  I watched it because Lingthusiasm has a podcast episode about it and loved it too!

  Sapier Warf always fascinated me when I first read about it in philosophy class

    I read this stuff casually and I was generally familiar with the theories in both Arrival and Interstellar, but I couldn’t make heads or tails of either when I watched the movies. I completely missed what they were pointing at in Interstellar and thought they butchered the idea that Amy Adams was caught in her own frame of how she understood her experience of time.

    I am sure that’s my problem, but I truly wonder how anyone was supposed to appreciate the movies without internalizing the critical theories

      Interstellar was terrible.

  I’ve only watched it once, and I really didn’t like it. I feel like I need to give it another shot though.
