Its time to start booking your tickets and weighing up whether or not to watch it in all its IMAX glory Interstellar is nearly upon us. As you probably know by now, the plot concerns a group of explorers who travel through a wormhole in space to seek out new habitats. It was originally a Steven Spielberg project until the legendary filmmaker moved his DreamWorks company from Paramount to Disney in 2009 and someone was required to step in. Its fair to say Christopher Nolan is, by anyones standards, a fairly decent substitute. Nolan is a director at the top of his game and is virtually peerless when it comes to big budget movies with brains; the prospect of his first proper venture into sci-fi is an invigorating one, and the fleeting footage released thus far suggests that Interstellar will be an epic experience. When it comes to anticipating upcoming films, the Internet can be a dangerous place. Not so long ago, the only place youd find a spoiler was the back of a car, whereas nowadays your chances of fully enjoying movies and TV shows can be irrevocably damaged by a callous headline or trolling commenter. Looking to indulge and share your passion shouldnt be a cyber version of Russian roulette, but such is life for movie lovers everywhere. Fortunately, thanks to Nolans ever-impressive ability to keep his films plots locked down, Interstellar has managed to keep a lid on most of its secrets, but some information has inevitably found its way into the press. If youve been dodging any and every mention of this film to avoid compromising your viewing experience, please step away from the monitor. If, on the other hand, youre chomping at the bit and have a minor itch that needs scratching, click away to discover what weve learned so far and amp up your excitement for Nolans Ninth Symphony.
I watch movies and I watch sport. I also watch movies about sport, and if there were a sport about movies I'd watch that too. The internet was the closest thing I could find.
