probably this is related to the new 96khz audio engineering tools , it allows sound designers to push the limits of dynamics...like pushing very silent recordings very loud , lets say you record an ant walking on sand and bring it on the same level with a starting jet..before 96khz sound designers had to take care about dynamics and the relation between the loudest sound and the most sublte silent sounds......now because this is a kind of new toy in the arsenal of sound design, they are overdoing it and pushing everything up constantly. i noticed the same with other films currentlyComment

Yeah this part was pretty dumb. It would make sense if she was a romantic, but she's supposed to be a scientist. Now you've got me started... here what I really hated about Interstellar:
- How could Cooper not know where Nasa is? He's given coordinates and he goes there and is still confused as to where he is once he arrives.
- When he leaves earth it's in a Saturn 5 (ish) rocket as you would expect. Yet their little ship can take off from planets on its own later without it.
- The movie takes great steps to be as realistic as possible yet Cooper almost wrecks the mission by flying wrecklessly when landing on the water planet.
- When they need to carefully navigate the wormhole Cooper gives control of the ship to TARS. Why not give it to the ship's auto-pilot instead? Even worse, the Robot TARS grabs a joystick to fly the ship. How dumb. Orbitting anything requires careful percision calculations. A machine, handling a joystick, is ... UGH....
- When Cooper asks Tars a question, Tars answers in goofy jokes instead of providing a direct answer. I know this is adjustable in its AI, but still. DUMB.
- Why bother with the whole thing about changing history books to the point where kids no longer believe people were on the moon? It's a throw-away that is never mentioned again and seems to not affect the plot in any way.
- Something explodes on Man's planet and burns with regular looking fire, yet there's not not enough oxygen to breathe, let alone allow anything to burn.

I did enjoy the Wormhole and Black hole scenes alot, and the trip through the Tesseract was extremely well done. The music was great, the FX were great, etc...Comment

It could be, but I saw MI-7 just days earlier and it sounded great. In fact it's my first choice for theatres and try to see as much as possible - this would be the first time that the sound was bad (Since Tenent, which I also saw in the theatre).
You could be right though. Even the voices seemed loud - so loud that I could swear I could hear the speakers distorting... I didn't know if I was imagining it, or if it was intentional..Comment

on the plus side of the movie. I have been thinking about the movie alot. It does have me looking more into the real story.
What an odd bunch of characters.
Freeman Dyson on Oppenheimer.
