It sounds like a decent amount of us will be seeing Interstellar tonight in IMAX before the movie goes wide in a couple of days, and this being a Christopher Nolan film, I figured it'd be best to have a separate thread anyway dedicated to the sure-to-be-mind-bending spoiler discussion/analyzation of the plot. That way, those who won't be seeing it for a few days - or who obviously don't want to be spoiled at all - can still read spoiler-free reactions in the other thread (located here).
I've also uploaded the original Jonathan Nolan draft of the script for comparison. It might help spur a bit more discussion, and I can't wait to finally finish it myself to see how it differs from the final project...
Interstellar (2008 Jonathan Nolan Draft)
I will say that I continue to read very lukewarm reactions from people I like/trust, with only the occasional "best movie experience of the year" type tweet here and there also from trusted bloggers/critic types. So I don't know what to think. All I know is my expectations aren't near as high as they once were, but hopefully that's a good thing. I think I'm at a point where I'll be able to be completely objective, and soak it in for exactly what it is, good, bad, or amazing.
Either way, after almost two years of waiting, today is the day, and movies like this don't come around very often. That something this ambitious is finally here is worth celebrating regardless. See you guys on the other side of the wormhole...
