That situation is a catch-22 though. If they switch to an older actor, it doesn't look like the character that we've seen for the bulk of the movie but if they put Jessica Chastain in old age makeup, it looks like Jessica Chastain in old age makeup. Either one is going to momentarily take you...

I hadn't really thought of it before but I think Interstellar was his best movie. The only things that even come close for me are Memento and Inception.

Thanks for the info. I don't think the changing AR really captures the IMAX experience but I guess it's the best compromise to be made at home.

According to Wikipedia, it was 66 minutes. Scroll down about 3/4 of the page to find 2014/Interstellar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IMAX_DMR_films Once again, it's Wikipedia so who know how accurate the info is but that seems about right to me.

As much as I liked Interstellar, I don't know if I'd want to pay to see it a third time either but I'd say this is likely to truly be your last chance to ever see it in IMAX again.

You don't think The Shawshank Redemption is the best movie ever made? :)

Personally, I want to go into a movie knowing as little as possible so I can be surprised the first time that I see it. I think it's fair to assume that most moviemakers want an audience to watch a movie and go with the story rather than thinking "I read on the internet that X is going to die...

Yeah, I stay out of a thread once the movie opens if I don't want to read spoilers. As a courtesy, I don't openly use spoilers when discussing a movie for at least the first weekend or two but after that, I think it's sorta fair game to talk about.

Nolan talks about the sound mix here: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/behind-screen/christopher-nolan-breaks-silence-interstellar-749465?utm_source=twitter

Not like I have any inside info but that'd be my guess too.

Personally, I didn't notice that but I have a buddy who saw it in a different theater and he noted the same thing.

I assumed it would just be projected on the IMAX screen just without any scenes filling the screen. Then again, you'd think I'd have learned what happens when I assume. :)

It seems like The Hateful Eight will get as big of a 70mm release as Interstellar has. Since Abrams is a big booster of film, the new Star Wars movie might get one too.

For those that saw the movie in 70mm, did they have trailers before the movie? At my theater's ticket window, there was a sign posted saying that there was no trailers before Interstellar in IMAX (presumably to let people know they couldn't be 20 minutes late) and at first, I thought that it...

That's true but looking at Box Office Mojo, it's also worth noting that those other Nolan movies are the 4th, 7th and 53rd highest grossing movies ever made so that's a tough trio to beat. Especially when you consider the competition with other holiday movies and the holidays themselves.

I can't stand how long movies are today and while this movie is long, it doesn't drag and it feels like it moves faster than many other movies with shorter run times.

Yeah, my first thought was "Wait, where'd that come from?"

I thought it was

All this time I thought I had seriously damaged my hearing by listening to the Ramones too loudly but it looks like my ears are above par. :)

That doesn't reflect what I heard but I had a great seat in the dead center of the theater. There were parts where the music was mixed high but it definitely never made the dialogue impossible to hear. I had no problem making out any dialogue (other than when I previously mentioned the handful...

What were the problems that people experienced with the sound mix?

I just saw it and I loved it. And I'm not a guy who thinks that Nolan walks on water. The only time I had some trouble hearing the dialogue is a handful of times when they were lifting off. And I took that as more of a creative decision that the characters could hear each other via headsets so...

That's why I hate numerical and letter ratings. It makes it too easy to skip to the number rather than read and think about what the person has said.

There's an IMAX 70mm screen near me that's about 30 or 40 minutes away so I'm planning on seeing it there tomorrow.
