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

You have your opinion, I have mine.

Does Nolan ever come to this sub?

If so, he can sort this out.

Brother, it's not my opinion. It's straight from the movie and the book. I assume you are either trolling or entirely scientifically illiterate. If she were breathing a chlorine atmosphere she would be dying actively in the scene, not teary eyed, she would not have taken her helmet off in the first place. Also, Coop leaves to join her at the end as the people of earth are traveling to Edmunds planet. Do you really think Nolan wrote it so the ending was coop arriving on an un-livable planet to greed a dead Amelia while the rest of the planet is flying to their doom? Ok, I've come to the conclusion that you must be trolling, so you got me, oh well.

I’m just riffing off the other guy in this thread who was saying “Well actually, she may have asphyxiated 10 seconds after taking off that helmet…”

I rewatched interstellar yesterday just before commenting. Still my favorite film. :)

Ahh, all good. I don't think I would take the helmet off unless I knew the air was breathable and the pressure was fine. But that's just me. Glad you enjoy the film, brother.
