Docking scene from Interstellar
I doubt it will be illustrative on Youtube just how amazing I found this scene on IMAX, but it's up so why not. If you've got decent speakers turn 'em up.
but why did they leave earth if they can create artificial atmospheres and weather systems for growing crops?

they made crops growable on a space station where the kids play baseball - or, lol, should that be spaceball?
if they can make the leap of creating an atmosphere and fertile soil in the vaccuum of space, doing it on earth should be a piece of piss

Oh yeah... the ending -.- Fake grass? Or perhaps the energy involved would yield the process only beneficial to the population of a space station, than say an entire planet?
But yeah, I'll admit to that entire sequence being a massive let down. Almost ruinous I'll grant you. I loved so much of the the rest of it, the bit just before in particular. Well, mainly on a technical level, but still emerged wide eyed from the cinema.

Runaway climate change on earth that would make our atmosphere more like Venus' would probably be impossible to reverse
making a breathable atmosphere on a space station would be easier I guess

If they can get that big a budget, casting someone better than Mcconaughey should have been a piece of piss.

or a scriptwriter who could remember how many kids the lead character had

Because the studio thought the original screenplay, which had the working title "Future Proofing Agriculture" was a no hoper.

Loved this scene
By far the most intense and best edited scene I saw last year

I found the parallels with 2001 very apposite
ie, a great sf film with a fucking stupid ending.

Yeah
The ending was such a let down. I appreciate the commercial prospects of a film without a Spielbergian resolution aren't exactly strong, but it could have been a brilliant film if he'd maybe invited in a bit more ambiguity/less clunky optimism.
Technically speaking the entire film blew me away though.

I was fine with the bookcase bit
But everything after that on the space station and the stealing a spaceship should have been binned.
Nolan knows how to end a film properly - Inception showed that. Its just a shame that for his last two big ones (this and TDKR) he hasn't had the restraint to know when the film is over.

Yeah, guess it's Heaven's Gate syndrome
Both The Dark Knight and Inception were very disciplined affairs, editorially speaking. Success has a funny of making artists lose that creative conservatism.

This film bored me,
so I never got to the ending to be disappointed by it.

I always watch any film to the end. I can usually gain some pleasure from the photography even if the story sucks.
This didn't stop me being underwhelmed by this film unfortunately.

You walked out?
Really, you're the first person I've heard of to do that.

It seems I'm in a minority here
In that I walked out of this film having completely loved it from start to finish, and wanting to go straight back in and watch it all over again.
I too saw it on an IMAX screen though. I wonder if that's the difference.

I acknowledge its flaws. Particularly the ending. But I was still bowled over by it.
I too saw it on IMAX. Mesmerising filmic experience.
