had to look up the music after seeing this scene :ohmy:.



Man, this is probably the best song on the soundtrack (featured in the best scene of the movie) but goddamn, Zimmer ripped off Philip Glass so bad with this shyt.:russ:

It's a long complicated answer - http://www.bustle.com/articles/4753...w-to-understand-the-films-complicated-physics


Basically it's outside the realm of time and space. When he's in the bookshelf, he's in a few place where all time is visible. The advanced beings limited it the daughters room because they knew that she would be the one to save humanity. But they couldn't tell what time and timeline would effect the past and allow her to do so


He was able to do that cause he knew his daughter. He knew she'd look at the watch. So he relayed the data that the robot got from falling in the black hole first.

That's why he could exist behind the shelf in the beginning, shake hands in the ship, and still be alive in the moment to witness it.




they actually brought in a scientist from nasa who consulted on the science in the movie. He actually took parts of the movie back to nasa to use as teaching tools

He himself said the "worst" science in the movie is the ice clouds cause nothing could hold them up there. Other than that, he said it was spot on.

Neil Tyson chimed in and said interstellar had the best showing of the theory of relativity ever in a movie
Ice Clouds and everything involving the Tesseract made no sense. All the stuff with planets and travel was okay - but reaching back into the past, power of love across space, the weird 'circumstance' that allowed him to take off for Hatheway at the end - no.

so we either listen to you or listen to a nasa scientist...



The difficulty here :patrice:

Did you listen to NDT?

You should for yourself - dude flying into a blackhole is forever no bueno

The power of love going through space time? Nah.

The timeline between the MC, his daughter, and Hathaway at the end requires a lot of wishful thinking and convenience.

You find something in that interview, or any, that makes that work. Watch the interviews for yourself. There are a lot of things the movie does well, there are others that, because the plot relies on them directly, makes the movie stop working.

I agree with that. But that wasn't science. That was movie fluff

Meaning those parts where us turning into supreme beings, those beings building time/gravity machines inside black holes, and love conquering all aren't really scientific theories nor facts. So that shouldn't count as incorrect "science"


As for the timeline. Told y'all this goes deep

As long as you acknowledge the difference :manny: still love the movie, but like The Martian, you have to turn off the science in a movie where most of it wants to follow the rule book

Well, with the Ice Clouds... we haven't yet mastered the knowledge of ALL science and therefore with hard science you can embellish science fiction into it.

The Tesseract shouldn't be difficult to understand... but the ENTIRE 3RD ACT and its ending is very ambiguous. Almost as ambiguous as Kubrick's 2001. From a literal aspect, "THEY" created the Tesseract. The Tesseract is supposedly singularity in which all points of time ceases. The rationale is that TIME is not linear, and throughout the movie it hints at the fact that time isn't linear with a past, present and future, but is circular with no beginning or ending. This is how and why "THEY" were able to pinpoint things from different points of time because through their 5th dimensional senses they do not see events as a past, present or future. The aspect of "love" is another source of energy. Basically it was stating that how you are EMOTIONALLY connected a person can transcends through time and space. For example, many people who's lost a mother or father or friend may still feel their connection well beyond the grave. "THEY" reasoned that Cooper's strong connection with his daughter would resonate which it did. As for the final scene, it wasn't so much Cooper had to take off for Amelia, but for his daughter to give blessings to leave her again because as he earlier mentioned, he didn't want to stay at the space station. Murphy's on close to dying and had her own family and her own life and he needed to explore which was his desire... Amelia was merely an excuse.

That's the LITERAL interpretation. But if you want my honest opinion, COOPER DIED entering the black hole and everything else was fantasy.
