Interstellar trailer

[RoJoHen]

I need a trailer with more Anne Hathaway in it.

 

[Amaris]

Ooh, I definitely want to see this! I mean, Christopher Nolan directing, and Kip Thorne as science advisor? Yes, please!

While the nature of the disaster that causes them to head into the wormhole sounds like it might be a little implausable, everything else looks great. I've really enjoyed almost everything else Nolan has done, so I'm really looking forward to this.
Do we know how much time this covers? At one point I saw an actress who looked like she could have been an adult version of the girl.

That's Jessica Chastain. It looks like his mission is never heard from and his daughter goes into space when she grows up.

It sounds to me like the disaster they're postulating is just climate change screwing up agriculture. Which hardly sounds implausible.

I am waiting for the porn parody 'Enter Stella'.

I am not excited about this to be honest. I am sure it will be great with everyone involved.

ETA: I was far more interested in the movie before the trailer which didn't work for me as much as the "teaser".

The original Interstella.

But that wormhole made me very, very happy. Clearly this is where Kip Thorne's input came into play. Finally, we get to see a movie that portrays a wormhole properly, as a spherical warp in space (a 3D entry to a 4D passage) that you could see through to the other side, rather than some kind of funnel of swirly light.

Here are similar examples

I've always wanted to see Visser's cubic wormholes:

"Wormholes, baby universes, and causality", Phys. Rev. D, 41, No. 4, 1116–1124 (1990).

Wow, that website looks like it's from the 80s.

I like that era's take on things. The art by David Egge (IIRC) of the interior of a Dyson megasphere is to die for.

I like my space retro http://space1970.blogspot.com/

His comment was more about the crappy weblayout.

 

[HaplessCrewman]

Well, this looks pretty good.

It looks like a science fiction movie with a script, and characters, and some thought behind it. It might actually evoke some human feelings in some people watching it.

It also doesn't happen to be the upteenth installment in some skiffy adventure franchise or a movie based on comic book characters who like to knock each other into big collapsing structures of one kind or another.

It's hard to imagine how a major studio let this one slip through.

Maybe some day we will get a 'Star Trek' film which can evoke such optimism.

If 'Interstellar' is a huge box office hit, maybe Paramount will consider 're-imagining' 'Star Trek' out of its current summer blockbuster mode.

Maybe someday. We can only hope.

Well, they already borrowed the corridor turning scene from Inception in Into Darkness...

Why would they go backward? There's no chance that "Interstellar" will be that big a hit.

It's not important that old things be rejiggered to please a minority of folks when new things, like "Interstellar," can fill that narrative and entertainment niche.

 

[BigJake]

... forward, not backward. Upward, not forward. And always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom.

 

[RAMA]

Another interesting note..the Interstellar Movie trailer got applause before the Godzilla movie!! I was shocked, that hardly ever happens.

Besides the last time a Star Trek tried to do something like that it was kind of pretentious and boring.

 

[Christopher]

Anyway, Star Trek movies have been in "summer blockbuster mode" since 1982. Even ones that tried to be more thoughtful like Insurrection still had gratuitous space battles and shootouts tacked on. The only differences now are that a) blockbusters have gotten bigger and b) Paramount is now treating Trek movies as tentpole blockbusters instead of mid-budget ones.

I didn't find the trailer to be particularly exciting, but it's a Nolan film so I'm going to see it no matter what.
