I have been watching you guys for years now and Jane i really think you like gore lol. You always say rip there heads off or chop em in half. thats my guess lol
Should look at a video of the black hole. Turns out a recent picture confirms thats what they look like. And also the only light from the black hole is the disc like saturns. All the other light is just that light bent
I’m 21 and my amazing, beautiful Mother is 63. I know I don’t have much time but she is very healthy, and she hasn’t had signs of slowing down. I pray everyone else’s Mothers have a long life.
The notes when she says "because my dad promised me" will always break me. It's perfect, genius from Hans Zimmer, just amazing. That bass... Damn, I'm crying again.
The line that got ME the most was during the earlier intense scene: "And today I'm the age you were when you left." When I saw "Interstellar" myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]... I half-consciously wondered "Ok, why are my eyes watering (and dripping down my nose)??" Actually since my first-time watch of "Inside Out"a few years prior, I had developed a big appreciation for emotional movies (that was the first time I firsthand felt the feel-good brain endorphins that can come along with tears). So...when I noticed I was reacting that way to "Interstellar", I was actually annoyed with myself for trying to eat (hence unwittingly distracting myself) during such a profound moment! After that, I put my food DOWN if I sensed something important was coming up :P And...I WAS rewarded at that ending scene :) But anyway, despite "Inside Out" having made me into a "tearjerker-seeker", I discovered it was notoriously hard to find a movie that would do that to me again. Interstellar was the first one since "Inside Out" (a few YEARS afterwards). "Interstellar" was the first movie that really made me wonder "Do OTHER people react this way... or is it just me?" Upon finding some reactions of course I soon saw it was NOT "just me" :)
Interstellar is one of the greatest sci-fi movies ever made. This movie genuinely contributed to the scientific community, they actually got 2 research papers published about this. When Christopher Nolan was working on this movie rather than have an “artist’s concept” of what a black hole would look like he worked with a physicist named Kip Thorne and asked him how black holes work. So Kip gave him a bunch of maths, they sent the math to the VFX team, they put it in their render engine (which is far more powerful and expensive than anything that exists in the community) and what it produced was completely unexpected. They knew that a black hole would have what’s known as an accretion disc, but what they didn’t expect as this weird halo effect around it. The VFX team thought it was a bug so they sent it to Kip and he both confirmed that that’s what it would look like and was surprised on how well it looked. This is what a black hole would look like because the gravity is so powerful that it’s pulling light from the other side and causing you to see a second halo because you are seeing the other side of the black hole. And the time dilation is 100% accurate. If you are near something with a strong gravitational pull like a planet larger than earth or a black hole your “clock”, meaning your time, will run slower than on earth. I’m still surprised that 8 years later no one else has used that in a sci-fi movie or tv show.
@@darrel7589 I just thought the latter half of the movie was interesting to say the least, although I wouldn't say it was the greatest sci-fi movie ever, but a good one considering the last half was interesting and the visuals were definitely great
@@alexanderstewart439 no it’s not just the black hole it was from the size of the planet itself which gives off a stronger gravitational pull. They literally said that. However scientists have said while the math is accurate there would be no way they would’ve survived because the gravity alone would crush them all.
To be clear, Kip Thorne had been working on black holes before there was ever any idea for the film and he wanted a visual made, so he reached out to Digital Domain or some other VFX studio to help him make a visual based on his math equations, just for himself/his research. Thorne then thought this could be good for a movie so he pitched the idea to Jonathan Nolan, and then later on Christopher Nolan was brought on to direct and he decided to add his own changes to the script. They kept the first hour of the script same as the one Jonathan wrote, but changed the part after that to show them going off into space, which was apparently not in the original script. Basically, the scientist went to Hollywood instead of Hollywood devising the idea or approaching the scientist to help them as their advisor.
Literally, when TARS said goodbye to Brand, I cried harder than any part of this movie. Sooo glad TARS “survived”, but does he “remember”? It seemed unclear.
I have a theory that it was a TARS that survived the original earth and hit singularity. It then was able to transcend time and space and place the wormhole near Saturn on the past to help mankind survive. So TARS maybe the MVP twice.
Fun fact: We've recently gotten images of a black hole and this movie captures it perfectly, also all the science in this movie is pretty much completely sound.
To be honest it's not such a great scientific/technologic thing, physicist knew what the accretion disk of a black hole looked like. The difference between them and Christopher Nolan is that scientists don't have millions of dollars to renderize a black hole neither need to do it, they have the equations. Anyway Nolan and the production made the great choice to elaborate a quite scientific accurate black hole (and the render engine to do that) instead of a pure artistic one. Interstellar is a good example of how even something as popular as an American blockbuster can be the driving force behind science popularisation. I think it would not be bad if others followed the good example too.
@@nicoladc89 Yeah the fact that Astrophysicists and Astronomers were brought on board for Interstellar was a brilliant move by Nolan. One of the reasons i trust his filmmaking process. Popularizing science through media could only bring benefits and engage conversation.
Even though everyone thought Murph was so resentful toward her dad for leaving one thing that people don’t recognize is that Murph as an adult is wearing the same jacket Coop was wearing when he left earth that day. Which showed that her love for her dad was always there and never wavered even in his absence
I saw this on IMAX opening weekend. One of the best cinematic experiences of my life. I couldn't imagine how relevant this film would be if I was a father
I only just noticed, after a dozen viewings, after the booby trap explosion TARS uses the phrase "I could not save him". I think he repeats it. Very formal, no contraction. Every other time he uses contractions, such as: "I can't". And there was a note of regret in his voice. Admittedly programming, but an interesting detail.
THE GREATEST MOVIE. The Soundtrack is AMAZING. Hans Zimmer has never wanted to say which score of his is his favorite, but he finally caved in and said Interstellar.
And he didn't even know it was a science fiction film, Nolan told him to compose a soundtrack for a film about a parent forced to stay away from his children for work reasons.
Wow well... I am definitely glad he named this his favorite. It is BECAUSE (at least partially) of the soundtrack that I had the reaction of "WHAT is this movie DOING to me??!!" :P When I saw "Interstellar" myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]... I half-consciously wondered "Ok, why are my eyes watering (and dripping down my nose)??"
@@nicoladc89 Yep, and that it was originally about the relationship between a father and his son, not his daughter. That was a later change but they left it alone anyway.
I started worrying for you guys when you broke into tears around the 15 minute mark...considering what was coming. This movie really strikes a chord deep in all of us.
One thing I think you guys seemed to misunderstand was that, only one person was sent to each planet, so Matt Damon’s character was the only one there until Cooper, Brand, and Rumlee got there. So Edmunds, setup that entire base camp on his planet by himself.
So Matthew's character and the difference with Anne's in their experience as Pilots. When the G-Forces are being applied when docking. He leans into the Spin, versus she leans with it. Causing her to pass out while he remains conscious. Shows his experience and expertise as a pilot. Just a cool little nod.
I feel bad for every person who hasn't gotten to see the wave scene in theatres. That was one of the most mind blowing things I've ever witnessed. Made my jaw drop
To answer the sound in space question. The only time youll hear something in space is if you breath, talk, communicate over radio or if you touch something because the soundwaves will travel through your suit and body and then become audible
I love how you subconsciously choose movies that are sure to break you down emotionally... Also also some cool facts about the film: - Cooper's station is modeled on O'Niell cylinder. - Several tracks of Hans Zimmer's original score were recorded at a tempo of a beat per second (sixty beats per minute), precisely matching the passage of time, a recurring theme of the movie. These key scenes include "Imperfect Lock", "No Time For Caution" (the docking scene), and varying portions of "Stay", "Mountains" (the water planet), and "Detach". - The Gargantua black hole appearance is relatively well depicted and the images of the black hole taken years later look very similar to what Nolan showed.
Funny you should say "subconsciously choose" movies that break one down emotionally... because I personally try to CONSCIOUSLY choose such movies for MYSELF, lol.... here's the story behind that: Actually for most of my life, I actually didn't care at all about tearjerkers and actually avoided them and didn't cry much in general. BUT... ever since my first-time watch of "Inside Out" a handful of years ago (in my 30's), I had developed a big appreciation for emotional movies (that was the first time I firsthand felt the feel-good brain endorphins that can come along with tears). But despite "Inside Out" having made me into a "tearjerker-seeker", I discovered it was notoriously hard to find a movie that would do that to me again. Interstellar was the first one since "Inside Out" (a few YEARS afterwards). "Interstellar" was the first movie that really made me wonder "Do OTHER people react this way... or is it just me?"

I was actually annoyed with myself for trying to eat (hence unwittingly distracting myself) during such a profound moment! After that, I put my food DOWN if I sensed something important was coming up :P And...I WAS rewarded at that ending scene :)
This is described in chapter 31 of The Science of Interstellar, which was written by Kip Thorne, the physicist who was the science consultant for the movie: Early in Interstellar, when Cooper first visits the NASA facility, he is shown a giant, cylindrical enclosure being constructed to carry thousands of humans into space and house them for many generations: a space colony. And he's told there are others being constructed elsewhere. "How does it get off Earth?" Cooper asks the Professor. "Those first gravitational anomalies changed everything," the Professor replies. "Suddenly we knew that harnessing gravity was real. So I started working on the theory-and we started building this station." ... How did it get lifted into space? The key, of course, was the quantum data (in my scientist's interpretation, the quantum gravity laws) that TARS extracted from Gargantua's singularity (Chapters 26 and 28) and Cooper transmitted to Murph (Chapter 30). ... Murph must have figured out how to reduce Newton's gravitational constant G inside the Earth ... In my interpretation, with Newton's G reduced inside the Earth to, say, a thousandth of its normal value for, say, an hour, rocket engines could lift the enormous colonies into space. As a byproduct, in my interpretation the Earth's core-no longer compressed by the enormous weight of the planet above-must have sprung outward, pushing the Earth's surface upward. Gigantic earthquakes and tsunamis must have followed, wreaking havoc on Earth as the colonies soared into space, a terrible price for the Earth to pay on top of its blight-driven catastrophe. When Newton's G was restored to its normal strength, the Earth must have shrunk back to its normal size, wreaking more earthquake and tsunami havoc. But humanity was saved. And Cooper and ninety-four-year-old Murph were reunited. Then Cooper set out in search of Amelia Brand in the far reaches of the universe.
I’m so glad there’s just a few cuts in the reunion scene, it’s so powerful it’s a shame to cut it off too much.. “Because my dad promised me” hurts so much
1) on Miller's planet (water planet) the person in the lest scene could be either Miller or Doyle 2) Mann took 12 people with him, but each one of them got to a different planet, so that they can identify every planet in one go, and only three of the group sent 'possible life' message -- Miller, Mann and Edmund. 3) Mann knew that no one on Earth will be able to survive, so, just like professor brand (the old guy) he planned to steal their spaceship and travel to Edmund's planet (where there was life) so he can grow the fertilized eggs that were onboard to make literally new people and create a new civilization.
My GF and me went to this movie on our First date We both are some space nerds and love this movie We are still together this movie hits different in our lifes 😅
Nolan is an absolute treasure. Dunkirk, memento, inception, batman, interstellar, tenet, much more and the upcoming Oppenheimer, I'm really excited for. I haven't seen all his movies but all the ones I've seen are absolute gold.
This is my favorite movie of all time. In my 30 years of life I’ve never come across a better movie imo. Seeing it in IMAX was like a religious experience 😅😂
A few years ago I had to leave my native country and my young daughter for work. It was like traveling to another universe, far away from my greatest love my little daughter, not knowing when I would see and hug her again. At that time I saw this movie and through the feelings... oh there are no words for it. Still one of my most favorite movies. And definitely the most personal and emotional.
im writing this paused at 15:47 just to say, FINALLY. people who aren't scared to cry on camera when they understand the gravity (haha, get it) of the situation. thank you
I am also appreciative of the showing of emotion, because... When I saw "Interstellar" myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]...

I was watching this on my tv and pulled out my phone just for this. When bro had tears running down his face when they heard 23 years before he even sat to watch the messages I was like oh he’s cooked lmao
Fun fact for this movie which shows how absolutely amazing it is - when they land on Miller's planet you hear a 'tick tock' sound in the music like a clock. Each 'tick tock' is a day passing on earth.
On Millers planet, the soundtrack includes a "ticking" that happens ever 1.25 seconds. This ticking signifies 24 hours on Earth. So every Tick from the moment they land is a whole day.
homeboy's visceral reaction to the emotional scenes made this reaction to this movie feel like how i felt when i first watched this movie. Great video both of you!:)
if you remmeber Dr.Brand said that she can feel that his planet is habitable and that love travels trough time and space, and she was right his planet was habbitable i think its a nice way of showing that she knew from the start
I always imagined Cooper finally making it back to Brandt on that planet and after some time hearing the voice of his father giving sage advice "start pulling your weight young man to start repopulating the Earth" while shedding an ever so loving tear at that distant memory.😢
Cool fun fact during the docking scene, Cooper pushes his head in the opposite direction of the spin while Brand keeps hers towards resulting in her passing out. A little detail showing whos more experience.
Btw that ticking throughout the score on first planet is there for a reason, every 1.25 seconds (the tick plays) they are there is 24 hours back on earth, basically they lose a whole day every second they are there, since every hour is 7 years
The decision to have the robots as just simple blocks was a genius idea I think. It keeps them in the background as characters so the focus is on the human characters and relationships but still makes them likeable through the dialogue - if they had made the Robots a humanoid shape they would have been too distracting from the main characters. Although having said that JV seemed to get rather more attached to TARS compared to other reactors I've seen. 😂
I remember watching this movie when it first released when I was in high school and I cried in the movie theater. This is my favorite movie of all time 🐐

Definitely my favorite film directed by Chris Nolan. And arguably my favorite soundtrack ever composed for a movie and/or tv show (for me, it gets points due to its uniqueness as well). I'm not ashamed to admit that this beautiful movie caused me to openly weep in the theater (had me thinking about my son and having to leave him behind). People who aren't parents yet will better understand after they have kids. The notion that I failed to watch my beloved child grow up just completely shattered my heart (especially when Cooper is visibly in despair).
BEAUTIFUL reaction, you guys! I adore the show of empathy and am honored by it. It also warms my heart to hear you mirror each other or finish sentences, it shows how much you love each other and at the end of the day have a great friendship, too :D
Great reaction guys. It's nice to see someone who gets as emotional as I do over this movie! If you liked this, you might try Arrival with Amy Adams. It's another incredible (and incredibly emotional) sci-fi film about parenthood. Some others to consider are JoJo Rabbit, Pan's Labyrinth, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. And if you ever decide to do another show, BoJack Horseman is about as good a show as you'll find! The first season is so-so (at least the first half of it) but it becomes a masterpiece later one, which I realize is a weird thing to say about a cartoon about a talking horse man, but there you have it. Can't recommend it highly enough. Thanks for sharing your reactions!!
Oh jeez YES! It's SO awesome how you mentioned "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" because that was only one of TWO total movies that triggered THE most intense cry of my LIFE (actually, for that one, it happened AFTER the movie, I guess when the wheels in my head had some quiet time to start turning). Saw it only a few weeks ago. If you're curious about what the OTHER movie was that did that to me... it was "The Land Before Time" (about 7 months prior to "Eternal Sunshine..."). But... for most of my life, I actually didn't care at all about tearjerkers and actually avoided them and didn't cry much in general. BUT... ever since my first-time watch of "Inside Out" a handful of years ago (in my 30's), I had developed a big appreciation for emotional movies (that was the first time I firsthand felt the feel-good brain endorphins that can come along with tears).

@@sathvamp1 Awesome! Yep I'm a tear-jerker-seeker too. Inside Out is one of my absolute favorite movies ever. Just thinking of the theme makes me get emotional. Im telling ya, if you give it a chance, BoJack Horseman will be a great experience for you. It's as sad as sad gets at times. (Plus just brilliantly written. The dialogue and relationships are so realistic.) It has short episodes and seasons (
Knew this would get the tears!! Such an epic movie, one of the best Sci-fi films not just of recent times but - for my money - ever!, Christopher Nolan at his finest! Film was great, cast was great, story, effects - the lot! - but special shout out from me for Hans Zimmer for one of THE most epic, moving & uplifting scores that caused just as many feels as the movie itself! Thanks for the awesome reaction! 😊😊❤
This is my favorite movie. I could watch it every day and never get tired of it. The soundtrack and story is just amazing. I read that Nolan bought land and planted those crops just for the beginning scene bc he didn’t want to ruin someone else crop field! 🌽
The TV show, "The Expanse" is one of the most scientifically accurate shows while this movie, "Interstellar", is the most scientifically accurate movie. As an Arizonan it always cracks me up to see reactors so shocked by the haboob (sandstorm). I’ve had to wait for buses to/from work in these. There were no other astronauts per planet. Each of the 12 astronauts went to different planets. The 3 in the movie were the closest to he wormhole. The Cooper and the crew's shuttle was being pulled into the spinning black hole that they had named, "Gargantua", and they had no fuel to fly/pull away from it. Cooper first released the robot, T.A.R.S., into the spinning black hole wanting the robot to try and gather data while traveling through the black hole. This way, if the robot gets found by someone they can try to gather the data and use it. To prevent Dr. Brand from dying Cooper then released Dr. Brand's shuttle at a specific time so that the spinning black hole's gravity would slingshot/swing her off towards the other planet that they did not have enough fuel to get to using the ship alone. When Cooper's shuttle gets pulled into the spinning black hole it begins to fall apart because of the strong gravity, but because the black hole was spinning he did not get pulled apart like we would with a stationary black hole. He ejects himself from the shuttle, but quickly falls into a TESSERACT. The tesseract that the future "humans" placed in the black hole for him is a physical representation of a 4th dimension for humans of today to make sense of. The future humans that built the three dimensional bookcase in five dimensional space essentially pinpointed a specific coordinate in the universe that was important to Murphy (obviously she became the most famous figure of Earth’s exodus so they knew she was the key) and used that point to send Coop. They did not know at what point in time he was able to communicate everything of importance to her, so instead they gave him a “ladder” of time to glide through and find those points in time for himself. In this tesseract Cooper is only seeing different moments in time of his daughter's bookcase. He can go to a time when she's very young or older and try to communicate by pushing her books. At first, he doesn't realize that he needs to help her build the space stations that will eventually house the people from Earth. So, at first, he tries to communicate with her just like the 'ghost' was in the beginning of the movie and he fails to get her to make him stay. When he realizes that this is something he cannot change he realizes he can also communicate with T.A.R.S. He asks T.A.R.S. to take ALL gathered data from the black hole and the future humans and encode it into the movement of Murphy's watch's second hand. Using Morris Code T.A.R.S. is able to share the info with Murphy. The entire time Murphy is doing her work to build the space stations Cooper is in her book case working with T.A.R.S. He is still alive. Doctor Brand found out that the man she loved had found a planet that humans can live on, but he had died in a landslide. This is why his beacon had stopped earlier in the movie. Cooper was guided by his love, which was a theme of the movie and is the only force we can conceive across time and space. This movie is about love. Love for your children, love for your significant other, love for humanity, etc. Had Coop allowed Dr. Brand (Anne Hathaway) to seek out Edmund in the beginning , they would’ve found their new home immediately. Her love was guiding her as well, and even though logically Matt Damon’s planet seemed like a better bet (due to his fake data), her love was pointing true. Side note: I do still blame her for everything going wrong from Miller’s planet though, lol. Dr. Mann kept finding ways to imagine himself of being capable of accomplishing many things and then he kept failing. He thought his planet would be THE next human planet and he'd be the hero of mankind. He thought he'd stay with Cooper while he died; but then got overwhelmed with the consequences of his own actions and gave up. He failed at going forward with the mission because of his own hubris. He was a villain, yes, but I kind of get how/why he went insane. He and the other 11 astronauts left Earth 10 years before Cooper & Brand. He had been alone on his plane for 34 years by the time Cooper, Brand, and Romly get to him. I mean, look what happened to America & other nations after the COVID lockdowns. That was only 3 months & we humans are SO undeniably more messed up than ever before. The movie is based on an original concept by producer Lynda Obst and theoretical physicist Kip Thorne and is set around 2067. In the event horizon/center of the black hole is a tesseract; a 3 dimensional representation of our future 5 dimensional understanding of time. If Cooper travels “up” or “down” in the tesseract he is able to view different moments in the past and touch the items in each time to communicate with Murphy. Tom, Cooper’s son, had a baby while Cooper was in space, but the baby (Jesse) died early on and was buried out behind the house and later so was Grandpa. Tom died 20 years or so before Cooper made it out of the tesseract and to Saturn. More of the scientific details are in Kip’s book, “The Science of Interstellar”.
As somebody who lives in the midwest, and a specific limited area that has some of the best soil on the planet, the concept of crop issues/soil issues contributing to the end of the planet is very realistic. We have a "soil degradation" issue that is caused by deforestation, overgrazing, and construction, where crop soil becomes vulnerable to erosion from both wind and water. There are certain "cover crops" that do what their name suggests--covering the soil--that prevent/work against this problem/vulnerability, but you can't plant the same crop consecutively, so it can't be entirely avoided. This is different from a blight, but we do have issues in crop country that is caused by the expansion of enterprises that directly harm the environment
I'm not big on sci-fi movies but this is by far my favorite! The emotional aspect of the father/daughter dynamic and concept of love transcending everything really ties it all together. Not to mention the outstanding score from Hans Zimmer, as always. When Coop descends into the tesseract, I felt like I was falling with him. The music really makes that moment. Christopher Nolan and Hans Zimmer go together like PB&J
Back in the days the teaser gave me goose bump, one of my friend went to see the movie in theater and reported me that at the end while leaving everyone was silent, couple days later i went to see it with my gf was not a si-fi fan….in a different theater ans same story every body left like we where in shock, she was speechless to
Sandstorms in Abu Dhabi, you say? We had a dust storm in West Texas in 2011 that looked exactly like the one in this film! Seeing this in theaters was like a flashback.
great reaction. im so happy you both showed all your emotion in this reaction bc i was right there with you reliving the first time i watch this movie. and yes i cried like 4 times at least. Such a magnificent movie.
Same here! When I saw "Interstellar" myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]... I half-consciously wondered "Ok, why are my eyes watering (and dripping down my nose)??" Actually since my first-time watch of "Inside Out"a few years prior, I had developed a big appreciation for emotional movies (that was the first time I firsthand felt the feel-good brain endorphins that can come along with tears). So...when I noticed I was reacting that way to "Interstellar", I was actually annoyed with myself for trying to eat (hence unwittingly distracting myself) during such a profound moment! After that, I put my food DOWN if I sensed something important was coming up :P And...I WAS rewarded at that ending scene :) But anyway, despite "Inside Out" having made me into a "tearjerker-seeker", I discovered it was notoriously hard to find a movie that would do that to me again. Interstellar was the first one since "Inside Out" (a few YEARS afterwards). "Interstellar" was the first movie that really made me wonder "Do OTHER people react this way... or is it just me?" Upon finding some reactions of course I soon saw it was NOT "just me" :)
This film is a masterpiece. The music, the story, the performances. Everything was amazing. So beautiful and so heart-wrenching. The sfx for the wormhole was based on actual theoretical physics. It was the most accurate rendering of a black hole, it was so accurate, requiring completely new rendering techniques to be created, that 3 scientific papers were based off the insight it gave.
Let me tell ya-first time I watched this movie, that wave planet haunted me for *months*. I live on the west coast, about an hour from the beach, and know we’re overdue for a big earthquake. I kept getting nightmares that the earthquake hit and triggered a huge wave that swept the city. Ironically, it was learning about how tsunami’s actually work that helped me get over my nightmares. 😅
I don't now how you don't understand the motivation of Matt Demons character, he's not scared to die, he's trying to keep the people of Earth from destroying themselves, he's trying to keep hope alive, not himself
Its the realisation of age of a person from child to youngster to old which makes us cry 😢 the director knew it so perfectly ❤ old murph reminded us to young murph and young murph reminded us to little murph its the age gap which made us feel so phenomenal ❤
Great job you two... I can't ever get enough of Interstellar reactions. When I saw it myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]... I half-consciously wondered "Ok, why are my eyes watering (and dripping down my nose)??" Actually since my first-time watch of "Inside Out"a few years prior, I had developed a big appreciation for emotional movies (that was the first time I firsthand felt the feel-good brain endorphins that can come along with tears). So...when I noticed I was reacting that way to "Interstellar", I was actually annoyed with myself for trying to eat (hence unwittingly distracting myself) during such a profound moment! After that, I put my food DOWN if I sensed something important was coming up :P And...I WAS rewarded at that ending scene :) But anyway, despite "Inside Out" having made me into a "tearjerker-seeker", I discovered it was notoriously hard to find a movie that would do that to me again. Interstellar was the first one since "Inside Out" (a few YEARS afterwards). "Interstellar" was the first movie that really made me wonder "Do OTHER people react this way... or is it just me?" Upon finding some reactions of course I soon saw it was NOT "just me" :) So... thanks for being part of that!
@allthingsiyana Speaking of sad movies trumping other sad movies... a few nights ago I saw the [Korean version- there are SEVERAL versions apparently] of the movie "Miracle in Cell No. 7" --- THAT one triggered a very complex reaction from me. It's apparently a lot simpler for MOST people (basically, just sad, sad, sad)... but for me, that emotion of sadness and a certain other emotion were having the most epic battle in my head. It was actually REALLY uncomfortable to say the least, but it makes for an interesting story for whoever's already seen the movie lol. I'd give more details such as what that "certain other emotion" was... but I've become a big fan of "not spoiling" movies for others if they haven't seen them :P
There was no "rest of the crew" for the initial Laserus astronauts. Each one went to a seperate world alone. So Dr Mann (Matt Damon) was always alone on the ice planet.
This is the greatest movie ever made to me. No film has ever moved me like this before, - or since. It's a masterpiece and if it ever comes back into the cinemas I will gladly pay to watch it again and again.
There is no denying that Interstellar is a classic of its genre and a really strong movie, full of emotions. Your reaction was very good. I didn't even know you hadn't seen the movie. You should watch another of Nolan's films, in a similar vein to Interstellar (though perhaps not quite as emotional), with just as much intricacies of time - Tenet. Besides, I recommend, as usual, my favorite film for reaction - Alita: Battle Angel. I think You might like it.
fun fact: when they land on the first planet, the metronome sound you hear while theyre on the planet is 1 year passing by on earth if im not mistaken; i'd have to double check but i remember reading about it when i first watched the movie
I think because the higher beings have access to infinite timelines, they happened upon this timeline in the 3rd dimension where humanity was going to die, and decided to help.
This is my inaugural video with your channel and I instantly became a fan and now follower. Thank you for your honesty response to this master class in story telling.
9:07 "I want a hot dog". There's a line in the script that didn't make the final movie, you see Murph about to say it, but then it was cut, she asks "What's a hot dog?". Kinda wish they'd left it in, showing how dire the food situation is, and giving a little more detail that they haven't even had animal food in this world for years
This makes me contemplate leaving for for long stretches on the road for work. My two young daughters would see me go. Missing softball games and the daily hum drum of life with my family. I finally changed jobs, but we would never get that time back. I’ll never know how much I lost. Now trying to make up for lost time. The one thing you can never get back. This will forever haunt me.
The best thing about this movie is, it has all kind of emotions. Every time you watch it, you'll have a different perspective. This movie is built with so much love and passion. Every time I watch it, I find a different meaning and perspective on my life. It will always be my favourite movie.
I’ll assume someone already posted that there was only one person for each mission to check out each planet to see which was habitable and then the movie covers the mission to check on each planet and collect the data that had been collected from each solo mission
Sound in space is complex. Remember sound can travel through any matter - if you hit on a wall made (in this example let's image it's a totally solid metal) then someone on the other side will hear you, because the wall is vibrating the air. You don't even need the air, e.g. during cowboy times in the US if you wanted to cross a rail bridge you could put your ear to the track - you can hear trains that are miles away because they're sending sound through the track, and it's actually going straight into cochlear etc without ever going through air. Similarly if two ships collide in space of course it'll make a sound to both in each ship. And if a ship explodes nearby it's going to pelt you with debris that you will hear. Also radio works in space of course.
I think that the movies answer to your question about the time paradox would be "murphy's law" Anything that can happen will happen, and since the longshot of cooper and his daughter working across time through gravity is possible it enables the future where humanity gains control of gravity through the quantum data getting transmitted, which enables the people in the future to reach back in time and make it all happen. Short term that equation let them create a gravity propulsion engine or something and long term who knows what you could accomplish with that. That's my guess anyways murphy's law is mentioned at the beginning and never really revisited, just kinda drops that (not so) subtle hint. I looked it up to make sure I wasn't being dumb and this guy said it better "I think the significance of Murph's name is a signpost to "them" being humans. Because there's no like multiple time streams or anything, there's no alternate universe, it's just that that happens, end of. Murph finds the watch, she figures it out, it can happen, so it will happen. Murphy's law makes it so."
Christopher Nolan is brilliant. Bring in Hans Zimmer for the music. Ann Hathaway Matthew McConaughey Jessica Chastain Michael Cane Matt Damon. I mean. Cmon. Formula for brilliance on all levels
Interstellar is one of the few scifi films/TV that actually seriously deal with the time interpolation of space travel. The other being GunBuster, which we watched with you years ago 😘

Should look at a video of the black hole. Turns out a recent picture confirms thats what they look like. And also the only light from the black hole is the disc like saturns. All the other light is just that light bent
@@jsalex17 I like your guess. I'm going to go with romance just because.
How Hanz Zimmer didn't get an Oscar for the soundtrack is criminal. One of the best movies in my opinion
100% agree
Not criminal. But typical of human ignorance.
Hans Zimmer does not need an oscar, oscar needs a Hans Zimmer
It's because he fell asleep on the Church Organ.
..at least according to Honest Trailers..
Hans Zimmer is my favorite composer. So many good soundtracks
The line "once you become a parent, you're the ghost of your child's future" really hits different once you lose a parent.
Really hits different when you are the parent.
i read this in my head exactly when it was said - never seen this movie so omg
Nolan brothers wrote this movie just after they lose their dad.
Oscars today are irrelevant
I’m 21 and my amazing, beautiful Mother is 63. I know I don’t have much time but she is very healthy, and she hasn’t had signs of slowing down. I pray everyone else’s Mothers have a long life.
The notes when she says "because my dad promised me" will always break me. It's perfect, genius from Hans Zimmer, just amazing. That bass... Damn, I'm crying again.
The line that got ME the most was during the earlier intense scene: "And today I'm the age you were when you left."
When I saw "Interstellar" myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]...

It always breaks me too. Even if I manage to hold it together for the rest of the movie, that line… So beautiful.
Especially knowing she held on to that promise probably since the day he left..😢
Interstellar is one of the greatest sci-fi movies ever made. This movie genuinely contributed to the scientific community, they actually got 2 research papers published about this. When Christopher Nolan was working on this movie rather than have an “artist’s concept” of what a black hole would look like he worked with a physicist named Kip Thorne and asked him how black holes work. So Kip gave him a bunch of maths, they sent the math to the VFX team, they put it in their render engine (which is far more powerful and expensive than anything that exists in the community) and what it produced was completely unexpected. They knew that a black hole would have what’s known as an accretion disc, but what they didn’t expect as this weird halo effect around it. The VFX team thought it was a bug so they sent it to Kip and he both confirmed that that’s what it would look like and was surprised on how well it looked. This is what a black hole would look like because the gravity is so powerful that it’s pulling light from the other side and causing you to see a second halo because you are seeing the other side of the black hole.
And the time dilation is 100% accurate. If you are near something with a strong gravitational pull like a planet larger than earth or a black hole your “clock”, meaning your time, will run slower than on earth. I’m still surprised that 8 years later no one else has used that in a sci-fi movie or tv show.
@@darrel7589 I just thought the latter half of the movie was interesting to say the least, although I wouldn't say it was the greatest sci-fi movie ever, but a good one considering the last half was interesting and the visuals were definitely great
Yea but the one hour is 7years on earth is BS IMO. If you were close enough to a black hole to get this effect you would be pulled in!
@@alexanderstewart439 It's a movie, duuh. It would be no fun if there's no such ridiculous idea
@@alexanderstewart439 no it’s not just the black hole it was from the size of the planet itself which gives off a stronger gravitational pull. They literally said that. However scientists have said while the math is accurate there would be no way they would’ve survived because the gravity alone would crush them all.
To be clear, Kip Thorne had been working on black holes before there was ever any idea for the film and he wanted a visual made, so he reached out to Digital Domain or some other VFX studio to help him make a visual based on his math equations, just for himself/his research. Thorne then thought this could be good for a movie so he pitched the idea to Jonathan Nolan, and then later on Christopher Nolan was brought on to direct and he decided to add his own changes to the script.
They kept the first hour of the script same as the one Jonathan wrote, but changed the part after that to show them going off into space, which was apparently not in the original script. Basically, the scientist went to Hollywood instead of Hollywood devising the idea or approaching the scientist to help them as their advisor.
I love how this movie makes you care about a machine. TARS is the MVP of this film.
Coop fixing up TARS after he found him reminds me of ME with my car :D
Literally, when TARS said goodbye to Brand, I cried harder than any part of this movie. Sooo glad TARS “survived”, but does he “remember”? It seemed unclear.
I have a theory that it was a TARS that survived the original earth and hit singularity. It then was able to transcend time and space and place the wormhole near Saturn on the past to help mankind survive. So TARS maybe the MVP twice.
@@KeliiyamashitaI've heard this theory! I like to think it's accurate!
Yes! There's NO WAY in hell they could kill off the robots. We were already in it with them. They might as well as been family.
Fun fact: We've recently gotten images of a black hole and this movie captures it perfectly, also all the science in this movie is pretty much completely sound.
To be honest it's not such a great scientific/technologic thing, physicist knew what the accretion disk of a black hole looked like. The difference between them and Christopher Nolan is that scientists don't have millions of dollars to renderize a black hole neither need to do it, they have the equations. Anyway Nolan and the production made the great choice to elaborate a quite scientific accurate black hole (and the render engine to do that) instead of a pure artistic one. Interstellar is a good example of how even something as popular as an American blockbuster can be the driving force behind science popularisation. I think it would not be bad if others followed the good example too.
Except that green corn doesn’t burn 😂
@@rooseph7152 Except when it's blighted 👍
@@nicoladc89 Yeah the fact that Astrophysicists and Astronomers were brought on board for Interstellar was a brilliant move by Nolan. One of the reasons i trust his filmmaking process. Popularizing science through media could only bring benefits and engage conversation.
Except for the black hole thing lol
Even though everyone thought Murph was so resentful toward her dad for leaving one thing that people don’t recognize is that Murph as an adult is wearing the same jacket Coop was wearing when he left earth that day. Which showed that her love for her dad was always there and never wavered even in his absence
Oh, I never noticed.duh. interesting.
I saw this on IMAX opening weekend. One of the best cinematic experiences of my life. I couldn't imagine how relevant this film would be if I was a father
IMAX, 2nd row, had the theater to my self at noon on a thursday. Last time I was at the movies. nothing will top it for me
U experienced something I’ve dreamed of
I wish they could have this movie back in the theater and on Imax. I missed it. I regard missing it.
Gah 😢😢😢 luckkkky
i got lucky and was brought along for the ride for a Imax showing. it sticks as a core memory
Them: oh, its not global warming, its weird weather, crops dying, people starving...
Me: you might want to sit down for this
I only just noticed, after a dozen viewings, after the booby trap explosion TARS uses the phrase "I could not save him". I think he repeats it. Very formal, no contraction. Every other time he uses contractions, such as: "I can't". And there was a note of regret in his voice. Admittedly programming, but an interesting detail.
I felt that too
@@LisleVonRhuman I'm in awe of how much detail Christopher Nolan puts in all his movies..
THE GREATEST MOVIE. The Soundtrack is AMAZING. Hans Zimmer has never wanted to say which score of his is his favorite, but he finally caved in and said Interstellar.
And he didn't even know it was a science fiction film, Nolan told him to compose a soundtrack for a film about a parent forced to stay away from his children for work reasons.
Wow well... I am definitely glad he named this his favorite.
It is BECAUSE (at least partially) of the soundtrack that I had the reaction of "WHAT is this movie DOING to me??!!" :P
When I saw "Interstellar" myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]... I half-consciously wondered "Ok, why are my eyes watering (and dripping down my nose)??"
@@nicoladc89 for some reason that really does not ring true in certain parts of this soundtrack.
@@nicoladc89 Yep, and that it was originally about the relationship between a father and his son, not his daughter. That was a later change but they left it alone anyway.
I started worrying for you guys when you broke into tears around the 15 minute mark...considering what was coming. This movie really strikes a chord deep in all of us.
One thing I think you guys seemed to misunderstand was that, only one person was sent to each planet, so Matt Damon’s character was the only one there until Cooper, Brand, and Rumlee got there. So Edmunds, setup that entire base camp on his planet by himself.
So Matthew's character and the difference with Anne's in their experience as Pilots. When the G-Forces are being applied when docking. He leans into the Spin, versus she leans with it. Causing her to pass out while he remains conscious. Shows his experience and expertise as a pilot. Just a cool little nod.
TARS was a great character in this movie, that line "I could not save him" breaks me every time
“Auto self-destruct in T-minus 10…9…”
Glad y'all realized when Brand removed her helmet in the ending, a lot of people overlooked that pretty important scene.
"Where's Tars?" - you a real one for that. Boys looking out for boys.
15:56 "they did a good job making him look kinda malnourished" Hahahahahahah that's just Timothee Chalamet lmao, he just look malnourished
You guys should add Arrival (2016) to your list if you haven't watched it. It's a very human-story kind of Sci-Fi movie.
Such a great movie
YES! A great choice.
I would also add “Fire In The Sky”. No one ever reacts to that movie, based on a true account.
And "Moon"
Such an underrated movie! It's one of my favourities!
I feel bad for every person who hasn't gotten to see the wave scene in theatres. That was one of the most mind blowing things I've ever witnessed. Made my jaw drop
I agree, I had chills all over, with that music, it was unforgettable. this movie was totally unpredictable and that was truly amazing
i cant bleieve i was 4 when it came out im so sad 😭
I watched it 3 times in theaters for that reason!! 🙌
I was watching in IMAX in something like the third row. Sitting that close it almost feels like a 360 view. The whole thing was mind blowing.
@sedmidivka Likewise the slingshot black hole scene
To answer the sound in space question. The only time youll hear something in space is if you breath, talk, communicate over radio or if you touch something because the soundwaves will travel through your suit and body and then become audible
I love how you subconsciously choose movies that are sure to break you down emotionally...
Also also some cool facts about the film:
- Cooper's station is modeled on O'Niell cylinder.
- Several tracks of Hans Zimmer's original score were recorded at a tempo of a beat per second (sixty beats per minute), precisely matching the passage of time, a recurring theme of the movie. These key scenes include "Imperfect Lock", "No Time For Caution" (the docking scene), and varying portions of "Stay", "Mountains" (the water planet), and "Detach".
- The Gargantua black hole appearance is relatively well depicted and the images of the black hole taken years later look very similar to what Nolan showed.
Funny you should say "subconsciously choose" movies that break one down emotionally... because I personally try to CONSCIOUSLY choose such movies for MYSELF, lol.... here's the story behind that:
Actually for most of my life, I actually didn't care at all about tearjerkers and actually avoided them and didn't cry much in general.
BUT... ever since my first-time watch of "Inside Out" a handful of years ago (in my 30's), I had developed a big appreciation for emotional movies (that was the first time I firsthand felt the feel-good brain endorphins that can come along with tears).
But despite "Inside Out" having made me into a "tearjerker-seeker", I discovered it was notoriously hard to find a movie that would do that to me again. Interstellar was the first one since "Inside Out" (a few YEARS afterwards). "Interstellar" was the first movie that really made me wonder "Do OTHER people react this way... or is it just me?" Upon finding some reactions of course I soon saw it was NOT "just me" :)
During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]... I half-consciously wondered "Ok, why are my eyes watering (and dripping down my nose)??" So... I was actually annoyed with myself for trying to eat (hence unwittingly distracting myself) during such a profound moment! After that, I put my food DOWN if I sensed something important was coming up :P And...I WAS rewarded at that ending scene :)
This is described in chapter 31 of The Science of Interstellar, which was written by Kip Thorne, the physicist who was the science consultant for the movie:
Early in Interstellar, when Cooper first visits the NASA facility, he is shown a giant, cylindrical enclosure being constructed to carry thousands of humans into space and house them for many generations: a space colony. And he's told there are others being constructed elsewhere.
"How does it get off Earth?" Cooper asks the Professor. "Those first gravitational anomalies changed everything," the Professor replies. "Suddenly we knew that harnessing gravity was real. So I started working on the theory-and we started building this station."
...
How did it get lifted into space? The key, of course, was the quantum data (in my scientist's interpretation, the quantum gravity laws) that TARS extracted from Gargantua's singularity (Chapters 26 and 28) and Cooper transmitted to Murph (Chapter 30).
...
Murph must have figured out how to reduce Newton's gravitational constant G inside the Earth ... In my interpretation, with Newton's G reduced inside the Earth to, say, a thousandth of its normal value for, say, an hour, rocket engines could lift the enormous colonies into space.
As a byproduct, in my interpretation the Earth's core-no longer compressed by the enormous weight of the planet above-must have sprung outward, pushing the Earth's surface upward. Gigantic earthquakes and tsunamis must have followed, wreaking havoc on Earth as the colonies soared into space, a terrible price for the Earth to pay on top of its blight-driven catastrophe. When Newton's G was restored to its normal strength, the Earth must have shrunk back to its normal size, wreaking more earthquake and tsunami havoc.
But humanity was saved. And Cooper and ninety-four-year-old Murph were reunited. Then Cooper set out in search of Amelia Brand in the far reaches of the universe.
💯
I’m so glad there’s just a few cuts in the reunion scene, it’s so powerful it’s a shame to cut it off too much.. “Because my dad promised me” hurts so much
1) on Miller's planet (water planet) the person in the lest scene could be either Miller or Doyle
2) Mann took 12 people with him, but each one of them got to a different planet, so that they can identify every planet in one go, and only three of the group sent 'possible life' message -- Miller, Mann and Edmund.
3) Mann knew that no one on Earth will be able to survive, so, just like professor brand (the old guy) he planned to steal their spaceship and travel to Edmund's planet (where there was life) so he can grow the fertilized eggs that were onboard to make literally new people and create a new civilization.
The patch on the arm of the floating astronaut was Endurance. So it was definitely Doyle.
I love that line, “Don’t judge me cooper. You were never tested like I was, few men have been.”
My GF and me went to this movie on our First date
We both are some space nerds and love this movie
We are still together this movie hits different in our lifes
😅
Nolan is an absolute treasure. Dunkirk, memento, inception, batman, interstellar, tenet, much more and the upcoming Oppenheimer, I'm really excited for. I haven't seen all his movies but all the ones I've seen are absolute gold.
This is my favorite movie of all time. In my 30 years of life I’ve never come across a better movie imo. Seeing it in IMAX was like a religious experience 😅😂
Check out "The Room", way better than this one
This movie made me immediately get up at the end of it, and tell every family member and friend I appreciate them.
A few years ago I had to leave my native country and my young daughter for work. It was like traveling to another universe, far away from my greatest love my little daughter, not knowing when I would see and hug her again. At that time I saw this movie and through the feelings... oh there are no words for it. Still one of my most favorite movies. And definitely the most personal and emotional.
im writing this paused at 15:47 just to say, FINALLY. people who aren't scared to cry on camera when they understand the gravity (haha, get it) of the situation. thank you
I am also appreciative of the showing of emotion, because...

It doesn't matter if I watch a reaction, or a clip, or damn near hear a few seconds of the music. I almost always tear up at this movie. DAMN
I was watching this on my tv and pulled out my phone just for this. When bro had tears running down his face when they heard 23 years before he even sat to watch the messages I was like oh he’s cooked lmao
Fun fact for this movie which shows how absolutely amazing it is - when they land on Miller's planet you hear a 'tick tock' sound in the music like a clock. Each 'tick tock' is a day passing on earth.
On Millers planet, the soundtrack includes a "ticking" that happens ever 1.25 seconds. This ticking signifies 24 hours on Earth. So every Tick from the moment they land is a whole day.
homeboy's visceral reaction to the emotional scenes made this reaction to this movie feel like how i felt when i first watched this movie. Great video both of you!:)
if you remmeber Dr.Brand said that she can feel that his planet is habitable and that love travels trough time and space, and she was right his planet was habbitable i think its a nice way of showing that she knew from the start
I always imagined Cooper finally making it back to Brandt on that planet and after some time hearing the voice of his father giving sage advice "start pulling your weight young man to start repopulating the Earth" while shedding an ever so loving tear at that distant memory.😢
Cool fun fact during the docking scene, Cooper pushes his head in the opposite direction of the spin while Brand keeps hers towards resulting in her passing out. A little detail showing whos more experience.
Btw that ticking throughout the score on first planet is there for a reason, every 1.25 seconds (the tick plays) they are there is 24 hours back on earth, basically they lose a whole day every second they are there, since every hour is 7 years
"They did a good job of making them look malnourished"
I think thats just what timothee chalamet looks like😂
Yeah, he has a really unique shape to his face, he's got a strong jawline but his chin is pretty slim.
@wolfywox not unique at all. Plenty of skinny white boys with jaws and poor politics around
The decision to have the robots as just simple blocks was a genius idea I think. It keeps them in the background as characters so the focus is on the human characters and relationships but still makes them likeable through the dialogue - if they had made the Robots a humanoid shape they would have been too distracting from the main characters.
Although having said that JV seemed to get rather more attached to TARS compared to other reactors I've seen. 😂
ngl... my blood started to boil after the 14th "JUSTIN JUSTIN JUUssTIiinNN!!!"
I remember watching this movie when it first released when I was in high school and I cried in the movie theater. This is my favorite movie of all time 🐐

Definitely my favorite film directed by Chris Nolan. And arguably my favorite soundtrack ever composed for a movie and/or tv show (for me, it gets points due to its uniqueness as well).
I'm not ashamed to admit that this beautiful movie caused me to openly weep in the theater (had me thinking about my son and having to leave him behind). People who aren't parents yet will better understand after they have kids. The notion that I failed to watch my beloved child grow up just completely shattered my heart (especially when Cooper is visibly in despair).
Seen this in theatres during an 1145AM showing. I didn't leave the mall until 11pm after my third showing, its my favourite movie lol
BEAUTIFUL reaction, you guys! I adore the show of empathy and am honored by it. It also warms my heart to hear you mirror each other or finish sentences, it shows how much you love each other and at the end of the day have a great friendship, too :D
Thank you! That was so nice
Great reaction guys. It's nice to see someone who gets as emotional as I do over this movie! If you liked this, you might try Arrival with Amy Adams. It's another incredible (and incredibly emotional) sci-fi film about parenthood. Some others to consider are JoJo Rabbit, Pan's Labyrinth, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. And if you ever decide to do another show, BoJack Horseman is about as good a show as you'll find! The first season is so-so (at least the first half of it) but it becomes a masterpiece later one, which I realize is a weird thing to say about a cartoon about a talking horse man, but there you have it. Can't recommend it highly enough. Thanks for sharing your reactions!!
Eternal sunshine, please!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Arrival it's amazing
Wasn't impressed by Pan's Labyrinth. Actually, not a fan of del Toro's work at all.
Oh jeez YES! It's SO awesome how you mentioned "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" because that was only one of TWO total movies that triggered THE most intense cry of my LIFE (actually, for that one, it happened AFTER the movie, I guess when the wheels in my head had some quiet time to start turning). Saw it only a few weeks ago.
If you're curious about what the OTHER movie was that did that to me... it was "The Land Before Time" (about 7 months prior to "Eternal Sunshine..."). But... for most of my life, I actually didn't care at all about tearjerkers and actually avoided them and didn't cry much in general.
BUT... ever since my first-time watch of "Inside Out" a handful of years ago (in my 30's), I had developed a big appreciation for emotional movies (that was the first time I firsthand felt the feel-good brain endorphins that can come along with tears).
But despite "Inside Out" having made me into a "tearjerker-seeker", I discovered it was notoriously hard to find a movie that would do that to me again. Interstellar was the first one since "Inside Out" (a few YEARS afterwards). "Interstellar" was the first movie that really made me wonder "Do OTHER people react this way... or is it just me?" Upon finding some reactions of course I soon saw it was NOT "just me" :)
During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]... I half-consciously wondered "Ok, why are my eyes watering (and dripping down my nose)??" So... I was actually annoyed with myself for trying to eat (hence unwittingly distracting myself) during such a profound moment! After that, I put my food DOWN if I sensed something important was coming up :P And...I WAS rewarded at that ending scene :)
@@sathvamp1 Awesome! Yep I'm a tear-jerker-seeker too. Inside Out is one of my absolute favorite movies ever. Just thinking of the theme makes me get emotional. Im telling ya, if you give it a chance, BoJack Horseman will be a great experience for you. It's as sad as sad gets at times. (Plus just brilliantly written. The dialogue and relationships are so realistic.) It has short episodes and seasons (
Knew this would get the tears!! Such an epic movie, one of the best Sci-fi films not just of recent times but - for my money - ever!, Christopher Nolan at his finest!
Film was great, cast was great, story, effects - the lot! - but special shout out from me for Hans Zimmer for one of THE most epic, moving & uplifting scores that caused just as many feels as the movie itself!
Thanks for the awesome reaction! 😊😊❤
This is my favorite movie. I could watch it every day and never get tired of it. The soundtrack and story is just amazing. I read that Nolan bought land and planted those crops just for the beginning scene bc he didn’t want to ruin someone else crop field! 🌽
The TV show, "The Expanse" is one of the most scientifically accurate shows while this movie, "Interstellar", is the most scientifically accurate movie.
As an Arizonan it always cracks me up to see reactors so shocked by the haboob (sandstorm). I’ve had to wait for buses to/from work in these.
There were no other astronauts per planet. Each of the 12 astronauts went to different planets. The 3 in the movie were the closest to he wormhole.
The Cooper and the crew's shuttle was being pulled into the spinning black hole that they had named, "Gargantua", and they had no fuel to fly/pull away from it.
Cooper first released the robot, T.A.R.S., into the spinning black hole wanting the robot to try and gather data while traveling through the black hole. This way, if the robot gets found by someone they can try to gather the data and use it.
To prevent Dr. Brand from dying Cooper then released Dr. Brand's shuttle at a specific time so that the spinning black hole's gravity would slingshot/swing her off towards the other planet that they did not have enough fuel to get to using the ship alone.
When Cooper's shuttle gets pulled into the spinning black hole it begins to fall apart because of the strong gravity, but because the black hole was spinning he did not get pulled apart like we would with a stationary black hole. He ejects himself from the shuttle, but quickly falls into a TESSERACT. The tesseract that the future "humans" placed in the black hole for him is a physical representation of a 4th dimension for humans of today to make sense of. The future humans that built the three dimensional bookcase in five dimensional space essentially pinpointed a specific coordinate in the universe that was important to Murphy (obviously she became the most famous figure of Earth’s exodus so they knew she was the key) and used that point to send Coop. They did not know at what point in time he was able to communicate everything of importance to her, so instead they gave him a “ladder” of time to glide through and find those points in time for himself. In this tesseract Cooper is only seeing different moments in time of his daughter's bookcase. He can go to a time when she's very young or older and try to communicate by pushing her books. At first, he doesn't realize that he needs to help her build the space stations that will eventually house the people from Earth. So, at first, he tries to communicate with her just like the 'ghost' was in the beginning of the movie and he fails to get her to make him stay. When he realizes that this is something he cannot change he realizes he can also communicate with T.A.R.S. He asks T.A.R.S. to take ALL gathered data from the black hole and the future humans and encode it into the movement of Murphy's watch's second hand. Using Morris Code T.A.R.S. is able to share the info with Murphy. The entire time Murphy is doing her work to build the space stations Cooper is in her book case working with T.A.R.S. He is still alive.
Doctor Brand found out that the man she loved had found a planet that humans can live on, but he had died in a landslide. This is why his beacon had stopped earlier in the movie.
Cooper was guided by his love, which was a theme of the movie and is the only force we can conceive across time and space. This movie is about love. Love for your children, love for your significant other, love for humanity, etc.
Had Coop allowed Dr. Brand (Anne Hathaway) to seek out Edmund in the beginning , they would’ve found their new home immediately. Her love was guiding her as well, and even though logically Matt Damon’s planet seemed like a better bet (due to his fake data), her love was pointing true. Side note: I do still blame her for everything going wrong from Miller’s planet though, lol.
Dr. Mann kept finding ways to imagine himself of being capable of accomplishing many things and then he kept failing. He thought his planet would be THE next human planet and he'd be the hero of mankind. He thought he'd stay with Cooper while he died; but then got overwhelmed with the consequences of his own actions and gave up. He failed at going forward with the mission because of his own hubris. He was a villain, yes, but I kind of get how/why he went insane. He and the other 11 astronauts left Earth 10 years before Cooper & Brand. He had been alone on his plane for 34 years by the time Cooper, Brand, and Romly get to him. I mean, look what happened to America & other nations after the COVID lockdowns. That was only 3 months & we humans are SO undeniably more messed up than ever before.
The movie is based on an original concept by producer Lynda Obst and theoretical physicist Kip Thorne and is set around 2067. In the event horizon/center of the black hole is a tesseract; a 3 dimensional representation of our future 5 dimensional understanding of time. If Cooper travels “up” or “down” in the tesseract he is able to view different moments in the past and touch the items in each time to communicate with Murphy. Tom, Cooper’s son, had a baby while Cooper was in space, but the baby (Jesse) died early on and was buried out behind the house and later so was Grandpa. Tom died 20 years or so before Cooper made it out of the tesseract and to Saturn. More of the scientific details are in Kip’s book, “The Science of Interstellar”.
if you scream they still can't hear you guys, it's a movie.
As somebody who lives in the midwest, and a specific limited area that has some of the best soil on the planet, the concept of crop issues/soil issues contributing to the end of the planet is very realistic. We have a "soil degradation" issue that is caused by deforestation, overgrazing, and construction, where crop soil becomes vulnerable to erosion from both wind and water. There are certain "cover crops" that do what their name suggests--covering the soil--that prevent/work against this problem/vulnerability, but you can't plant the same crop consecutively, so it can't be entirely avoided. This is different from a blight, but we do have issues in crop country that is caused by the expansion of enterprises that directly harm the environment
I'm not big on sci-fi movies but this is by far my favorite! The emotional aspect of the father/daughter dynamic and concept of love transcending everything really ties it all together. Not to mention the outstanding score from Hans Zimmer, as always.
When Coop descends into the tesseract, I felt like I was falling with him. The music really makes that moment. Christopher Nolan and Hans Zimmer go together like PB&J
I've seen this movie 32 times not exaggerating. This is my all time favorite movie.
Back in the days the teaser gave me goose bump, one of my friend went to see the movie in theater and reported me that at the end while leaving everyone was silent, couple days later i went to see it with my gf was not a si-fi fan….in a different theater ans same story every body left like we where in shock, she was speechless to
Sandstorms in Abu Dhabi, you say? We had a dust storm in West Texas in 2011 that looked exactly like the one in this film! Seeing this in theaters was like a flashback.
great reaction. im so happy you both showed all your emotion in this reaction bc i was right there with you reliving the first time i watch this movie. and yes i cried like 4 times at least. Such a magnificent movie.
Same here!
When I saw "Interstellar" myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]... I half-consciously wondered "Ok, why are my eyes watering (and dripping down my nose)??"
Actually since my first-time watch of "Inside Out"a few years prior, I had developed a big appreciation for emotional movies (that was the first time I firsthand felt the feel-good brain endorphins that can come along with tears).
So...when I noticed I was reacting that way to "Interstellar", I was actually annoyed with myself for trying to eat (hence unwittingly distracting myself) during such a profound moment! After that, I put my food DOWN if I sensed something important was coming up :P And...I WAS rewarded at that ending scene :)
But anyway, despite "Inside Out" having made me into a "tearjerker-seeker", I discovered it was notoriously hard to find a movie that would do that to me again. Interstellar was the first one since "Inside Out" (a few YEARS afterwards). "Interstellar" was the first movie that really made me wonder "Do OTHER people react this way... or is it just me?" Upon finding some reactions of course I soon saw it was NOT "just me" :)
This film is a masterpiece. The music, the story, the performances. Everything was amazing. So beautiful and so heart-wrenching. The sfx for the wormhole was based on actual theoretical physics. It was the most accurate rendering of a black hole, it was so accurate, requiring completely new rendering techniques to be created, that 3 scientific papers were based off the insight it gave.
Oooooooh man, the parent/kid dynamic is going to hit you two hard in this one!
exactly what i was thinking when i saw the video show up on my recommended LOL
A crazy fact is that in the scene on the water planet everytime you hear one of those clicks its a whole day passing on earth😨
Let me tell ya-first time I watched this movie, that wave planet haunted me for *months*. I live on the west coast, about an hour from the beach, and know we’re overdue for a big earthquake. I kept getting nightmares that the earthquake hit and triggered a huge wave that swept the city. Ironically, it was learning about how tsunami’s actually work that helped me get over my nightmares. 😅
Justin was more invested in TARS than any other character in this movie 🤣
I don't now how you don't understand the motivation of Matt Demons character, he's not scared to die, he's trying to keep the people of Earth from destroying themselves, he's trying to keep hope alive, not himself
Its the realisation of age of a person from child to youngster to old which makes us cry 😢 the director knew it so perfectly ❤ old murph reminded us to young murph and young murph reminded us to little murph its the age gap which made us feel so phenomenal ❤
Great job you two... I can't ever get enough of Interstellar reactions. When I saw it myself for the first time on my own, that's what got me watching reactions in the FIRST place, because I virtually never cry to movies, BUT: During that 23-years-of-messages scene, [while being a bit preoccupied trying to eat a salad during!]...

@allthingsiyana Speaking of sad movies trumping other sad movies... a few nights ago I saw the [Korean version- there are SEVERAL versions apparently] of the movie "Miracle in Cell No. 7" --- THAT one triggered a very complex reaction from me. It's apparently a lot simpler for MOST people (basically, just sad, sad, sad)... but for me, that emotion of sadness and a certain other emotion were having the most epic battle in my head. It was actually REALLY uncomfortable to say the least, but it makes for an interesting story for whoever's already seen the movie lol. I'd give more details such as what that "certain other emotion" was... but I've become a big fan of "not spoiling" movies for others if they haven't seen them :P
There was no "rest of the crew" for the initial Laserus astronauts. Each one went to a seperate world alone. So Dr Mann (Matt Damon) was always alone on the ice planet.
not the malnourished comment regarding timmy IM DYING LAUGHING HERE lol
This is the greatest movie ever made to me. No film has ever moved me like this before, - or since. It's a masterpiece and if it ever comes back into the cinemas I will gladly pay to watch it again and again.
During the entire water planet scene, you hear a ticking every 1.25 seconds. Each tick marked the passing of one day on Earth.
There is no denying that Interstellar is a classic of its genre and a really strong movie, full of emotions. Your reaction was very good. I didn't even know you hadn't seen the movie. You should watch another of Nolan's films, in a similar vein to Interstellar (though perhaps not quite as emotional), with just as much intricacies of time - Tenet. Besides, I recommend, as usual, my favorite film for reaction - Alita: Battle Angel. I think You might like it.
"Justin...Justinuh...Justinhu". 🤣🤣🤣
The people speaking at the beginning were farmers referencing their experience in the Dust Bowl. An oft overlooked moment in U.S. history.
This is my favorite movie of all time. Now you guys understand why.
no way you cut the docking scene like that :( ... "its not possible, No its necessary" such a legendary scene
fun fact: when they land on the first planet, the metronome sound you hear while theyre on the planet is 1 year passing by on earth if im not mistaken; i'd have to double check but i remember reading about it when i first watched the movie
Love Christopher Nolan movies so much. Can’t wait to see his next one, Oppenheimer, this summer. ❤
I think because the higher beings have access to infinite timelines, they happened upon this timeline in the 3rd dimension where humanity was going to die, and decided to help.
Incredible Movie! That "Years Of Messages" Scene is still an absolute heart-render almost a decade later -
Great reaction as always!
Haha…it sounds like the guy from Good Will Hunting…Matt Damon!
* nervous glances *
This is my inaugural video with your channel and I instantly became a fan and now follower. Thank you for your honesty response to this master class in story telling.
This movie is not just about black whole or worm whole , this story shows how love important in our lives 😭🤌🏻
9:07 "I want a hot dog". There's a line in the script that didn't make the final movie, you see Murph about to say it, but then it was cut, she asks "What's a hot dog?". Kinda wish they'd left it in, showing how dire the food situation is, and giving a little more detail that they haven't even had animal food in this world for years
So glad you guys liked it and understood it. Such an amazing film that is so future based but let us understand it and follow what it meant.
33:58 good instincts 👍🏼
This makes me contemplate leaving for for long stretches on the road for work. My two young daughters would see me go. Missing softball games and the daily hum drum of life with my family. I finally changed jobs, but we would never get that time back. I’ll never know how much I lost. Now trying to make up for lost time. The one thing you can never get back. This will forever haunt me.
This is one of my FAVORITE movies and I've never seen anyone react to it before. I loved this.
At the end. Cooper is an ancestor to all of Murphys grandchildren and so on
The best thing about this movie is, it has all kind of emotions. Every time you watch it, you'll have a different perspective. This movie is built with so much love and passion. Every time I watch it, I find a different meaning and perspective on my life. It will always be my favourite movie.
I’ll assume someone already posted that there was only one person for each mission to check out each planet to see which was habitable and then the movie covers the mission to check on each planet and collect the data that had been collected from each solo mission
When he is prepping to leaveand tells Murph "I'm coming back," the way she asks "When??!" tears me up. Oof. Man... Love this movie
"Yeah he's dead, he's totally decomposed... oh it's Matt Damon!" lol
YES YES YES ITS HERE MY FAVORITE MOVIE its the reason I got into astrophysics and composing because of this beautiful soundtrack
Sound in space is complex. Remember sound can travel through any matter - if you hit on a wall made (in this example let's image it's a totally solid metal) then someone on the other side will hear you, because the wall is vibrating the air. You don't even need the air, e.g. during cowboy times in the US if you wanted to cross a rail bridge you could put your ear to the track - you can hear trains that are miles away because they're sending sound through the track, and it's actually going straight into cochlear etc without ever going through air.
Similarly if two ships collide in space of course it'll make a sound to both in each ship. And if a ship explodes nearby it's going to pelt you with debris that you will hear.
Also radio works in space of course.
I think that the movies answer to your question about the time paradox would be "murphy's law" Anything that can happen will happen, and since the longshot of cooper and his daughter working across time through gravity is possible it enables the future where humanity gains control of gravity through the quantum data getting transmitted, which enables the people in the future to reach back in time and make it all happen. Short term that equation let them create a gravity propulsion engine or something and long term who knows what you could accomplish with that. That's my guess anyways murphy's law is mentioned at the beginning and never really revisited, just kinda drops that (not so) subtle hint. I looked it up to make sure I wasn't being dumb and this guy said it better "I think the significance of Murph's name is a signpost to "them" being humans. Because there's no like multiple time streams or anything, there's no alternate universe, it's just that that happens, end of. Murph finds the watch, she figures it out, it can happen, so it will happen. Murphy's law makes it so."
Such a good film, was a treat to see you all finally see it
Christopher Nolan is brilliant. Bring in Hans Zimmer for the music. Ann Hathaway Matthew McConaughey Jessica Chastain Michael Cane Matt Damon. I mean. Cmon. Formula for brilliance on all levels
Interstellar is one of the few scifi films/TV that actually seriously deal with the time interpolation of space travel. The other being GunBuster, which we watched with you years ago 😘
