That was SWEET
Very intriguing.

It's the littlest things, but I really love how everything is different from things that Nolan usually did. Definitely slower pacing of this trailer, calming music, and even things like serif font everywhere and vertical position of title. I'm intrigued, amazing teaser.
it reminded me of those endings in Deus Ex: HR im very very hyped for this and cannot wait a whole year ok
Yes, according to the website the date for world premiere is 7th November. I think it's a good indicator of what Nolan is into. It's not a summer blockbuster like Dark Knight Trilogy, or Inception. I expect more drama than anything else, something in lines of The Prestige, or maybe Memento.

Summer is usually where the extreme action movies go. But the original script was pretty intense back when spielberg was gonna do it, with robots and an opening sequence that details a planet zooming out of control and smashing into smaller planets until finally slamming into a fucking blackhole and exploding. If the tone of this teaser is any indicator tho then maybe he toned it right the fuck down.
idk why, but the ending reminded me of that movie about a rocket on a farm lol here it is: [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0469263/[/url]
watching the trailer and it's absolutely nothing! i'll wait for another one to reserve judgment

This gave me chills, I also can't wait to hear more of that soundtrack.
What if Zimmer only ever uses Sine waves? Super retro wooweeewooweeee noises.
[url=http://www.hypable.com/2014/02/19/matthew-mcconaughey-interstellar/]According to Matthew McConaughey[/url] filming was finished early. Great news, to be honest for a moment there I forgot about this coming out in November.
Now, when the hell are they going to film Rendezvous with Rama? But yeah, very excited to see how this film turns out.

The Girl Who Played With Fire, Cleopatra, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and few others.
[img]http://i.imgur.com/8Slplt8.jpg?1[/img] Cinemacon interview happened today. Here's what's been revealed so far: [url]http://insidemovies.ew.com/2014/03/2...hey-cinemacon/[/url] Nolan's talked a bit more on the films tone and what inspired him to make it: [quote]While spare with the details, Nolan's new film seems to be bringing out the nostalgia in the 43-year-old director. Raised in both the U.S. and London, he remembers seeing Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey when he was 7 years old and it being an indelible experience. "I remember the feeling of magnitude and otherworldly experience. I remember the feeling of how big the screen was," he says. "I had no idea what the film meant, but I had this extraordinary time being taken away to another world." That experience clearly stayed with the director, who said he wanted to re-create the tone of "the golden age of blockbusters" that he experienced when he was a child. "Family film [back then] could be very broad-based and universal in its appeal. It's something I want to see again, in terms of the tone of the film. It's not just a film that someone watches, but has an experience. It harkens back to films I grew up with -films that took me to the place I had never imagined."[/quote] [url]http://badassdigest.com/2014/03/26/h...mentary-style/[/url] [quote]Christopher Nolan just did a 45 minute Q&A with The Hollywood Reporter's Todd McCarthy at CinemaCon and - to no one's surprise - his most common response to questions about Interstellar was "I can't say much about the movie." But he did drop a tidbit that intrigued me, and it was about how he shot the spaceship interiors. Is it news that Nolan confirmed space ships? Well, he did, and he says they built vast sets. Nolan says he prefers to go practical with sets as much as possible, and that giving people something tangible onscreen supports the VFX illusions (sorry for the paraphrasing, I didn't record the talk and am working from notes). On most movie space ship sets the windows would open up onto green screens, but Nolan didn't want to do that. The director said that he worked with the special effects team to "put reality outside the windows" of the enormous ship sets. Actors could walk around and look out the windows and see what their characters would see. "It paid huge dividends for the actors in terms of oerformance," Nolan said. But more than that having the reality outside the windows offered Nolan a choice in how he shot the scenes. "It allows cinematographer] Hoyte Van Hoytema and myself to shoot like a documentary," he explained. That means scenes on the ship could be played with naturalism instead of worrying about hitting FX marks. Nolan concedes it was tough on the FX team, who needed to have their work finished on an accelerated schedule. There was almost nothing else revealed about the film, except that Nolan is going for a tone similar to the family-friendly ("Before that became a disparaging term," he explained) all-audiences blockbusters of his youth. Star Wars came up a lot, and Nolan called it a "perfectly cinematic experience." "It's about harking back to the films I grew up with that took me to places I could never imagine," he said. He's looking to explore something simple: "The universality of human experience."[/quote] [url]http://variety.com/2014/film/news/ch...ce-1201147933/[/url] [quote]He ended speaking about the sound mix, promising theater owners and exhibitors a "unique approach" to sound mixing for "Interstellar," looking to enhance and maximize current technologies, although he wouldn't divulge how. ... At a CinemaCon lunch in his honor, Nolan said he's focusing largely on tone, calling McConaughey's character an "everyman" and describing the film as "using interstellar travel to go to other places you couldn't reach beyond normal space travel."[/quote] [url]https://movies.yahoo.com/blogs/movie-news/christopher-nolan-interstellar-wormholes-plus-5-more-things-234338424.html[/url] [quote]"He is obviously a screen legend," Nolan said of working with Caine. "I cast him in films just to have as an example to everyone else, 'If we all work this hard and this well, it's all going to be fine.' He's really a lovely guy to be around and has joked over the years that he's my lucky charm. Of course when an actor gets that in your head you have to cast him in every film, a very good strategy on his part, he's really terrific. His work in 'Interstellar,' I don't want to give away too much about it, but it's really exciting. It's just exciting to watch him do something I haven't seen him do before. You work with somebody that much every time, bringing a new situation and a new element of psychology to it with such apparent ease. He works incredibly hard but just makes it look effortless." ... "In the case of "Interstellar," [Jonah] had been working on it for years before I came on the project," Nolan said of his fraternal collaboration. "He graciously allowed me to take it and I combined it with some other things I'd been working on to sort of make it into some a little bit different. It was a pretty fantastic collaboration, I love working with him."[/quote] Twitter shit: Steven Weintraub ‏@colliderfrosty 1m Nolan says the technical presentation in theaters of INTERSTELLAR is the most challenging of all his films thus far.

Fun fact: [b][url=http://news.moviefone.com/2014/04/04/christopher-nolan-hans-zimmer-interstellar/]Hans Zimmer created the OST for this film knowing absolutely nothing about the film itself, because Nolan hasn't told him.[/url][/b] I'm okay with this, but I really hope Zimmer will break himself from Inception spell, because four or five of his last scores were literally variations on Inception one. And just to make us more in the mood I decided to paste here the best comments from last year, especially after Matthew McConaughey was announced as main character: [QUOTE=Sobek-;40127201]Oh god no not McGonorrhea... He has his place but it's not this movie, that's for sure.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=ElectronicG19;40227661]Both of the leads are actors I would consider bad. Especially the guy who's name I can't spell. Anne Hathaway was pretty good in TDKR which gives me some hope that under Nolans direction she'll be good again.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Sobek-;40228646]Both of them are just not the right actors for this film. Hate to be a negative nancy... Anne MIGHT be able to pull it off, but MugCHahinaea is an awful fit. Remember him in Contact? Remember?[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Zukriuchen;40230293]Maybe Nolan's magic of making meh actors turn good works with McNugget[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Pretty Obscure;40251671]Any credibility as an actor that Mathew McConaughey had goes right out the window when I remember that this is a thing... [t]http://images.moviepostershop.com/tiptoes-movie-poster-2003-1020478755.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Sobek-;40252844]I just don't think he's a very good actor outside of comedy and sappy rom-com / drama stuff. He's never been able to pull off a serious role that didn't have me thinking every 5 minutes about how strange he delivered X line or Y look. I don't hate him as an actor, I just don't think he'll do this movie justice, that's all. And yes, I know we have to wait for some tangible material before making that a final judgement, but I just don't see it working. Lincoln lawyer wasn't too bad I suppose. But I still felt it was lacking something that a 'better' or more suited actor could have bought to the role.[/QUOTE] It's amazing what 180-degree turn has happened during one year.
it's because we all watched true detective
[QUOTE=Joz;44468729] but I really hope Zimmer will break himself from Inception spell, because four or five of his last scores were literally variations on Inception one. [/QUOTE] [QUOTE=postal;42526930]Hanz Zimmer talked a bit about the music in an interview earlier: [quote]At the back of my mind constantly I'm inventing stuff for Interstellar. Weirdly I'm a bit ahead on that one. Circumstances beyond my control, I wrote [Nolan] a main theme in January while he was writing... There's a tune, there's a theme there. We had this sort of conversation about - you know nine years we spent in our Batman world. The textures, the music, and the sounds, and the thing we sort of created has sort of seeped into other people's movies a bit, [B]so it's time to reinvent. The endless string of sonatas need to go by the wayside, the big drums are probably in the bin. So right now it's sort of the time where I'm pondering what else we can do. Chris feels the same challenge, 'Let's do something new. We have something to say.' He really has got something to say, there's a solid backbone to this thing and it's an important story, and we want to tell it in a way that nobody else has ever done. And the same goes for the music, of course.[/B][/quote] [url]http://collider.com/interstellar-score-hans-zimmer-dark-knight-trilogy/[/url][/QUOTE]
guaranteed it will still be essentially the same shit zimmer always does
There are two problems with Zimmer. Either his scores are too bland, too generic, too forgettable, or absolutely genius - two ends of the spectrum with nothing in the middle. Other problem is that when he finally found the pattern for the great OST (strings & drums as seen in Batman trilogy and perfected in Inception) he started using it everywhere (which is weird because he had earlier some really great scores like in Prince of Egypt, The Lion King). I'm not saying it's always bad - it worked really good in those mentioned before, and also Sherlock Holmes and Da Vinci's Code. But after some time it gets stale and tiresome - like in 12 Years a Slave.
the day i call a hans zimmer score anything above sub-par is the day he puts woodwinds into his film scores
2:30 trailer will be attached to Godzilla: [url]http://emileeid.com/2014/04/25/exclusive-new-trailer-from-interstellar-to-debut-with-godzilla/[/url] Never heard of this site before, but apparently they're getting their info directly from Warner Brothers themselves, as was shown by them being spot on about inception teaser release stuff. But even then, it was always a 90% chance the trailer was gonna be attached to Godzilla. It's about time for a new trailer and that film is also being handled by Warner Brothers. Sucks I'll be out of the country then for a month but OH WELL.
About time. Second trailer is always the best for Nolan films, and it's going to be the last I will see.
Interstellar and Godzilla are the films I'm most excited for this year, in order Looks like I'm seeing them both on opening day
Doubly excited for Godzilla now.
