IMO, you should put those in spoiler tags. I quickly glanced through them and there are quite a few new details.

McConaughey: "This is the grandest adventure I think any of us will ever see on film"

Remember thats the perspective of an actor who worked on the film .

Trailer #4 has been classified: http://www.albertafilmratings.ca/recentclasstrailers.aspx

I'd guess it will be online sometime next week.

To watch or not to watch?

 

[Naked Shia]

I may not watch it. I want to be surprised.

 

[titansupes]

I 100% won't be watching this trailer.

 

[georgec]

I'm definitely watching the trailer.

Actor: "[Insert positive things about his own movie]"

fixed.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I have only seen the Comic-Con trailer once and that was when I was in San Diego at the Paramount panel so I definitely WON'T be watching that 4th trailer.

 

[Kane52630]

I'm gonna see the trailer. So far none of the trailers grabbed me, and I didn't feel the need to rewatch them.

I like the option about the sound.

I live in Nashville and as far as I know there is a film projecting IMAX theater here. It's something like one of sixty in the entire country.

I'm in Nashville too and I'm still trying to get confirmation that Interstellar is going to be shown on 70mm film.

I know they did it for TDKR, but everything since has been digital CRAP.

I called a month ago and they still weren't 100% sure.

Can't believe Nolan put Lazarus in this film but not in Batman Begins.

List of IMAX theaters updated as of May. “D” (digital only) rules out true IMAX. But if a theater can do both (“D”/“1570”) you still have to figure out which version is going to be shown.

[Kane52630]

I got 1570+DIG.

Great article, thanks for posting. It's so awesome that Kip Thorne was on set for the whole shoot as a consultant.

Undecided about watching Trailer 4. I'd honestly rather not, it's just going to be a question of will power.

I love how keenly aware Nolan is of the leverage and power he has amassed and how consciously he chooses to use that kind of leverage to make a film like this.

I also enjoyed his comment about JJ Abrams and Super 8 being more of a pastiche rather than really carrying on the tradition of what Spielberg and others used to do.

 

[jmc]

I love you Miss Hathaway.

 

[JackWhite]

I'm keeping my interest pretty low for now. Not that I don't believe Nolan will deliver the goods, but because I really want to go into this fresh.

For those of you who don't live in the Los Angeles area... I'm sorry. But here's some good news for everyone: iNTERSTELLAR has screened for a handful of journalists and filmmakers, and the early response has been absolutely ecstatic. The word is that this is not only Nolan's masterpiece, but a watershed achievement in both form and content. So get more excited, if that's possible.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

169mins? Beefy.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Agreed. TDKR is a rare instance where a story legitimately could have benefited from being 3 hours or 2 films.

Nolan's always kept his pace very tight imo. Which is quite a feat when you consider his runtimes. Nolan knows how to keep a film moving and the audience engaged.

At first that runtime gave me pause, but this isnt Michael Bay or one of his Transformer films. Its Nolan and TDKR was 165 minutes and I never felt that runtime was excessive. Its always felt too short to me. So if this film is good and has Nolan's usual pace Im gonna enjoy it and not mind the runtime.

The complete opposite really is Transformers 4. Holy hell, I had a headache and honest to god never want to watch the film again. It was just exhausting. And it was the same runtime as TDKR, but its a night and day difference

TDKR suffers from what the "Kingdom of Heaven" theatrical cut suffers from. It "feels" long, because it rushes through story beats, instead of them happening naturally, while the characters aren't as well defined as they should be. The film missing a bit of character do to the rush, like if you condensed random bits of a good book. So the film bounces around a bit, has an off putting flow and thus is less enjoyable to follow. If TDKR was 4 hours, or two films, it would "feel" shorter, even with a much larger runtime.

So the lesson they learned from The Dark Knight Rises was to make possibly a longer script and a longer movie. Nolan really is in the Peter Jackson bloat time of his career isn't he.

Well, hope it's good. The marketing has yet to amaze, though a couple of the posters are pretty decent.

Nolan is nothing like Jackson. Nolan makes his films as long as they need to be to tell the story he is telling. The exception was TDKR, where he took a 4 hour script, and made a film far too short.

Jackson bloats his films with a bunch of side stories, and irrelevant material.

Deakins is fully committed to digital, but Hoyte likes to use both formats, and it looks like they're going back to film for Bond 24.

I'll admit though, that I was kinda underwhelmed by Deakins work (so far) in Angelina Jolie's Unbroken. It looks too..flat looking.

That is Deakins work, really? Because all the footage so far has been quite disappointing.

Hear, hear.
