Prediction: Interstellar
Shiri’s Prediction: Hey. It’s Magic Mike going boldly where several more well suited actors have gone before. I am a NASA nerd. I am not opposed to a 2 hour commercial about the importance of the space program. If I’m going to watch one, however, I would rather it be a really good adaptation of The Martian or… I don’t know… not this. Grant you, this is more of a teaser than a trailer, but fuck me, that’s a lugubrious voice over. I will admit that I haven’t been one for actual drama over the last few years. I’d much rather have fun or watch shit blow up, so perhaps I’m not the best judge of a film intended to be “significant.” It may get there but the trailer makes me not care. At all. I’m going to go drink a lot of coffee and wait for my gun-toting raccoon.
Luke’s Prediction: I would love a movie made off of this trailer. An hour and a half where we inspire a whole new generation to explore space and new worlds. Colonize the rest of the solar system, and beyond. Sadly, this movie, after looking at the details that have leaked out, will not be that. Instead, it will be a highly enjoyable utter mind fuck, be prepared for the review of “Inception in space”. I have no problem with that, and I want to see that movie (though “The Prestige in space” would be even better). Nolan, for f*’s sake the man’s worst movie is either Insomnia or the Dark Knight Rises, has always delivered an interesting and compelling movie, regardless of budget. I don’t see anything here that would make this anything else.
