I see. The way I see it, it's good that people are gushing, but I'm trying to keep expectations in check at the same time. I don't expect an instant classic with any movie, just hope that it'll be an incredible experience and take it from there.

I'm not too worried on exposition dump, unless Christopher radically changed his brother's script. Jonah is definitely more of a show rather than tell kind of writer.

None of the trailers released have had Zimmer's music, I believe.

I don't see how those are dumb concepts...

What is dumb about a dream state based movie, how is memento dumb or the prestige or insomnia or inception v
That's not what she was saying. She was saying that, unlike Inception, Interstellar has some concepts that aren't inherently dumb.
I disagree. I don't think exploring the dreamscape is inherently dumb. Some of my favorite media (Psychonauts, Alice: Madness Returns) comes from exploring the dreamscape. But that's beside the point.

Turns out quite a bit.
Don't get hung up on the word dumb, I'm just saying Interstellar has a chance to differentiate itself from Nolans filmography because the subject matter is just a few degrees less silly. The Prestige is an incredibly silly movie as well. Although I adore it.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the concept of dreams within dreams and performing actions which affect each state and the slowdown of time as well as the main concept of planting and stealing ideas within each state. It might have been a concept In Scifi but this is not a book this Is a 2 hr movie

I don't think there is anything wrong with it either. I'm saying its kinda silly and probably not something that would belong in the pantheon of all time greatest human expression.
However, a movie about finding a new planet because ours is dying is.. getting closer. We actually fly in space. We have actually viewed different worlds from the surface with our own eyes. With how real the effects of climate change are becoming its something that hits a lot closer to home than dualing magicians or dream invaders.

Everybody get on board the Nolan hype train

But...I still don't get it. The point of Inception wasn't about dreams within dreams. It's like calling 2001 dumb because it involved an alien rock that caused creatures to evolve. Yeah, if you're going to simplify it to one aspect of it, then yeah it'll sound dumb

so im guessing the movie ends with him either never seeing his kids again, or by the time he does theyre old as hell and he's still fairly young.

Thank you!
It's a pity the music presumably won't be in the movie. I still remember how outstanding the music for one of the Man of Steel trailers was, and fit perfectly with the trailer. However, of course it wasn't actually in the movie, and was from a relatively random movie's soundtrack (Elizabeth: The Golden Age).

Is this one of Nolan's practical effects, DMczaf? My guess is miniature models in an olympic sized swimming pool.
I don't remember many melodramatic lines in Memento and Prestige, Batman and on I agree with though. The fact his brother has a writing credit on this one gives me hope. But yeah, Nolan has had a big problem with dialogue for a while now, and he's also never proven himself to be able to draw up much emotion.
Nolan is also incredibly weak when it comes to combat scenes despite being known for big blockbusters. So many forgettable fight scenes in the Batman movies. I've seen Inception multiple times now, and the snow mobile action scene may be one of if not the worst he's filmed.
Luckily the dude does jaw dropping set pieces right, so I'm still really excited for this. And despite his flaws I do like all his movies, and even love some of them.

I had a question about that before, but the revealed plot answers those questions for me.
What is with that whole "this is a ____ joint" when it comes to filmmakers? I refuse to adopt that term.
Is this a Hans Zimmer joint?

$500 the ending will be ambiguous.
Is any outside of Spike Lee actually using that term?
So what you're saying is, Inception will be a classic in 10 years.
Groovy thing is that 2001 Space Odyssey and Blade Runner both underperfomed in the box office and were hated before becoming cult classics.

Damn. The only theater here showing it in 70mm IMAX is the IMAX Dome at the science museum. Not a huge fan of the dome theaters.
Are you in San Jose? I'm going to the Dublin theatre

No, Tampa.
We used to have a fantastic full-sized 70mm IMAX downtown but the little shopping complex it was a part of went bankrupt and shut down. Now we just have 1 liemax and 1 dome theater.
Lol I kinda wish that was still true.

I believe that's definitely the case. Apparently the Earth stuff is only the first 20-30 minutes. The movie itself is about 3 hours long so there will be plenty of space.
Me too.
It's going to be tough but I'm hanging in there.
Hnnng.
*bites finger nails*
Maybe we should start a support group?
Know anyone who has seen it yet?
I've made it this far, so I think I'll be good. I always watch trailers for highly anticipated movies, so this feels like a weird anomaly...Nolan, what have you done to me?
We'll make it, Busty!

Should be in OP.
Not personally but the early word is positive. A friend heard from people that have seen it that it's potentially going to be Nolan's most
divisive
Either way I'm ready.
The entire album (Sun) is incredible and, who is this guy? looks like he only does trailer music, aka hype music and perfect at that. He should get more work.
