[@nostalgiaplex]

A movie about a father's promise to her daughter, which transcends beyond space and time. My all-time favorite movie.

[@bigdream_dreambig]

It's funny. The first time I saw this movie, it didn't resonate much. I thought it was too cerebral and not -- sentimental? -- enough for my tastes. But something has changed over the years, and now it's definitely in my Top 10 -- maybe even at the top of those 10.

To clarify, Cooper isn't going to save Brand per se. He's going to make a life with her and execute plan B.

[@michaelmerriweather5733]

He isn't going to execute plan B. Plan A has worked and all of humanity is on its way to Brand's planet. But, Brand does not know this because she has no communications with Earth after the destruction of the Endurance. As far as Brand knows Plan A failed and everyone on Earth died. Cooper is going ahead to let Brand know that both he and the population of Earth have survived.

[@Mikeyw9119]

Why would they need to execute plan B? They got people off of earth and are all heading to the new planet together. He’s going ahead of them to either get brand and bring her back to one of the stations or just stay with her and wait for the rest of the population to get there. Cause she’s out of fuel and was barely able to get there, and is also under the impression that they failed completely and that she’s the only person left alive

[@brodericksiz625]

I predicted it as soon as they had the first handshake during the wormhole scene. To be fair, my brain has been trained to spot this kind of stuff by reading hundreds of sci-fi novels, especially old ones, as a teenager. Sci-fi isn't just about spacecraft and aliens, if you dig into some of the more obscure sides of sci-fi you can find some absolutely wild plots with batshit insane (but still mostly internally coherent) world building. Some sub-genres of sci-fi are the wild west, having the revelation of "the aliens helping us were actually humans from the future" is nothing compared with "the aliens we were fighting turned out to be experiencing time backwards, and when we rounded them all up to nuke them we actually caused their birth as a species, because their end from our perspective was their beginning from theirs" which is an actual plot twist I read in an actual old novel (it was never translated in English, so I'm not too worried about spoiling it)

[@hhouseofballoonss]

@@brodericksiz625 wow. could you please tell me where this is from?

[@Alvan81]

Brand's Father didn't truly betray her, he got her a seat on the last lifeboat off the Titanic, complete with a New-Earth Starter Kit. That's the best he could do. It's also a Father/Daughter love story.

[@NemeanLion-]

As to your question about the ending with Murphy’s children, Nolan deliberately created an ambiguous ending. One theory is Cooper might have actually died falling into the black hole. The Mann theory about seeing your children before you die, may have been prophetic. The fact that Cooper survives falling into the back hole, arrives in a tesseract, changes earths fate, gets saved with only minutes left and meets his daughter, surrounded by a mysterious, almost dreamlike family that doesn’t interact, implies that it may be his last vision before his own passing. I don’t agree with the theory for one reason. Cooper reaches out for Brand in the wormhole, on his way back to Saturn. If he didn’t survive the black hole, he wouldn’t have been there to reach out to her in the first place. Just my opinion.

[@Lord6]

I agree with this

[@jsbrads1]

Also when dying and seeing your children, why have the moment of him jumping in a ship to meet Brand, that’s an active and life affirming action, not a fade to black.

[@JosephHuntelvisnspiders]

Another way to read it is 'they' are the descendants from Brand's colony. Cooper goes back with TARS (who still has the data from the black hole). They evolve into a far more advanced human than those on earth.

[@abc123tiktok]

@@jsbrads1 I agree that would seem like really pointless extra scenes if he was already dead and rather the last goodbye going off on another adventure.

[@wolfwing1]

yeah, he survives the entry into the black hole becasue a black hole of that size has in theory a event horizon bigger then it's spagettifcation range and if fell along the edge of it could survive for a while.

[@ThisIsMyFullName]

1:07:09 They didn't believe Murphy, they just thought she came up with the solution herself, and probably tried to turn her dad into a hero by coming up with a nice story. Remember, it was a secret NASA mission, not an official mission known to the whole world. Not even Murphy's brother knew what she was really working on. Also, simply believing a man in his thirties is actually your grandmothers 124 year old farther, is a strange situation to be in lol

[@reactswithjax]

That makes a lot more sense. Thanks for sharing your insights!

[@nicolasfernandez3731]

Nha bro, the doctor knew who Cooper was. Also the dude who took him to cooper's house. Even the nurse said Mr. Coop Everyone knows who he is. But it's just that they won't spend time of the movie on that, it's the end and it's all about Murphy and Cooper

[@ThisIsMyFullName]

​@@nicolasfernandez3731 Murphy says "They thought I was doing it all by myself" 56:44 which is only logical, because who would really believe in someone saying "my dad spoke to me from my bookshelf, and that lead me to the solution of how to harness gravity". The Doctor knew who Cooper was because Murphy told everyone. When they walk to the house you can hear Murphy saying "Well, my dad was a farmer. Um, like everyone else back then. Of course, he didn't start that way..." 55:55 It's not Coopers house, it's a recreation of Murphy's house, meant to teach kids about how Cooper Station was made. It's basically a museum, with a paved trail leading up to it. Remember, Cooper left over 90 years ago, so his past is now a part of history and Murphy is probably seen as a celebrity similar to Einstein. Everyone only knows who Cooper is, because Cooper is Murphy's dad. However, having been found floating around in space on his own has probably turned Cooper into a celebrity now lol

[@nicolasfernandez3731]

@@ThisIsMyFullName yeah now that you put it like that, it might be so. Maybe nobody believed her, but NOW that Coop is alive and can explain, they don't have any choice

I was wondering that myself. Just watched it for the first time with my daughter a couple days ago. We both cried.

[@datoxgaming]

The fact, that an open mind gets to play with so many possibilties, is what made science fiction my favorite genre in literature when I was a kid. That was about half a century ago. It is still my favorite genre today, but in all the entertainment media forms. It is always a pleasure to see that open mindness in others too.

[@Yora21]

Anne Hathaway got the role because when they were filming The Dark Knight Rises, Nolan was telling everyone about that exciting new idea he had for his next movie, and she was the only one who wasn't completely confused by what he was talking about.

[@williamwalsh3779]

Fun fact: The robot Kipp was named after theoretical physicist Kip Thorne who was the science consultant on the film. That's why the science in the movie was so realistic

Note the chord played when Murph discovers the message behind "STAY". It signifies Coop and Murph's connection with each other (their love/graviry bond). Fun fact: it's the same chord played when Coop realises he needs to go to Brand. They also have the same love/gravity bond. Which is why he was able to have that "first handshake" with her.

[@geewunder1171]

Interstellar and Inception are on a completely different level than just about everything. They're so cerebral and intellectually honest and compelling. It's a real trick to make content this heady and conceptual into something so stimulating, so relatable and sharply written. Nolan is a freaking genius filmmaker.

[@cmerced55]

I’ve watched this movie like over 20+ times cause I always find new little details that make the story even better than it already is.

Black holes are by far my favorite thing in existence to talk about. They are far more strange and interesting than they could portray in the movie. Absolute extremes of nature with properties that warp the way we see the universe (literally). They used mountains of scientific data to digitally construct the black hole Gargantua in the movie, giving us the most realistic simulation of what the area around a black hole would look like to the naked eye. Not long after this movie released, we got our first REAL picture of a black hole and it was basically a 1-for-1 comparison. It's so satisfying to know that the science we understand exactly lines up with the objective reality.

at the end, for an unexplained reason, the earth-stations like cooper station have not yet jumped through the wormhole into the new galaxy. They're orbiting saturn. I assume they're planning on going through eventually and colonizing edmund's planet, but they haven't done it yet. Cooper leaves to go meet up with Brand early.

[@reactswithjax]

Oooh, for some reason I assumed they had gone through the wormhole!

[@amalielk]

@@reactswithjax There might be issues bringing a whole station through. Also, they weren't receiving signals through the wormhole, so they wouldn't have known that there was a livable planet on the other side until Cooper returned. All they knew, at that point, is that several people had gone through the wormhole and never returned. I always figured that with Cooper's return and confirmation of a livable planet, they would start planning to relocate everyone to the new planet (which would probably take years and years). Cooper simply went ahead of them to help Brand start a colony and prepare their new home for the arrival of the rest

[@glennwelsh9784]

Yeah, they probably need real confirmation that Edmunds' planet is actually habitable. Only Dr. Brand really knows at that point. So Cooper is going there to meet up with her to get the confirmation so the migration to Edmunds' planet can begin. Brand also doesn't know that Cooper was able to successfully obtain the necessary quantum data and relay it back to Earth. So she's set up camp and is putting Plan B into effect.

Fun fact: Christopher Nolan planted 500 acres of corn just for the film because he did not want to CGI the corn in during scenes moving through the fields. After filming, he sold the corn and made back profit for the budget.

[@Revocated]

Actually that corn field was given to him by Zack Snyder which he used in Man of Steel.

[@jamespfp]

And *that* is what separates the poseurs from actual Production Value.

[@denver989]

Not just that. He consulted agriculture experts and picked a location to film that is farther north in Canada than corn can be grown as a viable crop, because he wanted the corn to look distressed.

This movie is in my top 10 all time and have seen countless times.. But I have never heard/noticed KIPP(the other robot)say "Please, don't make me..". It gave me chills honestly. I googled it and it's possible KIPP is saying "please, don't make me go outside", but I think KIPP has actually been rigged to explode by Dr. Mann to maybe protect his secrets, and KIPP doesn't want to harm a human, but KIPP can't help it. "Please, don't make me".

Btw. That "stupid poem" is actually quite a powerful piece of writing. I listen to it myself from time to time. It laments the fact that even a powerful influential man will die. It ties into my own life and honestly helps me cry sometimes when I need a good cry. It was written about the authors father dying. "Rage against the dying of the light. Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears." I don't know if a single piece of literature that could ever come closer to describing how my father died on a cold muddy hillside in the middle of nowhere with me unsuccessfully doing CPR for almost an hour until paramedics could get to us. Not that it's important but I would consider my old man as one of the most powerful and influential men I've ever known. Before I was born he was a founding member of a motorcycle club (yes the famous one you're thinking of) and had moved literal tons of drugs across borders for people. Maybe his choices weren't the best but it at least brings me peace that people who do incredible things with their lives will still die on a random muddy hilltop just enjoying their 4wd vehicle.

I use to know Morse Code when I was a young man practicing to take my FCC Class C license (which allowed modifications and repair of High-end Radio equipment), but I never took the test since I gained admission as a Cadet in the U.S. Air Force Academy. After leaving the Air Force service i became heavily involved in computer technology, first as a technician, then a programmer, and finally an Information Security consultant (when I was in the Air Force, they did not offer the same opportunities to Officers as a civilian profession offered. I eventually became Certified as a Computer Security Systems Profession (CISSP) and a licensed Professional Engineer in Computer Engineering. That led to my becoming an expert in Binary, Octal, and Hexadecimal, which are at the heart of all computer hardware and software.

My alltime fav movie , watched in the mobile , later watched the re released version and now gonna watch again when it re releases on its 10 year anniversary. And yeah I WILL CRY AGAIN

His reaction was beautiful! Great acting during that scene!

The people in the beginning of the movie are real interviews from people who lived through the Dust Bowl in the early 1900s. Nolan said it’s added to the authenticity of the situation they were in.

I've easily watched this film 50+ times. It never gets old.

The cool thing is that when you look at everything that TARS says and jokes about, he gives it away that he didn't have to do anything if he didn't want to. And because he did some things and he and CASE kept it a secret, they saved the mission.

[@TheCarterKent]

In an interview with Matt Damon (Who was in "Interstellar" and "The Martian")...he had serious doubts about following one "desperate marooned astronaut" role with ANOTHER "desperate marooned astronaut" role....but he was great in both of them.

[@kuttykutty4795]

The data to solve gravity equation is right there in Murph's bedroom all these years right after when Cooper left home. Even when the adult murph took the watch from the box, she looks at it, smiles at itz (coz her dad gave) thinks that the second hand is twitching due to damage coz she had thrown it out of anger when her dad left. But after recreating the incidents that happened in her childhood, after realising it was her dad who communicates through gravity, then she looks at the watch to only understand that the second hand is not twitching exactly it's just moving coz of gravity.❤ Once the movie ended, I felt like as if I've woken up from a good sleep or after a deep meditation. Once in a lifetime experience this movie is

[@GarrettHD]

Omg no way your doing Interstellar 😭😭 “….No, it’s necessary.” Is the coldest one liner from McConaughey You got to experience Hans Zimmer again to! Legend.

[@reactswithjax]

I'm so glad you enjoyed this!!! The score was incredible. ❤

[@teish]

I love the fact you caught on love being the powerful force driving this story. Some people knock on it for the force not being something more scientific but honestly, I think it's wonderful. Besides, there's an plenty of other scientific principles/concepts being utilised throughout the movie. It's my favourite Nolan movie.

[@jimhowe2624]

One of these days I'm gonna take a ferry from Ireland to France and drive down to Vienna to see Hanz Zimmer live! His music is just TOO good!

[@MattKeller]

This movie was scheduled for re-release in IMAX in late September but it looks like it's been delayed or cancelled. If it does come back to theaters I highly recommend seeing it on the largest screen possible, it was an incredible experience!

[@carlchiles1047]

For some rediculous reason..I love the tidbits here and there that you find amusing…like Cooper’s…No, it’s necessary..your eyes did that little,crinkly thing…which surprised me..but…anyway…yeah..that was somehow adorable…don’t quite know how to put that sequence into words…but at that moment…it worked..

[@Professor_Wisteria_]

the first time i watched this movie i was only 8 or 9, i didn't fully understand everything going on in it. the second time, though, was when i was 16 and my mom had recently gotten super sick and couldn't move much around the house so we sat down on the couch and watched it together. it was then that i truly understood the depth and emotion of this movie, crying on the couch with my mom absolute masterpiece in my eyes

[@MsWillowbayOrelse]

Excellent reaction! Btw @ 18:20 your flinch, that was so genuine! Honestly, your sense of wonder during this film, and your shock when you realized that he was the one behind the bookshelf, so to speak, wonderful. So entertaining. Btw, I also thought it was kind of unrealistic that his grand kids, great grandkids...etc, werent absolutely floored that Cooper came back, not sure why they made that writing choice. Either way, this is my second favourite Nolan movie after Inception - cant wait to see that one. Again, thank you for another fantastic reaction!

[@Tavo-Tron]

This movie is an absolute 𝗠𝗔𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗣𝗜𝗘𝗖𝗘, my all-time favorite! I had the privilege of watching it in the theater, and let me tell you, it was a mind blowing experience. The visuals, the score, everything about it was pure cinematic magic. I heard they might bring it back to theaters for its 10 year anniversary, and if that happens, I’ll be there without a doubt! It’s not just a movie; it’s a cinematographic treasure by Christopher Nolan, who in my opinion is the best Movie Director of this era. If you get the chance to see it on the big screen, don’t miss it!

[@CanadaDan]

Not only it was a fantastic reaction but your predictions were pretty spot on. I enjoyed this reaction a lot.

Each frame of those images of the black hole took 100 hours and was so accurate scientists have published papers on it. I figure some people leaving comments covered all the rim references in the movie. I really like your reactions! Very thoughtful and insightful.. great job thanks!

Interesting fact : During this fall , Interstellar will be re-runed in IMAX cinemas .. now it is in Prague , CinemaCity IMAX , until 29th September . Of course .. all great seats are gone :D you have to be really quick .

[@b1oodm1lksky]

Great reaction! I like that, ultimately, this film is about the triumph of family and connection over cold science and rationality. All of the lack of attachment and disconnection from others harmed the mission in the end, and it was only Cooper's love and attachment to his daughter that solved everything. People make fun of this film for "love solving everything", but really it's just that Cooper was able to save everybody BECAUSE of the love he had for his family that drove him to push through where others (like Dr Mann) gave up. Who in their right mind would willingly go into a black hole? Someone who was trying every option possible to get back to his family, and the bulk beings use that to their advantage. Also, because Murph loved Cooper and her family so much, she returned to the house to help Tom and his kids and found the watch from Cooper, creating the bridge that was needed. I think Brand's speech about love confuses people because she's sort of meta about it, so they start to think about it being an actual measurable force like gravity is, but really it's just that attachment to people is actually a GOOD thing and something to be desired.

[@bigdream_dreambig]

35:54 "A 'gentle' black hole?!?" Actually, yes. I don't remember if they said it in the uncut film, but essentially it's a black hole that doesn't force you to undergo the aptly named "spaghettification" 🍝 on entry. Thus gentle!

[@Kevin.Costner.]

Hans Zimmer once again cooked🐐🐐🐐 he just competes with himself and group

[@jonasfermefors]

I can't say with any high degree of confidence that space travel would be like sailing, but for a long sea voyage you usually acclimatize after a couple of days so you only need medication for a short time. I've tried 21 days at sea and after 36 hours I was OK. I did get one little spell of sea sickness after spending a couple of hours in the galley over a hot stove during a particularly rough weather day.

[@robertfalcon6083]

You are insanely intelligent. I worked a good chunk of my career in space intelligence and think I’m decently smart but every reaction you pick up on all the details early and see how things are connected. That’s not book smart or something you can learn. You have a gift for analytic analysis and concept fusion! Great job!

[@Thevikingninja117]

One of my favorite movies of all time. Fun fact: the black hole they created in the film was before we really saw one from the pictures we where able to start taking and really they’re not technically pictures. So they go very close and damn near spot on with a black hole design before knowing what it actually looked like. Also how absolutely fire is that line “no it’s necessary”?

[@reactswithjax]

That's impressive that they created the black whole visuals before we had ever seen a black hole! The visuals looked incredible.

[@NHNuisance]

OMG how did you figure out so much of what's going on in the movie in real-time?! It amazing that you figured out that it's the astronaut crew themselves communicating from the future. You're a genius! When Interstellar originally came out I think critics rated the movie lower than it deserves purely due to the fact that they couldn't understand what was going on, even after finishing watching it!

[@sapphonymph8204]

So happy I found your channel.

[@reactswithjax]

Thank you so much!! That means so much! ❤

[@CosmicCyberYT]

Jonathan Nolan (Chris Nolan's brother) wrote the script where this movie ends when Cooper goes into the black hole to die. Chris saw the ending and said it will be too bleak of an ending (although realistic), and added the new ending you see with tesseract and Cooper surviving, meeting his daughter, and going to meet Brand on Edmund's planet (and possibly live as a couple).

[@jamezguard]

Damn, your eyes are like hypnotic when you cry. You must win every argument. Amazing reaction as always! I laughed, I cried.

[@TheLegendOfRandy]

My younger cousin _adored_ this film, which I get because it's a great movie, but she was so annoyed when I sent her a text at the beginning of the movie while watching saying, "Her dad is the 'ghost,' right?" lol I didn't know how or why, but I wasn't surprised. Still a fantastic film.

[@crouchingdonny]

14:15 "I really did not want to cry in this movie".. oh boy

[@reactswithjax]

[@demoneyeslaharl]

That poem was also what gave Murph the will to carry on. It's a call to keep fighting for your beliefs. Murph also didn't go gently into that good night. Not until she succeeded saving what was left of Earth and to meet her dad.

[@blakewalker84120]

19 minutes in and you're constantly expecting this movie to turn into a horror movie with monsters and man-eating aliens and such. Hollywood has ruined you. Yeah, many sci-fi movies have trained us to fear the unknown. Luckily, courageous men and women face those fears and venture into the unknown anyway. So far, the history of space travel hasn't revealed any man-eating aliens. Not even any butt-probing crop-circling aliens. Yet. Just space. Space is dangerous enough. This movie shows you some reasons why.

[@josephbishop3590]

Thanks Jax!! Adore your reactions, absolutely LOVE your smile and can't get enough of your laugh❤. You're also correct in the awareness that solitude and loneliness are two sides of the same coin. Solitude can be a choice but loneliness is a consequence. But loneliness doesn't have to be a life sentence. You're such a lovely woman it breaks my heart💔 to think of you ever feeling lonely😢,

[@johngravett4638]

Here’s something to mess with mind a bit that is a theory as to why there was no intersection between Cooper and his extended family: Some theories about the ending of "Interstellar" suggest that Cooper's encounter with his elderly daughter, Murph, on Cooper Station may not be a physical one. The tesseract, a fifth-dimensional construct, allows Cooper to interact with time as a physical dimension, but he cannot travel back in time physically. This interpretation suggests that Cooper's presence is more symbolic or spiritual, explaining why his grandchildren and great-grandchildren do not interact with him, as he might not be perceived as physically present in their reality. 🤷🏻‍♂

[@clarkbarrett6274]

It's not a very good theory. He's still acting on the world around him. He needs to see Murphy one last time to fulfill his promise. Then he goes to Brand to start a new relationship before the stations arrive with the remainder of Earths population.

[@joshuapj]

I love how wholesome and honest your reactions are. pls keep the train chuggin!

[@jasonbrown-gq1qe]

There was a reason Murphy Cooper’s children and grandchildren had no reaction to seeing Cooper. It was because Cooper died and the final scenes were a fantasy. Much like “An occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge.”

[@afrancis1582]

That’s the only explanation that makes sense to me. The final scene was his dying moments ‘seeing his children’, as Dr Mann said. The mind creating its own happy ending.
