was it TARS ? he looked like a robot who thinks for himself :D I read almost all of the article my eyes hurt. you know a movie is great when you can keep talking about it for hours.. |
I know, I have to resist the urge to go watch it again. I need some sleep though. I was up till 5am last night thinking about it.
So much easier with the blu-ray, hit extras, watch it again the next day.
TARS is a great new character. Although we can't feed ourselves in the future, we can at least make thinking robots with a great personality.
And now I need to stop googling quantum retrocausality, it's making my head hurt :)
You could explain the ending without spooky entanglement / communicating with the past. As Cooper hinted before, the last thing you think of before you die is your children. Which is exactly what he did. The 'aliens', failing before at communication, could be probing his mind for a way to get a bigger understandable message through. He demonstrates that with the watch. Then the 'aliens' replicate that using their tech. That way no cummincation with the past has to happen, no danger of time paradox, only clever manipulation by the 'aliens' They leave just enough information in Murph's room to make a lasting impact, but not enough to make him actually stay. Yet if they can manipulate and read our minds so well, why is it so difficult to send a message. Maybe they couldn't understand what data TARS needed to get, to complete the equation.
Ofcourse him being his daughter's own ghost is way more awesome :)
