Saw it a second time, this time in Imax. Things made more sense after the 2nd viewing. Although I am still not sure how Cooper was going to get to Brand if the worm hole was closed and the Ranger had no hyper sleep capabilities??
Did the wormhole close? I thought it was just the tesseract that closed? Then again I only saw it once.
My question is where did the wormhole take them? To the center of the Milky Way?
-The Truth is Out There-
Another galaxy with a super massive black hole, I would assume at it's center since our own galaxy has one.
I think that perhaps that having the right super massive blackhole was somehow necessary to create the wormhole in the first place.
Perhaps there was no choice. Just conjecture on my part. Even pan-dimensional super science humanity probably has limits on what it can do.
Yeah, I don't see how Cooper is going to find Brand without a wormhole taking him back to the same system. Even with hyper sleep, it would take millions of years to get to her. And I didn't even hear mention of star charts being used to record the location.
TARS was reset, so unless Cooper had him download all the data back to him, I doubt the two of them could pull off a wormhole themselves.
IMO, Nolan should have left the wormhole open. I thought that's what Cooper Station was, a midpoint between humanity and Edmunds planet. Guess I need a rewatch.

I'm really not sure what movie you guys saw.
I think we have become TOO critical to the point we forget it's just a movie.
I found it to be one of the most beautiful thought provoking movies I have ever seen

Nolan, Thorne interviewed together....

I'm not as critical of the theoretical science behind the film as I am with basic character development. Any good film needs realistic/interesting believable characters. Interstellar did not have this. A few examples:
Murph being angry her dad left her as a child - Yeah, makes sense.
But then . . .
Murph at age 28, working under the man that sent her dad off planet. She now understands why her dad had to do what was necessary to save all of humanity on earth and has dedicated her life as well towards the same cause, yet she is still angry at her dad and refuses to communicate with him until the age of 28? And then she only sends him one message. It's just not logical character development.
Then, to top it off, as Murph is a happy old lady on her death bed, she claims she always knew he would come back, like she was never angry with him, and then after 5 minutes she sends him on his way. No word of his son. No hugs or any emotion at all from the extended family. Wha? Just a real strangely constructed scene far more unrealistic than any 5th dimensional black hole.
