...ok, Michael Caine didn't age over the 30 something years - he looked the same in his first scenes as when he died.Why was Caine expecting Murph to show up so he could fly the ship?
How did Coop make the watch's second hand send the message to Murph and what was the message?
What did Murph discover that changed space travel - after all it appeared they just built space stations outside Saturn's rings, not through the wormhole. That was only a 2 year trip when Coop made it and they already had hibernation.
When Murph was on her deathbed, why didn't the rest of her family acknowledge Coop?
How did Coop know how to fly the small ship from the future?

I noticed Caine not looking older. Maybe there was no way to actually make him look older? I dunno.
I noticed the presumption on the part of Caine but didn't give it much thought. Maybe Nolan will make a movie on that: "Presumption".
The magic watch was the work of TARS I thought. Coop just had the idea. It would have been a doo-doo load of data for him to remember.
Murph corrected the gravity formula. Remember Caine faked the end of it so it would look like he was stumped. When I first saw the formula on the chalkboard I knew it was incorrect and wouldn't work.
Murph's kids didn't know that much about him. They would have been looking for some old fart.
"THEY", who Coop thought was really themselves, apparently tucked him right back into the ship. When he shook hands with Hathaway he was on his way back before he even got there.
This whole thing sets up cycles of endless repeats.
PS. Those nice space colonies couldn't possibly have accommodated billions of earth people. SO, Plan B was always in place.
...the gravity formula correction Murph discovers led to what exactly?
I got all that about Caine faking it, but unless they were going to colonize a planet in the wormhole, I don't understand the relevance of the formula to what they ended up doing just outside Saturn.
I got the part about his hand that Hathaway saw on the ship.
"They" were the beings through the wormhole living in 5 dimensions instead of our 3, who left the wormhole for them to find. Coop passed the ship (in time) as "they" were taking him to the hospital room on the new space station.
Plan B was starting a colonization with the frozen embryos and astronauts on board.
If it wasn't Plan A that happened, how did Murph and her whole family end up there?
...ok, so I figure adding the 5th dimension, gravity, to solve the equation is what allowed Plan A to progress with everyone leaving earth to the string of space stations which were created near Saturn.
The space station was spherical and the bent gravity allowed the baseball to arc up to a window at the top.
Makes perfect sense...
Ok, Coop hijacks a craft and decides to go find the apparently lonely Brand. In the next feature he will land, hook up with her, and have kids. The tentative title is: 'Insertion'.
grip in the theater. I'm gonna stay with my 7 rating I gave it at IMDB just for the effort and spectacle. But this sumbitch breaks down on close inspection.
Spoiler -
Damon's character was out of synch with the rest of the movie, kinda like Tim Robbins' character in the War of the Worlds' remake. Not as bad but the character added what exactly?

I can hear that after movies are over. Gooowleee, that was great!
...I thought Damon's character added a nice twist.Coop's bad choice was a counterpoint to Hathaway's at the previous planet (how did he survive so long without oxygen?) and provided more edge of the seat drama as Damon escapes and then they have to dock.
And it moved the plot along - not enough fuel so where could they go and what would they do next?

Dr. Mann also provided a key proof-point to Brand's thesis that love had to enter into the equation somewhere. Without love, scientists like Mann are nothing but self-serving black holes themselves.The idea that the Mann sequence was filler or just to move things along is totally wrong. The message is that it takes love to save humanity, and that's what Mann lacked.
