They could have just done big fancy green houses and not had to worry about dust and poo poo. Or like that Japanese guy that makes a billion lettuce per day in a warehouse.

PureEvil6_13 posted:Weird, I just read and article about how there is only one known person to ever live after being completely frozen. Jean Hilliard is her name and she came out of it just fine so I guess Applewhite could be on to something. How is this even real? That photo is spooky as hell.

Did the robots have dicks? I don't think the movie touched on this, and I've been wondering ever since.

A GLISTENING HODOR posted:Also, they keep saying the crops are dying and food is running out, and they imply that earth is very sparsely populated now. Real and short answer: ultimately just about all life is sustained on energy from the sun, and plants are the only organism capable of converting solar energy into a usable form, which everything else has to obtain from the plant

Applewhite posted:It's established that Earth possesses reliable cryogenic technology, sophisticated AI, advanced robotics and generators capable of providing power to same for an extended period of time. Michael Caine's character literally tricked everyone with ideas into not doing anything productive, instead building a gigantic concrete spaceship under the ground that would rely on anti-gravity technology he personally knew would be impossible, he was just stringing them all along because he was totally sure he was the smartest motherfucker in the world and nobody else could possibly come up with any ideas that might help. Michael Caine is the villain of the film

That said the technology that baffled me the most was they apparently have shuttlecraft capable and advanced enough to produce enough delta V that escaping multiple gravity wells is nbd but they can't figure out how to Monsanto some fuckin lettuce

Plan B was a snipe hunt to keep the smart plebes - smart, but not smart enough to figure out anything actually useful - from flipping out, they said this pretty explicitly.

A GLISTENING HODOR posted:Also, they keep saying the crops are dying and food is running out, and they imply that earth is very sparsely populated now. The atmosphere was also becoming toxic for reasons I can't remember. The line that summed it up was "the people who don't starve to death will live long enough to see everyone else suffocate." A GLISTENING HODOR posted:You don't have to freeze EVERYONE since NASA's plan B was essentially "lol send Anne Hathaway into space with frozen sperm". You need more than 10-20 people. Because humans suffered a major genetic bottleneck sometime in our past, we couldn't survive a second one. I think the minimum safe breeding population for humans is 1000+ people.

Anyway it's as pointless as discussing military strategy in Lord of the Rings, because the film is about hope and human spirit. It's not a STEM problem solving exercise like the Martian.

i thought it was ok if completely unrealistic until they started deep dicking the black hole. um u dumb fucker u should be torn asunder into so many atoms not in a gay bookcase room like what are the chances this stupid black hole led him to a 4d representation of the space behind his idiot childs room, and also into the past, so the whole time the ghost was he!!! and he programmed her watch via love e: seriously I had a good time but i got really embarrassed I liked it once they started going on about an EMOTION being the most powerful thing ever

I don't think the freezing technology in Interstellar was like hollywood cryo-freezing where your life cycle is halted, but rather just significantly slowed down.

Strudel Man posted:No, that's mostly because the Y chromosome is never paired with another Y, so it can't undergo recombination nearly so much as most chromosomes do, making it more susceptible to mutations and deletions. It is also more prone to population size-based genetic drift because there's only 1/4th as many Y chromosomes as there are of the others, but the recombination thing is the biggest factor. Interesting! So how long until it shuts down completely?

Never give up and aliens will save you? But only if you EMOTION enough to get through an unnecessary mountain of poo poo first? I enjoyed the film but yeah thinking too hard about it leads to sorrow

In The Martian the astronauts are trying to escape a storm that's threatening to tip over their launch vehicle and blows Matt Damon away but the atmosphere on Mars is ~150 times less dense than on earth so the wind would have had an equivalent force of a 1 mph wind on Earth. All the wind can do is move around very fine particles of dust you won't really have to worry about being impaled by a satellite dish.
