What story did Interstellar tell? What's your reaction?

The core crisis given by the film is that because of an epidemic, all the food on the earth has been reduced, and it may not be able to feed everyone. The reduction of plants will lead to a decline in oxygen content and suffocate everyone. The solution given in the film is that if you want to emigrate to space, you need a way to control gravity. You need to solve an equation about space, which has been solved by the old professor played by michael caine. Except for a set of data, this data is called quantum data, which only exists in the horizon of black holes. According to the existing theory, this set of data cannot be obtained. This is plan a to save all mankind. There is also plan B, which is to launch the fire of human beings: 5,000 fertilized eggs pass through wormholes to a distant planet suitable for human habitation, which is equivalent to abandoning most people on the ground, leaving only the fire of human civilization. Because there was not enough food to eat, the government stopped any space exploration plan, and NASA became an underground organization, specializing in this plan A and Plan B to save the earth.

This is really a mess. . . Too many slots, the first is not enough to eat. What kind of solution is to send all mankind into space? Where there is room for food in space, its cost is much higher than that on land. Besides, won't the blight on the ground be taken into space? As for the reduction of plants, it will suffocate people, and the same is true. There is no oxygen in space, and the landlord has no extra food. Even if we want to find a livable planet, it will be easier to transform the environment of a strange planet than to transform the earth with a self-repairing ecosystem. The planet is still next to the black hole. . Therefore, what Plan A wants to achieve, the goal of saving all mankind, can only be solved by treating plant wilt, not flying into space. If space technology is used to solve the problem of human survival, then only plan B makes sense: send a handful of people, or a handful of fertilized eggs to seek vitality elsewhere and abandon the earth and people on it. Then the protagonist jumps into the black hole desperately and sends the most important quantum data to his daughter through metaphor to solve the space equation. I haven't found out what this thing is for. The film says that this data can be used to solve an equation, and then, and then? Why does it seem that all the survival crises will be solved when the protagonist returns to earth? Nolan tried to act like a hard science fiction novel and made up a lot of excuses about black holes, space and time. As a result, the main crisis settled on biology, and finally the father-daughter relationship attracted the audience's attention, and the solution to the plot conflict set at the beginning-the plant was dying-was so irresponsibly swept under the carpet. Conflict layer-by-layer transfer: plants are dying > data is needed to solve equations >; The protagonist falls into a black hole and can't go back. It's all over > we got the data and sent it back. The crisis is over!

Some people may say that science fiction movies are like this and don't need any logic. People who pursue rationality in fictional works are morbid. First of all, really good hard science fiction is not like this. 200 1 is an excellent example, in which there are very few technological injuries because of arthur clarke's cheque. Secondly, the logical harm appears in the most important drama conflict, which has nothing to do with science fiction, but is a matter of making up stories. If you tell such a story and don't pay attention to the most important conflict point, the core sci-fi idea is untenable, and the logical basis of the whole movie simply doesn't exist. Then this film is only about feelings. How much is love worth? Considering that most people haven't seen too many sci-fi works and haven't formed a hard sci-fi aesthetic concept, if they don't have a background in science and engineering, they think that the film is what it says, so the feeling of logical loopholes is not very strong, which leads to the high score of this film now. When I watched this movie, especially in the second half, it was very painful, because I liked the special effects and the actors' performances, and I was very unhappy to see them being ruined by such story logic.

Moreover, what makes me uncomfortable is that the image of researchers has been distorted again. Theoretical calculation is easy. chua chua chua can work it out with a few strokes on the whiteboard. The required data can be transmitted by Morse code. Space technology is not much different from driving a racing car. The identity of a scientist astronaut is not equal to being a good father and lover. I dare say, with the impression given by movies, the public has the idea to a certain extent that there are too many funds for scientific research, and researchers all use them to enrich themselves by eating, drinking and having fun. Why give you so much money? You can eat and drink with your brain, which is not good enough for you. To be paranoid, this is the film's extreme disrespect for scientific research, but on the other hand, people enjoy spending so much money to cool researchers. Yes, what we are building is the high-energy particle accelerator in Conan the Destroyer, which can hit anywhere and do anything. Once our lab said there was going to be a power outage, so we started the accelerator and pumped some fission elements out for lighting. Yes, we are so wild.

I try to express this discomfort by analogy, because some settings that I may not be able to stand have not affected their viewing experience in the eyes of others. Imagine that the movie you are watching tells a story: Matthew McConaughey's country is threatened by lazy cancer, everyone is lazy at home and doesn't go to work, the market stops, the financial collapse, and everyone is starving to death. Matthew McConaughey used to be a politician. Because of the epidemic, he began to work as a courier, delivering food to lazy cancer patients door to door to keep them alive. Because everyone was lazy, the government closed the financial institutions because there was no transaction anyway. Under the crisis that all mankind is dying because of laziness, Matthew McConaughey discovered the NYSE hidden in the jungle. They are planning two plans. Plan A is to inject a lot of money into the market to revitalize the whole financial system and save the world. Plan B is to send a small group of people to find a clean market that is not polluted by lazy cancer and create a new economic system there with the concept of money. As an advance team, Matt Damon first came to a savage tribe in the jungle of Papua New Guinea and sent a signal to Matthew that the market there was particularly clean and especially suitable for rebuilding a market economy system. So, Matthew McConaughey gave up the market signals sent by several other advance teams and met with Matt Damon. It turns out that the savage tribes in Matt Damon have long been in the United States, and there is no place in the market. Here, in the process of implementing Plan A, michael caine has been worried about calculating what will happen after a large amount of capital is injected. In the last step, he found that he needed a set of data to describe the upper limit of the thrust that the invisible hand could produce. This is impossible in theory, so michael caine concealed this fact and made everyone feel that this equation is still being calculated. Finally, Matthew McConaughey took the initiative to jump into a market, and let his daughter who was helping michael caine to calculate on the other side of the globe feel this strange market fluctuation with her invisible hand, so as to pass the upper limit data of the invisible hand to her daughter, solve the equation in one fell swoop, and successfully predict the result after a large amount of funds were injected into the market. Everyone is finally reunited. The end of the play.

What? . What about lazy cancer? The fundamental problem has not been solved.

A scene in this imaginary movie: Matthew McConaughey's daughter frowns and calculates the equation, and receives the data of the invisible hand from her father. Her eyes sparkled with wisdom, and she calculated on the whiteboard: "No, no, our initial assumptions were all wrong. This is the negative exponential function of e, so the integral should have a lower limit, that is, the invisible hand should have the minimum thrust instead of the maximum thrust! I solved it! Got it. ! ! ! ! "Then throw the whiteboard from the balcony in front of the general public in the sun.

In fact, the film also has some good places, such as the eschatological atmosphere created at the beginning, sandstorms and plant withering, and the government's anti-intellectual policy, which all provide a very good storytelling environment. It's just that Nolan pieced together a story about a wormhole in order to create a visual spectacle for the audience. I really like the beginning of Matthew McConaughey driving a broken jeep to kill drones. The combination of primitive hunting and high-tech prey is so beautiful. Matthew McConaughey's lander spiraled down into the atmosphere, which was the deceleration of the space shuttle's re-entry, but the film was very cool. Square minimalist robots are particularly cute. I don't know whether the shape design of this robot refers to the setting of the black stone tablet in 200 1, and whether the behavior and personality setting refer to the setting of Marvin in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Every time those square robots appear, they make me very happy. It is also the last colonial satellite in the film. It is sad that the cylindrical colonial satellite with classic status in Gundam has finally appeared on the big screen. The idea of this cylindrical colonial satellite originally came from arthur clarke.

Finally, list other minor injuries that have little impact on the main plot.

1. At first, it was a large rocket with multistage propulsion. Later, on the planet 1.2G, a landing craft was put into orbit by its own engine. Why did you use such a big rocket on the earth in the first place?

Fusarium wilt destroyed wheat, and now corn is also destroyed. It is said that all plants will be destroyed in the end. Can this disease really infect different kinds of plants?

3. The planets visited by the advance team are all near a huge black hole, so the system should be centered on this black hole and the planets revolve around it. How can a planetary system without stars be suitable for human habitation? In the surface scenes of several planets, you can see the scattered light of the atmosphere (obviously taking pictures on the earth), indicating that there are stars, so where are the stars?

4. If there is a star in this solar system, then this star is likely to form a binary star with the black hole, which leads to a problem: the orbits of the planets around this binary star system will deviate from the circle to a great extent, the distance between the planet and the star will fluctuate greatly, and the climate will be very unstable. Considering that the star is blocked by a black hole for half a year, the climate fluctuation of the planet is further aggravated, and the probability of liquid water appearing on the surface is very small. Such a planet is suitable for human habitation, and you don't believe in anything.

4.5. Speaking of a planet with water, why is the water so shallow (the character in the film is standing in the water, and the water reaches his waist) and there are waves tens of meters high? Such a high wave, traveling in shallow water, will form a lapping wave, which is seen at the seaside. The crest of the wave curled and beat down, and the big wave disappeared after filming. The waves in the film go straight ahead after the main character.

Some people say that tidal waves are caused by gravity. The wavelength of the tide is half the circumference of the earth. You can't see a water retaining wall coming, you can only see the water level rise and fall. )

5. Another question, according to the film, black holes are surrounded by luminous air masses. If this is the stellar material captured by the black hole, then these stellar materials will form a disk rotating around the black hole because of the conservation of angular momentum, instead of going around like Hada in the film. When a black hole captures stellar matter, it emits extremely strong X-rays and gamma rays. When the protagonists saw the black hole, the radiation killed them. It is impossible for a few millimeters of aluminum plate of the spacecraft to block such strong radiation.

The problem with black hole accretion disks is that the band of light produced by black holes attracting stellar matter should really be flat. But when I watched the film, I ignored the gravitational lens effect of black holes. The image of the accretion disk behind the black hole will bend and look like it protrudes from the top and bottom of the black hole.
