Interstellar - Review Thread

I don't know what a beer is but I've heard good things.

Also, I saw this for the fourth time yesterday (don't judge me, it was free) and the IMAX was three quarters full at least.

They're also showing the film at The Royal Albert Hall on March 30th with Hans Zimmer and a live orchestra performing the score. Christopher Nolan will be in attendance and will give an interview prior to the performance.

My ticket is booked so I'll get pics and report back.

N.B. When I saw it yesterday there was an updated IMAX pre-movie intro which was really cool AND they played the trailers for Avengers 2 and STAR WARS! Finally! The last three times I saw it they didn't play either.

It was epic.

Interstellar Live

Royal Albert Hall London 30th March

On March 30th 2015, Orchid Media and Metropolis Music stage the biggest presentation of a Christopher Nolan movie ever created: Interstellar Live.

At the iconic Royal Albert Hall, Interstellar will be screened in full accompanied live by a 60-piece orchestra performing Hans Zimmer's original Oscar-nominated score. Described by Zimmer as his ‘most personal score’, this epic music is one of the most important film scores of recent years; at once exhilarating, spectacular, pulsating and deeply moving.

Prior to the screening, Interstellar executive producer and one of the world’s leading theoretical physicists, Kip Thorne, will make a rare appearance in the UK to talk about the science behind INTERSTELLAR, in conversation with director Christopher Nolan and composer Hans Zimmer, who will also give insights into the creation of the film. This is a unique opportunity to hear from a true science legend about bringing black holes, wormholes and time warps to the big screen.

Man, I'm fucking pumped.

But I've got a week in South Korea to look forward to first, so...

Also, thanks for all your addresses guys. I'll have everything sent by mid-March.

Except for whatever Justin wants. That's still a mystery. You can have my personal Interstellar pen, if you want?

You're getting something special my friend. Justin

So I've just been thinking about why NASA hadn't already got Coop on board before he arrived there. I guess his prior crash ruined his piloting career, then his wife died and he went off the "grid".

It's still a stretch to think they wouldn't have attempted to bring him back in at all, considering the gravity (no pun) of the situation and the fact that he clearly wanted to continue to fly.

As for Hathaway's ridiculous love theory...it's stupid but I like that Coop shuts it down completely. It's more cringey when he buys into it in the tesseract but I suppose you can't predict how somebody would be thinking when presented with that extreme scenario.

As for the bootstrap theory for our own survival...well, who knows what we'll be capable of if we manage to keep evolving. Considering where we were 200 hundred years ago, if we don't blow ourselves to kingdom come we are destined to achieve things we cant' even contemplate even in this futuristic age.

I'm just glad there are people out there positing the possibilities on a scale that the whole world is capable of absorbing. Shame it didn't have Leo DC and upside down Paris to attract more people.

BTW, it continues to sell out in the biggest IMAX screen in the UK.

Third post in a row (par for the course in this thread for me) but I just checked my Interstellar plant that I won and it still, 1 month later, hasn't sprouted at all.

So I stuck my fingers in the can and there's no seed! What a jip. So I'll be contacting the prize provider and asking for another, and an extra one so I have something to send to JW.

All of your goods are ready to dispatch, by the way. I'm just currently flat broke until my first payday at the end of March. Then I'll start shipping your ish.

It better be awesome.

We all will. Two more weeks!

Owning movies digitally just feels so...impersonal to me.

Same. I pre-odered it from Walmart, so I also received a download of the film. I'll be watching it tonight.

Your plant-cultivating mind is about to be blown.

As done as I can get. Maybe when I buy a house, but moving with all that shit, no thanks. Trying to download all my books onto a kindle too. Minimize all my possessions. Except my clothes and shoes. Those keep adding up somehow...
