InterStellar 4K UltraHD [Blu-ray]

Product Information

With our time on Earth coming to an end, a team of explorers undertakes the most important mission in human history: traveling beyond this galaxy to discover whether humanity has a future among the stars. However, I do agree also with the many conversations I had about this film with my Hollywood producer over what makes a good story and how he feels the science we are assumed to know here sometimes squashes the art of telling an effective story the audience will love. We are treated to not only clips from the film, behind-the-scene stills and interviews, but also such deep dives into complex topics such as wormholes, time travel, black holes, Space-X, the future of our planet and even mention of Kepler 186F, which could be the next Earth despite it being 500 light years away.

I can already tell that even though I have five viewings of this feature under my belt, I have not even begun to scratch the surface as to how many times I’ll ingest this one on the Blu-ray format this year.

Over the past decade and a half Christopher Nolan has established himself as one of the premier Directors. I did very much enjoy learning about how all the multiple projectors were employed during the shoot to simulate the galaxy and reflections in the astronaut’s helmets. That’s all I can really ask for here is for you to have an open-mind, not closed like mine was unfortunately the first time I saw Interstellar. Ultra HD renderings like this should give fans contemplating the switch to an Ultra HD capable set up, the nudge they need. The Dark Knight Rises, admittedly had some serious flaws, but I loved it so because after all it was still Batman in the “semi-real” world.Let’s talk briefly about the plot, or how things go down, and of course what works and also what may not. I guess you could say when it blows up full screen it’s done so purposefully to propel the story forward and show you just how big and emotional the events unfolding onscreen really are by tying you in. Beginning with Memento in 2000 where we met a man who suffered from short-term memory loss, he helmed the reboot of the Batman franchise. It was cool to learn about the cooling shirts they wore underneath and the fact that they could employ the use of IMAX cameras in dialog heavy scenarios where it would normally not be feasible because there were microphones inside the headphones and the actors could hear direction within from Nolan too. Brand reveals that a wormhole, potentially created by an alien intelligence, has opened near Saturn and leads to new planets in another galaxy that may offer hope for survival.
