Christopher Nolan (Inception, The Dark Knight) bringt uns einen neuen Science Fiction Blockbuster, in dem Cooper (Matthew McConnaughey) und ein Team von Astronauten sich durch ein Wurmloch in eine neue Galaxie begeben, um ein neues Zuhause für die menschliche Spezies zu finden.
Podcast Nummer 3!
Diesmal ein etwas längeres Programm, da wir zwei große Diskussionen vor uns haben.
In seinem Regiedebut erzählt uns Wally Pfister die Geschichte von Wissenschaftler Will Caster (Johnny Depp), der zusammen mit seiner Frau Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) an künstlicher Intelligenz forscht. Als er einem Attentat der technophoben Terrororganisation R.I.F.T. zum Opfer fällt, rettet seine Frau und bester Freund Max (Paul Bettany) seinen Verstand indem sie diesen digitalisieren. Doch ist es noch Will oder schon etwas ganz anderes?
After 2012’s reboot of the Spider-Man franchise (The Amazing Spider-Man) Mark Webb returns for The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Where the first movie was trying to emulate the style Christopher Nolan’s hyper-real Batman reimagining, this movie goes full into comic book mode, boasting colorful villains, giant action setpieces and an abundance of trouble for the hero Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield).
