I lost my dad when I was only 6 years old. I am now a dad myself. Seeing you put on your dad's work apron was so sweet. As a dad, I can promise you that he absolutely thought of you while watching this. Remember, he is your ghost. He'd cross time and space and all eternity to save you and show his love for you. Never forget that. As long as you remember him, he will always continue to live on.
How time works and the timeline of interstellar becomes more clear when you've seen the movie a couple of times. I've seen this movie about 5 times. The most recent was yesterday during the re-release in IMAX and it was so much more enjoyable when you know the plot in and out.
Fun fact: Christopher Nolan basicly just told composer Hans Zimmer the story is sci-fi but it focuses on the relationship of a father and his daughter. This is what he did.
He didn't even tell him it's a sci-fi movie, Hanz Zimmer had no idea initially and it's said in interviews from behind the scenes, Nolan didn't want the movie to have a typical "sci-fi" music so he initially only told him to make 1 song about love and father-daughter connection, which Zimmer got inspired from his own love towards his son and he made and played the Cooper-Murph theme to Nolan and he fell in love with it immediately. And just to clarify, a lot of people misunderstand that Zimmer wrote the whole score for the movie before even knowing what the movie is going to be about, which isn't true. He only did the father-daughter theme and the rest of the score he did and built on after that when he had more information. They recorded the organ music in a church in London to give this etherial and metaphysical feeling to it.
The black hole, Gargantua, was actually created with a specific program that could take our current knowledge of black holes at the time, all the data we had, and simulate what the data says a black hole should look like. The result in the film is a little more dramatized, but it isn't far off what the simulation produced. And years later, when we finally got our first picture of a real black hole, it looked nearly identical to the one they simulated in Interstellar. So, the black hole in this film is also part of scientific proof of our data on black holes being correct up to the current day. Also, something else that i think is really cool is that it took about a month to render Gargantua, with some individal frames taking over 100 hours to render, even on a very, very powerful computer. It totaled out to be around 800 terabytes of data just for the black hole alone. Christopher Nolan is certainly one of the best at practical effects, but his use of both practical and cgi in this film is so seamless and particularly interesting, especially when it comes to the black hole. He also hired one of the best theoretical physicists in the world, Kip Thorne, to be his advisor on this film, as well as on Tenet, and also advised Cillian Murphy on his portrayal of Oppenheimer. In the film, the robot of Dr. Mann is actually named KIPP, just as a little Easter egg. Besides that, Kip Thorne basically wrote all of the equations you see on the chalkboards to make sure they actually made sense and didn't just look cool or sciencey. He played a major role in the entire film, in which Nolan was very adamant about not writing over the actual science too much, so that the science is actually done right and not just dramatized. Beyond Interstellar, Kip Thorne received the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics and the Nobel Prize for helping to develop the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, in which was used to detect, for the first time in human history, gravitational waves propagating throughout space-time, in which their origin was discovered to be two black holes merging together. So, he's probably the best person Nolan could've picked to advise him on this film, and because of that decision, the film, to this day, continues to be used as a reference to our knowledge of black holes. And is one of the biggest reasons why Nolan is one of my favorite directors of all time.
My favorite fact from Kip Thorne’s book about the movie, is that the black hole accretion disk would’ve been blue tinted on one side and red tinted on the other, due to the extreme orbital speed causing color shifts. They decided that that detail would be too much for the audience, but the idea of a blue and red black hole is awesome.
@Roach_Dogg_JR yes, that's one of my favorites as well, and I also like that they chose to leave it out of the film. It's truly the perfect balance of science and storytelling.
The crew before Coop’s arrival had been training in simulators..he on the other hand is a pilot and engineer..who has already touched space..he is the only one with real experience..they need a lot of Dramamine..when Anne passes out she is leaning back and passes out..he is,leaning into the spin..and remains conscious..
@@crispy_338 you can. The laws of physics will still exist in future decades. Even in the catastrophic event of nuclear armageddon, people will still survive, but they will live underground
My father passed away in June and i just watched this movie again. Also miss my dad a lot and now it feels like some of the concepts and lines of this movie are even more impactful and brilliant than before. Shout-out to all the dads around the world that give their hearts and souls for their children. May they remember how important they are too!
QT. You nailed this reaction. Christopher Nolan wasn’t just telling a story. He was almost narrating our future. And the entire score from Hans Zimmer really drew out the emotion. The both of them make this movie an epic story. And that little joke about “my dad loved farming” is a subtle joke from a daughter to let her father know she forgave him.
Thank you for releasing this one and sharing your story. This reaction brought me to as much genuine tears as the movie originally did. This was absolutely beautiful.
I am so glad you ultimately decided to post this. I've cried countless times to this movie but seeing it again along with seeing you crying to it thinking about your own dad really brought out the waterworks and made me really appreciate that I am lucky enough to have both of my parents alive.
32:46 It's because of Time Dialation. The planet they are on, the water planet, is so close to the black hole that the gravity of the black hole is bending space time. So the closer you get to a significantly massive object the more slow your clock movies in relation to clocks on Earth. The same effect happens when you move closer to the speed of light.
The best piece of behind the scenes trivia about this film that you could possibly know, is that all of the visual effects were done PREproduction as opposed to post-production like the overwhelming majority of films do. This is so that whenever actors are reacting to some special effects during shooting, Nolan has those effects - because they were already done - projected onto screens for the cast to actually see and actually react to. Anne Hathaway said the first time she saw the black hole/wormhole on set during shooting she was moved to tears with how beautiful it was.
@@datdudeinred Well personally I have a limited edition of a Blu-ray combo pack DVD with a separate special features disc but I'm gonna assume the "limited" aspect of that has to do with all the other stuff that came with it, and not like the content included in the special features. So with that said, I imagine that any currently available version of the film should have all the special features I have access to on my edition and that it is during interviews in the special features where Nolan himself says that his team did all the visual effects ahead of time in pre-production and then during filming they had those effects being projected onto screens for the cast to react live to instead of using green screens. It may also be in those interviews where Anne Hathaway talks about seeing the black hole for the first time but that might just be from a random junket interview. Is it junket or junkit? I dunno. Anywho, yeah I assume it should be available on any version of the film that includes special features.
The "quantum data" is the observational data of a naked singularity (inside of a black hole), which was the missing piece of the Professors research and why he gave up on ever finishing it. The concept is that even if you can send something or someone down into a black hole to observe a naked singularity, it's an absolute that nothing ever physically leaves a black hole, not even light, not even information, so there'd be no way to get the data back to the Professor. That's why he, very rationally, gave up on that research and moved on to Plan B. But some future 5d humans built that mechanism INSIDE the black hole to connect people with those they cared about back home. Even humans so far in the future counted on love being the strongest human motivator, and it saved humanity. It's how they could get Cooper Station into space. So Plan A worked in the end! If you liked this movie I know FOR A FACT that you will like Arrival too! It's a fantastic movie with much the same vibe as this, but also very different. SUPER worth a watch!
Heyyy... first time watcher. I'm so so sorry you lost your Dad. I know how you feel and just wanna say hi and I'm really glad you seem to have a healthy outlook on everything. Best wishes for you, your loved ones, and your channel!
Huge props to you for pausing to make most comments! Very rare to see that. Most reactors talk over the movie and important dialogue gets completely missed then they wonder why certain things don’t make sense to them.
Great video, Tofu This movie really sneaks up on you. You go in thinking you're just getting some cool sci-fi, and instead you end up going through the emotional wringer. lol Still hits, all these years later. And you brought some great commentary to it. Probably could've done without the toenail story, but after you had to go through it, I guess you've got a right to share the suffering a little. lol Interstellar's a favorite of mine, so it was fun getting to re-experience that with you. Glad you liked it.
@@c0hink176 no. its explained why they cant transmit data, but only recieve it bruh... when Coop got back from the first planet, he had 23 years of messages stored..
I lost both my parents, but they’re still with me every so often you’ll be reminded of that they’re still with you.. forever. But yeah, it’s interesting how it works when you least expect it , the thought of them will come .. or they’ll remind you that they’re still there.. Even decades later
Thanks for the reaction, tofu. It's my favorite movie ever. Been following you since your red dead 2 playthrough. Very happy you finally watched this wonderful masterpiece of a movie. Very sorry about your dad, I know just how you feel. Much love. ❤
I'm glad you're reacting to this! My second-favorite movie of all time (Ghostbusters being number one). I've missed your movie reactions as I'm not a gamer!
@QueenTofu this movie came out a few years after I lost my dad (I was young). I’m a dad now, and I can watch it from both Murph’s and Cooper’s perspectives. It tears me up every time. And I love it all the more for it. What Coop says to Murph as he’s getting ready to leave is one of those golden moments when art perfectly captures a snippet of life: “Now we’re just here to be memories for our kids. Once you’re a parent, you’re the ghost of your children’s future.” I understand that now on a level that tells me that line came from someone who lived it. My dad died years ago, but he’s also here every day, gently haunting me through my memories, still changing the world bit by bit in the way he guides my parenting of a child he never got to meet. And I know intimately that one day I’ll be that ghost for my kid, too, so I do everything I can now to make sure he will have as gentle and welcome a haunting as I’ve been blessed with.
I'm glad that this reaction saw the light of day and in the end brought the light to my day. To start, I don't know you at all and it's the first time I come across this channel & yourself and if there's one thing, I truly enjoyed watching your experience through the screen from beginning till the end (without even touching the playback speed). I know your dad was with you when you were watching it and I'm happy that you had another movie night with the dad. On another note, when you said "It's such a sweet thought, you know, that I kind of sat down to watch a movie about space and it ended up being a movie about love.", it reminded me a piece from Matthew McConaughey's interviews on the movie: "In the center of it though, the heartbeat, is a father faced with the fact that his daughter who's 30 years older than when he left her thinks that he abandoned her. Love is space time. Love is that fifth dimension. Love is that thing that travels through time forward, backwards, up and down." 🪐🫶 Love from Amsterdam P.S. I love when you said Cooper's jacket is kind of similar to Joel Miller's.
Oh hey, you posted early today! Waking up to Tofu...I could get used to this 😏 Starting things off with the toenail story was certainly a choice, goofball. lol Again, glad it all worked out for you, the hot soak was _very_ smart. Unlike your decision to subject me to that horror story for the second time. That was just cruel. lol Personally, I love this movie, and I love that even so soon into it, you're digging it, too. I was right there with you on that parent-teacher conference: _great_ use of subtle and efficient exposition on the state of the world, and such a good character establishing moment for Cooper. And since I just hit that part of the reaction: I _love_ your commentary. You are so funny, so smart, so thoughtful in the way you analyze the world, characters, and themes-if this video was just nothing but a full hour of you laying out every (non toenail related :Ρ) thought and opinion you had when watching this movie, it would still be a _fantastic_ watch. "Stop talking"? Pff, absolutely not Yap for me, babe. I enjoy every second. ❤️ Cooper's departure gets me every time. It's such an interesting mystery that then suddenly barely even matters anymore in the face of the raw intensity of his cracking relationship with Murph. And yeah, the detail of him checking under the blanket again, her realizing she wants to say goodbye seconds after it's too late...ugh, fucking gets me. 😭 Having that tangible connection to ypur dad that you can throw on when you need it most is beautiful. I'm really glad you have that, Tof. Interstellar _was_ shot on film, good call. And the thing about everything but the bots being sorta low tech is a real philosophy that NASA has. You know the joke about how indestrucible old Nokia phones are? Same thinking. You build it in the older style, simple, with more mechanical components than fancier touch screens and other more advanced but fragile shit like that, and there's less chance for stuff to break and less you ultimately have to do specialized maintenance on. Anyway... Dude, when this movie picks up, it's just fucking _going_ for it. The tension on Mann's planet is so good, and the "No time for caution" scene is one of those crazy moments that's just gonna stay with me for years and years. The stakes, the music, the shots-excellent. And I love the black hole stuff. It just marries really cool sci-fi things with emotionally satisfying metaphilosophy so well and it just _works_ for me. _So_ good. Sending you so many hugs during that ending, love 🫂 🫂 Don't feel bad about being a little confused there, either. It's not super obvious. I'm sure someone (or many someones, given the way these comments work lol) have probably explained this already, so feel free to ignore me and skip ahead, but the short version of what the hell's going on with the "aliens" is that we're essentially looking at a lowkey stable timeloop. The mission "fails", and Brand enacts Plan B on her planet, creating a new human civilization from the stored embryos. Uncountable years go by, that civilization grows, flourished, and eventually advances to the point where they can manipulate time and gravity. These now highly advanced humans of the future create the wormhole and the construct hidden away inside the black hole to change time and correct what originally went wrong, allowing Cooper to pass Murph the secret of gravity manipulation much, much earlier so that she can use it to get the people still living on Earth in our "present day" to safety. The end (Sorry, not actually that short, I'm realizing 😂) This was such a good reaction, Tofu. Thank you for sharing it, for taking a chance on a movie that picked at a painful wound so many times, and for allowing yourself to be vulnerable enough to feel the entire rollercoaster of emotions it ellicited. You're amazing, babe. And you always bring your A game for us. Love you a ton. ❤️
Great comment, but I wanted to correct one thing: the explanation you gave of the aliens and black hole is only one of two possibilities. Your story uses the "branched time" hypothesis where free will is unfettered and there are many timelines that branch off from one another. The alternate explanation assumes "invariant time," "fixed time," or "fated time." In _that_ case, events proceeds exactly as we see them presented here with Murph cracking the manipulation-of-gravity problem with help passed on from the far future and the population of Earth migrating off planet. Eventually, the descendants of those human beings figure out "all the spacetime stuff" and they create the wormhole, etc., thus closing the loop on their causality.
I’ve been watching with you since TLOU2…this was the last movie me and my dad saw in theaters before he passed in 2015. Miss him everyday. Your father is always with you - this video proves it. 🙏
My mom passed away Feb. 29th this year, 2024. So I do empathize. It hurts...and I still don't know if I've even processed it yet fully. I know it gets easier, but will never go away. This movie was the last movie we watched together, so it hits me so hard. When we watched it, I wish I would've known how powerful of a memory was being made at that moment in space and time. Only if I had known, I would've expressed my love for her so much more strongly. Someday we'll all get there and we'll all understand just what it's all about.
You just made my day. Just finished watching your reaction. First off, that toenail story was insane. I had a hangnail on my toe one time and it was painful. Second, I watched this movie when it first came out in 2014. I watch it with my family every chance we get. We all share a love of science fiction. Though you're not the first person to react to this movie in recent years, you're reaction was truly heartwarming for me to watch. I'm gonna go hug my dad after this. I'm literally crying right now. Thank you so much!
I miss my old man dearly too, sweetheart. The loss of a parent is one of the most traumatizing events in our lives. I dont think time heals, it just helps you cope.
I never had a father figure growing up but I sure had an amazing mother. I lost her at 18. I’m 31 now. This movie brings me so much emotion because I miss what I never had, and I also miss my mother. It reminds me of the things I missed out on, and how amazing my mother truly was because as a child I never realized I was missing out on anything at all.
I'm so sorry for the loss of your father. Please take some peace in knowing that when people die they don't disappear, they just go somewhere else and they're waiting for us to come join them. You'll see him again!
Great reaction like always, my absolute favorite movie. The score is beautiful and the story is emotionally compelling, Incredible. Amazing. Spectacular. Stupendous. Breathtaking. Excellent. Perfect. These are all synonyms of this masterpiece of cinema. The sentence "because my dad promised me" always makes me cry heavily. Murph is the most important scientist in human history, she has changed the course of the future through scientific knowledge but she says that the very one thing she was certain in life was the love her father had for her, that made her certain of his return. There are some fun facts about this movie. The real TARS isn’t precisely the complex AI machine you saw in the movie; rather, TARS is a giant puppet. Interestingly, lollipop sticks inspired the robot’s design. Behind the 200lbs (90.72kg) robot was Bill Irwin, who voiced the character and controlled its movements. However, he left the more complicated moves for stunt man Mark Fichera. Christopher Nolan wanted that this movie to remain as close to actual science as possible. As a result, he joined forces with the 2017 Nobel Prize for Physics winner, Dr. Kip Thorne, on the project. However, it wasn’t all smooth sailing as Dr. Kip Thorne and Christopher Nolan had disputes, while Nolan wanted to exceed the speed of light, Dr. Thorne stood his ground about staying true to science. Nolan finally came around and agreed to Dr. Thorne’s solution. Keeping in line with Nolan’s desire to maintain scientific accuracy, Dr. Kip Thorne provided the theoretical equations for the wormhole and black hole simulation. Paul J. Franklin and his team at Double Negative developed new CGI software that could realistically represent scientific phenomena in the film. Nolan wanted a brand new score for Interstellar, and he got that, he contacted Hans Zimmer and asked him to develop the score for the movie. However, he didn’t give Zimmer much to go off on. He simply presented Zimmer with a single-page text describing the movie’s main themes. So, without a script, title, or plot details, Zimmer created the score for Interstellar, in the end the score successfully embodied the heart of the movie. The shoots filmed in Dr.Manns planet was shot in Iceland, Svínafellsjökull Glacier, east of Skaftafell, an outlet glacier of Vatnajökull in Vatnajökull National Park. Keep up the good work.
Fun fact: Tars is voiced by the eventual author and astrophysicist to the book. the theories developed from the movie/books led to the actual research of black holes and found that their theories were basically spot on as far as what the black hole would look like. I cant remember how long ago but they eventually got visuals of and cross referenced it with the research and found it all to be true
Reading all these comments while watching the beginning of the reaction has me tearing up already and we haven't even gotten to the tear-jerking scenes yet. I lost my Dad 4 years ago this month. I miss him so, but they live on through us everyday. 💖
I could give you a hug right now, while also making sure not to step on your toe lol. Looking forward to your continuation of Spider-Man 2 and Batman The Enemy Within.
Thank you for being open. It was beautiful and l truly appreciated you wearing your father's shop gear. I wear my father's Vietnam Veteran Hat. It means more than l understand and l am glad that l have it. You are awesome. Great reaction.
I absolutely love Interstellar! It is such a fantastic movie and I'll forever cherish this. I remember watching this with my mom and aunt. I have only seen a select few films in theatres with my mom and this one was by far my favoruite watching with her... She passed away last year, but anyhow I'm so glad you enjoyed this movie! I loved it.
I have mo clue why this was suggested to me now. Because I just lost my dad few months ago. And seeing all the dad appreciation comment really melts my heart ❤️
Kinda reminds me of this last weekend that I made my mom ( with newly diagnosed dementia ) take care of her feet/toes and oof..trying to manage her nails and I'm worried and she also has (possible?) fungus. Possible because she's not the most reliable so not sure if this is fungus or old lotion trapped under her long long long toenails. Ugh, either way, gonna be working on that with her over the next weeks...gonna watch this reaction now.
My great grandma passed while fighting dementia in 2012 I wish you and her long and Amazing lives and I am sure she would be so proud to know how strong you have become she just struggles to remember to tell you sometimes.
Your father would be proud of what a thoughtful kind young woman you are, and how much you love him. As a dad myself, I 100% know he would have been thinking of you when watching it.
I think the reason why there’s such a massive degree of time dilation is because Millers planet orbits closely to the Black Hole. Gravitational pull of a black hole is so strong that it literally bends light. Therefore space-time is distorted based on how fast light travels around the BH vs how fast it travels under standard gravitational pull. If this is wrong, please correct me? I’d be eager to learn the specifics.
Nolan likes to shoot on real film. Like Dark Knight, he shot epic scenes in IMAX and others regularly to save on film costs. Over an hour of this movie is filmed on 65mm IMAX. The rest was shot with various 35mm cameras. It's possible certain formats were more "grainy" than others, or that he added them with filter or some such.
Sorry for your loss. I also lost my dad May of 2024. I was 47 at the time, and he was 69. I must say you're way too young to have lost yours, but you are handling it quite well. This film certainly is one to get cathartic with. 😢
Interesting fact: When they were trying to come up with a visualization of the black hole they inputed the data into a computer and they saw what was in the movie and were like "Oh this can't be right..." but then realized that gravity warps the light so that it appears like that and they wrote a paper about how black holes would actually appear.
I always enjoy your reactions. I think for your next 'light' fun movie you should watch the first Ant-man. It's about the story of... oh wait, I can't tell you and spoil it 😊 It stars Michael Douglas... and Evangeline Lilly... oh and new guy Paul Rudd 😆
They gave data from inside the black hole which is impossible to transmit normally, which made them be able to build an oneill cylinder which is the station near saturn at the end of the movie
48:33 By the solving the problem of gravity, they meant finding a theory of quantum gravity that is accurate at high energies. This is an open problem in physics. In quantum mechanics, the quantity that we use to make predictions is an infinite sum (of operators). We try to approximate this sum by introducing an "energy cut off" variable E. We then try to cancel out E by using experimental data. This is called renormalisation. With other forces, higher energy terms in the series produce more and more negligible corrections. With gravity though, the higher energy terms become more and more relevant in the final result. This means that, with gravity, we need high energy experimental data to make the theory work at high energies. We don't have any such data because particle accelerators haven't been able to produce high energy experiments. In Interstellar, Cooper got that data from within a Black Hole. But how to transmit it? Here the movie takes some liberties and uses the saying that time and space interchange inside a black hole, coupled with an actual mahine placed by the future, to do time travel inside the black hole. It's really impressive that a Hollywood movie got physics facts remarkably right. I think Nolan had discussed this with Kip Thorne. Wish they explained some of these details in the movie.
Every time I tried to skip the intro, you kept talking about your toenails lol.. I got no context, but just found it funny. Will prolly watch the intro some day :3
Yes, this movie was shot on film. Nolan is one of the few disciples of celluloid left (Tarantino and Paul Thomas Anderson being a few others). This was shot on both 35mm-anamorphic and 65mm-IMAX formats. This film being the last time Nolan would shoot on 35mm as he’s since moved on to exclusively shooting 65mm for both standard 65 and IMAX formats depending on the scene.
I don't really have a great relationship with my father, he was a difficult man when i was a kid and still is. But i watched this movie in theatres with him and it deeply moved me especially at the end when murph said "my dad promised me" it killed me.
I had a dream about it being a similar situation for me as a child experiencing time passing that fast and seeing the change, saw this movie for the first time last year, thought someone slipped something in my drink. Never knew a movie could capture the pure emptiness you feel when it happens
They needed more information about gravity but it could only be obtained by being inside the black hole. Cooper then influenced the gravity in Murphy’s bedroom to send messages through time. The fifth dimensional humans are able to SEE time as a dimension and thus made it three dimensional so cooper could understand. Every moment ever within Murphy’s bedroom was available to cooper and through love he found the right moments to send the messages.
I haven't had my toenail front flip up opposite of how it should be but I HAVE had TWO toenails on separate occasions start disintegrating from the back of the bed to the front of the nail. The first time was from after dropping an ammo box(I'm not a gun person, but it was my grandfather's from WWII, I use to to storage spare batteries) on my BIG toe. The bottom of the nail bed turned deep red, then the entire nail came loose from the under portion of the toe bed but was still stuck on the toe skin, so I could literally wiggle around my big toe nail back and forth like the tip of my nose, NOT NATRUAL AT ALL and felt extremely strange. Then that's when the base/back of the nail started disintegrating. It was like the back of my nail had a street pot hole in it and I basically to got it to start it's journey into looking normal again I had to/choose to cut into the back of my nail and work my way forwards to the front of the nail with nail clippers. The pot hole in it looked insanley graphic and NASTY (I have pictures I'm afraid to show anyone).Eventually there was no nail left. It was painful, but the slower I when the less pain it was. Took literally 4-5 months to grow back. Had to use a bit of cotton and push it between the nail and skin to make sure it didn't cut ingrown into the right side of my skin while it was growing. Now about a year later it looks perfectly normal again. Then 2 weeks ago I noticed my roast beef nail had literally just decided it was time for the back to move on up like the trunk of a car. It was perfectly healthy, it just decided to lift up for some reason. Being 40, and that never happening before, I was quite confused. This one though, being a smaller toe that was much more pliable and less surface area, I was able to remove the whole thing fairly easy but just cutting the entire back off to the middle of the front, then only the most front part of the nail was still attached. THAT part was painful. After that though, I had a nicely smooth though a bit sensitive alien feeling nail-less toe that I could sort of forget didn't have a nail once I put my sock and shoe on. It's only when I take them off that I'm reminded there's no nail there. In fact, I'm gonna take my shoe and sock off right now *untie, POP, unfurl*. Feeling and looking at it now, most of the bottom of the nail has grown back, and the top half is still quite thin with a bit of a lip on the edge of the false "front" where the edge should be isn't soft but also isn't a nail yet. Quite strange.... Well, I typed this after hearing about your nail story, on to the movie reaction!
Not sure if this has already been answered but on the wave planet, the reason they were so upset was because while they knew how much time meant going onto the planet, because of the wave they spent longer than they intended. What was meant to be like a 5 minute, drop in, get the data and leave turned into like an hour. So they relatively spent decades there
It's okay to miss people we love that have died. Even Brand says it, "We love people who have died, where's the social utility in that?". People who have died continue to live on through the memories and stories we share about them.
My dad and I saw this in theaters when it came out and we both cried a bit afterwards. Was the last movie i saw with him before his medical issues reduced his quality of life. Don't worry, he's still alive and i take care of him now, but i think every day about how he won't be around much longer and it kind of sucks. Don't think I'm really mentally prepared for it. Best thing i can do is spend more time with him and cherish the memories with him, the happiest memories of my life.
Big films are still filmed on physical film, these days alot of smoothing is added to hide the grain. But the sharpest and most accurate image is when there is no smoothing and full grain is in effect. My favourite example of that is the original Alien film. Streaming with lower bitrates can also hide the grain

I can tell you one thing with 100% certainty. If you said that your dad watched this movie, he 100% thought of you at every father/daughter scene.
I lost my dad when I was only 6 years old. I am now a dad myself. Seeing you put on your dad's work apron was so sweet. As a dad, I can promise you that he absolutely thought of you while watching this. Remember, he is your ghost. He'd cross time and space and all eternity to save you and show his love for you. Never forget that. As long as you remember him, he will always continue to live on.

The most wholesome comment I've seen in quite some time
“Because my Dad promised me”. Big, slobbery tears every time. 😭😭😭
The line is so powerful, perfectly delivered, and perfectly sums up the main anchor of this film - love, and how powerful it can be.
Christ the amount of people that sprint to the comments to be the first person to regurgitate this is so cringe
I love slobbery
"My dad liked Drones....Hes dead" Same here girl 😂😭 That caught me off guard. Sorry lol
Yeah, I lost my mom two years ago. I really connected with her on this video. Completely thrown off when she dropped that bomb, lol.
It's hard to miss she beings it up every second sentence. Should be in the title
@@Brad-lt2re Im literally referring to the one moment. Go eat your breakfast
@@Brad-lt2re yeah go eat your breakfast shorty
How time works and the timeline of interstellar becomes more clear when you've seen the movie a couple of times. I've seen this movie about 5 times. The most recent was yesterday during the re-release in IMAX and it was so much more enjoyable when you know the plot in and out.
Fun fact: Christopher Nolan basicly just told composer Hans Zimmer the story is sci-fi but it focuses on the relationship of a father and his daughter. This is what he did.
He didn't even tell him it's a sci-fi movie, Hanz Zimmer had no idea initially and it's said in interviews from behind the scenes, Nolan didn't want the movie to have a typical "sci-fi" music so he initially only told him to make 1 song about love and father-daughter connection, which Zimmer got inspired from his own love towards his son and he made and played the Cooper-Murph theme to Nolan and he fell in love with it immediately. And just to clarify, a lot of people misunderstand that Zimmer wrote the whole score for the movie before even knowing what the movie is going to be about, which isn't true. He only did the father-daughter theme and the rest of the score he did and built on after that when he had more information. They recorded the organ music in a church in London to give this etherial and metaphysical feeling to it.
@@toreadoress Oh. I stand corrected.
The black hole, Gargantua, was actually created with a specific program that could take our current knowledge of black holes at the time, all the data we had, and simulate what the data says a black hole should look like. The result in the film is a little more dramatized, but it isn't far off what the simulation produced. And years later, when we finally got our first picture of a real black hole, it looked nearly identical to the one they simulated in Interstellar.
So, the black hole in this film is also part of scientific proof of our data on black holes being correct up to the current day.
Also, something else that i think is really cool is that it took about a month to render Gargantua, with some individal frames taking over 100 hours to render, even on a very, very powerful computer. It totaled out to be around 800 terabytes of data just for the black hole alone.
Christopher Nolan is certainly one of the best at practical effects, but his use of both practical and cgi in this film is so seamless and particularly interesting, especially when it comes to the black hole. He also hired one of the best theoretical physicists in the world, Kip Thorne, to be his advisor on this film, as well as on Tenet, and also advised Cillian Murphy on his portrayal of Oppenheimer. In the film, the robot of Dr. Mann is actually named KIPP, just as a little Easter egg.
Besides that, Kip Thorne basically wrote all of the equations you see on the chalkboards to make sure they actually made sense and didn't just look cool or sciencey. He played a major role in the entire film, in which Nolan was very adamant about not writing over the actual science too much, so that the science is actually done right and not just dramatized. Beyond Interstellar, Kip Thorne received the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics and the Nobel Prize for helping to develop the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, in which was used to detect, for the first time in human history, gravitational waves propagating throughout space-time, in which their origin was discovered to be two black holes merging together. So, he's probably the best person Nolan could've picked to advise him on this film, and because of that decision, the film, to this day, continues to be used as a reference to our knowledge of black holes. And is one of the biggest reasons why Nolan is one of my favorite directors of all time.
My favorite fact from Kip Thorne’s book about the movie, is that the black hole accretion disk would’ve been blue tinted on one side and red tinted on the other, due to the extreme orbital speed causing color shifts. They decided that that detail would be too much for the audience, but the idea of a blue and red black hole is awesome.
@Roach_Dogg_JR yes, that's one of my favorites as well, and I also like that they chose to leave it out of the film. It's truly the perfect balance of science and storytelling.
The crew before Coop’s arrival had been training in simulators..he on the other hand is a pilot and engineer..who has already touched space..he is the only one with real experience..they need a lot of Dramamine..when Anne passes out she is leaning back and passes out..he is,leaning into the spin..and remains conscious..
This movie is apparently set in 2067. Most of us could live to see a potential future like this
Speak for yourself pal, I'm 40 today!! I'll be the LITERAL dust in the wind😢
Not really. That was completely fictional setting and there is no potential for such future

Man that made me tear up😢
Damn
umm...no

God bless you! 😢
My father passed away in June and i just watched this movie again. Also miss my dad a lot and now it feels like some of the concepts and lines of this movie are even more impactful and brilliant than before. Shout-out to all the dads around the world that give their hearts and souls for their children. May they remember how important they are too!
My dad also passed away unexpectedly in June. My condolences to you. I have seen Interstellar many times before and I cried watching this reaction.
@@macantonioc My condolences to you too! Yeah those are always great and painful losses. Hard not to think about it watching this reaction...
Mine also passed but in may. Rest in peace to all our fathers
QT. You nailed this reaction. Christopher Nolan wasn’t just telling a story. He was almost narrating our future. And the entire score from Hans Zimmer really drew out the emotion. The both of them make this movie an epic story.
And that little joke about “my dad loved farming” is a subtle joke from a daughter to let her father know she forgave him.
Thank you for releasing this one and sharing your story. This reaction brought me to as much genuine tears as the movie originally did. This was absolutely beautiful.
I am so glad you ultimately decided to post this. I've cried countless times to this movie but seeing it again along with seeing you crying to it thinking about your own dad really brought out the waterworks and made me really appreciate that I am lucky enough to have both of my parents alive.
32:46 It's because of Time Dialation. The planet they are on, the water planet, is so close to the black hole that the gravity of the black hole is bending space time. So the closer you get to a significantly massive object the more slow your clock movies in relation to clocks on Earth. The same effect happens when you move closer to the speed of light.
I’m pretty sure she understood the time dilation. She just wasn’t sure why they couldn’t leave.
The best piece of behind the scenes trivia about this film that you could possibly know, is that all of the visual effects were done PREproduction as opposed to post-production like the overwhelming majority of films do. This is so that whenever actors are reacting to some special effects during shooting, Nolan has those effects - because they were already done - projected onto screens for the cast to actually see and actually react to. Anne Hathaway said the first time she saw the black hole/wormhole on set during shooting she was moved to tears with how beautiful it was.
Where did you hear this? Or saw this? Is there any video we can watch these interviews or bts? The bluray?
@@datdudeinred Well personally I have a limited edition of a Blu-ray combo pack DVD with a separate special features disc but I'm gonna assume the "limited" aspect of that has to do with all the other stuff that came with it, and not like the content included in the special features. So with that said, I imagine that any currently available version of the film should have all the special features I have access to on my edition and that it is during interviews in the special features where Nolan himself says that his team did all the visual effects ahead of time in pre-production and then during filming they had those effects being projected onto screens for the cast to react live to instead of using green screens. It may also be in those interviews where Anne Hathaway talks about seeing the black hole for the first time but that might just be from a random junket interview. Is it junket or junkit? I dunno. Anywho, yeah I assume it should be available on any version of the film that includes special features.
The "quantum data" is the observational data of a naked singularity (inside of a black hole), which was the missing piece of the Professors research and why he gave up on ever finishing it. The concept is that even if you can send something or someone down into a black hole to observe a naked singularity, it's an absolute that nothing ever physically leaves a black hole, not even light, not even information, so there'd be no way to get the data back to the Professor. That's why he, very rationally, gave up on that research and moved on to Plan B. But some future 5d humans built that mechanism INSIDE the black hole to connect people with those they cared about back home. Even humans so far in the future counted on love being the strongest human motivator, and it saved humanity. It's how they could get Cooper Station into space. So Plan A worked in the end!
If you liked this movie I know FOR A FACT that you will like Arrival too! It's a fantastic movie with much the same vibe as this, but also very different. SUPER worth a watch!
Heyyy... first time watcher. I'm so so sorry you lost your Dad. I know how you feel and just wanna say hi and I'm really glad you seem to have a healthy outlook on everything. Best wishes for you, your loved ones, and your channel!
Thank you for sharing this reaction with us, as hard as it might have been. Your truly such a courageous person
Huge props to you for pausing to make most comments! Very rare to see that. Most reactors talk over the movie and important dialogue gets completely missed then they wonder why certain things don’t make sense to them.
Didn't really help her. She misunderstood or didn't pay attention to most of the film
Condolences. In the days and years to come, may you find your father present to you in new and mysterious ways.
Great video, Tofu
This movie really sneaks up on you. You go in thinking you're just getting some cool sci-fi, and instead you end up going through the emotional wringer. lol Still hits, all these years later. And you brought some great commentary to it. Probably could've done without the toenail story, but after you had to go through it, I guess you've got a right to share the suffering a little. lol
Interstellar's a favorite of mine, so it was fun getting to re-experience that with you. Glad you liked it.
This is my first video I have seen from QueenTofu......that was quite the intro! 10/10 would get distracted again
28:14 I takes about 1.5 hours for a radio signal to reach Saturn from Earth.
So almost as long as that toenail story. 🧐
dont they use some sort of quantum data transmission to transmit data instantly in this movie?
@@c0hink176 no
@@c0hink176 no. its explained why they cant transmit data, but only recieve it bruh... when Coop got back from the first planet, he had 23 years of messages stored..
@@c0hink176 no, you're confusing the quantum data they get from within the black hole with just regular radio communication
I lost both my parents, but they’re still with me every so often you’ll be reminded of that they’re still with you.. forever. But yeah, it’s interesting how it works when you least expect it , the thought of them will come .. or they’ll remind you that they’re still there.. Even decades later
Thanks for the reaction, tofu. It's my favorite movie ever.
Been following you since your red dead 2 playthrough. Very happy you finally watched this wonderful masterpiece of a movie.
Very sorry about your dad, I know just how you feel. Much love. ❤
I'm glad you're reacting to this! My second-favorite movie of all time (Ghostbusters being number one). I've missed your movie reactions as I'm not a gamer!
@QueenTofu this movie came out a few years after I lost my dad (I was young). I’m a dad now, and I can watch it from both Murph’s and Cooper’s perspectives. It tears me up every time. And I love it all the more for it. What Coop says to Murph as he’s getting ready to leave is one of those golden moments when art perfectly captures a snippet of life:
“Now we’re just here to be memories for our kids. Once you’re a parent, you’re the ghost of your children’s future.”
I understand that now on a level that tells me that line came from someone who lived it. My dad died years ago, but he’s also here every day, gently haunting me through my memories, still changing the world bit by bit in the way he guides my parenting of a child he never got to meet. And I know intimately that one day I’ll be that ghost for my kid, too, so I do everything I can now to make sure he will have as gentle and welcome a haunting as I’ve been blessed with.
🥲
I'm glad that this reaction saw the light of day and in the end brought the light to my day. To start, I don't know you at all and it's the first time I come across this channel & yourself and if there's one thing, I truly enjoyed watching your experience through the screen from beginning till the end (without even touching the playback speed).
I know your dad was with you when you were watching it and I'm happy that you had another movie night with the dad.
On another note, when you said "It's such a sweet thought, you know, that I kind of sat down to watch a movie about space and it ended up being a movie about love.", it reminded me a piece from Matthew McConaughey's interviews on the movie: "In the center of it though, the heartbeat, is a father faced with the fact that his daughter who's 30 years older than when he left her thinks that he abandoned her. Love is space time. Love is that fifth dimension. Love is that thing that travels through time forward, backwards, up and down." 🪐🫶
Love from Amsterdam
P.S. I love when you said Cooper's jacket is kind of similar to Joel Miller's.
Oh hey, you posted early today! Waking up to Tofu...I could get used to this 😏
Starting things off with the toenail story was certainly a choice, goofball. lol Again, glad it all worked out for you, the hot soak was _very_ smart. Unlike your decision to subject me to that horror story for the second time. That was just cruel. lol
Personally, I love this movie, and I love that even so soon into it, you're digging it, too. I was right there with you on that parent-teacher conference: _great_ use of subtle and efficient exposition on the state of the world, and such a good character establishing moment for Cooper.
And since I just hit that part of the reaction: I _love_ your commentary. You are so funny, so smart, so thoughtful in the way you analyze the world, characters, and themes-if this video was just nothing but a full hour of you laying out every (non toenail related :Ρ) thought and opinion you had when watching this movie, it would still be a _fantastic_ watch. "Stop talking"? Pff, absolutely not
Yap for me, babe. I enjoy every second. ❤️
Cooper's departure gets me every time. It's such an interesting mystery that then suddenly barely even matters anymore in the face of the raw intensity of his cracking relationship with Murph. And yeah, the detail of him checking under the blanket again, her realizing she wants to say goodbye seconds after it's too late...ugh, fucking gets me. 😭
Having that tangible connection to ypur dad that you can throw on when you need it most is beautiful. I'm really glad you have that, Tof.
Interstellar _was_ shot on film, good call. And the thing about everything but the bots being sorta low tech is a real philosophy that NASA has. You know the joke about how indestrucible old Nokia phones are? Same thinking. You build it in the older style, simple, with more mechanical components than fancier touch screens and other more advanced but fragile shit like that, and there's less chance for stuff to break and less you ultimately have to do specialized maintenance on.
Anyway...
Dude, when this movie picks up, it's just fucking _going_ for it. The tension on Mann's planet is so good, and the "No time for caution" scene is one of those crazy moments that's just gonna stay with me for years and years. The stakes, the music, the shots-excellent. And I love the black hole stuff. It just marries really cool sci-fi things with emotionally satisfying metaphilosophy so well and it just _works_ for me. _So_ good.
Sending you so many hugs during that ending, love 🫂 🫂
Don't feel bad about being a little confused there, either. It's not super obvious. I'm sure someone (or many someones, given the way these comments work lol) have probably explained this already, so feel free to ignore me and skip ahead, but the short version of what the hell's going on with the "aliens" is that we're essentially looking at a lowkey stable timeloop. The mission "fails", and Brand enacts Plan B on her planet, creating a new human civilization from the stored embryos. Uncountable years go by, that civilization grows, flourished, and eventually advances to the point where they can manipulate time and gravity. These now highly advanced humans of the future create the wormhole and the construct hidden away inside the black hole to change time and correct what originally went wrong, allowing Cooper to pass Murph the secret of gravity manipulation much, much earlier so that she can use it to get the people still living on Earth in our "present day" to safety.
The end (Sorry, not actually that short, I'm realizing 😂)
This was such a good reaction, Tofu. Thank you for sharing it, for taking a chance on a movie that picked at a painful wound so many times, and for allowing yourself to be vulnerable enough to feel the entire rollercoaster of emotions it ellicited. You're amazing, babe. And you always bring your A game for us. Love you a ton. ❤️
Great comment, but I wanted to correct one thing: the explanation you gave of the aliens and black hole is only one of two possibilities. Your story uses the "branched time" hypothesis where free will is unfettered and there are many timelines that branch off from one another. The alternate explanation assumes "invariant time," "fixed time," or "fated time." In _that_ case, events proceeds exactly as we see them presented here with Murph cracking the manipulation-of-gravity problem with help passed on from the far future and the population of Earth migrating off planet. Eventually, the descendants of those human beings figure out "all the spacetime stuff" and they create the wormhole, etc., thus closing the loop on their causality.
I’ve been watching with you since TLOU2…this was the last movie me and my dad saw in theaters before he passed in 2015. Miss him everyday. Your father is always with you - this video proves it. 🙏
48:42 The quantum data was the data they were missing to solve the equation. Tars collected the data and gave it to Cooper to send to Murph.
Cooper also brings TARS to Wolf's planet, who still has the data. The beings who helped earth were the descendants of Wolf's planet.
My mom passed away Feb. 29th this year, 2024. So I do empathize. It hurts...and I still don't know if I've even processed it yet fully. I know it gets easier, but will never go away.
This movie was the last movie we watched together, so it hits me so hard. When we watched it, I wish I would've known how powerful of a memory was being made at that moment in space and time. Only if I had known, I would've expressed my love for her so much more strongly. Someday we'll all get there and we'll all understand just what it's all about.
Such a touching comment ❤
"Do you see your children?" I'm not even a parent and that scene was one of the most heartbreaking lines of the movie.
Thank you for releasing this. A story of love
This was precious, thank you.
You just made my day. Just finished watching your reaction. First off, that toenail story was insane. I had a hangnail on my toe one time and it was painful. Second, I watched this movie when it first came out in 2014. I watch it with my family every chance we get. We all share a love of science fiction. Though you're not the first person to react to this movie in recent years, you're reaction was truly heartwarming for me to watch. I'm gonna go hug my dad after this. I'm literally crying right now. Thank you so much!
I miss my old man dearly too, sweetheart. The loss of a parent is one of the most traumatizing events in our lives. I dont think time heals, it just helps you cope.
About halfway through the reaction, and we already have several nice editor burns! Another quality Tofu reaction, just made a good day great!
Yes it was physical film. Nolan won’t use digital cameras he loves film despite how inconvenient it is to film with compared to digital.
I never had a father figure growing up but I sure had an amazing mother. I lost her at 18. I’m 31 now. This movie brings me so much emotion because I miss what I never had, and I also miss my mother. It reminds me of the things I missed out on, and how amazing my mother truly was because as a child I never realized I was missing out on anything at all.
sending you love and hugs
Watching your reaction to this about your dad, makes me miss my dad even more, he died three years ago, and I miss him every day. 😢
Rip.
Me too!
I know that particular feeling of loss too, Tofu. Big hugs
I'm so sorry for the loss of your father. Please take some peace in knowing that when people die they don't disappear, they just go somewhere else and they're waiting for us to come join them. You'll see him again!
Love the intro! We all need more of them !
Great reaction like always, my absolute favorite movie. The score is beautiful and the story is emotionally compelling, Incredible. Amazing. Spectacular. Stupendous. Breathtaking. Excellent. Perfect. These are all synonyms of this masterpiece of cinema. The sentence "because my dad promised me" always makes me cry heavily. Murph is the most important scientist in human history, she has changed the course of the future through scientific knowledge but she says that the very one thing she was certain in life was the love her father had for her, that made her certain of his return.
There are some fun facts about this movie. The real TARS isn’t precisely the complex AI machine you saw in the movie; rather, TARS is a giant puppet. Interestingly, lollipop sticks inspired the robot’s design. Behind the 200lbs (90.72kg) robot was Bill Irwin, who voiced the character and controlled its movements. However, he left the more complicated moves for stunt man Mark Fichera.
Christopher Nolan wanted that this movie to remain as close to actual science as possible. As a result, he joined forces with the 2017 Nobel Prize for Physics winner, Dr. Kip Thorne, on the project. However, it wasn’t all smooth sailing as Dr. Kip Thorne and Christopher Nolan had disputes, while Nolan wanted to exceed the speed of light, Dr. Thorne stood his ground about staying true to science. Nolan finally came around and agreed to Dr. Thorne’s solution. Keeping in line with Nolan’s desire to maintain scientific accuracy, Dr. Kip Thorne provided the theoretical equations for the wormhole and black hole simulation. Paul J. Franklin and his team at Double Negative developed new CGI software that could realistically represent scientific phenomena in the film.
Nolan wanted a brand new score for Interstellar, and he got that, he contacted Hans Zimmer and asked him to develop the score for the movie. However, he didn’t give Zimmer much to go off on. He simply presented Zimmer with a single-page text describing the movie’s main themes. So, without a script, title, or plot details, Zimmer created the score for Interstellar, in the end the score successfully embodied the heart of the movie. The shoots filmed in Dr.Manns planet was shot in Iceland, Svínafellsjökull Glacier, east of Skaftafell, an outlet glacier of Vatnajökull in Vatnajökull National Park.
Keep up the good work.
Fun fact: Tars is voiced by the eventual author and astrophysicist to the book. the theories developed from the movie/books led to the actual research of black holes and found that their theories were basically spot on as far as what the black hole would look like. I cant remember how long ago but they eventually got visuals of and cross referenced it with the research and found it all to be true
I noticed The Last of Us music playing during Tofu's talk after the scene of Cooper talking to the two teachers at school.
is that TLOU music I hear in the background when you're talking? Really great movie; Inception next?
As dad I can tell you 100% your dad was thinking of you when he watched this movie which is why he loved it so much.
I am 100% with you on the video title. I lost my day a year ago and this movie just feels so much different watching it now.
I'm happy you watched this movie! This movie was meant for you and your dad! ❤
Reading all these comments while watching the beginning of the reaction has me tearing up already and we haven't even gotten to the tear-jerking scenes yet. I lost my Dad 4 years ago this month. I miss him so, but they live on through us everyday. 💖
One of my favorite movies. Appreciate you baring your soul to us Tofu, your videos are some of my favorite on UA-cam.
Lost my dad right after i turned 18. Lost my mom ten years after. You're not alone. We're not alone.
Loved this you are the best Tofu!
I could give you a hug right now, while also making sure not to step on your toe lol. Looking forward to your continuation of Spider-Man 2 and Batman The Enemy Within.
Thank you for being open. It was beautiful and l truly appreciated you wearing your father's shop gear. I wear my father's Vietnam Veteran Hat. It means more than l understand and l am glad that l have it. You are awesome. Great reaction.
I absolutely love Interstellar! It is such a fantastic movie and I'll forever cherish this. I remember watching this with my mom and aunt. I have only seen a select few films in theatres with my mom and this one was by far my favoruite watching with her... She passed away last year, but anyhow I'm so glad you enjoyed this movie! I loved it.
OMG, your use of The Last of Us song during commentaries was brilliant!!
I have mo clue why this was suggested to me now. Because I just lost my dad few months ago. And seeing all the dad appreciation comment really melts my heart ❤️
I miss my Dad. Through everything. Hang in there.
MORE QUEEN TOFU MOVIE REACTIONS PLSSSS. Luv u
Great reaction. I love this movie, so many thanks. I am now subscribed.
Kinda reminds me of this last weekend that I made my mom ( with newly diagnosed dementia ) take care of her feet/toes and oof..trying to manage her nails and I'm worried and she also has (possible?) fungus. Possible because she's not the most reliable so not sure if this is fungus or old lotion trapped under her long long long toenails. Ugh, either way, gonna be working on that with her over the next weeks...gonna watch this reaction now.
My great grandma passed while fighting dementia in 2012 I wish you and her long and Amazing lives and I am sure she would be so proud to know how strong you have become she just struggles to remember to tell you sometimes.
We’re gonna have to put Tofu on Inception
I'm grateful and honored you decided to share this with us
grateful that you took the time to watch the video, thanks so much! :)
@@QueenTofu I'm sorry if I was too much. I recently learned I'm too much most times. I'll stay quiet now.
Your father would be proud of what a thoughtful kind young woman you are, and how much you love him. As a dad myself, I 100% know he would have been thinking of you when watching it.
I think the reason why there’s such a massive degree of time dilation is because Millers planet orbits closely to the Black Hole. Gravitational pull of a black hole is so strong that it literally bends light. Therefore space-time is distorted based on how fast light travels around the BH vs how fast it travels under standard gravitational pull. If this is wrong, please correct me? I’d be eager to learn the specifics.
Nolan likes to shoot on real film. Like Dark Knight, he shot epic scenes in IMAX and others regularly to save on film costs. Over an hour of this movie is filmed on 65mm IMAX. The rest was shot with various 35mm cameras. It's possible certain formats were more "grainy" than others, or that he added them with filter or some such.
Sorry for your loss. I also lost my dad May of 2024.
I was 47 at the time, and he was 69. I must say you're way too young to have lost yours, but you are handling it quite well.
This film certainly is one to get cathartic with. 😢
Interesting fact: When they were trying to come up with a visualization of the black hole they inputed the data into a computer and they saw what was in the movie and were like "Oh this can't be right..." but then realized that gravity warps the light so that it appears like that and they wrote a paper about how black holes would actually appear.
I lost my dad when I was eight. Life was hard and you learn to live with it but the pain never goes away.
I always enjoy your reactions. I think for your next 'light' fun movie you should watch the first Ant-man. It's about the story of... oh wait, I can't tell you and spoil it 😊 It stars Michael Douglas... and Evangeline Lilly... oh and new guy Paul Rudd 😆
We have always been here for the yapping bud!
They gave data from inside the black hole which is impossible to transmit normally, which made them be able to build an oneill cylinder which is the station near saturn at the end of the movie
48:33 By the solving the problem of gravity, they meant finding a theory of quantum gravity that is accurate at high energies. This is an open problem in physics.
In quantum mechanics, the quantity that we use to make predictions is an infinite sum (of operators). We try to approximate this sum by introducing an "energy cut off" variable E. We then try to cancel out E by using experimental data. This is called renormalisation.
With other forces, higher energy terms in the series produce more and more negligible corrections. With gravity though, the higher energy terms become more and more relevant in the final result. This means that, with gravity, we need high energy experimental data to make the theory work at high energies. We don't have any such data because particle accelerators haven't been able to produce high energy experiments.
In Interstellar, Cooper got that data from within a Black Hole. But how to transmit it? Here the movie takes some liberties and uses the saying that time and space interchange inside a black hole, coupled with an actual mahine placed by the future, to do time travel inside the black hole.
It's really impressive that a Hollywood movie got physics facts remarkably right. I think Nolan had discussed this with Kip Thorne. Wish they explained some of these details in the movie.
Every time I tried to skip the intro, you kept talking about your toenails lol.. I got no context, but just found it funny. Will prolly watch the intro some day :3
Yes, this movie was shot on film. Nolan is one of the few disciples of celluloid left (Tarantino and Paul Thomas Anderson being a few others).
This was shot on both 35mm-anamorphic and 65mm-IMAX formats. This film being the last time Nolan would shoot on 35mm as he’s since moved on to exclusively shooting 65mm for both standard 65 and IMAX formats depending on the scene.
wait YOUVE BEEN UPLOADING??? UA-camEEEE *SHAKES FIST AGGRESSIVELY *
🤣🤣🤣
I don't really have a great relationship with my father, he was a difficult man when i was a kid and still is. But i watched this movie in theatres with him and it deeply moved me especially at the end when murph said "my dad promised me" it killed me.
I had a dream about it being a similar situation for me as a child experiencing time passing that fast and seeing the change, saw this movie for the first time last year, thought someone slipped something in my drink. Never knew a movie could capture the pure emptiness you feel when it happens
They needed more information about gravity but it could only be obtained by being inside the black hole. Cooper then influenced the gravity in Murphy’s bedroom to send messages through time. The fifth dimensional humans are able to SEE time as a dimension and thus made it three dimensional so cooper could understand. Every moment ever within Murphy’s bedroom was available to cooper and through love he found the right moments to send the messages.
Idk if I've just never noticed it before but using The Last Of Us music behind your cooking is inspired
I haven't had my toenail front flip up opposite of how it should be but I HAVE had TWO toenails on separate occasions start disintegrating from the back of the bed to the front of the nail. The first time was from after dropping an ammo box(I'm not a gun person, but it was my grandfather's from WWII, I use to to storage spare batteries) on my BIG toe.
The bottom of the nail bed turned deep red, then the entire nail came loose from the under portion of the toe bed but was still stuck on the toe skin, so I could literally wiggle around my big toe nail back and forth like the tip of my nose, NOT NATRUAL AT ALL and felt extremely strange. Then that's when the base/back of the nail started disintegrating. It was like the back of my nail had a street pot hole in it and I basically to got it to start it's journey into looking normal again I had to/choose to cut into the back of my nail and work my way forwards to the front of the nail with nail clippers. The pot hole in it looked insanley graphic and NASTY (I have pictures I'm afraid to show anyone).Eventually there was no nail left. It was painful, but the slower I when the less pain it was. Took literally 4-5 months to grow back. Had to use a bit of cotton and push it between the nail and skin to make sure it didn't cut ingrown into the right side of my skin while it was growing. Now about a year later it looks perfectly normal again.
Then 2 weeks ago I noticed my roast beef nail had literally just decided it was time for the back to move on up like the trunk of a car. It was perfectly healthy, it just decided to lift up for some reason. Being 40, and that never happening before, I was quite confused. This one though, being a smaller toe that was much more pliable and less surface area, I was able to remove the whole thing fairly easy but just cutting the entire back off to the middle of the front, then only the most front part of the nail was still attached. THAT part was painful. After that though, I had a nicely smooth though a bit sensitive alien feeling nail-less toe that I could sort of forget didn't have a nail once I put my sock and shoe on. It's only when I take them off that I'm reminded there's no nail there. In fact, I'm gonna take my shoe and sock off right now *untie, POP, unfurl*. Feeling and looking at it now, most of the bottom of the nail has grown back, and the top half is still quite thin with a bit of a lip on the edge of the false "front" where the edge should be isn't soft but also isn't a nail yet. Quite strange.... Well, I typed this after hearing about your nail story, on to the movie reaction!
Not sure if this has already been answered but on the wave planet, the reason they were so upset was because while they knew how much time meant going onto the planet, because of the wave they spent longer than they intended. What was meant to be like a 5 minute, drop in, get the data and leave turned into like an hour. So they relatively spent decades there
Your dad is on your heart always
Love your energy so much ❤️
I often joke that Christopher Nolan is so committed to practical effects that Interstellar was shot "on location".
It's okay to miss people we love that have died. Even Brand says it, "We love people who have died, where's the social utility in that?". People who have died continue to live on through the memories and stories we share about them.
Yeah I lost my dad earlier this year this year at 16 and its been a struggle definitely but heartwarming movies like this are amazing
My dad and I saw this in theaters when it came out and we both cried a bit afterwards. Was the last movie i saw with him before his medical issues reduced his quality of life. Don't worry, he's still alive and i take care of him now, but i think every day about how he won't be around much longer and it kind of sucks. Don't think I'm really mentally prepared for it. Best thing i can do is spend more time with him and cherish the memories with him, the happiest memories of my life.
Big films are still filmed on physical film, these days alot of smoothing is added to hide the grain. But the sharpest and most accurate image is when there is no smoothing and full grain is in effect. My favourite example of that is the original Alien film. Streaming with lower bitrates can also hide the grain
My Dad Also Died In 2021 Because of Covid Pandemic 😢 I Understand Your Pain Queen tofu Your Dad Always Alive In Your Memories Life Is Complicated Good People Always Go Early To God 😢 I am from India Queentofu I Watched Your Red Dead Redemption Gameplay Multiple Times ❤
There's a theory that Cooper died in the accident at 9:02 and the rest of the movie is his journey into the afterlife, echoing Dante's Inferno/Homers Illiad/Odysee
Of course I'd watch this the day before his birthday 😢
My mom passed away two years ago. I don't speak about it with anyone, don't really like to share anything I feel about it. But hearing your thoughts about your father somehow makes me feel a bit better
In the 1920s, scientist also said the world would end in 20 years. So.
