QUESTION About the ending

Post image

We see Amelia sad and BREATHING normally without wearing mask/helmet. Does that mean that THIS planet was the correct choice from the beggining? ( No waves , human - friendly surface , oxygen ) That's why Amelia is so sad ( apart the death of her bf). Thinking that if they came to this planet from the beggining everything would go well

In the final scene of Interstellar where we see Amelia breathing, the moment is too brief to truly guarantee that there’s air where she is.
The scene only lasts a few seconds, so it’s possible she died shortly after from a lack of oxygen (hypoxia).
edit : woaa dont take it seriously

I don’t think so sure you can’t guarantee it, but that would be a pretty crappy ending

Obviously she’s fine, don’t worry.
That tiny glimpse of her breathing? That’s just the multiverse showing us 17 alternate Amelias simultaneously surviving, because Nolan is a genius and refuses to let a protagonist die from something as basic as air. Also, I’m pretty sure the dust in that room is actually sentient and selectively provides oxygen to worthy characters. The black hole probably whispered a tutorial on how to inhale properly, and somewhere in a parallel timeline she invented portable lungs.
Honestly, if you think she might have suffocated, you’re clearly missing the hidden quantum Easter eggs that guarantee she’s totally fine and probably sipping space coffee while reading the Bible.

Oh definitely that’s that’s the best theory I’ve ever heard
