        We know they play Doom, and someone has likely played the Bad Apple video on one too, as is customary on all things with displays, so I guess they can play Interstellar too.

          We need someone to figure out the minimal number of bits which need to be flipped to change an Interstellar rip into Doom gameplay footage.

    How dare you use subtitles? Nolan intended for the dialogue to be so badly recorded and mixed that you can’t understand a damn thing. Those godawful fight scenes and terrible choreography? It was meant to be there! Those shitty mistakes and errors left on the screen add flavour!

      I was a movie theatre projectionist when that movie came out.

      It was miserable - people complained about the mixing, and it also blew out our speakers in a couple of auditoriums.

      And the ending is such a weird stupid ass pull. It’s reminds me of Bioshock Infinite - physics is magic that we can to deus ex machina our way out of this half thought out plot.

        Anyone who says his Batman movies are perfect, need to go back and watch the fight choreography on screen and accept that the Batman voice is absurd. I mean tdk is a great movie, but it’s a comic book movie that’s ashamed of the source material and tries to make it “real” to compensate

          Interstellar gets worse and worse with age too. I’m sure this is tired ground, but the movie is fucking awful.

          It introduces some neat concepts that audiences have never been exposed to, which is why it was popular, but the plot itself was utter dogshit. Particularly when viewed from a scientific lens like Nolan seemed to want from the outset.

          Bro, I get you watched Contact at an impressionable age and now every great scifi should have some mix of heady science and human emotional experience, but “the only thing that can escape time and space is the human heart”? REALLY? You have actual scientists and mission commanders and the like having serious discussions in space reciting hallmark greeting card lines to each other with a straight face? This is even before touching on the utter nonsense around the black-hole that couldn’t figure out it’s own size, boundaries and rules.

    I watched Tenet on my phone in bed with breaks, because he thought it would be worth risking lives during the pandemic to force it to be shown in movie theaters.

      It uses a line in for the video. It seems like a real desperation mover (or just showing off) to have the cable uncomfortably dangling from your wrist to the tuner. Still a cool idea for the time, though.

        I highly agree. It’s as impressive as a proof of concept and achievement as it is functionally useless. It’s 100% Seiko flexing its capabilities at the time.

        My focus here, however, is that I believe it’s the worst way to watch Interstellar.

              Mailed pictures. Individually. Worse than a tiny moving picture, and nowhere near as convenient as a book.

                When one of my good friends lost his mother, to help distract him, I enlarged this soft porn imagine of a woman in pirate gear showing what she’s got. I blew it up to poster size or something, and then I printed it on a regular printer (along with a picture of a penis at approximately the right size and angle). I think that gave me 15ish individual pictures? I mixed them up and mailed him one per day, saving the goods for last, with the fakeout penis second to last.

                I think he had a good chuckle. It was still on his wall months later when I went to visit him.

        Interestingly, this is possible without anything else today. It works totally different today than it did at that time, but the end result is the same: video on your watch. I’m always amazed by how tech moves. As a kid, I wondered how nice it would be if I had a device on me that did everything and I could even turn the lights off with it. I’m actually able to do that today.
