counters with “no it’s necessary”.

This idea of robots not being able to improvise because you can’t program fear is explored prior during his scouting expedition with Dr. Mann…

Back in 2014 when I first saw the movie I thought this was brilliant, and super important for the story line…. I think also Dr. Mann’s dialogue about seeing your children right before you die is important too, as Cooper perseveres through immense physical and mental suffering for the love of his children and trying to save them.

Anyways, as we continue to see advances in artificial intelligence, I’m not so sure I agree that robots wouldn’t be able to improvise by the time we reach the 2060s (when the beginning of interstellar takes place). With the exponential increase in compute and advanced Nueral network and other techniques like what’s being done to train Tesla vehicles for example, I can’t fathom the robots training won’t get to the point where it can solve any known problem it may encounter.

The question, however, is what happens when the “logical” robot encounters something outside of their training dataset? A human obviously takes in the environment and pivots to the best potential outcome. I’m not sure the robots will be able to do the same in the next 20 years, but by the 2060s I don’t see why they couldn’t “pivot” or “improvise” like a human can.

Obviously the hypothetical 2020-2060s in interstellar is different than our possible future during those decades, but what I’ve seen with advances in self autonomous capabilities, I think we’ll have more advance robots than in the movie during our lives… which is super exciting for the prospects of getting off world.
