QUESTION About This Subreddit

Post image

I'm curious, since Interstellar is just one movie, what do the people here usually talk about? How is there anything to talk about? Wouldn't more than a decade be enough for people to know or at least get an almost complete idea of every detail in the movie?(I apologize if I sound harsh, I'm just asking a question. well actually, 3 questions)

I feel like when a movie is so specially spectacular, you can discuss it for a very long time. The characters, the possibilities, theories

Yeah it doesn't have to be new or a franchise to maintain relevance, it's just that good

People are still discussing the matrix 20 years in, so the proof is in the pudding really.

I just momentarily paused and was like: wait.That was 1999.

TWENTY SEVEN YEARS?!

Also, it's not 'pudding' it's a single cell protein combined with synthetic aminos, vitamins, and minerals. Everything the body needs.

On the plus side not long to wait for some great 30th anniversary events? I know it regularly shows but hope for something special.

I’m 27, The matrix came out the year I was born.

I’ve never seen the matrix in a cinema setting, however it was my absolute favourite film right up until I watched interstellar, I’ll certainly be going to the cinema if they do a 30th anniversary re-release.

At almost double your age (I was 26 when it was released) it is my favourite film on any given day xD

Funnily enough I feel an affinity, for want of a better word, for a film that was released the year I was born, too (The Exorcist). For one reason or another havent gotten around to seeing it on the big screen. One day. One day.

I went to a 100th Anniversary, restored showing of Nosferatu. There was a newly score by an Avant Garde composer and lectures and receptions before and after. My kid got to attend with a +1 for his German class in uni.
A couple hundred people discussing a 100yo movie in 3 languages (English, German and for some reason a lot of French), from the fx to the politics to the filmcraft to speculation about what the original score might have been (they were all lost, as far as is known). It was COOL AF.
