This is a link post 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.

This is a normal post but why did they leave earth if they can create artificial atmospheres and weather systems for growing crops?

This is a normal post Eh?
When did they do that?

This is a normal post 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

This is a normal post 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.

This is a normal post 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

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

This is a normal post or a scriptwriter who could remember how many kids the lead character had

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

This is a normal post Loved this scene
By far the most intense and best edited scene I saw last year

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

This is a normal post 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.

This is a normal post 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.

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

This is a normal post 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.

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

This is a normal post yeah....
'walked' out...

From the cinema.

As thats where I was.

This is a normal post 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.

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