Great movie even the 2nd time

I enjoyed it more the second time. Bang when Mann blew the airlock still startled me even though I knew it was coming.

THANK GOD YOU'RE HERE BC WE HAVE TO LEAVE TOMORROW

You are making the assumption that they are leaving tomorrow. Discovered NORAD at night, returned home during day (was it the next day? Maybe, but we don't know). MM speaks with his father on their porch at night about leaving (same day they return?), then leaves during daylight. We don't know how many days it has been.

EVERY movie could be nitpicked to death.

Remember back to when he first got there. They were all very suspicious and weary of him until he said some kind of singularity brought on by gravity had brought him to the facility. The NASA scientist believed that beings of an immensely superior origin, who could control gravity, had opened the wormhole and thus had brought Cooper to them. As the poster above states, he was "chosen" by beings of an extraterrestrial nature to pilot the mission

I get the "he was chosen by them" idea. But just because he was chosen by them then that means they have to leave immediately?

Sure he's familiar with the craft, but it isn't necessary for him to get familiar with the mission in general?

They weren't concerned with losing years/decades to accomplish this mission but a few days to train were too much. You've been working on this project for years and years, building the ship, crew, scientist, robots, etc... All of this with no idea of who would be the pilot. I guess you were just expecting "them" to bring somebody to fly it at some point.

I guess it bothers me bc It would have been really simple to add a scene or two to make it feasible.

Just saw it earlier today. Holy frick that was a good movie

I used to think Nolan could do no wrong, but I've been disappointed with his last two films.

The Dark Knight movies are pretty meh outside of the joker.

Yeah but the Joker alone makes that movie fricking awesome.

It's not really a plot hole though, more of something that you just didn't buy into and I understand that. It's not a perfect film by any means but I thought it was one of the most original and compelling space exploration movies

---

Well I don't even really consider the leaving too soon a plot hole, more of it was something pretty stupid there very easily could have been avoided. So it just got on my nerves. Well maybe that is a plot hole

The worst parts though we're the mistakes in the time loop.

It had its original moments, but it took a lot from Space Odyssey 2001.

I actually like the first one. But I like the story of how they become superheros more than what they do once they are one. Honestly I don't really like the genre much at all which is why I haven't seen many of the recent ones. I just feel like you know what you're going to get in each one which is fine if you enjoy it but I'm just never dying to see a new superheor movie.

Haven't seen it or smallville. It's honestly just not my thing

Saw it for the second time in IMAX. The entire sequence from the struggle on Mann's planet to the incredible docking scene, and the music.
