Larry Parrish posted:yeah, they did. they never outright explain the systems's set up, but it's a binary system with a neutron star and a black hole, which is why the black hole has that crazy bright disk around it. it's an accretion disk or the light is gravitationally lensed or something. the planets have atmospheres because they do. lets be honest extra-terrestrial geology is basically a field comprised of 100% radio emissions observation and a few best guesses about venus and mars. they mention the neutron star off-hand while they are planning which planet to land first, but i guess they just assumed everyone would take it in good faith like the wormholes and expecting people to know that gravity is a one-dimensional force. they forgot about a very crucial thing X RAYS FROM THE BLACK HOLE/NEUTRON STAR WOULD FRY EVERY loving LIVING THING AROUND IT for a guy who cared about scientific laws in the movie, he ignored everything that would make that place an inhabitable hell star system

Four dimensions from a black hole? But everyone knows black holes are only two dimensional. P.S. Firewalls.

Why is everyone bitching about the bookcase tesseract? McConaughey fall in Black Hole. Fifth Dimensional beings save him from falling forever in his Third Dimension and take them to their Fifth Dimension where time is a physical thing that can seen and interacted with using Gravity. Fifth Dimensional beings use the Tesseract to convey their concept to McConaughey who being a third dimensional being would understand things better/more easily in three dimensions. The reason for the book case maybe because it would be the closest/convenient time to relay a message for maximum impact. Also maybe the reason he can't just enter the room is that two copies of yourself can't coexist in the same time frame as it puts a huge strain on the space time continuum for whatever reason. The science isn't too far fetched, but it's all quantum physics and theories that maybe be proved right or wrong in a few years. They explain it all in the film. Fifth dimensional beings are basically the film's Deus Ex Machina that they purposely can't over use otherwise you start to ask if they can save Space-McConaughey, why cant they just save the earth themselves? It needs editing down to 2 hours 30. But it was better than inception, so that's something. I did laugh out loud when Brant(?) (Anne Hathaway) said she felt she had to go to the third planet because of love. The exact same way I did when Shaw in Prometheus said "because I believe it". Two great instances of scientists throwing out all logic. I think we can all agree that TARS is the hero we deserved.

This, like Inception, takes such cool concepts and makes them convoluted to the point where all joy and entertainment is lost.

Gunbuster was already about the power of love and time dilation and poo poo, but it also had huge anime boobs and even huger robots beating the gently caress out of some badass aliens. Chris Nolan, get your poo poo together.

pfizerman posted:we're laughing because it's dumb, fyi All movies are dumb, fyi. It fits into the story like a neat little package, creates some nice artistic imagery and tries to pull at some heart strings (albeit in a flailing fashion), just as dumb as making the first planet they land on the one where time is 1hr=7 years, just as dumb as space McConaughey. Mange Mite posted:Noone cares about the science there's nothing in science that says it has to br a magic bookcase that was a decision by the writer and it was a bad one What would you have chosen instead? Not trying to defend it, as I am no fan on Nolan. I can at least see from a story telling perspective why they chose the bookcase thing. Along with the fact everyone seems to have forgotten that TARS gives exposition as to why the fifth dimensional beings made the tesseract. Twitch posted:Gunbuster was already about the power of love and time dilation and poo poo, but it also had huge anime boobs and even huger robots beating the gently caress out of some badass aliens. Take my money, make TARS the lead with a plucky young teen side kick. Facepalm Ranger fucked around with this message at 15:17 on Nov 15, 2014 |

Tyson had the last laugh I guess since for the special edition he got a phone call from the film special effects guys and got to fix the inaccurate stars.

Flesh Forge posted:*durrr I should just stop trying to talk about this because I really do not know things about it I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not but the point is the bookshelves imagery is very similar to Hal's deactivation sequence. Instead of pulling on book like disc arrays, he's pushing on them. That's like, why. Interstellar isn't much more than a love note to 2001. If anything I'm disappointed the wormhole was orbiting Saturn and not Jupiter.

I wasn't being sarcastic in the slightest, it was a really insightful post and I think you're 100% correct as to why that scene is visualized in that particular way. e: I mean, looking at it in retrospect it's crystal clear, I'm unhappy I didn't realize it while watching the film myself it's so blatant Flesh Forge fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Nov 15, 2014 |

Seen in that context, it is a clever decision. It's true. I saw it with my girlfriend and when we were talking about it afterwards she was like "Ugh... am I really that easy to pander to??" Mange Mite posted:also i like how he doesnt even ask about his son like "welp i guess he died or something" The best part was when he left for space.

Basically what I'm saying is that despite the handful of logic wierdness which you shouldn't give a gently caress about in a movie, it's really fun to watch in IMAX and none of the scenes were too long to make the movie feel torturous like the 3 hour Hulk movie.

It wasn't until The Dark Knight Rises that I actually started to look back at his body of work and realize "oh yeah he's really not all that by a long shot" but then other nerds kept on sucking his dick so it was like "oh so this is what it's been like for everyone else." The fact that Interstellar is a giant attempt to make 2001 for dummies (but we've got real astrophysics guys that totally makes up for a lackluster narrative  ) and that offends my delicate sci-fi nerd sensibilities coupled with noticing what an elitist prick Nolan seems to be only got me working against him further.

The fact that Interstellar is a giant attempt to make 2001 for dummies (but we've got real astrophysics guys that totally makes up for a lackluster narrative I dunno I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Dark Knight (with Heath Ledger's awesome Joker) was a real, true masterpiece. From the intense and well-placed musical score to the timing to all of the set pieces to fuckin Tiny Lister throwing the bomb detonator off of the jailbird ferry, it hit so many good notes. Not quite flawless, but imo his best film (certainly way, way better than Interstellar). Dark Knight Rises, not so much.
