By Rob saying "It took me out of the movie a bit" with the 3D tesseract built in the 5th dimension, i think he just means HE couldn't comprehend it So that shouldn't be said as a statement of fact like the movie messed up, it just went over his head. NO ONE can actually perceive and visualize what a fifth dimension would look like, but almost unanimously quantum physicists agreed that this interpretation is the absolute closest anyone has come. And the science involved in the end was completely grounded in reality. It matches all theories and hypotheses about how gravity would work through dimensions and the morse code he transferred to Murph was just the quantum data of how the black hole works. Nothing in there was magic or supernatural or devoid of reality. Anyway great reaction and I'm happy you both loved the movie even if I think its unfair of Rob to claim he was "taken out of it" solely because he himself couldn't understand it

2025-01-03 11:59:08 +0000 UTCTo be honest, I've always thought the sound balancing within the movie itself was abysmal. The dialogue, in many places, is barely intelligible. While the music is at such a higher level than the dialogue. I've resorted to just having the subtitles on all the time.

2023-04-09 22:17:35 +0000 UTCGreat reactions, Rob and Trin! I can see how some would have a problem with the tesseract in the Black Hole, but to be honest, I had no problem with it. After all, no probe has ever gone into a black hole, let alone gone in and relayed anything back. So, anything anyone comes up with regarding what’s inside a Black Hole is all hypotheses. And in fiction, beings from the future creating the backdrop for Cooper to communicate with his daughter isn’t out of the realm of possibility. It really amuses me with how so many people can have a problem with it but don’t have problems with: the beings placing a wormhole near Saturn, hypersleep, TARS and CASE (and KIPP), what happens once entering a wormhole, people thinking the idea of settling on two planets (Miller’s and Mann’s) so close to a Black Hole (I mean, eventually they will be absorbed by the Black Hole – so another evacuation?), basically anything to do with the bulk beings, etc. With so much being correct in the rest of the movie, I can deal with this ending to a Science FICTION movie. Bryce Dallas Howard is Ron Howard’s daughter and stars in the Jurassic World movies. Some of Jessica Chastain’s (who played adult Murph) credits include: “Zero Dark Thirty” (2012), “Interstellar” (2014), “The Martian” (2015), “The 355” (2022), etc. Mackenzie Foy played 10-year-old Murph. Also, since you mentioned “Battlestar Galactica”, did you notice Lois, Tom’s wife, was played by Leah Cairns, who played “Racetrack” on “Battlestar Galactica”? The music is, pardon the pun, Stellar. Who would have thought a pipe organ in outer space would be so cool? Especially during the entire docking sequence after Mann has killed himself and sent the Endurance to crash on the planet! Absolutely riveting. It’s the only soundtrack to a movie I’ve purchased on a CD in recent years.

2022-11-25 16:24:22 +0000 UTCThis movie has a lot of rewatchability, first because of the aesthetics, this incredible feeling to be in space with them, but also because of the actual scientific theories it's based on. There's a lot of information crammed in an already long movie, and as it was already said there more science than fiction compared to what you were thinking! (And yes Tars is the best lol)

2022-11-21 07:21:51 +0000 UTCJust for clarification, the data Cooper is sending Murph on the watch is the quantum data from the black hole. The whole problem with Plan A was that you needed data from the black hole but there was no possible way to do so until Cooper went into one with Tars at the end of the movie. Also I think you were a bit confused about Plan A. Plan A was them being able to bring everyone on Earth onto a liveable planet. The whole place that Murph worked at (NASA) was built as a space ship so Plan A included being able to lift that (gravity) to fly into space. The quantum data that Murph got from Cooper allowed her to finish her equation to get the space ship into space with everyone on Earth. At the end Brand found that Edmunds planet can maintain life. After the end of the movie you can assume that Cooper found Brand and then brought everyone from Cooper's station that was orbiting Saturn onto Edmunds planet where they can live.

2022-11-21 03:56:28 +0000 UTCYeah, just FFWD to the end and Rob really thought it wasn't grounded on real science, but actually, it is... alot. Either way the end would always be a conundrum, but I'm really happy they took the courage route and just created a scenario that is plausible while being sci-fi enough to make the mind wonder! :)

2022-11-20 22:07:55 +0000 UTCI haven't really seen a movie this good since 2014. The plot, the score (Hans Zimmer you maniac!), the visuals, everything is top tier, and it's one of the most emotional blockbusters ever made for sure. And yet the best thing about it is that there isn't a scene in the movie that wasn't based on our scientific knowledge or theories, including the two widely criticized part in the movie: - Anne Hathaway's monologue about the power of love: there's a phenomenon in quantum physics called quantum entanglement. Without going into the details (and I forgot a lot about this stuff), basically when entangled particles are separated, the two particles seem to exchange information between each other, being thousands of miles away - which cannot be explained by classical physics. Some physicists theorize that the same happens when siblings (or any two people who love each other) are feeling each other's emotions for example. So the the notion that love transcends time and space, is not some pseudo-scientific mumbo jumbo, but a legit theory in quantum mechanics. I really recommend googling this, it's a fascinating theory. - The fifth dimension scene: From the perspective of a 5-dimensional being, time could be seen similar to how we see width or height. When we'd look at a person, we could see them from the moment of their birth to the the moment of their death, all at the same time. Or we could go back and forth in their timeline, like fast-forwarding on a DVD player. That tesseract (which is a mathematical four-dimensional cube) scene in the movie is the representation of that, and a pretty good one. Gravity (and electromagnetism) is theorized to be a key element of the fifth dimension, and gravitational waves distort the fabric of time and space (and the black hole that Cooper was sent to had a huge mass, hence gravity as well), so communicating with gravity through a black hole in the spacetime continuum isn't that of a far fetched idea. If time travel is possible in any way, it'll have to do with gravity for sure. (Of course it's hard to imagine a dimension any other than the 4 we know, but it's not harder than imagining a 3rd dimension for a 2D being. For them, every 3D object is 2D.) Nolan wrote Interstellar with the help of Kip Thorne, one of the most famous astrophysicist alive, with gravitational physics being his main field of study, so the science is as accurate as it can get in the movie. The wormhole scene for example is the single most accurate visual representation of a wormhole ever created, based on existing physical models. I think this is what sci-fi movies should be all about. A story based on scientific facts and theories, with just the right amount of fiction and imagination, and huge amount of human emotions. Thanks for your reaction guys!

2022-11-20 16:41:57 +0000 UTCThat time dilation, from proximity to gravity, can actually be measured by the astronauts that spend months up on the space station. If two people synchronize their watches, and one spends a year in orbit, and the other back on the ground, there will be a fraction of a second difference between the watches when the other one returns to Earth. It's crazy stuff.

2022-11-20 15:22:18 +0000 UTCYeah, I'd even reduce the time equation near Gargantua to more stress the importance of not wasting a second of time near the black hole. 1 hour may be equal to 7 Years back on Earth, but that reduces to 1 second being equal to roughly 17 hours back on earth. So the time it took me to type this blurb, close to 2 weeks would have passed by....
