Have you watched Interstellar?
What did you think?
In 2067, ex-NASA pilot Cooper is forced to work as a farmer due to a global famine caused by blight. He ignores his daughter, Murph, when she claims a ghost is communicating to her through her bookshelf, but later finds dust particles forming an inexplicable pattern on Murph's bedroom floor. He investigates, arriving at a secret NASA facility where Professor Brand explains that blight, dust storms and failing crops have rendered humanity incapable of surviving on Earth. NASA's current, secret mission involves engineering a way for humans to escape the Earth while finding another habitable planet. Brand claims to be working on a gravity equation to make this possible, and asks Cooper to pilot the mission. Cooper agrees, promising a distraught Murph that he will return. He pilots a shuttle carrying scientists Romilly, Doyle, and Brand’s daughter Amelia to dock with the spacecraft Endurance. The ship is headed towards a wormhole that mysteriously appeared near Saturn decades ago.

The Endurance passes through the wormhole into another galaxy with a planetary system orbiting a supermassive black hole called Gargantua. The crew intends to investigate three planets, each previously explored by NASA volunteers, who shared positive reports for habitability. The first planet is an aqua planet with massive tidal waves and no dry land. Doyle drowns, and Amelia and Cooper fly back to the Endurance, only to find that decades have passed due to the time slippage caused by the planet's proximity to Gargantua. Romilly, having remained onboard, has aged twenty-three years. Cooper replays messages from Earth, learning that Murph is now his age and has become a scientist working with Brand.

Interstellar is one of my favorite space movies. I put it in an unofficial "trilogy" with Gravity & The Martian.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Pretty good? I think I've seen it but these space movies just kinda blend together.
