I’ll go first. Mine is that I can’t stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It’s like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds
Interstellar is a bad movie. The story takes too long, the supposedly smart characters are acting obviously dumb, and the whole “we solved it all along because we figured out timetravel” trope is the most lazy way to wrap up a story.
Oh and of course the small artifically built space colony near Jupiter does not care for fitting many humans, but instead is a shitty american suburb with lavish lawns. Because who needs to safe people from other cultures amirite?
Wow, I’m surprised it took me so long to find this comment. Probably THE worst space movie and THE worst time travel movie. Even the Music video of Year 3000 was more believable than Interstellar.
I hear you, but I love that move. Up until the part where he is in a tesseract in his daughters room and love saves the world or some shit?
Muuurph!
I definitely struggled suspending disbelief when they wasted all that time on the time-slowed tsunami planet when it was really obvious before they even landed that it was not going to work out. Definitely felt like they decided to check on the planet in person solely because the script writer thought it would be a cool astrophysics concept to show off. And like, it was definitely a neat planet, but it also definitely felt like smart people being inexplicably stupid.
I actually like the film. However what annoyed me about that part is this:
You’ve got a bunch of -mostly- super smart people. (Cooper not so much as he’s ‘only’ the pilot, but the others wouldn’t be there if they weren’t very clever).
And they also know and have talked about time dilation, and that every second down there is longer -about a day- than on Earth.
Yet they just gung ho it.
They don’t really work out beforehand how long the person (miller, I think) would’ve been down there and what things would be like from their point of view.
No. It’s “uggg, signal. Follow signal. Most follow beep. Beep beep, hehe, beep”.
And then they didn’t really have a plan for when they landed. They just landed and went out for a walk like it’s a Sunday afternoon stroll in the park.
On a planet with such excessive time dilation.
And that’s not the worse part. No then, THEN, when shit hits the fan they send the robot (TARS, I think) to very speedily pick up the trapped person.
Now I’m no rocket scientist, but even I would want to know everything about that planet. The estimated time of how long miller (?) was there. And the quickest way to get the info needed, then get off asap.
They should’ve “Okay, time dilation is going to fuck us up. So we follow the signal. Land as close as poss. Send out the robot to pick up the person and info etc. Then gtfo of there sharpish. Agreed. Nice. Let’s do this.”
But nooooo, it’s… let’s half arse it. Go for a fucking walk. Fuck things up. Then, and only then, panic but then do things correctly.
Nolan, wtf were you thinking?
